If you're ready for some archaeological adventure but find yourself pandemic-trapped at home and unable to make it to Egypt's ancient Valley of the Kings right now, try the virtual tomb tour of Pharaoh Ramses VI who reigned in the 12th century BC.
The tomb of Ramses VI is located in the Valley of the Kings, in Luxor, Egypt.

How much could 10 french franc in 1898 buy in today's rupees? What was the worth of 1 billion German mark in 1923 or 1000 Polish zloty in 1980? Was an annual wage of 25 pounds per year in 1780 much compared to the wage rates at the time?

Innehållet i de digitala resurserna, hur de används och till vad, är viktigare än att diskutera skärmtid. Det menar forskaren Petra Petersen som i en avhandling undersökt de möjligheter surfplattan ger för att få barn delaktiga i förskolans aktiviteter.

International travel document news from IATA
The 2Africa project is part of a joint enterprise by China Mobile International, Facebook, MTN GlobalConnect, Orange, stc, Telecom Egypt, Vodafone, and the West Indian Ocean Cable Company (WIOCC).
The 37,000km-long 2Africa cable will feature around 21 landing points in 16 African countries and will carry three times the total network capacity of all the submarine cables currently serving the continent.
In a word, thrilling. When is the last time you heard someone describe Sudoku in that way?

Telecommunications metadata
Your ISP learns every website you visit via a few different channels: DNS lookups, the IP address of sites, and TLS Server Name Indication (SNI). Most ISPs log and store this metadata for some time. Mitigation There's no need to use your ISP's DNS server. Run your own. You can't really getting around your ISP learning the IP addresses you visit. But with TLS encryption and the pervasive use of content distribution networks (CDN) by many website providers, the IP address itself does not really say much. The "leaking" of domain names via SNI is harder to get around, but newer versions of TLS improve on the situation. -
Web Site Data
Any Web site that you go to is very likely to keep extensive logs of everything you do on the site, including what pages you visit and what links you click. They may also record what outgoing links you click. For example, Google Search does this. Mitigation Try to use alternative services, that don't track you. Such as Nitter instead of Twitter, Invidious instead of Youtube, DuckDuckGo instead of Google Search, Bibliogram or PixelFed instead of Instagram, Jitsi instead of Zoom, Signal instead of WhatsApp, and so on. -
Browser Sync Data
Although the browsing history stored on your computer may not be directly accessible, many browsers offer a “sync” feature which lets you share history, bookmarks, passwords, etc. between browser instances (such as between your phone and your laptop). This information has to be stored on a server somewhere and so is potentially accessible. Mitigation Make sure that whoever hosts this server allows you to properly encrypt your data (in such a way that the server owner can never decrypt). Or even better, self-host the sync server yourself (Firefox sync can be self-hosted in this manner).
Wärtsilä has modelled 145 countries and regions to find the optimal way to produce electricity from 100% renewable energy sources. The map illustrates how the power system of each of these regions would look like if they were to be optimally built from scratch, not considering the burden of existing power plants.
Nicely done interactive map, and quite fun to explore.
The optimisations presented in this map were calculated using a proprietary tool, but carried out in collaboration between Wärtsilä and LUT University's solar research group under the direction of professor of solar economy Christian Breyer.
Not sure if the data itself is published anywhere. Don't know why several outlets label this map "open access". Interactive, yes, openly accessible on the web, yes, but by that measure most any website would count as "open access".
The optimal capacity and energy mix are defined using a power system optimisation tool Plexos, which is a commercially used software developed by Energy Exemplar. Technologies and their parameters (costs, efficiencies, technical lifetime etc.) and conditions of each region (renewable profiles, load profiles etc.) are given to the software, after which the optimisation algorithm calculates the mix of technologies which provide the lowest cost for each region, but can still manage to serve energy demand reliably every hour of the year. We have used representative region-specific renewable profiles. For reliability purposes the system in both scenarios has been designed to sustain up to three consecutive days of low renewable production.
It's interesting to see how the Wärtsilä PR department has clearly been spreading the word around. News of this Atlas via
