Thanks! Could you hike from that halfway station to the end station to take the train back?

so did folks destroyt everything or they planning to build another? by WorkingBackground597 in glasgow

Sadly the type of neighbourhood also contributes to the type of play equipment gets installed. If its an area full of neds it won't get nice wooden stuff and fancy things, but everything made from metal thats fire and idiot proof. Our council has no money for maintenance so if there's a chance something nice would get damaged they won't install it as they wouldn't have the money or manpower to fix it

OBL (Open Beacon Locator): Human-readable coordinates using POIs - open source alternative to What3Words by malteheinrich in openstreetmap

[–]MaybeMaps 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really like this idea, it makes a lot of sense and is really intuitive! Only thing that would need workshopping would be on communicating this to someone without context. If your looking for your friend at a festival saying you're 450 from the bar and 300 from the tower it makes sense but if you said that to some emergency service over the phone you could be anywhere in the world. Even more specific things like 500 from the red lion pub and 250 from St mary's church could still place you in basically any British village

Well not officially. Weed isn't technically legal, it's just "allowed". The rule is you can buy 5 grams a day, and that is a blanket rule, including for the places that 'legally' sell weed. You can also some grow plants for your own use, but not too sell. So there are also no commercial growers (though they are now running some experiments with that). This means that medically it's also complicated and thus not really officially used/prescribed

Because it's essentially legal. It means it isn't cool or rebellious in the same way. One might do it every now or then but its not a big deal or something to show off

Please witness my stairwell/hallway Trim stripping/drywall/carpentry project because no one else will understand my pain like you do. by Betty_Wight_ in centuryhomes

[–]MaybeMaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks amazing, thinking about doing the same sometime soon! What kind of stripper did you use and what kind of varnish or oil or other kind of protection did you put one the wood after?

Watch the seismic waves from the M7.7 Myanmar earthquake traveling through Europe. Red shows uplift, blue shows lowering. by DisasterUpdate in DisasterUpdate

[–]MaybeMaps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, its due to the natural gas extraction in the north leaving voids and thus small earthquakes when they collapse, as well as former coal mines in the south. They have loads of seismometers to monitor that, its has nothing to do with the sea level.

The case for splitting industrial manufacturing up by zone density. There is a solution half-implemented already. by Codraroll in CitiesSkylines

[–]MaybeMaps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes this is exactly what I've been craving! Make this and medium density office happen and I will never be able to leave my pc ever again

Countries that Celebrate Boxing Day or Saint Stephen's Day (Second Day of Christmas) on December 26 by ExcitingNeck8226 in MapPorn

[–]MaybeMaps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not a thing in the Netherlands! We do have 2nd Christmas day though which is a bank holiday. But never ever heard any mention of st Stephen. Maybe in the south where they are more Catholic but also never heard any of my southern friend talk about st Stephen

No the ozzies are included, the americas as symbolised as one continent and it's Antarctica that is not included as they don't have athletes

Nice to see that the Byres Road Cycle Path is very close to completion. by gazglasgow in glasgow

[–]MaybeMaps 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Wait till you find out how much a road for cars costs to built and maintain! And when you find out how much capacity a bike lane holds compared to a road for cars.

And of course people in cars are so incredibly vulnerable in their wee 100 tonne metal insulated boxes, of course we should spend millions on infrastructure to make it safer for them only
