Interesting to see a client with an non hostile algorithm. It would be cool if algorithms where separate the clients and you could choose to use Quiblrs sorting method on another app.

I get this reference

My Dad had an Amstrad that you had to lift the cover up and put your hand on the 3.5 floppy dribe to make it work. We had a game called ‘Magic Carpet’ or something. Later we got a Windows 3.5 computer back when it booted to DODS amd you ran Windows from a command. I remember playing Prince of Persia and a game called ‘Cosmos Comic Adventures’

Car sickness while eating a blueberry nutrigrain bar and now I can’t eat anything with cooked blueberries. I used to love eating blueberry muffins.

Seems reasonable to change your first name to make your life more convenient, but unless people encounter these names, they’ll never used to saying them.

In the UK it takes knowledge to know how to pronounce Irish names but one you’ve met a few Siobhans and Eoins you get used to it.

There is an element of historical oppression here though. Some people choose to use an Irish spelling because, well, the English keep trying to erase other cultures. That example didn’t work out as well as I thought it would.

Is sci-fi because of Wesley Crusher from Star Trek

They chose not to after researching options. Pretty sure they decides account portability was a key feature needed and AP doesn’'t do this. As in taking your account and all your posts and data witj you to a new server. I assume there is a technical reason why this would be very difficult to add to AP/Mastodon otherwise they could have just added it themselves.

How does someone inflate their knees?

I just finished The Disposessed and found it critiqued both the capitalist and anarchist society. The people of Annares have simple happiness, but they starve and strive to keep the society alive. It’s also very explicit that it only works because they don’t uphold their anarchist ideals and coerce everyone into work through social pressure.

I think a film would work and would present a “you could have a different society, but it would never be a paradise” type idea.

I manage to live without Amazon. I just pretend it doesn’t exist, I don’t know if it’s cheaper or quicker on Amazon as I don’t see it (I use a search engine that can block results). It’s also probably other aspects of my life that also make it possible, spare money, spare time, no kids, live in a city.

What a relief. What I was dreading was that it was parody and M$ had added this to Windows 11.

I think the reason Gnome is good is the same thing that makes them insufferable. They believe there is a right way to do things, sometimes those are things you like, sometimes they aren’t.

Is this a joke?

I’m interested in a framework laptop for the environmental perspective, but I also think a pre-owned high end device would be faster and with smaller impact.

Ross Nobel has a surrealist ability beyond all others, delivered in a geordie accent makes it perfect.

It’s not a remake, it’s a prequel. So you should definitely watch the film.

These things crave attention. It will be loving getting this social media clout. I heard the most tortuous thing you can do to these monsters is put it outside and forget about it. They HATE the silent treatment.

Just in case you did, don’t get started with ‘Vespucci’ it’s aiming to be a tool for people already deep into OpenStreetMap. I’m three years in and it baffles me frequently. StreetComplete is amazing and Every Door and OSM Go! Are very usable. If you’re on iOS, this whole post is irrelevant. I’ve not used those apps.

Get started with the ‘edit’ button at OpenStreetMap.org. There is a Portuguese community, but I’m not sure where they are most active https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Portugal

Have you already used the ‘give feedback’ button on Google Maps? I think that’s the limit of what they offer. I’ve heard rumour that adding a business at your address makes it much more findable on Google Maps. But that might be adding misleading information. If Google started using OpenStreetMap data (they probably already do) they would have to attribute the data to the project. The big online shop named after a river has their drivers use OSM maps and they will add your driveway to the map etc themselves sometimes. So your additions to OSM will help you get some deliveries more reliably.
