#finland — Public Fediverse posts

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 📱🧠 An eight-year Finnish #study followed 260 #children to see how physical activity and #screentime related to later cognitive processing.

More screen time correlated with better #teen cognitive performance, tied to the type of screen use rather than duration. Physical activity benefits also differed by gender, with light activity helping working #memory in #girls.

In #Finland many #social and #healthcare organizations use #Microsoft forms for anonymous feedback.
Isn't that an oxymoron? The feedback is neither fully anonymous, nor does it respect privacy. I think it's irresponsible to use such services and not control which services are used/advertised in these circles.
Even the mention by participants to other participants, of these services/AI services is something that reflects and potentially endangers others.

Any nation & means everybody right now, even #Finland, that will not home all of their people just cuz they exist isn't even worth existing itself. Right now the whole #Earth can be flushed. I'm looking for that saucer going by that will give me a lift. They won't even look. Who would come here? Smh

At the Moomin Museum, there was a workshop room where everyone could make their own collage. You could choose illustrations from the book *Moomin and the Comet* and create a scene based on them, or simply do whatever you liked. I chose the scene where Sniff is talking to a cat and the waves are crashing against the rocks. I haven’t quite finished this one yet. #tampere #finland #collage #moomin #moominmuseum

I was told about a gnome from my home town that has an instagram account with a lot of photos dating back to 2014. The gnome itself is a mystery: no one knows who created it and when. The attic it was found in is almost 100 years old.

Here's the original instagram link: https://www.instagram.com/timppagram_/

but since many (including me) don't have an instagram account or don't want to visit instagram, here's a FOSS alternative frontend link: https://kittygram.irelephant.net/timppagram_
