• Dutch intelligence agency warns conspiracy theories pose ‘serious threat’

  Physically printing? Cuz the nytimes for instance just silently edits their digital articles without retaining a log of changes, and many of those changes will never be printed. Source: about 1 year ago

• NY Governor stalls right-to-repair bill; has until Dec 28 to avoid “pocket veto”

  I've also seen NYT and CNN make updates to articles that materially change the original reporting without noting the change[1], or noting the ypdateat the end of the article. Ars consistently updates the totle and has the explanation for any updates before the original report, which is beyond other news organizations since it's impossible to miss. 1.

• I wonder how far Ethan will go until the mob inevitably turns against him

  There was a website that was created years ago that documented the changes in website articles. Newsdiffs used to be updated and would catalog any and all changes to articles on the major publishers. It was really creepy. Some changes would be minor and happen within minutes.

• Biden rips GOP for not voting to raise debt limit: 'It's hypocritical, dangerous and disgraceful'

• "I'm in this picture and I don't like it"

  OsmAnd works for me. I am looking to get off Google, so I try to retire anything that is not on F-Droid. OsmAnd is a independent project ( osmand.net ) that uses the data you can also access under www.openstreetmap.org . The App is not perfect and sometimes it calls for the wrong action, for example when a road is just taking a steep turn it might ask for you to turn onto a different road which is actually the...

• WiFi without internet on a Southwest flight

  When I am on a flight and the flight does not provide the flight information, I am using the OsmAnd, https://osmand.net/, to monitor the flight altitude, speed and direction. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Improving your online privacy: An update

  Regarding usage of OpenStreetMap over Google Maps - assuming we're talking mobile usage - you might give OSMAnd[0] a try. I've been using it exclusively on a Pixel loaded with GrapheneOS for a few months now. I would never consider going back to GMaps and I don't feel that I've lost anything either.
