Bike parking — followed by outdoor dining — generates the most revenue for local businesses, nearly double the amount generated from on-street private car storage 👏 We need to inform local businesses of these facts, but also need SFMTA to make quick decisions based off of them.

Does anyone know of a site that exposes dating scammers? I've got several of them by the balls.

An example of how #osm2gmaps will bridge the gap between #navigation applications in next release. This protects your #privacy if you use open-source applications and makes your life easier in all cases! Here, by clicking on a #GoogleMaps link, osm2gmaps opens #OrganicMaps, the app I use every day for navigation.

lmao Pokémon Go players are inputting fake data on OpenStreetMap so they can catch some pokemon on their backyards and parks. https://www.404media.co/pokemon-go-players-invent-fake-beaches-on-real-maps-to-catch-rare-wigletts/

Everyone should immediately stop contributing to the stack overflow and its network. The human touch is what made it unique. Delete your profile from SO AND all your answers. Freeloaders are making money out of human contributions.

@nixCraft I never expected to get paid for my SO answers. I wrote them so freeloading developers could freeload on me. I always expected SO as a site would make a few bucks to run the show. My answers were my donation to the universe. What’s the problem here again?

@nixCraft a potential alternative is Codidact, which is essentially a Stack Exchange clone only open source and run by a not-for-profit. It was started up a few years back by ex StackOverflow moderator Monica Cellio (who was fired by SO in another one of their faux pas moments).

Working on #osm2gmaps v0.5.0, you will be able to get converted links details in history Gonna work on a custom link constructor now, but don't know if this will be for v0.5.0 or v0.6.0 🙆♂️

I could add analytics on my Android app #osm2gmaps, with my own #Matomo server that I already have, but I don't want to. But I just would like to know how many persons downloaded it, but I can't with #FDroid 😭

Par ailleurs, La Quadrature du Net vient de déposer une plainte à la @CNIL contre un déploiement de la VSA totalement illégal et resté largement sous les radars : le projet Prevent PCP. Voici le texte de la plainte : https://www.laquadrature.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2024/05/01-LQDN_CNIL_Plainte_Prevent_PCP_anon.pdf

The results are in, after seeing about 800 boosts on the post to see how the Mastodon embed actually affects our server load. Here's what happened....basically nothing for us.

@gamingonlinux it's kinda funny that instead of hiring someone to submit a patch for their issue, #itsfoss decided to publish the article about their technical problems The article reads superficial, like vague request for commercial proposal but for free lol > #Mastodon instance admins, please fix our computer, or else we'll stop reposting to your social network Folks, this is not journalism...
Grampa
@gamingonlinux There’s a lot missing here. How many CPU cores? Is this normalized load? What was the latency? Were there timeouts? Why are you looking at ~10 minute intervals when the reported problem is with spikes of ~1 minute? Very “works on my machine” type post
retiolus
There are so many ways they could fix this (some of which would make the site a better experience for users, too!) it's laughable that they're putting this out there. Somebody there doesn't know what they're doing, obviously (and some of the comments are indeed calling them out on that already)

@LukeBornheimer you’re getting charged to park bikes?
@LukeBornheimer
This gives very little information for making across the board conclusions. There are two more links within the link you provided that explain just how complicated it is. A lot of variables are factored in such as location and access - whether walking or biking paths are highly available in the given areas, or if it’s more accessible to cars. The type of areas make a difference, as well as how far they’re coming from, what types of businesses they’re visiting, how long they’ll be there, how much they’re planning on spending (it’s always about money).
Bottom line, according to the info within each of the three links, is that it’s mixed.
There are WAY too many variables to conclude this is a *one size fits all* answer.
Unfortunately a lot of people won’t read further than the headline.
It seems like generally speaking it would be a good idea to mix it up: offer something for everyone. I’m absolutely pro-bike, but each of these options have value.

No one should ever need to pay for parking their bike. Make car parking crazily expenaive instead.
