I heard today in a talk that the average #salary in #Kenya should be EUR 300 - 500 ... knowing Kenya well, i could not recognize that.
The explanation? "Average salary" is measured among those with jobs in the formal sector - which is ... 17% of those in workforce.
The reality for the vast majority is way lower.Some data:

My university uses #Geoblocking of known evil countries.My university uses #Geoblocking of known evil countries.
#Geoblocking is a very sensible and appropriate security measure, as it ensures that
only those with evil and hostile intentions get to your sites -
because for those, geoblocking is easy to circumvent -while all normal naive believers in global connectivity - such as scientists, academics, students - are left out.
I commend the use of #geoblock

Very happy to be working with my friend and colleagues in #Nepal againVery happy to be working with my friends and colleagues in #Nepal again.
Our oldest memories go back nearly 20 years, when we deployed #wifi in the #himalaya - two old pictures included.#mastodon presence in #Nepal still small (i guess) (pls shout if you are in Nepal!)
and anyway this post would be invisible to them, as my university has a #geoblock against all of Nepal ... duh

"It's a bit shocking to note that #pornographic videos make up 98% of the #deepfake material currently online and 99% of that imagery is of women and girls.""

i m not sure i had seen this before -the links service on #truthSociali m not sure i had seen this before -
the links service on #truthSocialhttps://links.truthsocial.com/
being used for #phishing campaigns,
with (rather good) complete copies of danish web/#dns service https://one.com , encouraging me to renew my #domains there.
such usage kinda fits the site's owner.
not sure it makes sense to send complaints to them ... -
