Paid to Cycle, Forced to Biodiversify, and Banned from Smoking (urbanismnow.substack.com)
 

Hey folks,

As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm starting an urbanism newsletter with links to content from around the world to inspire local change. It's a bit of self promotion but I think it's quite relevant to the community here.

If you have any articles (especially outside the US/Euro realm) you think are worth sharing please let me know! Also, would love if there are any short story fiction writings that you can recommend that are related.

Thanks!

Maybe it's just that my computer is slow but it seems much faster for scrolling around the map.

What are your favorite (non-US/Euro) urbanism news sources? Starting a newsletter. (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi everyone,

I'm starting an urbanism newsletter. tl;dr: Once a week roundup of urbanism news from around the world to help spread great ideas and inspire local change. You can see the longer version in the first post.

A big part of the purpose is making these ideas accessible to people who don't want to deal with the endless social media but would want a short update each week.

Anyway, I'm looking for sources about urbanism related news. We have more than enough US/Euro content but want to include things from other parts of the world in every issue. Do you have any favorite outlets or writers who are covering related topics in your area?

I generally only map in places where I am or have been but I definitely would be careful about using it in places with bad imagery.

AI stuff aside, the tool is so so much faster than iD it's kinda crazy.

Heritage Foundation plans to ‘identify and target’ Wikipedia editors in c/[email protected]

What solution would you propose? I assume the main problem is that it supposedly limits Wikipedia's ability to ban people that would otherwise just make another account? Maybe they could limit VPN editing to accounts with 500 edits or whatever.

In any case now seems like a great time to prod them to reconsider this policy.

I know the author wants to move to vector maps which could make it much easier for someone to selfhost something like that.

Might be worth mentioning your feedback on related issues (or creating them). The dev has been very responsive to feedback in the past.

Same... Though with the latest Android it's been so buggy I gave Smart Launcher a try for the past few months and have mostly been happy with it. It's annoying that I can't easily have 3 screens with one in the center being the start but I got over it.

If your laptop supports esim you can checkout https://esimdb.com/ which as a pretty comprehensive list. Most of these are prepaid for X months and you get Y GB of data. So could fit what you need.

What is your use case for navigating? I feel like if I'm in a new place OrganicMaps isn't so great for discovering POI. But if I'm in a place I already know decently it's pretty rare I need navigation anyway. I'd like to use OrganicMaps more though :)
