www.neowin.net Microsoft's iconic Windows 95 and Minecraft Alpha themes just became historic, literallyAlmost every nerd is aware of the iconic Microsoft Windows theme songs. The one for Windows 95 just became history as it got inducted into the National Recording Registry.
The U.S. Library of Congress (LoC) has inducted the Windows 95 sound into its National Recording Registry (NRR). For those unfamiliar, the NRR is essentially a list of sound recordings that "are culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant, and inform or reflect life in the United States."
Alongside the Windows 95 theme, Minecraft's Volume Alpha has also been chosen, alongside 23 other mainstream songs.

Windows @sopuli.xyz WorstCase @lemmy.world Digital Wellbeing for Windows 11
I am looking for an application similar to "Digital Wellbeing" for Android. I want it to show activity (hours/minutes) per day (maybe even per used application). Usecase is in a big school with hundreds of computers. Goal is to increase awareness of screentime in K12. The statistics don't need to be centralized / in the cloud. It would even be better if the app was local only. Any suggestions?
