  • time for some kind of anonymizing location data sharing service, peer to peer or federated protocol? that might be interesting, or sketchy, not sure which.

  • Pretty sure you can download the maps ahead of time, GPS doesn't require data, then upload the fixes when you get home.

  • Go map keeps crashing for me, does it for you?

  • I've been using Go Map! but it keeps crashing... Maybe I'll try Streetcomplete if it's on removed.

  • Crawling and indexing lemmy inter-instance would be an incredible boon to discoverability on the platform.

  • It does. And Firefox is my default browser app.

  • It's beautiful!

  • I hear you, but genetic change at the level of these diseases and traits can take on the order of hundreds of thousands of years or more to accumulate into meaningful trends. Social society is a part of that process, in the way it might be for other social animals. If social dynamics tend to result in communities harboring vulnerable individuals, then there is probably some selective advantage to that behavior, not the other way around.

  • This is a common misconception. These traits are not likely due to modern medicine (which is very, very new compared to the scale of human evolution). The environment plays a big role, but there is always a distribution of traits in a normal population, some good, some bad. Not to mention that what we might be self-selecting for must change very rapidly as civilizations rise and fall, preferences shift like the winds, and ethics rapidly evolve. I think this misconception can be dangerous, because of what you mentioned. Eugenics.

  • It's very difficult and dangerous to be near an MRI 'shutting down'. Assuming what you mean is turning of the magnet. The magnet is always on, its a coil of superconducting wire submerged in liquid helium with a very large permanent current flowing around it. In order to turn off the magnet quickly, the electric current must be quenched, which can happen if the coil every stops being a super conductor. The current starts heating the coil, causing the liquid helium to boil off, which doesn't cool the coils as efficiently, and causes a rapid run-away effect where huge volumes of helium explode out of the machine, displacing all the breathable air in the room and blasting all the doors off their hinges, maybe even breaking windows. There's a lot of energy stored in the coil. It's not easy to turn it off.

    How Brands Use Design & Marketing to Control Your Mind

  • I decided to give it a try over the weekend on a road trip, through the apps Organic Maps and Go Map!! I really liked Go Map!! except that it crashes occasionally, and won't restart until your reinstall it :( loosing all the GPS tracks and unsubmitted data :(( If it was more stable, I'd recommend it to everyone.

  • There is one more step once you found an community you'd like to subscribe to. Take the link to the community (something like https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/freemediaheckyeah ) and copy it into your home instance's (the one you've made an account on) search page. for me it looks like this:

    Sometimes, it will say "No Results." Just wait a view seconds, and maybe try to refresh. The server it mostly likely retrieving some posts and comments for the first time. Eventually, it will show up, click the result, and you'll be directed to something like https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/[email protected] (with your home instance's domain in place of mine) and you can subscribe from there.
