  • How to move from Google Maps to OpenStreetMap

    Jump

  • I moved to OSMand a while ago, but have a couple of things that stop me switching over completely. Like others, traffic would be the main one.

    On a few occasions been caught in unusual traffic, eg when there's a crash, or when there's an event on. So when I need a more accurate ETA I still need to fire up Waze or Google Maps.

    I do also miss the near-realtime reports in Waze - object on road, mobile speed camera etc, as well as the constantly-updating traffic of course.

    Oh another thing that would be good, is accounting for rules that vary by time of day, day of week, number of passengers, or type of vehicle. Eg school zones, or transit lanes, bus lanes that allow motorcycles at certain times, etc. It might already do this and I've just missed it.

    There are some UI annoyances in OSMand too, but those are mostly subjective, and will hopefully improve in time.

  • Gotcha, and apologies for missing your point.

    I agree 100%, the privacy and security tradeoffs are enormous and concerning.

  • By all means call out if I've misunderstood, but the tracking vulnerability isn't that BLE (by design) makes devices visible to everyone within range, it's that by binding an unclaimed device to an account you gain the ability to look up that device via Google's service, rather than needing to be nearby - you can simply ask Google to call on its global network to find "your" device. In other words, there's nothing stopping me from setting an alert when a given BT device is nearby, that's spot on, but I can't fire up Google to look up that device when I'm not nearby, or look up its location history.

    And yes needing to have never been connected to an Android device definitely reduces the victim pool, but (and to address the other reply) I'm guessing it'd mean devices that have only ever been connected to iOS, Linux, Windows etc aren't "claimed" and can still be enrolled by the attacker. It's not about default creds, only having used devices that don't enrol with Google is enough, as it leaves the device available to claim.

    3.5mm ftw and all that, but I doubt all the parents of teenagers with potentially vulnerable devices will have much luck convincing their kids to switch!

  • If you want to listen to their mic via bluetooth or whatever, yes. But there's also this:

    Some devices also support Google's Find Hub network. This enables users to find their lost accessories using crowdsourced location reports from other Android devices. However, if an accessory has never been paired with an Android device, an attacker can add the accessory using their own Google account. This allows the attacker to track the user via the compromised accessory.

  • My dad was the opposite thankfully! He taught me to drive in the bush, on the beach etc, well before legal driving age, as soon as I could reach the pedals, and taught me to ride a dirt bike when he scored one small enough for me for cheap. He also taught basic repairs, we were not wealthy so everything we had needed fixing pretty regularly lol.

    For him it was a father/son bonding thing, and we both loved it. I still have a love of cars and bikes which I suspect stems from those early experiences.

    I have to assume too that learning the road rules and the like was a lot easier without needing to learn driving basics at the same time. Why most places seem to teach "car control" and "road rules and traffic" together is beyond me.

  • English is my native language. I have on more than one occasion gone blank trying to think of a word, only to remember it in Japanese. Which is particularly amusing when it's the kana-ised version of the English word I had forgotten.

  • How many minutes in travel until you are no longer close to a place

    Jump

  • Lots of variables here including why I'm travelling and whether the trip itself is enjoyable.

    Generally though, I'd say In the city, probably 30 min on foot or 15 min otherwise. In the sticks, if you can make it back before the next mealtime you're still "close".
