Voyager@psychedelia.inkto Technology@lemmy.ml•Reddit is removing ability to opt out of ad personalization based on your activity on the platformEnglish123·2 years agoIs reddit owned and operated by a malicious entity? I used to be addicted to that platform, but now I can’t stand it.

Voyager@psychedelia.inkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you tell your significant other you want to have sex?English3·2 years agoWhy not approach indirectly like complimenting her legs, whispering “I want you” in her ear. These often work for me, and even if it doesn’t, it gets the mood between us so that we can foreplay and cuddle.
Voyager@psychedelia.inkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you tell your significant other you want to have sex?English9·2 years agoYou’re lucky to have her. I’m happy for you.

Voyager@psychedelia.inkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Whats your favorite free open source software that everyone should try?English2·2 years agoYou can start light, just by verifying that the data is up to date or adding some information eg. wheelchairs facilities or payment methods accepted. I use a tool called Every Door (Android) and it makes this surveying really simple and quick.
Voyager@psychedelia.inkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Whats your favorite free open source software that everyone should try?English4·2 years agoGive OsmAnd a try. Organic Maps are also working on the integration, but its not yet there and fully refined, though it is my preferred map for navigation while driving.
Voyager@psychedelia.inkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Whats your favorite free open source software that everyone should try?English103·2 years agoOpenStreetMap (OSM) is an open-source (open data) project. OpenStreetMap is a collaborative mapping platform that allows users from around the world to contribute, edit, and use geographical data. The data and software behind OSM are open-source, which means they are freely available for anyone to view, use, modify, and distribute under open licenses.
The data contributed to OpenStreetMap islicensed under the Open Database License (ODbL). This license allows for the free use of the data as long as proper attribution is given and any derivative works are also made available under the same open license.
I got addicted to using and contributing on OSM daily and enjoy spending my time improving the map. In fact a lot of closed source maps such as Google Maps and Apple Maps pull from some of the OSM data, so everyone gets to benefit from contributions.
In case you’re looking into this out of curiosity, check out the Beginner’s Guide and try to verify that the data around your neighborhood is correct and maybe add a point of interest (PoI) or a street name or two. Beware, it gets addictive quite fast.
OSM is also used for humanitarian use thanks to the HOT tasking platform. For example the majority of relief effort in Turkey’s February earthquake, Sri Lanka flooding, and the recent Marocco earthquake. Mapping can literally help save lives. It’s fun and easy too!
What specifically do you like about Winamp? I miss the whacky skins and even more so the Milkdrop 2 visualization system. There are some hacky ways to get it to work for Foobar or AIMP. I haven’t checked what’s the case for Linux media players though.
