There was post made in recent weeks on the Gnome Accessibility blog about the work they'll doing over the next year. Sounds like it's being spearheaded by someone quite capable, with a strong vision: https://blogs.gnome

I got an iPod last year and have been really enjoying what's possible with them. Using rockbox opens up a lot of features, especially usb file transfer and flac. I've gone so far as to make my own themes to build upon the old UI

It's the current government that is the major issue with the country right now. They're unpopular, figuratively and literally. In the last election, they got very few of the first votes, and they were only able to get into power w

It's really quite a shame how few options there are for buying music, especially with apple music no longer allowing to buy stuff. I recently got into Japanese classic city pop, and was surprised to find that there were several japanes

Wow! What a list! I'd love to see more people make lists like it. I'll have to give the book a check too, thanks for sharing!

Do you have any write-up about your setup? I've been interested for a while in self hosting myself at home, but things like security and such are quite confusing and conflicting at times, I find.

Surprisingly not, you can easily transfer your followers and follows. Even your bookmarked posts can be saved and transferred. You do lose your old posts you've made, but in the grand scheme of things that's not the worst loss

Reminds of Maths class in school when our teacher got us to try visualising and manipulating a 3D object in our mind. Very few were able to do it, which surprised me a lot.

I think the support has a lot to do with just how transparent Panic have been about the entire process. You can see a lot of people being able to emphasize with the human element behind the product and the company.

Organic Maps has been my go to maps since it came out. Fantastic navigation features, and felt no different than using Google Maps. The best part? It doesn't any internet connection to work!

And the acquisitions begin. It's clear they're ready to throw big money at making this "metaverse" a thing. They're probably trying to prove to their investors that they're comitted

I think one possible downside is the amount of major datacenters in such a small space. It's about 7 or 8? And you've got Facebook, Amazon, Google the likes. Recently there was almost a blackout in the city cause the grid just cou

Heck, I know they're hybrids but just look formula one. The total emissions of every car, from all sessions at every single race in a year combined produce less emissions than a one way flight from London to New York. Which is then com

I live in Ireland. A while after GDPR came into effect, I went about deleted a Microsoft account I didn't use anymore. Deleted it on the site, contacted support to request all data be wiped. Done. About 3 years later I get an email tha
