Been using Magic Earth with Android Auto, and it’s been working great. I prefer it over Organic Maps. While I prefer Organic’s privacy focus, it was laggy on my phone and search also was more fussy and difficult to find things.

I love offline maps. I only have data enabled when I want internet access.

Magic Earth can do directions for walking without data enabled. Google Maps with an offline map still requires data to generate a route for walking.

My job here is done 😉

All of them?

NO! NO, I WON’T HAVE IT!

I will not give up my command line, obscure, non-obvious commands that control my machine!

It is an abomination that I don’t have to search for, and then wade through hundreds of AI generated pages of useless information just to show me what services are running with systemd!

I am seriously considering starting my own startup system. I am thinking I could initiate (init) runlevels to start subsystems at various stages. If anyone is interested, hit me up.

Not me, but I have heard that kids used to think ‘olden times’ were black & white, because all old films were before the introduction of colour. Like, it’s only in the last 80? years that people see in colour…

It makes me giggle when modern movies use b&w to depict pre 21st century, or even ‘flashbacks’ are b&w

Uhoh. Australia is gonna have to build a wall, isn’t it?

If we’re 3 meals away from chaos, or 9 meals away from anarchy, human rights won’t be unimportant, but would you place them above your own survival or feeding your children?

It’s the subtext for so many doomsday/zombie movies. When it really comes to the crunch, what wouldn’t you do ?

Searching for stuff is polluted by AI generated stupidly long and full of unnecessary explanations.

But if I did, my car would sound like a racecar!

This is going to be a tough decision…

“You know enough to be dangerous”

It can be used as either an insult or a compliment.

I misread you as saying “Thanks late stage filesystem.” 🤣

A scifi short story I read was set in a somewhat idyllic future.

Robots did everything. Everyone was given housing, food etc. Health was covered and people lived virtually forever. Nobody worked, and you could travel and do anything you wanted.

The most prized thing, that everyone was desperate for, was having an original thought.

Worse still, no manual entry of the birth date, so it takes ages to scroll down and select the year.

That it’s never too late!
