My wife is from Italy, so I printed out a topo of the valley where she grew up. It took me a long time to figure out how to change to the European projection in the software I was using, and I didn’t write down how I did it; unfortunately I’m not sure I can figure out it again! There’s a digital elevation TIFF of the whole EU available online, even Czechia! If you want to make it a project, I can point you in the right direction and give you some pointers on converting to a obj file to print. I found a couple websites that went through the process, but I didn’t find their directions very complete and had to figure a lot out myself.

I got addicted to converting USGS and European digital elevation data to 3d topo map prints; I just think they’re neat!

This is our recent creation!

I agree. I’m a later born Gen Xer (mid 70s) and generally like Bill Burr; this trailer looks painfully tedious.

SAY OUR NAME, SAY OUR NAME!

It is very good.

I thought “chat” with a hard “t” in French meant “piss”, cat is pronounced “cha”. I was told this by a French speaker when I was talking about a “chat noir” poster, using a hard “t” and they said “you’re sayong black piss! The “t” is silent for cat”.

Can anyone confirm? I feel this is important for this post, “chat gpt” could mean “piss, I farted”

Here’s the farmer’s website that used to supply the peppers to Sriracha; they sell their own sauce now:

I was told this product is made by the farmer that supplied peppers to sriracha; I haven’t tried it yet.

I had no idea this existed, thank you so much!

That’s a good idea. I should do that. Also, thanks for being someone who understands wanting to search stuff while in the turn by turn mode. It’s hard to explain WHY I would need this, but it seems like something I experience at least once a week.

I think we agree on that point, as I started.

Well, unfortunately I don’t have wireless AA, so the cable can sometimes be an issue. Beyond that, they aren’t huge issues, but if I need to look something up in maps it won’t let me. I know, I’m not supposed to use while driving, but if I’m at a light and I want to do a quick detour search I can’t use the handheld (dash interface isn’t as easy to use as handheld). The contact search\phone app doesn’t work as easily for me and I find the voice search to be spotty.

Like I said not big issues, but mostly just preference; I’d rather have my phone separate and free from restriction as I only use the maps through AA. My phone calls and audiobooks\podcasts we’re always fine through Bluetooth.

I’m not sure a lot of you are reading that they are replacing ACP and AA with built in Google apps, including Google maps for navigation; they aren’t eliminating the functionality, they are replacing it.

I think I would prefer this over slaving my phone to the car because there are some real annoying things about AA when I try to use it while connected to my car. The only big question is: do they require separate Internet connection or can I use my unlimited data plan phone as a hotspot. Having to pay for more connection services would piss me off, however I read somewhere a few weeks back that connecting to the Internet via a hotspot was supported.

Yes my Gboard swipe is definitely worse than before. It won’t remember custom words anymore, sometimes decides to not recognize my swipe and just adds the first letter, and gives wrong suggestions more and more, even when I know my swipe pattern is correct.

Swipe was by far the best. Why did they discontinue development? To much competition?

I’m not sure she’s correct about milk melting faster than cream or that the “deflates” if you whip too much air into it.

One of the three main differences between the ice cream and gelato is air content. ice cream has more air and doesn’t loose it over night; it would be bubbly too with all the air escaping. Gelato melts quicker because it is served 10 to 15 degrees F warmer than ice cream (this main differences).

Low air content and warmer temp is why gelato is smoother.

No, I’m on liftoff. It’s working now, I think it was during a DDOS attack out other funniness Lemmy.world was experiencing.

That is 100% a dorm room
