I never knew the fen/bog part! The only reason I knew swamps from marshes is from labeling them in OpenStreetMap
Humans Are Such Easy Prey is an awesome synthwave song that uses this clip in the beginning
Sometimes Sharon isn’t Karen
If it’s like other masks I’ve seen there is a flap or rubber gasket in there that acts as a one way valve. The US military uses M-50s and that’s how they work too
It’s normally closed. When you breathe in the air is drawn through the mask filter. When you breathe out the pressure pushes the flap open. When your exhale stops there isn’t enough pressure to keep it open and the flap seals up again.
Yeah I’m not really trying to hide from the govt, but I would vote on limiting their power if given the chance. Anyway, what I don’t want is every corporation I deal with (car, bank, phone, apps, isp, etc) to track me so excessively.
If the govt did get curious it would take zero leg work, just ask those companies that are very willing to hand over my data to damn near anyone, or hold onto it long enough to have it stolen.
So with that in mind limiting corporate surveillance and limiting ease of govt surveillance is essentially the same thing, but the govt has the ability to put in the work and get you if they really wanted to.
Yup we should normalize gardening and canning. It’s a thing my grandparents knew. Their families survived times of world wars, dust bowls and the great depression. They probably didn’t have much choice in the moment but even when times got better they kept up a wonderful little garden. Kid me didn’t get why they didn’t just buy the things they needed.
I love the conveniences of modern farming and I use it every day. But like all big industialized systems they can be fragile. Covid was a huge problem for a lot of indistries and thankfully farming wasn’t really one of them. But if it was countless people would have struggled.
I’m not really a prepper or anything crazy but I don’t want to forget the lessons learned just a few decades ago- gardening is great and worth the effort.
You can have both and it doesn’t need to compete with industrial farming or meet some business model. It just needs to meet your needs and/or goals.
Gardening lets you grow the stuff you want how you want and eat it fresh without taking days and trucks on a highway to get it to you.
I’m thankful for the conveniences of modern agriculture but if gardening didn’t have any positive impact why did they push victory gardens so much in WW2?
It feels good, teaches valuable skills, makes your neighborhood more resiliant and gives you healthy things you want to eat. It’s more than simply therapeutic.
Lol just imagine thinking you’re going on a sweet spontaneous date only to start flying and realise you’ll be getting blasted by this hurricane force wind for hours
It would be kind of interesting (and probably terrifying) if it acted more like our wind tho
I’m not a fan of the phrase “trust the science” without any further explanation. Like okay we obviously don’t know everything in your field but if you know enough you should at least be able to explain it like we’re 5. Otherwise it’s just “trust me bro, you’re too dumb to understand” and that’s not good for anyone.
Aside from a very loud, very small minority, most people are willing to learn and understand, but won’t follow blindly.
Lol go for it just send me a screenshot of the slide!
Yeah it’s been improving over the past few months. It’s hit or miss though
I had to run that through Bing AI real quick lol
Inside Out was inspired by an exec sneaking a peak at his head (jk?)
Idk how the new user experience is now but back when I first downloaded it I wanted a hybrid of sat imagery when cell signal allowed, with an overlay of offline OSM data. This was for two reasons, hiking and to see if the mapping in that hike area needed any major land use edits.
Anyway I had to fiddle with the menus and settings for a while to get the overlays where I wanted it to be. Don’t get me wrong I was able to figure it out but for users who want to install and go it can be understandably frustrating
Osmand is really cool and it’s really capable but I understand that it isn’t for people who don’t want to tinker a bit to make things work just right for them.
For that Organic Maps is what I recommend.
I’ve never been tased but I strongly suspect it would be taser, tear gas, pepper spray from best to worst. The effects of pepper spray is intense and long lasting, even when you shower after pepper spray will leave your pores and hit your face again, and maybe even run down to your junk if you aren’t careful
