We all know people cant get wet or something catastrophic will happen

Uhm... a meltdown? Greetings from the Aspie world 🙃

Is there anything as open as Transistor, but also as advanced as Google Timeline? I need snap-to-road (that'd be even better with OpenStreetMap data since their roads are way more accurate) and picking a mode of transportation (on foot, by bike etc.)

This distance is perfect for an electric scooter, even basic Xiaomi M365 will do.

Or if people just weren't fucking thieves. Don't defend criminals.

That is called “dress for the weather”.

Sorry, for majority of workers who can work remotely “dress for the weather” means staying in pyjamas, because bad weather means WFH.

Jacket doesn't do shit for rain. Believe me, I'm an Aspie and I have too much sensory issues for getting out of home in bad weather. The day it rains is the day i WFH. All the problems stem from the fact that the jacket is too close to the body, generating sweat (and I already sweat too much without it), not to mention it's not watertight. An enclosed velomobile would probably solve the problem, but I don't think this sort of vehicle is legal in Poland and can guarantee getting to the office as fast as I'd on a motorcycle or even a moped.

And a small distance to my destination. When my previous job was 8 km from home, I could do the journey in half an hour on a Xiaomi M365 e-scooter, very popular in Poland. But unfortunately our company was absorbed by another one, with office 16 km away, which means prohibitively long (for my sleep-deprived ass) 55 minute commute. And no, public transit doesn't make it shorter. So a motorcycle driving license it is.

I've tried OsmAnd, unfortunately it's too slow for me compared to pretty smooth operation of GMaps. I also use Google Timeline very extensively, with tagging all visited places and snap-to-road whenever I can. So far I haven't found any open-source direct replacement for Timeline, it can be pretty annoying at times (e.g. Google mangling already manually corrected routes and not telling me).

Nah, fuck them for using crappy MP3 as their lossy codec. Spotify uses Ogg Vorbis, with some AAC sprinkled in.

I hate that cold color palette :(

Same here, now I only use .world only for .world communities, .ee for everything else.

Hottest? Hell no, most of them hit the wall at 30. 18-25 is the prime age.

Just ask any guy or a lesbian and you'll have it. A privilege unknown to men.

I write 5 zł (5 zlotys, 5 PLN) or 5€ (5 euros, 5 EUR) because in Europe we don't unnecesarily invert the currency symbol compared to what we speak. The following system, which I found on Wikipedia, would make the most sense:

Exceptionally, the symbol for the Cape Verdean escudo (like the Portuguese escudo, to which it was formerly pegged) is placed in the decimal separator position, as in 250.

That'd be perfectly consistent with what we speak and solve the problem of fractional currency notation as well.

Do you say "it costs five dollars" or "it costs dollar five"? Write as you speak, please.

There are also WebP's, AVIF's and JPEG XL's.

The migration must be perfect, which means posts, comments and up/downvotes from the source instance must appear as if they've always been on the target instance.
