  1. @roomaroo @Edent On #Eurostar, you just head to the on-board cafe. They sell both the #Paris cardboard #Navigo preloaded with 2 metro trips at cost plus about €2 fee, and #London plastic Visitor #Oyster cards at what seems to be a usual high fee of £10.50. They really should put this on the announcements more clearly but I wonder if they couldn't cope with how many people would want to avoid the awful ticket offices in both cities!

  3. @edavies @theolodian @Edent well, the 5yo would travel free with an adult in #London on buses, trams, tube, DLR, overground, Elizabeth Line and some rail services. The 12yo can get a Zip Oyster if you buy ahead, or an Oyster smartcard with "Young Visitor" discount set for two weeks at a time, but it's often a pain in the neck to visit one of the 16 stations with a #TfL office or centre to set it, and it takes a while to outweigh the £10 charge for a new #Oyster card. It really should be simpler.

    How do #animals #aggregate?#Mites can find each other based on #pheromones, while #sight is important for herd-forming #mammals. In #marine #habitats, #hearing plays a major role. D.McAfee et al.(2022) showed that #oyster #larvae react to the #soundscape of a healthy #reef via #statocysts in front of their bodies, thus finding their adult conspecifics for #reefformation. Reef formation can be artificially #stimulated via artificial #soundwaves.

  7. "The event is also a kind of contest, complete with a WrestleMania-style gold belt for the elected official who eats the most oysters. Delegate Mike Webert made the belt after his first win four years ago and he’s carried with that honor the chance to announce the new winner even since" #oyster #SaveTheBay #VAPol wvtf.org/news/2026-02-18/oyste

  13. Augen auf beim Download!
    In einer neuen Malvertising‑ und SEO‑Poisoning‑Kampagne, die vom Conscia’sForensicInvestigation-Team oder auch Blackpoint‑SOC entdeckt wurde, bewerben Datenhaie eine gefälschte Website, die erscheint, wenn User:innen z. B. in Bing nach „Teams download“ suchen. Die Original-MS-Website wird imitiert und auch die Downloaddatei sieht zunächst "normal" aus. Doch der Installer verbreitet das Oyster‑Backdoor‑Tool auf Windows‑Geräten und verschafft Angreifern Fernzugriff auf infizierte Geräte, sodass diese Befehle ausführen, weitere Payloads bereitstellen und Dateien übertragen können. Die Angreifenden zielen in erster Linie auf Firmennetzwerke.
    In diesem Fall wurde durch die Attack Surface Reduction (ASR)‑Regeln von Microsoft Defender der Angriff neutralisiert: Die Malware wurde daran gehindert, Kontakt zu ihrem Command‑and‑Control‑Server herzustellen.
    Auch wenn dieser und ähnliche Angriffe abgefangen werden konnten, muss doch mit weiteren Varianten gerechnet werden. Daher gilt:
    Download von ausführbaren Dateien nur von der Originalquelle oder sorgfältig geprüften vertrauenswürdigen Hubs (z. B. große Verlage mit digitalen Portalen). Prüfen Sie Links wohin diese führen, bevor Sie klicken.

  17. Increasingly Acidic Seas Threaten #Oyster Farming
    Researchers and hatcheries are exploring new ways to protect #shellfish in the #Pacific Northwest, although Trump budget cuts may thwart their efforts.
    Eighteen years ago, farmed oyster larvae began disappearing in mass die-offs, mystifying hatchery managers in the Pacific Northwest and threatening a thriving part of the region’s economy.
    Up to 90% of the farmed Pacific oysters were being wiped out.
