I can’t find the community forum thread where I originally learned about it, but here’s a BBC article discussing the downstream fallout for apps that use OSM data.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you have trouble explaining your job to people?
7·2 years agoYes. I’m a near surface geophysicist. So I don’t look for oil or minerals but I do try to figure out what’s going on underground without digging. Mostly looking for mine or karst voids under new construction.
I’m not from Canada, but because I have the natural human instinct to help people
I have the same reaction to nonplussed

2·2 years agoI should definitely check out the varied cotton or linen weaves, then! I mainly wear a very light button down polyester for field work because of the benefits I mentioned and durability. I do a good bit of walking through thick brush and it’s nice that it doesn’t “pull” too much.

10·2 years agoAs someone who sweats a lot and works outside in brutal heat, I find the complete opposite is true regarding cotton vs polyester. Polyester wicks away the sweat and evaporates quickly, while cotton just soaks and turns hot, wet, and heavy.
I wish it were the opposite so that I could use less plastic overall, but I haven’t found that to be the case.
Either way, a loose fit and complete skin coverage from the sun is essential.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the most painful thing you've experienced ?
4·2 years agoSciatic pain is the worst. Only had what I would consider really bad once (maybe another 2-3 with fainter intense pain lasting a few weeks), but it can bring me to tears. Lying in bed trying to find a position for a moment of respite but it never comes
I don’t disagree on the Patreon app point, but I sub to like 6 podcasts and never visit the app or website. For me it’s very much an RSS feed experience via my preferred podcast app.
