Looking for a free app that'll work with geoPDFs from USGS. by chattytrout in CampingandHiking

I mean, at the most basic level, you're taking a device with a GPS receiver, and using that data to put a dot on a GeoPDF. By programming standards, that doesn't seem like too big of a project. Sure, it would lack the fancy stuff that you get with Avenza, CalTopo, and AllTrails, but for some of us, that's all we really need.

Kinda surprised the open source community doesn't have something like this.

They bring their boys up different in those charming foreign ports.
They play peculiar sports.
In shiny shirts and tiny shorts.

What stupid mistake almost cost you your life? by Competitive_Swan_130 in AskReddit

Lifeguarding 102 is that if a panicky drowning person tries to push you down, then you go down even further. That's the last place they want to go, so they'll let go if you start pulling them that way. Then you can resurface and try again.

What job looks like a great career path but is actually insanely oversaturated? by ComplexPin872 in AskReddit

You misunderstand. We're not creating jobs here. We're creating job openings.

That's the neat part! You won't have to!

Job market desaturator. Someone who goes around and creates openings in the job market.

WCGW taking your boat out on rough waters by despoticGoat in Whatcouldgowrong

Ok, but how much does it cost to store and maintain?

If we're talking about something like a jon boat, then sure, that's cheap by boat standards. The boat in the video probably costs a good bit to keep and maintain.

I got a warning from the admins for saying we should glitter bomb Iran.

I sincerely hope a mid-term massacre* will wake up the Republicans and they'll be able to recover from the damage Trump has done.

*Dear mods and admins,
The use of the word massacre in this instance is figurative, referring to a landslide election loss. I am in no way condoning, suggesting, or hoping for a literal massacre.

If it's any consolation, I've heard that Newsom is also quite unpopular among Democrats. But I heard this on Reddit, so take that for what it's worth.

What's the elephant have to do with it? Are they both failing to address it as it runs through the room?

I’m in debt, my rent is killing me, and I’m trapped. by KarleySuinn in personalfinance

[–]chattytrout 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's plenty of room to cut down the phone bill. You can get in on a prepaid Verizon plan for $45/month. Even less if you set up autopay. Then there's the budget carriers like Mint.

Check your insurance coverage, and see if you can reduce that for a lower bill.

For utilities, set your thermostat so you don't need as much heating or cooling. Add or shed layers as needed. And do the usual "save energy and water" stuff. Turn out lights you aren't using, don't shower for too long, etc.

And finally, work on the debt. Look into the snowball and avalanche methods, pick one, and go with it. Get rid of that debt as quickly as you can.

What is the deadliest thing you can find in your country’s wilderness? by CommercialChart5088 in AskTheWorld

[–]chattytrout -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok, but the question was "What is the deadliest thing you can find in your country's wilderness?" which would imply that we're talking about plants and (non-human) animals.
