Ici j’ai dessiné un paille-en-queue et j’ai choisi de tout colorier en bleu 🦋
C’est un oiseau de mer qu’on retrouve notamment à La Réunion 🇷🇪
Il est magnifique avec ses deux longues plumes très fines qui forment sa queue.
Évidement il avait toute sa place dans mon cahier de coloriage 🖍️
Bei der ‚Farbe Pink‘ fällt mir sofort der Purzelinenpulli ein, mit dem man sie am Strand auch auf 300 m locker erkennt 😅

Gaza’s youth are strong, but we are exhausted. We didn’t just lose homes and neighborhoods, we lost time and hope. Many friends who once had big dreams now sit at home with nothing to do. Some try to study on their own, but most of us are focused on surviving day by day.

![@Lambo The image is a screenshot of a text excerpt from a document discussing DNS-based filtering of educational domains. The text is in English and is formatted in a standard paragraph style. The first line of the text is bolded, indicating the title of the section, "Educational domains." The text discusses a report from 2002 by Zittrain et al. [95] about DNS-based filtering of several institutions of higher education in the US, including mit.edu, umich.edu, and gwu.edu. It notes that while "education" is not one of the top censored categories, numerous education-related domains are blocked, such as armstrong.edu, brookings.edu, citizenlab.ca, feitian.edu, languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu, pori.hk, soas.ac.uk, scratch.mit.edu, and cs.colorado.edu. The text explains that although censorship against some of these domains is not surprising, the blocking of cs.colorado.edu is puzzling, as the University of Colorado's computer science department is not currently using this domain to host their homepage. The blocking of this domain and its entire namespace * .cs.colorado.edu would prevent students in China from accessing other department resources, such as moodle.cs.colorado.edu. The text concludes by stating that this is evidence of the overblocking policy of the GFW, especially during the difficult time of the COVID-19 pandemic when most students need to take classes remotely.
