Daniel Gibert<p>Years ago I bought an interactive map &amp; guide to Anhk-Morpork, very impressive, with both a map and an aerial view up to the last detail. The app never updated and soon become incompatible, big loss. I dismantled it and recovered the 23766 tiles of 256x256 pixels each that composed the two images. I've been slowly rebuilding the aerial one into a giant 24064 x 16896 px image. Already 3/4 done. I intend to print a great poster for my studio. Detail is insane. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/GNUTerryPratchett" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GNUTerryPratchett</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/DiscWorld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DiscWorld</span></a></p>
Lady Wicket<p>“The wind howled. lightning stabbed at the earth erratically, like an inefficient assassin. Thunder rolled back and forth across the dark, rain-lashed hills.
