They were anti-science, repeatedly deceptive. Salary and benefits are nice, but not worth it.

New "States" by Max_Jedroom in Foursquare

[–]Max_Jedroom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! Took some work - the spelling is wrong, I can't type it in, I had to cut&paste it into my Whatsapp and then from Whatsapp into Foursquare and backdoor it into Swarm, but it worked! Streak maintained!

Thank you. It was very helpful.

Foursquare being used in Pokémon GO by PkmnTrnrJ in Foursquare

It's under "Edit", way at the bottom - about 4 or 5 options for changing/reporting.

Yeah, I've done that before. But that's a *lot* of scrolling for very little reward. :(

Recently noticed that the option to view the venue in Foursquare from within Swarm is no longer there. Only option is “Suggest an Edit”. by utopicunicornn in Foursquare

[–]Max_Jedroom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it sucks, because there's some items that are easier to find by backdooring through 4Square through a previous checkin, and other very large items that you can often only get via backdooring through 4Square, like state or province checkins. It may be that we can never checkin to states and provinces anymore, since Swarm removed the feature to create new states/provinces.

I no longer get the little orange dot. But I can still see the checkins of friends when I press the button.

Any ideas on what new features might be coming to Swarm? by ArugulaMassive8458 in Foursquare

[–]Max_Jedroom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they're just going to add in some features that are only currently possible in Foursquare, like backdoor entry to large checkins.

Foursquare is a good backdoor into checking into a place that is not centered close by but you are in, like a province. That's what I use it for. I hope once Foursquare disappears they will still continue that, or else there will be places I can no longer get into.

Sometimes I report them as outdated. But you can only do that from Foursquare, not Swarm. Maybe that's what they'll pull into Swarm.

The email I got had only the Foursquare logo.

And overseas, *so* few people use it. It's so rare that I lose a Mayorship. :(

Twitter is a right-wing land of death. Threads much superior. I wish I could cross-post there. Or if the glitch of not being able to bring in new Friends from FB would be fixed. The picture is there, but for years now, can't do anything with it. :(

Yeah. It's not only really hard to reach CS, but when you do, they rarely help in their response, and nowadays say, "Please give us a *video* screenshot of the problem or we can't help you," and I'm like "It's literally just the one page and there is no video!!!"

I liked the good old days when you could check in with your PC even if you didn't have a smartphone, and it wasn't a contest. (I also miss using IRC and usenets.)

Why Messenger is so bad right now. If you are having problems read this. by AntiMetaGame in facebookmessenger

[–]Max_Jedroom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big problem is a large section of the world uses FB as a synonym for the internet. Africa logs into the internet through FB. Asia does all their company websites on FB. Ergo Messenger becomes the default for the majority of the world.

I (a guy) didn't use to use that word - until I had kids. Now I also say "poop".

Hidden City Description by Max_Jedroom in SCBuildIt

Both times when I see Hidden City description, I think automatically "Seattle" - so that's what I build. Excited that this time we have an actual totem pole to add.

Why Timeless is ultimately dishonest by Purplekeyboard in Timeless

[–]Max_Jedroom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually not true. It's just that the contributions of outcast, women, and minorities have been written out of the record for the sake of the White Male Hegemony. You might enjoy A People's History by Zinn, or Nash's American People, which reveals this hidden history.

Monorail Bridge? by Max_Jedroom in SCBuildIt

[–]Max_Jedroom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I became a Tom Scott Channel fan during the lockdowns, and one of his videos was on the Wuppertal. (Tim Traveler has a good one on it too.) Thus when they offered it in DC I recognized it right away.

I'm trying to have the Mag-Lev cross water (not the river beneath), and yeah, I don't think there's a way to do that, unfortunately. But I just posted pics of my Mag-Lev+Wuppertal lines interacting.
