looks dead to me. last post was in july. I agree with the sentiment however.
I will not take slander from someone excited about the cartoon Avatar, or who is keen to discuss its geopolitics. Good day to you from a stuffy old prat!
Ok you know what, you got me. I can't argue with the part you've quoted above. I suppose it doesn't break any rules on the community.
But yes, basically I don't like the style or subject to the extent where a simple downvote would just not do and thought I should share my thoughts.
Does anyone know of a community similar to reddit's /r/museum ?
you can now enter google meet rooms without a google account. i did it last week
Where I live, there is a random collection of buses, all privately operated, with no route maps, no website, and no head office.
This is how I do it with iD and Relatify:
- Create all the bus stops in iD (that includes the bus stop sign location, and (importantly!) the bus stopping location on the road)
- Create a relation using iD using only the first two or three bus stops.
- Use Relatify to finish connecting the rest of the stops.
Spotify algorithm pushes artists that pay them to push them to you. Get your recommendations via more organic means if you can. That means blogs, real people. Screw the spotify recommendation slop (and I say this as someone who has spotify premium.)

I reckon if you showed the picture of the giraffe to a human and asked what's wrong with it, many people wouldn't notice anything "off" about its coat.
The only multiplayer game I really play is Team Fortress 2. I learnt the mechanics over a decade ago and I understand it. My reflexes aren't amazing, but I "get it". I can't be bothered to learn any new multiplayer game mechanics, so when I want to get online and play a shooter I go for TF2.
Coop games are another matter, but yeah, TF2. My desire to play it comes and goes, but it's always there waiting for me.
I think you've mis-tagged that and it should be highway=milestone.
I read this this morning and was raging that they didn't mention OSM at all in it!!
Wilmott worries that these maps, now dominant, lack information that more traditional maps like Britain’s Ordnance Survey (OS) still have: “An OS map shows you where a stile is for horses; I’m not sure Google Maps even knows what a stile is. When you’re surveying a space, you find that information but geo AI doesn’t have that information. I’m from Australia – you can look at a space where Google Maps might tell you to walk a route through tall long grass, but if you’re from a place you know: there will be snakes in there. Most of this kind of mapping, because it was developed out of urban maps, privileges urban information, not rural information.”
Music-wise: Radio stations "oh but the radio sucks" yeah but online radio stations don't. They don't have any ads. Start with NTS 1 and 2 and go from there. Last.fm browsing USER pages. RYM user pages. Online music guides written by real people. Recommendations from friends- real people.
Video-wise: I honestly don't watch youtubers. Their output and quality isn't up to snuff. No I don't care about speedruns, about "internet rabbit holes" about any of that. About people restoring old gear. About basically anything. So I watch actual TV shows and actual movies, and you guessed it, I get those recommendations from REAL PEOPLE.
I deleted my original comment cos I felt it was a little negative but somehow that didn't propagate across the fediverse.. weird!
I use Organic Maps for daily use, and OSMAnd for outdoors activities like hiking etc. The added info and features in OSMAnd are indispensable for outdoors use.
I take steps to prevent algorithms from dictating what I listen to and watch. Algorithmically-decided culture feels utterly wrong to me.
