This is Domodedovo in the Moscow region. There is also a partial power outage there. Additionally, due to some kind of accident, residents were left without water as well.

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.
And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

Feeling the @digital-science.com @altmetric.com Love, after being cited among various luminaries as part of their end of year report.

If this is already the normal procedure everywhere, i.e. a google scholar import, universities’ library catalogues will be useless tomorrow.
When viewing the fake article in Google scholar on my university network, there is a link to access the article via my uni's library. That link sends me to a library page that makes fake article appear real... Turns out library page is made programmatically from info on Google scholar 🤦

Paul Ayris and I crossed paths at three conferences, although I only knew him for the last two. In April 2018 we shared a panel at the 47th LIBER conference, and again the following Feb in Vienna at Marie Curie. He was such a delight. RIP Paul.
We are immensely saddened to hear of the passing of Paul Ayris of @ucl.ac.uk and LERU.
He was a kind, smart and dedicated voice for Open Access publishing and an accomplished scholar in theology.
Several of us got to share conference panels with him over the years. We will miss him greatly.
