Traveling on larger roads with no footway might be an option to move fast, though it can be quite risky if there is a lot of traffic.
Alternatively, there are less traffic heavy options like service, residential, track, path, etc. options. By these cases the surface can become an inconvenience factor like a muddy or an overgrown track/path.
#DailyBloggingChallenge (280/300)
There are definitely much more examples until one gets to highways.
Although most highways are more convenient than the previous mentioned examples, one factor one needs to consider by them is personal safety factor.
#DailyBloggingChallenge (279/300)
Depending on the season farmland can be either more or less convenient than a forest. The same can be said for heath, grassland, or meadow.
Scree, rock, and sand depends if an incline exists as an inconvenience factor.
#DailyBloggingChallenge (278/300)
The least convenient for most is water crossings; anything from large bodies of water like lakes or rivers all the way down to ditches or wetlands.
Next would be either a man-made barrier like a wall or building or a plant matter wall like scrub.

Let us take the case that one is planning to explore a new region via foot using #OpenStreetMap data. Then what should be the first amenities that should be mapped?
The first amenities should be anything that inconveniences travel while being outside of one’s comfort realm.
@freeschool this
> a payment on a house already paid many times over and over by different people and pure profit
is one of the topics in the book.
The book is a philosophical approach of question if property is a right (which it is not).
In the end all property/possessions are being temporally lent and eventually will be bought/taken by a new owner.
It has some interesting views like that renters are slaves since they maintain the property, but don't get any profit if the owner sells any of the goods produced from the property.
And taxes are basically a way the nation controls your rent agreement on the property.

To extract the icon copy the outer #HTML (clip) of the embedded #SVG and save it in such a file.
Via the #terminal
echo '<clip>' > icon.svg
Open the newly created SVG with #Inkscape and modified as desired and extract as #PNG (alpha values required). Optionally instead WEBP or AVIF can be used.
#DailyBloggingChallenge (275/300)
Let’s we want to create a shortcut to #Odysee using #Firefox and #Alacarte. Then the command is
firefox https://odysee.com/
The icon can either be found on the web or directly extracted from their website.
@freeschool have you read the book “What is property” by Pierre-Joseph Proudhon.
@bibliolater if one assimilates numeracy with numerics then one is only covering a small portion of maths. The world of analysis and algebra is missing, which as the article mentioned is used in other sciences.
#DailyBloggingChallenge (274/300)
Due to the execution via the #terminal one can directly use #Alacarte to make shortcuts to web applications.
All one needs is the execution code for the browser like firefox
for #Firefox and the location of the #WebApp.
firefox <location>
#DailyBloggingChallenge (273/300)
Do you know of #Alacarte the menu editor for #GNOME?
It is practical in renaming and/or hiding/adding new items to the menu.
One thing one will notice when making such an item is that the execution is done via the #terminal.

One nice thing that #Gimp provides is the option to crop all layers at once. This can also be done with #FFMPEG to crop the output.mp4.
Just follow this guide: How can I crop a video with ffmpeg
Gimp or any other image editor app can be used to get a reference area for the crop area.
Hypothetically one combine step 265 and this one in one command.
#supertuxkart is looking for artists to speedup level design an revamp for the Version 2.0

#DailyBloggingChallenge(271/300)
One would have hoped that one came full circle, though one came fully around with less data than before.
Let’s start again from the beginning and use the method described in 265 without using #Gimp. The only thing that is required is that the file names are in consecutive order. This can be done via
ls -1prt | grep -v "/$" | cat -n | while read n f; do mv -n "${f}" "$(printf "%06d" $n).${f#*.}"; done
#DailyBloggingChallenge(270/300)
The issue with this approach is that when extracting the frames via #ImageMagick one will only get the changes and the rest will be the alpha channel.
Thus when building the MP4 with #FFMPEG won’t look as expected.
One could go back in #Gimp and merge each frame to the base layer (the first frame). Or just use the reference images.
#DailyBloggingChallenge(269/300)
One option to handle the #WEBP case is to follow this guide. There are some modification that should be taken.
First extract the frames using #imagemagick
magick input.webp frames.png
Then use #FFMPEG to build a MP4 video from the extracted frames
ffmpeg -r 1 -i frames-%0d.png -c:v libx264 output.mp4
I'm working on adding a CLI toolchain to #Fedify to help with debugging. The first feature I implemented is the ActivityPub object lookup.
Here's a demo.
#DailyBloggingChallenge(268/300)
Not only do #WEBP have the animation halt in the #Fediverse though so do #GIF.
To overcome this issue, one can convert the specific file extension to a MP4.
For GIF one can run via #FFMPEG this
ffmpeg -i input.gif output.mp4
Sadly, currently the same cannot be done with WEBP, since decoding animated WEBP has not yet been implemented.
#DailyBloggingChallenge(267/300)
#Gimp also permits to export the animation as a #WEBP. This will nullify the artefacts issue introduced by #GIF.
The only issue is if one wants to upload the result to the #Fediverse the animation won’t be registered.
I am a strong proponent of leaving this planet better behind than when I arrived on it. Thus to get the most bang for a lifetime my key focus is #longevity which I attempt to achieve with #nutrition specifically #plantbased.
Longevity is good and all as long as you are not frail and weak. Ideally would be to die young at an old age. Thus I incorporate tactics from #biohacking and #primalfitness. Additionally I am an advocate of #wildcrafting, which is a super set of #herbalism.
Studied many fields of science like maths or statistics, though the constant was always computer science.
Currently working as a fullstack web developer, though prefer to call myself a #SoftwareCrafter.
The goal of my side projects is to practice #GreenDevelopement meaning to create mainly static websites. The way the internet was intended to be.
On the artistic side, to dub all content under the Creative Commons license. Thereby, ideally, only using tools and resources that are #FLOSS #OpenSource. #nobot
