Fucks Given lets you keep track of the things that made you care. Whenever something happens that you needlessly concern yourself with, jot it down with a tap. The app creates a chart of how many fucks you’ve given, so you can work to give none.

If you live in a big liberal city with a lot of tech people, then you probably have a really well organized team creating detailed maps. In that case, there's no reason to think that Google is any better than osm. In a lot of cases it's worse, especially for walking and cycling.

If you're in a smaller, poorer city or a rural area, there's a good chance that 80% or 90% of the addresses are just not there yet. Compare this random park in Berkeley, CA with labels for individual trees to this neighborhood in nearby Stockton, CA, which is assuredly more than 3-4 houses.

OSM usability really depends on where you live.

If you live in an area that's missing the data, it doesn't matter how good the app is. I regularly upload in my area, but it will be years before it is reliable as a primary app. I usually search in Organic Maps first, then in Google Maps. OSM gets me where I need about 10-20% of the time at most. Google Maps is about 99%.

There are multiple front-ends for YT Music. Song Tube is good, Libre Tube is good, Inner Tune, Musify, Vibe You, etc. I haven't used them all so I can't testify to them, but it is a deep bench.

 

Only a fraction of people will laugh at this.

 
 
 

Musk’s repeated outbursts against advertisers have dried up the main source of revenue for the loss-making company formerly known as Twitter. A recent decision to sue them for heeding his own advice to not buy ads on the platform hasn’t helped. At some point, he will have to provide a fresh infusion of cash to salvage his $44 billion takeover.

I think docx is actually an open format now.

You can select language, topics, sort style.

 

A young Jewish man was stabbed early Saturday morning near the Chabad movement’s headquarters in New York City by a man yelling “Free Palestine,” according to a local rabbi who said he knows the victim, as well as CCTV footage of the incident published online.

Yaacov Behrman tweeted that during Shabbat, the young male attacker asked the man: “Do you want to die?” He then stabbed him.

The victim was taken to the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery, Behrman said.

What is language tool?

Edit: Oh hey, I use this in Thunderbird. It's great!

From Homestar Runner to Salad fingers to badgers, stick figure battles, and the End of Ze World, this — dare I call it an artform? — was a cultural touchstone for a generation.

Flash made vector animation available to the masses, and internet distribution of the relatively small video files was a piece of cake. With the filetype now essentially deprecated, the creators gone on to bigger and better things, the distribution sites shut down, it is a dead form. Most of it will be lost forever, although there may be someone archiving some of it for posterity.

 

Severe flooding has forced people displaced by Sudan's civil war to relocate once again, adding further suffering to the plight of families already exhausted by conflict.

How about banning tips and forcing employers to pay the people working for them instead of the customers?

Does he get to keep the billions that Haniyeh embezzled from the people of Gaza?

Russia killing Russian culture is a part of traditional Russian culture. A time honored tradition really.

That is almost a total abortion ban. That's too early to even detect something like an ectopic pregnancy.

There are legal complications with silencing a sitting US president. Before Elon, Twitter struggled to contextualize and mitigate the damage. After Elon, the "damage" got artificially boosted to the top of the feed.

I had to leave Twitter because of right wing Nazi harassment. It was bad before Musk, but it used to be possible to report and remove bad actors. After Musk, reports were DOA.

I appreciate your reitetating. That was a mistake I made in my original comment. They are not the same and I should not have conflated them.
