High school students from Braunschweig played the first soccer match in Germany on September 29, 1874. Their Latin teacher had encouraged them to take part: He wanted less military drill like in gymnastics and more team sports in the fresh air.

I hoped some other people would start posting anniversaries in !anniversaries@feddit.nl once I've posted a bunch, but sadly I'm still the only one.

I copied the information from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_24#Events. Gonna remove the conflicting information from the title now. Thanks for notifying me.

Enable undetermined language in your community in c/fedigrow@lemm.ee
[–] crimeschneck@feddit.nl 3 points 3 weeks ago

On lemmy-ui frontend you can change it by going to community settings and under languages you can select multiple ones by holding Ctrl key.

Thank you for this information! I thought you can only select one language in your personal settings and thats why I haven't selected any language at all until now, but selecting multiple ones works the same way as you described it for the community settings. Maybe this should be clarified on the settings page.

If you don't have a problem with sharing your listening data:

  • Last.fm (for example, check "similar to" section of artist pages or "similar albums" of album pages)
  • ListenBrainz, a free and open source alternative to Last.fm (for example, Music Neighbourhood, ListenBrainz Radio, or the "Created for you" playlists (they have been criticised by people for having too little variety, but according to the devs this will increase as more people use the service))

Or you can just ask people for recommendations.

Is there a community to find other communities? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] crimeschneck@feddit.nl 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It usually updates daily though. Check the burger menu at the top right. It shows you when the data was last updated. The README of the github page also says that "publish-pages" is failing, whatever that is.

Yeah, my idea was wrong. I just looked it up and it seems PNG is the best file format for pixel art.

[Meta] (Edit: I've made a template) Should we try to make anything TF2-related on this year's fediverse canvas event? in c/tf2@lemmy.world

I'm trying to paint the TF2 logo: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=-50&y=-203&zoom=9&tu=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2Fthumb%2F4%2F48%2FTeam_Fortress_2_style_logo.svg%2F1024px-Team_Fortress_2_style_logo.svg.png&tw=25&tx=151&ty=43&ts=ONE_TO_ONE

Maybe someone else would like to help with that. I'm kinda struggling with picking the right colors, shouldn't there be a way to automatically pick the right color for the template?

Edit: It's done, now it only needs to be defended in case of vandalism :)
