Not at all. I love Organic Maps/Comaps and I think in many aspects including usability (GM is trash to navigate and drains batteries like hell), it's much better than GM. However, when I want to reach a place I either find the address online, or search on google maps and then navigate to it with a better, lighter, offline, more beautiful app.

I'm just saying that open source maps usually are heavily lacking on the search functionality, and that's sad but understandable.

I don't know much about the topic, but I guess even if that's the case, it's likely most open source projects just don't have contributors knowledgeable or willing to invest the time

Windows 8 ia older now (13 years) than XP was when 8 came out (11 years). Feel old yet?

Windows 10 is almost as old (10 years).

  1. Community data like OpenSteeetMap rely on voluntary submissions, so the data can be either obsessive-level complete or non-existent. Especially businesses don't put themselves on OSM so their location/name/info are somewhat old or just don't exist

  2. Search algorithms are incredibly complex to make it work well, Google (the king lf search engines) has likely hundreds of people working on an algorithm, Apple the same way

  3. Offline search is also very taxing even if tue app implemented such algorithms, google maps searches with their billion dollars servers

I think Skibidi Toilet is way healthier than mainstream comedic tropes like "fat guy funny" or "gay guy effemminate" that were soooo common in mainstream TV and now are (luckily) fading out.

Brainrot is equally stupid but more self-concious and more honest.

And to be honest, the first time I stumbled upon Skibidi Toilet, I thought it was a 2012 Garry's mod stupid video, game me the same vibe.

However, Ai-slop brainrot (brainslop? Sloprot?), that feels worse. I know I'm pulling out the "kids these days card", but what really changed is the media: TikTok and all the Tok-likes+AI are becoming better and better at rotting your brain. I don't know if they really worsen the attention span, even temporarily, but I'm convinced it reduces people's happiness and is the closest we can get to mind control as the consiracists intend it to be

If the situation turns out where Trump is falling (unlikely but not impossible), you accept a plea deal with current Trump allies that will wait for him to look away and throw him under the bus, so someone else will take power.

That works under the assumption that Trump falls and crumbles

If I saw such a sign, I would be even more worried. As they say, every sign has a story behind

You're not speaking metaphorically, anxiety for an exam, or even for just showing up at work, is the same emotion one feels when in a warzone. Your brain is mistakely interpreting some signals as life threatening and trying to save your life by preparing for fight/flight. The immediate cause might be hard to find.

That's not being hard on yourself, that would be punishing yourself for your failure and telling yourself you are such a disgrace.

I've heard great things about it. Does it also work on linux?
