Yeah true. Can’t give you a list to pick from I guess haha, just annoying that I know the countries but sometimes can’t spell them!

Yeah I guess they have limited resources, and their aim is to have the older games work on modern PCs. Not sure when you were doing this but I can absolutely understand that Windows 7 compatibility isn’t a focus for them in 2026 since MS support ended in 2023.

A significant number of games released before 2005 had digital releases later. It’s basically GOGs whole thing.

Damn I didn’t realise it was timed. Trying to do all that typing on mobile was a bit slow, I only got to 80 before running out of time, and still hadn’t done Europe and only started on Africa.

A bit rough they make you spell them all!

I live in a country with free healthcare and private health insurance. I even have private health insurance. But I have it through a nun-profit organisation that pays out ninety-something cents in claims for every dollar of premiums paid. So I’m ok with it.

My phone changes lenses automatically as I zoom the camera in and out. So I use them even though I’m not really actively choosing to use a different lens.

It pretty much always was?

It’s a tertiary source, so not appropriate for citing in your essays, but that isn’t a comment on the accuracy.

I work with someone whose job involves writing design documents. They have Copilot write it and then send it out for other people to review, and you can tell they haven’t even read it themselves.

Then in meetings they talk with confidence about things, you think it doesn’t sound right and ask for a link to learn more, and they admit they just asked Copilot.

Like I am not sure what this person does themselves because they seem to be farming out the entire core part of their job.

At least they live by their rules.

Yeah active. Sorry I wasn’t clear, it was obvious why the army guys could beat me, they odd thing was that I could beat most everyone else.

When I was in university I could beat anyone in an arm wrestle except for the army guys, and it was never that clear to me why.

Refusing to engage with a defiant printer sounds pretty smart TBH.

Just that first thing

You could say they are on the far-right side of history 🙃

Ah right. Yeah we don’t have a lot those, we have a hub and spoke system of commuter trains, with gaps filled with busses.

Wellington is services by a couple of weekday trains from neighbouring cities, that are each approx 2 hours away (slow ones, travelling around 150km distance in that time). Of those trains, one only runs once a day and not at all on weekend, and the other is only like 4 a day and 2 on weekends. Intercity rail is not that good here. You can get Wellington<->Auckland (two biggest cities) but it’s priced for tourists not commuters (goes pasts mountains etc). Plus is a whole day’s travel, we don’t have fast trains.

In Wellington, NZ is the busses and trains are often late, but they run every 5-20 mins and they have electronic boards telling you when they are estimated to arrive based on real time tracking, so it’s not a big deal when you can just show up and one won’t be far away.

Interesting! I know if you look back at changes in my country you can see where someone has done a massive automated load of buildings (addresses as well as the actual shape of buildings) from data published by a government department, so I guess I’m quite privileged to have such good data. I’ve corrected some but it’s been at the level of it tagging a garage instead of the house, it’s always close to correct. The main issue I have is searching up a business by name, they are only in there 2/3 of the time, but I go and add them if they aren’t.

I feel very lucky!

When I put in an address it directs me straight to the right building. Sometimes I have to go on a place’s website to find that address but most of the time I can search by name.

Does your area need better Open Street Map data? Might need to contribute 🙂. I tend to write down anything that didn’t work so I can go and update it, but it’s clear there are many people in my area contributing.

Oh for sure, and Organic Maps was a fork too. Open Source is awesome 🙂.

I reckon whoever that team member was introducing them all to CoMaps is probably familiar with the Fediverse, and may even be watching us now 👀
