@pietervdvn The GPX format was chosen because OsmAnd and Locus Map can import them. With the mobile apps we can map while walking around outside.

The data source is stolpersteine-berlin.de/. Because of it having no explicit licence, some typos and inaccurate positions we cannot import it or use it for online editing. MapRoulette and MapComplete don't have IRL mapping editors, right?

All the energy used, all the carbon emitted, all the e-waste created and still every chatbot has the "anything this thing says might be false, you still need to check" label all over it.
I cannot believe the resources we are spending on this bullshit instead of doing literally anything else.

Generative AI not only consumes a lot of energy, it's also likely to produce a lot of electronic trash. According to researchers, the total amount of global e-waste could grow by the alarming factor of 1.000 in only 5 years.

@cachondo The first version of Windows to really lean into Theming including sound schemes was 95, specifically with the Microsoft Plus! pack which was sold separately, though the base installation did include a few sound schemes on its own like Utopia, Musika, Jungle and Robots. Windows 98 had its own version of plus, which included a unique set of themes different from the 95 ones, but the base installation also included the sound schemes I listed above.

I remember David Graeber's insight into #voting being a big 'Aha' moment for me:

"Majoritarian democracy was, in its origins, essentially a military institution. . . .

"It is of obvious relevance that Ancient Greece was one of the most competitive societies known to history. It was a society that tended to make everything into a public contest . . . So it might not seem entirely surprising that they made political decision-making into a public contest as well. Even more crucial though was the fact that decisions were made by a populace in arms. . . . [I]f a man is armed, then one pretty much has to take his opinions into account. . . . [E]ven if the vote was 60/40, everyone could see the balance of forces and what would happen if things actually came to blows. Every vote was, in a real sense, a conquest." #history #politics #democracy

I don't see any reason that #SesameStreet can't be in the same universe as #DoctorWho.

Doctor Who Had a Secret Spinoff All Along โ€“ It's Sesame Street!

We're celebrating the anniversary of Sesame Street, which is as much an institution to Americans as Doctor Who is to the British, and guess what? The two series are linked in ways we โ€“ or their creators โ€“ never realized.

For those on the Beta / RC branch, we have also pushed a Release Candidate build of 2024.4.1 for you - note this is identical to the 2024.4.1 from yesterday, but will keep you on that path so you'll be the first to get NVDA 2025.1 Beta 1 when it comes out in time.

Making blind accessible video games has been truly life changing, and it all started with making a game for a blind accessible game jam. I learned so much about accessibility, met wonderful people, was exposed to video games made in new and wonderful ways, and felt inspired in new ways to be creative. So that's why I help a yearly jam all about blind accessibility in video games, and I genuinely hope anyone reading this considers joining. itch.io/jam/games-for-blind-gaโ€ฆ #indiedev #Blind #gaming

@Thumper1964 @technocounselor I donโ€™t go to Amazonโ€™s website unless I really have to, but this time I did, I was rather surprised. Itโ€™s a sacred cow for Amazon, so no wonder the accessibility improvements have been so slow and rather sporadic.
Anyway, happy to see any improvement bit coming along our way!
