  • Google Maps blocks Gulf of America reviews after rename criticism

    Jump

  • The article says that for the rest of the world it still shows "Gulf of Mexico" ... I'm in the USA so I can't check. Are you saying that you are not in the USA and it shows both names?

  • Google Maps blocks Gulf of America reviews after rename criticism

    Jump

  • I'm all for dropping Google if you can, but this is not Google's fault, it's Trump's. Google is simply abiding by its policies of showing names chosen by a given country. If you're in Mexico, my understanding is that it still shows Gulf of Mexico.

    Ah, and as far as dropping Google maps... seriously, I can't find a valid alternative with real time traffic data as good as Google, free or paid, what do you suggest?

  • Yeah, if it's truly open source then I want to see the training data i.e. the "source"

  • Google Pixel 4a’s ruinous “Battery Performance” update is a bewildering mess

    Jump

  • Wait, if you had graphene I didn't think you'd get the battery crippling update right? Or are you saying that, even though you had graphene, you decided to get a free battery by reverting to stock, then (I guess) put graphene back?

  • I'm sorry, I hate what Elon is doing, with twitter/X and not only, but I call bullshit on this post, at least until further strong evidence being presented.

    I don't doubt that Elon and Xitter have been pushing his political agenda one way or another, but the post specifically calls out elizaOS and links to some github website and repo which supposedly contains "bread crumbs". All I see is an AI project that is not (directly, at least) affiliated with Elon, at least from what I could find on a quick internet search, and for sure whose employees were not X employees to be able to leave bread crumbs into. Also the supposed "bread crumb" is just some third party company/organization offering an AI agent mockingmimicking Trump where in its "bio" it says it interfered with the election? Sorry, I need stronger proof.

  • Final draft of Gaza truce deal presented after 'breakthrough'

    Jump

  • Let me know when the deal is final, accepted by both parties, nobody pulls out or unilaterally changes terms at the last second, and the deal is actually observed and enforced for at least a week. I've seen this script play out differently too many times to get excited yet...

  • Thousands of Los Angeles homeowners were dropped by their insurers before the Palisades Fire

    Jump

  • Yeah I said at least 5 years, cause I haven't been here forever, and also it seems they're getting worse in the last few years, though maybe that's just my biased perception.

  • Thousands of Los Angeles homeowners were dropped by their insurers before the Palisades Fire

    Jump

  • I think it's much simpler honestly: fires like these have been happening every year in California for the past hmm... at least 5 years, maybe more. Insurances are simply catching on and doing what any for-profit company would do in this situation, avoid losing money.

  • Vest way to host nextcloud that isn't the all in one container?

  • Same, I use the fpm-alpine image with mariadb, though if I had to start today I'd probably pick postgres instead. Other images are probably fine too.

  • Who is Iyah May? Singer loses contract over "Karmageddon" song

    Jump

  • She might have picked a side, but I can't be 100% sure of which one just from the lyrics. In fact, if anything, it seems she hasn't picked a side: she sides with one on some issues (e.g. Israel) and with the other on other issues (e.g. cancel culture).

    As a result, she's probably angering both sides, which maybe was the whole point, who knows.

  • Who is Iyah May? Singer loses contract over "Karmageddon" song

    Jump

  • Alright, I know nothing about this person or the song, but I went to read the article to see where it says she is an "anti-vaxxer" and a "musk fan", as well as "against Israel's genocide":

    In the song, May rails against "big pharma," a "man-made virus," "cancel culture," and a war that she brands "genocide."

    This is the only passage I could find that remotely hints about her stance about those things and I see the controversial "man-made virus" line, but that just means she believes the virus was man-made, e.g. it came from Wuhan's lab, which is a hypothesis that was seriously considered, though still found less likely than the zoonotic one.

    Nothing there says she's against vaccines. It does say she's against Israel's genocide though, assuming that's the war being referred here (lyrics seem to confirm that).

    Searching for "vax" or "vaccine" in the entire article yields nothing.

    Searching for "musk" yields this verse in the lyrics:

    Mr. Musk, he said some s***, the lefts are angry

    Which... doesn't seem to imply she's a fan either (she might be, mind you, but one can't conclude that from this article).

    So, when reading an article, let's not extrapolate beyond what's reasonable.

  • From the article:

    It’s unclear whether that will change under Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to run the US Department of Health and Human Services. Kennedy has called for getting rid of dyes and other ingredients linked to cancer that can be found in food and has said the US needs tougher regulators that aren’t as close to the industries they police.

    I guess even a broken clock is right twice a day ... hopefully he makes that happens.

  • Self hosted solution for phone photo backup

    Jump

  • And you don't have your notification bar on the phone full of upload errors?

    I get a bunch of upload errors for photos that I delete or move before nextcloud has a chance to upload them, those are safe to ignore. Not sure which errors you're getting...

    Can you get to older photos in under an hour, while Nextcloud slowly loads one thumbnail per second?

    Forget about the plain nextcloud photos app, use the Memories app (incl. the android app).

    Not as good as immich, from what I understand, but if you already have nextcloud, or need more than just photos, it works well.

    It is really unbeleviable how there are some people for whom Nextcloud just works, and the rest of us.

    It's definitely not perfect, but since I was able to set it up to work well for me, I'm keeping it, at least until I have time to install immich and figure out how to sync the two (and maybe get a more powerful server to use its ML features). I'm currently running it off of a decade old chromebox ...
