  • Rudo’s tool sounds cool.

    I’ve done those conversions by hand before, just deleting irrelevant Google junk out of the KML file to import it to OsmAnd~ because I planned my route on the desktop Google Earth app (3D is cool) and exported it to KML. After some edits it usually will import to OsmAnd on the phone


  • I didn’t have to pay for it, installed from F-Droid, and I can download any map I’ve tried so far. When I’m traveling I like to pre-download the standard map for the whole state if it’s one I don’t already have installed. It’s nice to not have to worry about data / reception.

    Overall OsmAnd is a pretty good GPS-map-navigation app, but has several annoyances and bugs. Still better than using Google’s app to me. I need to check out Organic maps too














  • If you feel like you have a bunch of shit stuck on your ass, probably wipe first and then begin the spray. I wouldn’t want shit-clumps splattering all around the bowl area.

    What I do is alternate the water and the TP until the TP shows nothing but water. It may take a couple of sprays and wipes, but the end result is a much cleaner ass than wiping alone could ever accomplish. I might be using about 60% as much TP as without a bidet but I don’t care, because my ass is very clean.

    BTW this requires decent TP that will hold up to gentle wiping of wet areas, not the cheapest weakest TP will suffice.




  • No comment on your comment, except that it’s quite mild to get a mod’s attention. Having said that, I’ve had lots of comments removed around Lemmy because there are apparently a lot of mods who just want to edit the comment stream to fit their worldview. It’s pretty goddamn pathetic IMO.

    Anything the mods don’t agree with personally is liable to be deleted. It’s making Lemmy look bad with all the censorship.

    For example I posted US gov’t website info about how the poor can get free or reduced cost healthcare in the USA, and a mod removed my comment as “misinformation” because it was their opinion that there is no healthcare in the USA.

    Anybody who is afraid of reading words that they don’t agree with needs to grow up. If you don’t get exposed to opposing viewpoints, then you don’t understand reality.


  • Streaming in general is great. Streaming services are a mixed bag of results, but overall our options are excellent at this point in time. You can have streaming services with no contract, pay for one month and abandon it if you don’t like it. There are also numerous FREE streaming services with lots of great content.

    It’s important to understand the above in the context of how it used to be before Streaming was an option. There was basically only the option to have a cable or satellite TV on contract, or use OTA antenna TV, or watch everything on disc / tape. So yeah I think streaming is great.

    Having said all that, I buy anything I want to keep perpetually on disc. 4k Blu-ray for movies and CDs for music (I bought 3 albums on CD over the last couple weeks). Games don’t fit on discs anymore so I try to get stuff on GOG when it works out.
