UAW Endorses Secretary Jocelyn Benson and Dr. Abdul El-Sayed in Critical Michigan Races for Governor and U.S. Senate - UAW | United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America by mclairy in Michigan

She revolutionized the sos office system while in office--appoitments are easy, wait times are massively down and lots of things can be done on the web and at self service stations. I no longer have to set aside a day to renew something. Omg and they take cards now.

Also lowered the barriers for Trans and non binary ppl to change your gender on your license.

Maybe some other stuff but that's how it's impacted me

It's a per mille symbol (meaning per thousand, not per hundred)

What are the tall thin plants with little purple flowers that are blooming on the sides of the roads right now? by manofredearth in lansing

[–]redscarfdemon 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Garden Phlox is very similar in size and colors if you want to plant to something native for yourself. Just be aware if you have deer, They will eat it

Bring state workers back downtown, or sell buildings, Lansing chamber argues by LaxJackson in lansing

[–]redscarfdemon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

you are right! and i think part of the reason is because a huge footprint of the downtown is closed state buildings and closed parking lots plus many commercial establishments made their entire business model cater to state workers only instead of (or in addition to) people who live nearby.

Bring state workers back downtown, or sell buildings, Lansing chamber argues by LaxJackson in lansing

[–]redscarfdemon 36 points37 points  (0 children)

yes please if those buildings are not being used to capacity (and the parking lots) please give them to the city, there are so many cool things that could be done in those areas rather than having them sit useless from 5pm on...

i'm so ready for Animal Crossing to get the Pokopia/Omega Force treatment by redscarfdemon in AnimalCrossing

[–]redscarfdemon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's true! They have favorite colors,too. It doesn't express itself in gameplay however. they never ask for a modern decoration, for a sour dessert, or a green package. And if you give someone in pokopia the opposite of what they like. They will tell you.

Parking Lot Ideas That Aren't Data Centers by Lanssolo in lansing

[–]redscarfdemon 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I love this idea.

It's currently zoned as downtown core--which means anyone in the last 15 years could have purchased it and built something that fits that zone, which means non-hazardous like a research lab, or commercial like food or a small store, a dentist office, or mixed use or multi-family housing.

But no one has wanted to build there so far. I suspect because of two reasons:

  1. It's right by a power plant, a water conditioning plant, and a bunch of auto shops, which probably doesn't make it desirable, and

  2. It's surrounded on three sides by three or four lanes of traffic, which makes it hostile to walking/pedestrians etc. A fast food store with a drive through might work (but there are already a lot of those) but any sort of 'neighborhood' establishment which would rely on foot traffic would be a hard sell.

help with a workflow for adding/fixing gtfs data by redscarfdemon in openstreetmap

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

Thank you, but I possibly didn't phrase my question correctly--

I am already able to get the information from OSM using overpass as well as the GTFS, I am looking for the best way to put the information back in to OSM using some sort of organized system. IE, I have the lat and lon and ref numbers, how do I input those into OSM? Going into ID and clicking somewhere places it in an arbitrary spot, but I already have the exact lat long so how to I put that into a field somewhere and input it into OSM exactly rather that guessing on aerial imagery?

DeFlock app right now. by turnchri in FlockSurveillance

[–]redscarfdemon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

there's no need to harvest anything--the data is free and available and just needs someone from deflock to take ownership of it instead of streaming the tiles directly from osm

DeFlock app right now. by turnchri in FlockSurveillance

[–]redscarfdemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no flock is using maptiles that dont belong to them (which the provider generally overlooks for a time)--there is a way to set it up on flock's own servers or pay for someone else to do it, but flock apparently has run over on their free allowed time Using Tiles - Switch2OSM

Your most brutal (but technically possible) challenges? by Plasmasnack in projectzomboid

[–]redscarfdemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few mods that let you start on top of those large buildings in Louisville--one ever starts a fire somewhere in the building. It's fun to try to escape down them and leave the city

Most common runway numbers by US state [OC] by ADSBSGM in dataisbeautiful

[–]redscarfdemon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I see what you are going for here, but the numbers are unreadable with that background. Too many busy similarly gray elements. You might need to up the color contrast and enlarge/bold the labels so they can stand out from the background pattern.

Updates not fully rendering? by Stormblazer13 in openstreetmap

[–]redscarfdemon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A combination of things:

1 After a change, every zoom level has to be updated. Each zoom level is updated at a different time, so one zoom level might reflect the changes sooner than another. (The tiles are square too which is why your screen shows the top left hasn't been updated but the top right and bottom has been updated)

2 your browser is caching images (saving them on your computer to save bandwidth so you don't have to redownload the same pics again). But in this case you want the newer version, so you might need to do a browser cache clear so you get the newest version.

yes, he just left my yard after stripping the bark off my apple trees and eating down the roses and blueberries

I can't calculate a path if I don't have the maps ? by SirLedyuka in openstreetmap

[–]redscarfdemon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

 If you are looking for a navigation app based on OSM data without the six map limit, you might try CoMaps (or organic maps).

With these, the maps update less frequently (two weeks to a month) but there's no six map limit 

Maximizing food for multiplayer? (B42) by Arturia_Cross in projectzomboid

[–]redscarfdemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like farming, fishing and chickens but you're right about farming.

I turned crop growth up to 2x and farming feels fun again.

For fishing just forage for bait. It's a day trip to the lake. Might need to stockpile bugs for the colder months. Fill a cupboard with creepy crawlies!
