I’ve downloaded Here WeGo maps, but I’ve noticed that the app lacks a review system. Additionally, the detail level for most places is quite poor.

Which Google Maps alternative is your favorite?

Anyone else struggling to avoid Amazon because of the price of some things? I need 3M Tegaderm for example and on Amazon it cost 28€ for 10cm by 10m roll and on other sites that are not Amazon I can only find it for pretty much double the price (shop-apotheke.com has it for 58,40€ https://www.shop-apotheke.com/arzneimittel/3816512/3m-tegaderm-roll-10-cm-x-10-m.htm and medizinbedarf.eu has it for 49,60€ https://www.medizinbedarf.eu/3M-Tegaderm-Roll-Transparentverband-unsteril-10-cm-x-10-m). Stuff like this really makes it difficult.

Anyone know where I can find this as cheap as on Amazon or at least not much more expensive?

I'm finally getting to replacing my ISP-provided Huawei router for, well, something - anything - else. When sifting through options available locally I've noticed Fritzbox 4060, which is not a name ice heard ever before. I didn't find much info about neither the company nor the product (except for marketing info and basic technical specs, which look fine for me). I guess I could've looked up some German sites (and believe the automated translations, cause my German is almost nonexistent) but I'm honestly interested in opinions of the people in this community.

So, what's up with AVM?

EDIT: Thank you for your replies! Seems like I'm going to buy the bullet and buy myself a Fritzbox, then!

I am pretty sure that Rheinmetall AG is having a downward correction after all that growth, I am waiting to buy the dip

Does any of you know a good alternative to LinkedIn which is available all over Europe ?

In the past there was a French Alternative called Viadeo but it seems they were bought by another company and now the website is full of adds.

Possibly has a similar mindset to Musk. See report (german)

I absolutely love this classic durable and reliable watch. I've had it for over 10 years and still running and in nice condition.

Any similar European alternatives you know of and can possibly recommend? As far as I know CASIO itself is Japanese, but I was kinda curious if I could support "local" and get an European one.

Antoher friendly reminder of why we have to buy European products: tariffs to all agriculture products going to USA from next month. We still don't know the percentage, but anyway, buy European as long as you can!

They have German and Finnish data centers, as well as American. Pricing is pretty competitive, and unlike anything super autoscalable in AWS, it's predictable.

They offer an email service that comes with their basic webhosting service, which is a bundle that costs less for 100 inboxes than Google Suite or Proton for just one user, if all you need is email.

Currently there's only 3 big players when it comes to maps. You've got Google, Apple and Microsoft. > > Let's try to make OpenStreetMap the best map there is. Go grab StreetComplete and start mapping your surroundings when you're out and about. > > All the data is under a public license and managed by a non-profit foundation in the UK. > > It's very easy to get started, and quite addictive.

I’ve begun discontinuing many US services in favor of EU ones. However, I’ve noticed that some individuals, instead of simply ceasing to use American products, resorted to illegally downloading everything. While it’s true that the money goes to the US when you pay, it can’t justify disrespecting others’ hard work and effort while still consuming or using their products, and it is also illegal. This is especially true considering that they likely don’t have any direct connection to MAGA. This applies to actors, directors, YouTubers, and many others. We should simply cease using their products without giving them any further consideration.

Edit: adding to the last line, we should give instead more attention to locally and European made creations and products

I am not the author.

I found this blog to have both a short summary of the reasons as well as a pretty complete overview of the options for protecting against this specific threat model. I can just send this to people and they'll understand the why and the how.
