I've recently taken to adding a direction tag to benches in #OpenStreetMap. My convention is that the tag value corresponds to the direction of view.

Delighted to find that @vespucci_editor now shows (single) direction values, but wished I'd known about the whizzy direction tag gadget which uses the phone's compass yesterday. (It's a bit too clever if adding the values in retrospect.)

This was the culmination of years of reading about ecology, collapse, and low tech, + my experience sailing on historical ships 100 years old.

Please enjoy @pluralistic Cory Doctorow's fantastic presentation on taking back the internet from last month at #DEFCON32. Cory's takes are always thoughtful, provocative and it was his deshittification concept that helped inspire the DC32 theme. More videos from #defcon coming soon. As always, pass it on.

September 16, 2024- Time Magazine: “Did the Pandemic Break Our Brains?” “COVID-19 has been linked to serious cognitive problems, including dementia and suicidal thinking. And brain fog, a common symptom of Long COVID, can be so profound that people are unable to live the lives and work the jobs they once did.” “.. leading hypotheses suggest that SARS-CoV-2 may cause persistent inflammation in the brain, damage to blood vessels in the brain, immune dysfunction so extreme it affects the brain, or perhaps a combination of all the above. Studies have even found that people’s brains can shrink after having COVID-19, a change potentially associated with cognitive issues.” - time.com/7021575/covid-pandemi…

🎑 中秋節快樂 🥮
추석 잘 보내세요
Chúc Tết Trung thu

The 15th day of the 8th month in the Chinese lunisolar calendar marks the #MidAutumnFestival, when families from East Asia gather to enjoy gazing at the full moon 🌕. This year, it falls on September 17.

While the #MoonCake is a shared tradition among many East Asian cultures, others like barbecue and pomelo is unique to #Taiwan.

As I have abandoned Android and am now daily-driving Gnome mobile / PostmarketOS on my OnePlus 6, I feel the urge to contribute to filling the app gap. Nobody seems to have asked for an app to record push ups and track progress, but that's what I want to accomplish now. Here are some first impressions of my Libadwaita app, which I call "Pushup Sessions":

📣 Join us Tomorrow! Explorer Town Hall: Meta Ray Bans Integration

Tuesday, September 17th | 5:00 PM PDT
Where: In-app, Zoom, Youtube

Join Aira's Meta Ray-Bans Glasses Town Hall to get the latest updates on our integration progress, upcoming beta launch, and Aira's continued commitment to exploring innovative smart glasses solutions. All explorers are invited to attend and will have access to this event through the Aira Explorer app (“more,” “events”) or directly via zoom.

Zoom link: aira.zoom.us/j/88931260595#suc…

*Event recording to be posted on our YouTube channel*

Facebook Event: facebook.com/share/cS2zC9W4kxk…

Shout out to AccessNow folks and @Xeniax who helped to convince Meta to unblock #deltachat invite URLs in Facebook. Previously delta invite-links on Facebook were marked as "dangerous" and didn't work.

sidenote: if you send someone an invite-link, they can click it directly after they installed Delta Chat because they will be guided through the "create-profile" flow automatically and then be dropped into a chat with the inviter.
