I had no idea this existed, cheers!

I'll sometimes contribute when I'm travelling to more rural areas which are less likely to be well mapped. The experience in my country has been that cities are very well mapped on OpenStreetMaps with a lot of detail, often having more up to date information than Google Maps. Less populated areas usually don't have as much detail, but the basics, like roads and buildings are usually well mapped.

I've also noticed OpenStreetMaps is awesome for trails and smaller roads used by hikers, usually being much more useful than Google Maps.

I second StreetComplete. I actually had quite a surprise when I first installed it - I expected to have a lot of mapping work ahead of me in my somewhat rural area, but most of it had been mapped in a lot of detail already.

Great shot, I really like it. The only critique I might have is that I probably would've centered the sun - with both the sun and the bird on the left, I feel like all the attention is drawn to the left and the right portion of the photo is too empty.

The grass and the bird make the composition great.

Maybe I'm just following the wrong communities, but every time a new AAA game has a horrible launch I see the same discourse over and over of how gaming isn't what it used to be, all games suck nowadays, etc etc.

My true hot take is that despite all the moaning in gaming communities about the death of gaming, we're in pretty much the golden age of gaming. There's so many good games constantly coming out that I haven't been able to play nearly as much of them as I'd like to and my backlog keeps growing.

Sometimes I'll notice that I keep postponing some indie game that I put on my list because it looked like a lot of fun over some newer indie and realize that I'll maybe never end up reaching that far down in my backlog that I'll actually play it.

I guess you can spend a lot of money if you buy them on release, but I personally never do. And both their games and the DLCs pack are always on some sale. I'm pretty sure I bought Stellaris for like 10 euros and eventually bought a bunch of its DLC in some DLC pack for another 10 euros. The same for Cities Skylines basically. 20 euros for the amount of fun I took out of those games is hardly a lot.

That isn't a hot take though, everyone and their mother makes jokes about how many DLC there is for Paradox Interactive games.

Here's the real hot take -> I don't mind the amount of DLC on Paradox Interactive games. Every game of their I've played was really good on its own, and I only buy any DLC after I've poured tens of hours into the main game, usually not because I feel like anything was lacking from the main game, but just because I want an excuse to keep playing it. So for all I care, they can keep making all the DLC they want if the base games keep being this good.

I'm on the same boat right now, borg and borgbase.

It's not pedantry, it's just that RAID and instant data duplication or synchronization aren't meant to protect you from many of the situations in which you would need a backup. If a drive fails, you can restore the information from wherever you duplicated the data to. If, however, your data is corrupted somehow, the corruption is just duplicated over and you have no way to restore the data to a state before the corruption happened. If you accidentally delete files you didn't want to delete, the deletion is replicated over and, again, no way to restore them. RAID wasn't built to solve the problems a backup tries to solve.

No idea honestly, it's the word that the community used back in the subreddit. I think it is exactly a reference to its use in the car world, though

I'm curious, what distro do you have on your laptop?
