That’s fair enough, especially as moving buildings can be quite complex.
I have ADHD too, but for me getting started is the hard part. Once I get going, I generally find mapping to be quite relaxing. I usually stick to small projects, or ones that scratch that hyperfocus itch, but then don’t go back to them for weeks 🙈
Have a look at your area on www.openstreetmap.org and see if anything is missing. You can add it to the map, and before too long, StreetComplete will have quests based on the new data.
My area had roads but very few buildings, so now I get quests for the buildings I’ve added based on data that I couldn’t see on the aerial map 🙂
Also, one big problem with this is copyright
It could work as a music sales service too though. Have software that matches the tracks in the playlist to tracks in your library, maybe with a confirmation / manual match dialogue, and a link to the equivalent of iTunes to buy any missing tracks.
Give the option to buy albums too, so if someone sends you a playlist with a new Billie Eyelash single, for example, it could also recommend the album it’s from.
For those of us with large libraries, we just match the songs, but it’s got the potential to make money for the artists too. I believe that Discogs and MusicPicard? can match tracks to albums, and link to artists stores, so at least part of the sales side exists already :)
I listened to an audiobook by Levar Burton a few days ago, and this sounds similar enough to his pattern of speech during the intro that I wouldn’t have known there was anything unusual about the AI voice. If I’d heard it read a book, I would have just assumed that the pauses were a style choice.
I like the idea of it, but I wouldn’t trust a camera from Xiaomi. I’ve got a Xiaomi Mi 10t Lite 5g phone, and the camera is a pain to use. There’s about a 50/50 chance of a photo taken using the zoom to have random artifacts over the image. I’ve had some great photos ruined by it. It happened with my wife’s Mi 10t Lite too, so it’s not just my phone.
They removed features from the software too. One of the reasons that I chose this phone was because it had a burst mode on the camera, and I had a young child. After the phone was out of warranty, one of the updates removed the burst function. It also resets the settings if you switch apps or lock the screen. I was using the star trails mode last night, and switched to an astrophotography app to check I was pointing the phone the right way, and when I switched back, the camera was back to the default settings. Not great if you want to use one of the other modes.
Nope, that’s a toastie maker, plain and simple.
I’ll accept that your first three images could get away with being called toasties, but making a sandwich with a slice of toast doesn’t count. Open topped sandwiches of any kind should be taken out and shot, however they’re prepared. I’ll give cheese on toast a pass, but only because it’s a separate category.
Just because people mistakenly call toasties ‘Jaffles’, doesn’t mean that’s what they are. It’s wrong. Wrong I tell you! Jaffle’s not even a real word!
I really want a toastie now :(
In the UK I can currently buy an 800g loaf of bread for 45p (£0.45), a 500g tub of soft spread butter substitute for 99p (£0.99), and a 200g pack of 10 cheese slices for 65p (£0.65).
Each sandwich would cost about 12p (£0.12) to make, excluding the energy costs.
Doubling up on the cheese, or using higher quality cheese would still keep it under 20p per sandwich, and that’s off the shelf costs, no bulk discounts.
Excuse me while I write up a business plan…
No! My wife calls sandwiches made with toast toasties, and it’s wrong! These bad people need to be punished
You’ve just described a toastie and toastie maker. I don’t know what this jaffle nonsense is all about, but it sounds like someone is sneaking toasties through customs in a dodgy trenchcoat!
There used to be a vending machine in a hosiptal near me that would heat up a premade grilled cheese sandwich for £2. Being a vending machine in a hospital, they had to be making at least enough to cover the costs plus wastage. I’d say that somewhere with high footfall, especially on a cold day, you could make at least some profit from this.
How big is your drawer? 0.o
I might be remembering this incorrectly, but a billion in Europe used to be a million million, and we would count in thousands of millions first, as opposed to a billion now being a thousand million.
I can’t remember whether a trillion was a million (old) billion, or whether it was a billion billion.
If Windows is dropping support for the third party drivers, why would the manufacturers bother making two sets. They would most likely just make the Store drivers with everything built in. I might be wrong, but the choice to update drivers through Windows Update isn’t granular, so if you want to update any of your drivers that way, you have to update them all.
If Lexmark, or any other manufacturer, decide to put their firmware updates in the drivers, you won’t see it when it updates through Windows, and even if you do, you’ll have to turn off driver updates for everything else to stop them.
If they were just drivers, I’d agree with you. I was looking into the Lexmark and HP continuous ink services recently, and one of them, Lexmark I think, wanted the ability to update the firmware in your printer to stop you from being able to use third party inks or toners.
Along with that, I’ve had issues in the past where a faulty driver crashed the Windows Update service. Trying to update the driver through Windows would take me to Windows Update to install the missing update before it would let me update the driver. If I couldn’t get the driver from the manufacturer’s website, I would have been stuck.
I’ve literally just realised that I’m doing it too. I bought a pair of matching monitors, set them up, then checked that the display and sound was working. It didn’t even cross my mind that they use DisplayPort. If you’d asked me five minutes ago, I probably would have said that they don’t carry sound >.<
If you haven’t already, give RawTherapee a try. I can’t compare it to Lightroom, but I find it a lot easier to use than Darktable.
