That’s interesting, thank you. I didn’t know anything about Gujarati, this is a cool opportunity to learn!

Edit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gujarati_numerals

Google translated it as “Nine days and seven days are tight”.

Does that sound like a good translation to you?

You pushed it to OsmAnd? Thank you!

I have heard “beaver fever”… but typing it out for the internet just makes it sound like a euphemism.

Let’s keep things civil everyone.

I never had success using my phone in the shower so I’m surprised to see a summary of a legal document in a shower thoughts post.

This post got reported.

The reporters are correct, you should have the entire thought in the title, then use the body to go into detail.

For example your title could have been “life is largely random circumstance, so relax”.

Shower thoughts aren’t typically advice for other people, unless you take showers with other people to save water, but it’s nice advice and it embodies the positive community that the code of conduct is designed to encourage.

Thank you. Makes perfect sense now.

I don’t follow

How do contacts work? I assume you use cheogram. Does cheogram access your phone’s contacts, or does it have a separate database of contacts?

No, more like the US’s revolution likely wouldn’t have succeeded if it wasn’t for the French support.

France’s revolution attempted for a democracy but that got twisted and they got Emperor Napoleon, so then they had to fight again.

Edit: And today the US and France are again fighting similar political battles so it feels like the strong support from a French person has a long history.

Yes, you link your OSM account to StreetComplete and it adds your contributions via your OSM account. Same with Vespucci.

When you log into OSM you can see all the contributions pushed by StreetComplete.

After reading the sidebar, I’m not sure this counts as an article. Happy to remove it.

The devs are doing a stunning job with the app so I have no qualms.

Yeah I still can’t figure out how to add a postal box in StreetComplete so I use Vespucci. But yeah Vespucci is intimidating at first

That’s a great point. I probably could have worded that differently.

It sounds like you have a lot of experiences that others could learn from, but you will likely push people away if you attack them directly (calling them extremist) rather than only attacking their positions. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem

One tactic that I like is asking them questions that lead them to point out the flaws in their own arguments. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method

Would you be more or less likely to learn from someone that calls you an extremist?

This post was reported for transphobia. Specifics weren’t given. It seems like you use the term “female” to mean someone that was assigned female at birth. I’m not sure if language is changing in this area and I certainly don’t know technical definitions. Female does seemed to be used as a gender identity as well. For example the opening paragraph here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans_woman

I think many cultures are learning how to be more welcoming to people from all walks of life, which is great, and conversations like this one are good for discussing some of the nuance.

Please keep things civil and assume the best of other’s intentions. We are all learning. We are all human.

Edit: spelling

Yeah I think this is the difference. I don’t have a strong second language so I think of infants being only the earliest stage of life. They speak some french where enfant is older than a bébé.

Does anyone else think the thumbnail looks like a llama with laser eyes?

Or maybe we could have a rule like “Any post that’s greater than 12hrs old and has less than 30% approval gets removed” I like this because it gives voting more power for shaping the community and it’s objective.
