It sounds like you're both talking past each other re: is it the "share on Facebook" tracking thing, or the smartphone "share" button that is just how you export a file these days.

Thank you for the rant, all the context is very informative!

Could you tell me what anti-HSR means in this context? I couldn't figure it out :p

I really wish there was a series like xanth with the puns and zany world-building, but none of the gross stuff :/

No problem, i was just writing out the acronym once i figured it out in case it helped others.

Thanks for explaining the other parts too

ANC = active noise canceling

What is IEM?

How expensive would that setup be? I have $30 Bluetooth Earbuds that sound like crap and the microphone is awful, but they do have Tile built-in.

(altho they have also recently said there would be no referendum on independence as long as trump is in power,

What is the thinking behind that?

and most of the quebec population is against independence right now)

You might know of Organic Maps, the open source app that's an alternative to Google Maps. Recently, concerns have been raised about its governance, with many contributors questioning the project's transparency and direction.

Despite being advertised as a community-driven project, key decisions, including financial management, partnerships (with Kayak, for instance), and the inclusion of proprietary components in the code were made by a small group of shareholders, often without input from the broader contributor community.

These shareholders have reportedly used the project’s donation funds for personal expenses, like holiday trips, raising serious concerns about financial transparency.

As a result, many contributors teamed up and forked the project, establishing CoMaps, a new alternative focused on openness and being not-for-profit.

People did know about the genocide in WWII. They were flying planes over the camps. But when the soldiers arrived and took pictures the world learned the horrifying details.

Is the signature feature that women initiate or was that some other app?
