Are you even EU citizen? You seems to be posting mostly Russian POV.

[paganel → timeon]

What type of question is that?

If you’re so curious, yes, on top of being pro/Russia I’m also a Mets fan. LGFM! How does knowing more about me help bring this conversation forward? Should I in turn ask about your favorite MLB team?

And was not present with pop-ups like on that Medium site.

> Unfortunately Osmand is just not a great interface for most of my needs, and has no Android Auto support, either.

This is probably not relevant to you (as I think it also does not have android auto) but there is also OSM app called Organic Maps.

There is also mention why those specific sites are broken:

Cool. How about you paying cost of the wildlife?

On: Medieval Bologna was full of tall towers

[timeon]

Is that somehow related?

[klyrs → timeon]

What Americans call baloney, is properly spelled Bologna ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bologna_sausage ) and named after the city of Bologna. I came here cautiously hoping to find a good meat-based pun, but disappointment is rather the whole experience.

Try reddit instead for the puns!

(My apologies for the snark)

[klyrs → seadan83]

I said good puns. I like that bad jokes are punished severely here. Originality is rewarded.

[timeon → klyrs]

Thanks, was not aware of that!

[wkat4242 → klyrs]

I think Americans also use this word for "bullshit" strange enough

There is also Zulip, that I think is opensource.

[Bluestein → timeon]

Can vouch for Zulip. Threaded messaging is the best.-

> Windows 7 UI is like Windows XP but prettier

Isn't 7 UI basically Vista?

[Aeolun → timeon]

Sorta, but Vista was slow and stuttery, so they don’t feel the same.

[p_l → Aeolun]

Windows 7 effectively cleaned up some details, and by the time of windows 7 the vendors shipping broken drivers already had to correct for NT6 changes or deal with their hardware not working.

[pxc → Aeolun]

Is Windows 7 fast on Vista-era hardware?
