dw_maintenanceHappy Saturday!
I'm going to be doing a little maintenance today. It will likely cause a tiny interruption of service (specifically for www.dreamwidth.org) on the order of 2-3 minutes while some settings propagate. If you're on a journal page, that should still work throughout!
If it doesn't work, the rollback plan is pretty quick, I'm just toggling a setting on how traffic gets to the site. I'll update this post if something goes wrong, but don't anticipate any interruption to be longer than 10 minutes even in a rollback situation.

“I’m personally invested in any kind of AI research that isn’t a critique of current AI systems but is the development of new ones, so generative research that engages with Indigenous methods and produces new ideas.”

More than 20 tribal nations welcomed more than 1,500 buffalo back to their lands last year as part of a growing national effort to restore the animals to Indigenous stewardship, according to the InterTribal Buffalo Council.
ITBC coordinated the transfers with support from The Nature Conservancy, the National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Denver Mountain Parks, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and The Wilds in Ohio. The work expanded a tribally managed herd network that now includes more than 25,000 buffalo across 22 states.
As a keystone species, buffalo have a tremendous impact on their ecosystems. Restoring them is a great way to improve habitat.
