Recently I learned about TouchMapper: Create tactile maps easily for any address. They use #OpenStreetMap to create printable 3D models of an area, for people with no/bad vision to literally get a feel for the place. I love the initiative! https://touch-mapper.org/en/ #maps #accessibility #inclusion #vision #3dprinting #AwesomeStuff

Touch Mapper - Tactile Maps for the Visually Impaired

Tactile maps easily for any address. 3D-print them yourself or order.

RE: @randahl@mastodon.social

Mastodon is awesome. I can't understand why the others don't have editing capabilities.

Got your art stolen by AI companies? Check out this video, as El Estepario Siberiano is organizing action against that. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/19xS9YLOBYk

The effect of blocking AI crawlers on Blender's infrastructure. This is the CPU usage graph.

So many AI bots are crawling Blender's infra all the time. Just do a git clone and investigate local files. It's way faster (also for the AI users themselves) and doesn't block actual Blender development (it got that bad).

Today, 23 April, is International Pallas’s Cat Day. A day dedicated to raising awareness of the Pallas’s cat, also known as the Manul.

This animal, which looks so very different from other felines, has a special place in our hearts. I think it’s absolutely adorable! 😻

3 May: International Leopard Day. A day that draws attention to the leopard. Although an all-rounder, this animal is increasingly under pressure. Including due to poaching because body parts are sought after in traditional medicines.

Anyone who is about to complete, or already has completed, an age-verification or identity-verification process online should read this short article. Especially if it's on LinkedIn or Discord. "I Verified My LinkedIn Identity. Here's What I Actually Handed Over." by @thelocalstack@mastodon.socialhttps://thelocalstack.eu/posts/linkedin-identity-verification-privacy/
THE LOCAL STACK

I Verified My LinkedIn Identity. Here's What I Actually Handed Over.

I wanted a blue badge on LinkedIn. To get it, I gave a US company my passport, my face, and my biometric data. Then I read the fine print.

Let's all convert to paceometers, showing minutes per 10 kilometer, instead of kilometers per hour.

@metin@graphics.social I find it weird that https://european-alternatives.eu doesn't have a category for creative software. I'd suggest it to them, but then you need to create an account first 😿

Replying to
@ejner1@toot.community @metin@graphics.social Is it necessary to get so specific? I mean, Blender is also used for 3D printing, medical visualisation, and pizza designing, just to name a few examples. It's definitely not limited to filmmaking.

@ejner1@toot.community @metin@graphics.social 'Graphics' could be a good category for sure. As for non-EU software in the same category, Procreate is from Australia. GIMP originates from the US, but as it's Open Source and developed by a wide range of developers, I don't know if it's fair to put it in the list as "from the USA".

Replying to
@metin@graphics.social @ejner1@toot.community Blender originated in NL, and Blender HQ is in Amsterdam, so I’d put Blender on the list. Krita is also based in NL. That’s the kind of creative software I was thinking about. Thanks for the offer, appreciate it!

@ejner1@toot.community @metin@graphics.social btw, it looks like you set your language setting to Dansk, even when writing in English. I'm not bothered, but it might be something to keep an eye on, as it does mess with the 'Translate' link under each message.

@bnut Dude, chill. That you were talking only about the post was clear (to me, anyway) after you edited it, not before. I just wanted to give you the nice prospect that the final result will likely be amazingly colourful. We all have something to look forward to!
