It's prohibited to sell highway vignettes for more than what the state charges on the official website (which is not a lot) but the scammers in border regions obviously found ways around that by charging huge service fees for an automated process (other than typing a licence plate) or using a ridiculous € conversion rate, and marking their shack more prominently than the official vending machines found on all highways close to border crossings. Not a great first impression for visitors!
Yup. Another Czech on their own instance(s) is @dominik@chrastecky.dev aka @rikudou@lemmings.world. You are correct, a weird cultural thing we have is thinking our country is smaller and less significant than it really is, and I'm also guilty of this.
Is there a tool to automatically check partitions for excessive log files, caches or other junk? The root partition of a Linux box I have is 60 GiB and almost full, and XFCE will fail to start when there's no space. I would use WinDirStat on Windows but the Linux alternatives can't do the job properly because they scan by file tree and some subdirectories of / are on other partitions because of symlinks... I guess I could boot a live USB and mount my ext4 root partition but not the NTFS storage one but I'd rather avoid that.
Proposal: OpenCampaignMap, software that fetches OpenStreetMap data for a bounding box and provides a rectangle with corresponding TTRPG features. Any size from a village to a continent.
Sure but there is a huge step between not being able to drive the way one wants and where one wants. The cost is also vastly different: human drivers in cars are inherently dangerous and kill 40k people every year in the US. Of course this can be reduced with current technology by incentivizing alternatives to driving.
Microsoft replaced fdisk with diskpart.exe in Windows 2000. I can't imagine how bad the former must have been to warrant that switch. (Or was it super-early enshittification?)
I didn't like the last one. Sure, corpos would love to create a society akin to the one described but the way the story is framed, it's as if driving one's own car is the main tenet of freedom.
Try integrating with OpenStreetMap Traces and Tapiriik for ease-of-use. Recommend running your own instance for the latter. Not necessarily for the minimum viable product but consider this into the future.
Good bike computers like Garmin's allow GPX export so HW compatibility is there. It's a few manual steps but you can make the process automatic for example by syncing your HW tracker to Tapiriik (15+ brands supported), which then can auto-download GPX files to your computer via Dropbox (or without Dropbox if you run it locally), and then you can auto-upload those to OSM with one of these scripts running on your machine.
The map is a community effort and the lack of social features, which caters to introverts, keeps focus on the end goal - an accurate map of the world. Other platforms are suitable for social activities and you can link to your OSM trace from there.
Yes, seeing the trace geometry only with no map is a letdown. That's why I suggested the visualizer in another comment. It would certainly improve the shareability of traces.
OSM doesn't produce any hardware. They are a wiki-based world mapping effort. In addition, they run a PNG tile provider (so you can embed their map on a website), an article wiki for how to edit the map etc. and the trace repository.
You can use OSM and record traces using various apps mentioned on their wiki.
I think it's lowercase (fUCK)
