On Slavic layouts, the right Alt key (AltGr) lets us type symbols like [
, ]
, {
, }
, &
, ,
#
, ×
, ÷
, €
, đ
since 0-9 is for diacritical letters by default and numbers with Shift. Still, Czech Windows users mostly use Alt codes, which is a point of friction when switching to Linux. But there, I’m happy with how I can customize the AltGr and the new AltGr+Shift layers with curly quotes, em dash, nbsp, hair space, arrows, middle dot, pi (π), pretty pi (𝛑), mu, Omega etc. My Compose key is RCtrl.

ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.orgto No Lawns@slrpnk.net•I enjoy seeing grassy tram tracks, but is there something even better we could grow between rails?English2·17 days agoUnlike solar roadways, this actually makes sense. Lots of tram systems also use DC, eliminating the need for inverters. And yes, panels are so cheap it’s not too bad that they’re horizontal; vandalism is a greater issue.

ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Lets contribute to OpenStreetMaps!English2·28 days agoIt’s very similar to Wikipedia. Changesets can be filtered by multiple criteria such as geographical area, added/changed/deleted item count, software, declared sources, comment or account age. Moderation tools are mostly open source but by community members (not OSMF themselves), such as OSMCha.
ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.orgto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Lets contribute to OpenStreetMaps!English2·28 days agoBe careful though: Pokémon Go players are known to have vandalized OpenStreetMap. Since the game uses it for the background map and for spawning Pokémon in thematic locations, they would create fake miniature parks, lakes etc. near their homes.

Locals also get drunk but they’re not nearly as obnoxious.
Can you even ping it?
ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are some places in Europe with a low price level and worth traveling to?English1·1 month agoIt’s prohibited to sell highway vignettes for more than what the state charges on the official website (which is not a lot) but the scammers in border regions obviously found ways around that by charging huge service fees for an automated process (other than typing a licence plate) or using a ridiculous € conversion rate, and marking their shack more prominently than the official vending machines found on all highways close to border crossings. Not a great first impression for visitors!
ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there any way to use reddit in the same device where I'm IP banned?English8·2 months agoClear cookies to log you out? The account is as good as banned, anyway (can’t access via your IP cuz that’s banned, can’t access it via another IP cuz you said that would get it banned). Back up your data using tools like bdfr and GTFO. You can also use shreddit to both archive and overwrite your posts and comments (perhaps with links to your Lemmy account, as I did - I give people any of my deleted Reddit content they ask for here).
But how about another, non-VPN IP? Check your IP and try unplugging your modem for a few minutes, this could make your IP lease expire and the ISP issue a new one.

Also, it’s GitHub celebrating. That’s as if PornHub celebrated 40000 years of porn.
It’s not about verification but accessibility
