Not sure about performance on an X220, but I've loved Fedora workstation edition. The default Gnome setup is pretty user-friendly in my opinion, a there's a decent amount of support to be fo…

And it updates map data every two weeks, so you can actually experience map improvements in your area!

Another similar tool that may be of interest is mcfly https://github.com/cantino/mcfly

I spend extra for a business connection. It's not for everyone, but if self-hosting is important to you it adds some assurance of reliability (and a static IP!)

While we're on the topic, in Python there's a nice way to deal with this: os.makedirs(path, exist_ok=True)

What has happened with Mastodon recently feels like a great thing for the fediverse. Many of these platforms are still working out their implementation kinks, but they aren't babies anymore. Just…

I understand why the marquee element is deprecated, but I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for it. When I was in middle school I spent a lot of time geocaching, and the first person to find…

ngl I think they are broken for me on Firefox for Android. Glad they are working for you

This is the beauty of OSM! Editors can prioritize what type of data they want to help improve. Some people are focused on wheelchair accessibility data, others on landuse, etc.

This is the way. I had a lot of success using Mock Location for a mapping project this spring. I'm pretty sure mapping applications have to explicitly allow it, though. For some reason Google Map…

osm2pgsql makes it surprisingly easy to spin up your own tile server using OSM extracts

Yes 100%. The U.S. has a scary apparatus of control and oppression directed at women, queer, LGBTQ+ folks. Even in the age of the internet, it feels like we take more steps back than forward...

Yes, there are alternative schools out there. They are increasingly rare though. I was lucky enough to end up at one and it was fantastic. As another commenter noted, it's the privileged kids who…

I agree with you. I enjoyed this Vox video about how the British Museum holds many artifacts that were stolen. [0] https://youtu.be/hoTxiRWrvp8 …

I'd be down!

This is fantastic work! One thing I've been trying to accomplish on my own site is embedding others' HTML fragments along with CSS and/or fonts. I reckon there would be sanitization con…

And shout-out to you, Neil, for maintaining a lovely HTML parser for Racket. You recently pushed an update to help me with a project of my own.

Let's change the HN post to link to this, it is much more informative.

IMO Firefox on an Android is better than anything you can get on iOS. It fully supports uBlock Origin! I also use a Pixel phone, though I use LineageOS so I feel less tied to Google

Same, I just keep getting redirected to the homepage after login

The direction of that roundabout might be mis-tagged on OpenStreetMap. Would you be comfortable sending me the location, so I can see about fixing it?

Same on an Android

This is why I enjoy using Letterboxd. It's a social media silo with its own problems, but overall I find it more enjoyable because everyone is there for one reason: to talk about movies they'…

I love it too. It works so well on my machines. I hope it sticks around

> there are absolutely people that fit so-called unrealistic body standards This statement represents a common misunderstanding of what body standards are. Our culture is a toxic environment for wo…

I may have misunderstood the article, but by the end I think they were writing directly in groff.

I've been loving mcfly[0], a history search that can be bound to <ctrl+r>. It makes suggestions based on your current directory as well as your command history. [0] https://githu…
