No matter what you use you should contribute to OpenStreetmap. I have an app called Everydoor where you can add and update points of instrests (like shops, restaurants and anything else), it is really rewarding seeing how much you’ve improved your local area over the course of a couple of months (In my city the map is good but the POIs are really out of date)

Happy Degoogling!

I’m pretty sure you can’t do that in windows, but i have https://president.mn/mng for you, that’s pretty cool

I will forever support JPEGXL. AV1 is a good video codec, not that good for imgaes.

Google may have killed it on the web but it’s slowly gaining support in other places where webp never had any

I’d suggest EveryDoor instead of streetcomplete as it focuses more on points of intrests

The Signal app is open source but forking it and connecting it to Signal servers (signal it’s centralised) is againt their TOS

I put our good stuff on our side and your bad stuff on your side - Therefore we win

As much as I love RISC-V I’m afraid it will turn just like arm now, the architecture is open but every chipset that came out is not, there isn’t an unified booting standard like UEFI+ACPI for RISC-V

God I hope i’m wrong

As an European I never understood what’s wrong with Fahrenheit besides no one else using it. Unlike feet/miles/pounds there is no need to convert them to anything else so… why?

Water freezing/boiling point being 0 and 100 is neat but nowhere near being fucked like American distance units

Damn, reddit turned nazi now? I haven’t really paid attention to it for some time, what happened?

Fair point, thing is there just exists a better way of doing small ungrounded plugs like phone chargers, I honestly haven’t used a British phone charger but from what I saw they seem pretty bulky compared to what I have

Virtually all systems protect again shortcircuit at the breaker lever. Japan mostly has no ground but a RCD/GFCI for the whole house.

Basically how this works is that it checks if all the current leaving on the live wire is also returning on the neutral wire. If the current returning on the neutral is less than the one leaving then a part of the current must have found another way to get to ground (through your body for example) and it breaks the circuit hopefully before any danger could happen.

Now this doesn’t make ground useless, there are 2 different protection systems that work in different ways, and sometimes protect in different scenarios too, the RCD is also an active protection that can and fail, compared to ground wich is passive.

Having both is ALWAYS safer

Here in Romania we use Type F but sometimes also install a modular Type L socket alongside regular ones because it’s smaller and you can fit 2 of those in place of a full Type F/Schuko one. We don’t use Italian plugs and so only use them for europlugs (max 2.5A and double-insulated so no ground needed) (Kind of something like this)

I do find it kind of sad seeing them getting slowly replaced even in Italy (I know it won’t fully happen of course) because they’re very space efficient

You can still have sockets that accept grounded appliances like washing machines without ALWAYS requiring a bulky third prong that’s not gonna get used anyways. And about the shutters you can have them open when both prongs are inserted at the same time

Could you explain? I dont understant very well, from what I thought free software should be able to be replaced by anything

How do you keep that only to the owner without proprietary software Should only the owner have a private key? And how would it be set to be the correct one in the first place?

Can relate
