I have Car Play so use Apple Maps a lot. If I am going somewhere new I check the route on google maps as well to see if they agree. I used Apple Maps a lot in France this year on holiday and always got to where I needed to go. Routes chosen were sometimes questionable in terms of using the best road but I have had this with a Garmin in the past as well. It's unfortunate that you cant download an area as you can on google maps but the new european data roaming directive has helped this somewhat.

Seem to remember doing this in Opera over a decade ago

Just for info here is the mod for Python and Minetest https://github.com/arpruss/raspberryjammod-minetest/tree/mas...

Re Minetest this works with Python if you install the raspberryjammod from GitHub

Also recently managed to get it running with @edu_blocks https://twitter.com/damianmooney/status/881158457671524353

So in general you can do anything with Minetest that you can with the raspberryPi version of minecraft.

Seems like a whole bunch of things that basic coding might help with. eg '- follow instructions in a book to do a simple task' becomes write instructions in a computer to do a simple task '- write a letter explaining directions in a clear way' becomes describe how to use your program '- understand correlation is different from causality' debugging your program will help here etc.

The Irish Post Office is now offering something similar for items bought in the Uk/USA You get a 'fake' Address in these countries and then all of the items are shipped together to ireland before being delivered.

But the point is that if you are not getting paid they are as you say users and not customers.

Just for comparison os/2 v2.1 requires 386sx 4mb ram and 20-40mb disk space according to the box.

Yes, but the road has a stop sign.

Ireland raised the age at which people are entitled to a state pension. It's moving from 65 to 68. https://www2.deloitte.com/ie/en/pages/deloitte-private/artic...

This is pretty common in Europe. For example income tax and social insurance contributions in Ireland would be greater than 50% of marginal income at this level. This money is used to fund services and fund the national debt.

Also if it records images it would fall under data protection legislation in the EU

Can I recommend Minetest

Scratch and its clones are a great way to start for kids without the problems of syntax errors. Everything always works. It might not do what you want but it always does something.

Kids at my local coderdojo enjoy beetleblocks which is like 3d scratch http://beetleblocks.com/run/ The files can be exported and used in a minecraft clone https://twitter.com/damianmooney/status/843594021024993280

Microsoft have just announced a block based code environment for minecraftedu https://youtu.be/3rKuSlgqePo

It seems like a way of coding that has really taken off.

Free with the current edition of the MagPi

Data from the UK seems to suggest it's not as clear as that. Depends on the make, even cats from the same group VAG vary heavily. Skoda and VW seem good and Audi poor.

The EU will soon have fines for data protection violations. Up to €20m

I'm sure you know but apt-get autoremove

Have a look at Kano on the raspberrypi. Build and code your own computer https://liliputing.com/2016/03/first-look-kanos-raspberry-pi... It has lessons for Graphics, Minecraft, Music and the command line. See what interests them and then explore, if they like music then they will have fun with SonicPi etc.

Am I the only one who assumes that they have access to all this stuff anyway. I guessed that they just want to tie the imei to you to make tracking easier.

Like Drucker said, there is efficiency and effectiveness. When you do both it's a good outcome.

which is ironic, given the size of Amazon investment in Ireland.

Personally I think the raspberryPi is a great place for kids to start. In particular look at what the Kano guys are doing. https://kano.me/

In my head I have started to call twitter shitpeoplesay. I find that it helps contextualize things when someone's tweets are reported in the news.

As I always say, trees for paper are a crop with a long growth cycle. If you don't need the paper who will plant the trees?

when someone builds a free resource to help people do you not think that the tone of your comment is a bit harsh. Maybe something like 'hey Shane if you did x or y it might help those people who have config z access your stuff'

So I guess using opera as your browser with its free vpn will be a problem
