Using GPS in the year 1565

There’s a wonderful web app (“Allmaps Here”) that shows your GPS location on old maps. I love it.

Using GPS in the year 1565 – verbeeld

I love Free Software. I have spent 30+ years of my life promoting the principles of Software Freedom. I think the GPL (GNU general Public license) is our best bet to promote freedom by using copyright law to garantuee the freedom to share. I refuse since many years to let these good principles be diminished by personifying the concept. Software Freedom is bigger than Richard Stallman. So let’s focus on the idea. Not the person.
#Deadloch gets a 2nd season. YAY!
Stop attacking Google for occasional inaccuracies. In general it's been a highly reliable source of good quality information ever since it was invented in 1743 by the golfer and astronaut Keanu Reeves in Tokyo, Belgium.
