  • I assume they take digital maps when possible. Most countries will have digital maps of their territories, be it for military use or research or other. And many companies do to. Digital car navigation existed before google maps and logistics companies for sure had digital maps as well.

    For some parts I am pretty sure they just scan paper maps and convert it by hand.

    Of course all of that is some sort of “maping”. My previous comment was slightly clickbaity. But the process is still, Maps first, satellite later and not the other way round.

    Not really. There was a lawsuit that claimed they contain no tuna. A lab found no tuna DNA, a different lab did. The lawsuit shifted to “does not contain only this type if tuna”.

    Also highly processed food (especially after it was cooked) does not contain any DNA that is identifiable.

    The question is about which is worse: do you what kids to suffer to make sure nobody can enrich themselves. Or do you allow some scumbags through the net but no child goes hungry?

    Ideally of course you could have both but that would first require a few guillotined politicians and capitalists.

    You almost never reach the people that are in control. They sit behind layers and layers of institutional protection, physical walls and rows of people with guns.

    Demonstrations, protests, hostage takings. Always inconveniences the common people more directly than the elites in charge.

    That’s what’s so interesting about recent news… it actually reached the CEO






  • Ask yourself the question why people “become” tall, small, blonde, blue eyed, have a certain ethnicity, …

    They dont become! They are! (I am mostly gonna use gay as an example but the same applies to all lgbtq+ people in the same way)

    The reason it seems like people “become” gay is because sexuality is something that develops during puberty. The same way tall people don’t get born tall, but grow to be tall. However they never choose to or worked towards being tall.

    If you ever heard something like “XYZ is turning the kids gay!”, its a lie. Differently to being tall, sexuality is something internal, something you feel. And many people are being told that what they feel is wrong. So they believe it is wrong and surpress what they feel. This leads to misserabke lives, depression and often violent/abusive relationships because they are internaky unhappy. If you tell them it is okay to feel what they feel, they are more likely to accept who they are.

    So telling people that it is okay to be lgbtq+ leads to more people being openly lgbtq+. They always were. They didn’t “turn gay”. They just didn’t lie to themselves and surpress it.

    They might not know there are alternatives. So they likely do not ccomplain to their IT person.

    Dont be a “jUsT uSe LiNuX” guy, but when you see them frustrated maybe say “hey I see you are frustrated as well and I as a patient are concerned about my medical data privacy. You know there are better and safer alternatives, maybe you could ask your IT if it would be possible to switch to Linux?”

    Realistically, they can’t switch because the software to use some $€1m medical device only runs on windows.
