A bit last-minute this time, but we have a hackfest/release event coming up next weekend in Berlin feat. @postmarketOS, @p2panda, and more!
More details to follow, but here's a teaser :P

@pitermach Honest question, what's the point of VO's indentation reporting if IndentBeeper exists and works so much better?
I've turned it on for 5 minutes, then went back to good old Hammerspoon.
WorkAdventure’s David Négrier is giving an excellent talk about their journey into using Matrix behind the scenes for their product.
As the person who is responsible for onboarding new people and developers, this talk is so valuable to me!
Custom Maps Help
I've been playing around with Google Maps lately to create custom maps.
I don't like google but have no experience with any other apps and have never tried mapping of any sort before.
I'm trying to create a map layer(s) that has historic sites, stone circles, woodland, cemeteries, UNESCO sites etc. So if I'm traveling I can stop and see them.
I've created my own Google Map using lists of sites from Wikipedia. This has gone ok but leads to a lot of data cleansing and the functionality isn't great.
I've seen this website but it isn't as complete as the Wikipedia text lists ive imported: hmdb.org/
I'm completely new to this and have no experience. Are there any good resources out there for me to use or contribute to?
I'd like to de-google as much as possible.
P.S. do I need to enable developer mode or root my phone to install open street map now?
Thanks!
NAME THE MAN. I will not be surprised to learn the man is a xenophobic piece of garbage and that this attack is a direct result of the CAQ policies of hate, fear, and division in this province.

I just remembered the famous story about how the original ARM processor had extremely low power consumption by accident, so much so that it could run off leakage current. [1] I wonder if any recent ARM application processor (not a microcontroller, but something with an MMU that can run Linux) has power consumption that low. And if so, how does it fare on benchmarks?

Nicht dass ich wüsste. Wieso?
Das Einzige, was ab und an in letzter Zeit ist, sind DDoS.
Just to pick a few out of thin air. :)
If I have a well defined talk that 'm familiar with, I replace it with a 6 dot cell that fills in over the defined time period instead.
@FreakyFwoof @cachondo You could even do 6 if you removed the colons.
You could also go further and use the upper 4 dots for the time and the lower 4 for the date, assuming digits and no letters.
@cachondo I'll add to that:
Last 8 digits of a phone number / first 8 chars of a contact name, often enough to identify the caller.
First letters of a name, to identify a speaker in a meeting.
TOTP code.
Time / room (or time / beginning of name) for next appointment.
Line number of next incoming bus / tram / train.
Sometimes being a #HealthAndSafety / #IAQ advocate can feel a little lonely, but I'm an eternal optimistic – and not without reason.
When I bring air quality monitors to events, and make the data easy to access, people respond. People here at #MatrixConf have been monitoring the air quality, adjusting ventilation, and noting when things are concerning. I never even had to ask!
The trick is making the invisible visible, and giving people the tools to make informed decisions.
... and in case you're curious, here are the live data feeds for the event!

So if you're interested in an ESP32 on a multicolor printed circuit board with a touch keyboard, emulating a ZX-Spectrum, displaying it on a small LCD - Chris Greening has got you covered!
On my way to day 2 of the #matrixConf, and I'm so looking forward to a day full of discussions about the social impact of our work, how it works behind the scenes, and how projects use Matrix in their products.
And you can join the fun remotely too, at 2024.matrix.org/watch!

Inspired by Google's move to remove @organicmaps from the Playstore without warning, I finally decided to move my > 3,000 Google Maps saved places to Organic Maps. To facilitate doing this for others' benefit, I made a quick webpage to convert your Google Maps GeoJSON data to GPX and KMZ files that render well in Organic Maps.

ArcaneChat (previously known as #DeltaLab) an alternative Delta Chat client for #Android is now available in official F-Droid store!
If you already have it you can securely continue to upgrade it now from F-Droid (or #IzzyOnDroid) thanks to #ReproducibleBuilds which ensures the apk matches the source code and not me nor F-Droid is manipulating the binary 🎉

When someone is deliberately misgendered, you know it, and you tolerate it, you are contributing to the dehumanization of all trans people.
That person will learn that they can get away with it and will start to do so with other trans people, moving the bar on what they think "deserves" dehumanization to wherever is convenient.
Those watching will learn that it is acceptable to misgender people.
No. I don't care if you are marginalized. I don't care if you yourself are trans. Don't. do. it.
