I've been playing around with Google Maps lately to create custom maps.
I don't like google but have no experience with any other apps and have never tried mapping of any sort before.
I'm trying to create a map layer(s) that has historic sites, stone circles, woodland, cemeteries, UNESCO sites etc. So if I'm traveling I can stop and see them.
I've created my own Google Map using lists of sites from Wikipedia. This has gone ok but leads to a lot of data cleansing and the functionality isn't great.
I've seen this website but it isn't as complete as the Wikipedia text lists ive imported: hmdb.org/
I'm completely new to this and have no experience. Are there any good resources out there for me to use or contribute to?
I'd like to de-google as much as possible.
P.S. do I need to enable developer mode or root my phone to install open street map now?
NAME THE MAN. I will not be surprised to learn the man is a xenophobic piece of garbage and that this attack is a direct result of the CAQ policies of hate, fear, and division in this province.
I just remembered the famous story about how the original ARM processor had extremely low power consumption by accident, so much so that it could run off leakage current. [1] I wonder if any recent ARM application processor (not a microcontroller, but something with an MMU that can run Linux) has power consumption that low. And if so, how does it fare on benchmarks?
Sometimes being a #HealthAndSafety / #IAQ advocate can feel a little lonely, but I'm an eternal optimistic – and not without reason.
When I bring air quality monitors to events, and make the data easy to access, people respond. People here at #MatrixConf have been monitoring the air quality, adjusting ventilation, and noting when things are concerning. I never even had to ask!
The trick is making the invisible visible, and giving people the tools to make informed decisions.
... and in case you're curious, here are the live data feeds for the event!

Z mých příspěvků jste mohli nabýt dojmu, že Utah je jen suchá poušť, plná červených a i jinak barevných skal a šutrů. V Utahu je ale i jiná pustina. Mokrá a slaná. Velké solné jezero. Nevídám ho příliš často, vlastně jen když někam odlétám😉

Inspired by Google's move to remove @organicmaps from the Playstore without warning, I finally decided to move my > 3,000 Google Maps saved places to Organic Maps. To facilitate doing this for others' benefit, I made a quick webpage to convert your Google Maps GeoJSON data to GPX and KMZ files that render well in Organic Maps.
ArcaneChat (previously known as #DeltaLab) an alternative Delta Chat client for #Android is now available in official F-Droid store!
If you already have it you can securely continue to upgrade it now from F-Droid (or #IzzyOnDroid) thanks to #ReproducibleBuilds which ensures the apk matches the source code and not me nor F-Droid is manipulating the binary 🎉
Added ts.net to my spammy-subdomains.txt list. While I have been aware of this for the past year, the number of subdomains on fedi has increased and the spam risk is too great (at least one person reported spam).
I should have added this months ago, to be honest: free easily-created subdomains and partially-managed hosting (networking) all in one for a product with sufficient popularity without heavy moderation of spam generally spells out a terrible place way to run an instance. Get a domain name.
Moreover, I’ve had an increase in requests to add entries to shared blocklists. I normally don’t take requests for shared lists except in extreme situations, and in those cases I only do overrides as part of the process documented in the article. If I think an override is controversial, I ask a couple sources most likely to disagree; if multiple sources are opposed to adding an entry that overrides consensus, I don’t.
The point of FediNuke is to show what basically everyone agrees should be blocked, and that leaves out a lot of awful (and less-awful) entries. The goal isn’t to make a blocklist that’s enough; it’s to make a blocklist whose entries you probably agree with. As the docs say, this list is not comprehensive. It’s a huge compromise. There’s a reason why our blocklist isn’t just FediNuke; FediNuke is a list to compare other lists to, or a starting point for blocklist-skeptics. If you choose to trust FediNuke (and it’s fine if you don’t; I’m not “making” anybody use it on principle), then your list should eventually be a superset of what you import from it.
Nice find by my friend @s3phy visiting me, who is giving me this genuine branded #Lodge no.5 #castiron pan found in a trashcan on the street on his way back from the supermarket today 🧐
