I’m starting to think this account is the LLM experiment. A poor one, though. It just keeps saying the same thing and not accepting new information.

I don’t understand why you want to do this so badly? I don’t care how a bot responds. Why would I want to have a conversation with one on social media?

Our dogs had to hop like bunnies when we went out this morning and they’re medium sized. It’s a new experience for all of us, being from Texas where we rarely get an inch on “snow days”.

I’m looking forward to trying out the Linux client when it’s available!

As a contributor to OSM, this is correct. A lot of the rural US is not mapped super well. There just isn’t enough local, updated imagery or mappers in the country.

I switched to Kobo a few years and couldn’t be happier. I hated supporting Amazon.

I have not been able to find it. It may have been on the US Slack, but I can not remember and am not logged in to that at the moment.

I will see if I can find the particular message where that was said.

The way it was described to me on Mastadon was that, until your area has their own server, you can use the French server. It will work because each picture has its own consistent ID, which won’t change once they are moved to a new server when it comes online. If they changed their mind, I didn’t know.

I use the command line interface to upload mine, but the web UI is good as well, though a bit slower.

I stopped using Mapillary because I just couldn’t stand using a Meta product anymore. Panoramax has way less footage, but I started contributing to it myself and then using the footage in OSM.

I found this on the OSM wiki:

Lyft welcomes feedback and suggestions on improving the editing process. When members of the editing team receive feedback or comments on a changeset, it is considered a top priority to respond and make corrective action on their OSM edits if required. If you have any questions about the editing process, or a specific edit done by the Lyft team, please reach out by sending an email to dct-osm(at)lyft.com. Responses to inquiries received are typically sent within two business days. skudrashou_lyft and technician_lyft are acting as a primary contact person for the team.

While I admit having updated streetside images would be great, I might be too lazy to reach out to ask :D

If you look at the user’s profile that added it, does it by any chance say they work for Lyft? I’ve never seen that particular source before.

To say that’s disappointing is an understatement. “We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas!”

Could you explain why? We’re new to Minnesota so I’m not in any way familiar with the man.

I came here to post this. What a fantastic series!

I don’t mind keeping it outside but it’s getting to the point of the year where it gets cold at night. I have found a wide range of answers on if they can handle winter weather. Do you have personal experience with them? I’d love to hear what you think!

I’m in north Texas so it doesn’t usually get THAT cold, but I can always bring it in on freezing nights if necessary.

Seatbelts everyone!

I can’t wait to see what it turns out like!

I haven’t come across that one yet but I like it as well

It actually exists now.

Data quality isn’t quite there yet. I’m biased though as I’m an OpenStreetMap contributor.
