Sun dogs happen at a specific angle and result in up to three bright spots. There are 4 lights. They are spaced unevenly and far too close together. There is no distortion and there is a cloud in front of the rightmost image. This is a timelapse of four pictures. The “video” is just the still image with motion effects added.
I couldn’t find the exact source, but it looks much more like multiple exposures than anything else. For example, it is entirely the wrong shape, distance, and number to be sun dogs.
What did you find in your search?
Yes, you’d have to be above the Arctic circle. Search “midnight sun timelapse” images, and you’ll find lots of examples. It is not actually a straight line, but moving on a curve. At this level of zoom, the curve is not apparent
I assume you’re joking since the caption says Alaska, but… Alaska (for one).
Bad bot.
Is there anyone here who doesn’t think this is obviously a timelapse (of the very cool phenomenon of the sun moving horizontally)?
It has been public for a long time that they have access to your contacts and metadata (who you talk to, how much, when, from where, etc.) That was bad enough. But this is the first time I’ve heard about accessing message content. Really chilling.
Funny that the surveillance state suddenly forgets to surveil when it is the one under the spotlight.
Loops is actually pretty great.
This is truly horrifying. Even more so that the world is watching it happen with precious little protest.
Sadly, the actual numbers are looking to be much higher.
That’s true, there are some projects to bring features like street view/360 view, interactive business listings, internal views, etc. In my area, I still have to switch back and forth between Google and OSM, but some areas are much more complete. It just depends on where you live and which specific features you rely on.
It will never come from scraping a copyrighted source, as that would be fundamentally against the ethos of the project 🤷
Yes! I meant to say peanut lol. Had to go back and see what the heck I typed.
At least in my lifetime, every president has commented critically about the previous administration.
You’re absolutely right that US presidents have historically not used their position for personal profit, or at least not overtly so. Jimmy Carter famously sold his potato farm upon being elected in order to avoid potential conflict of interest.
For clarification, Organic Maps was the project that has been accused of mismanagement. A significant portion of that community departed to create this app, CoMaps. The goal from the outset was to create a more transparent and open community, hence the name, community maps or CoMaps.
CoMaps is a fairly recent fork of what was already an excellent app, but likely with poor management ethics behind it. I’ve been extremely impressed by the rapid pace of development on a pretty sizable project. There are already hundreds of small (and a few not so small) improvements over the project it was forked from.
It’s a very different approach. Personally, I could never fit OSMand into my daily routine, but this one has been great.
It’s not a reskin, it’s built from the ground up. Although it is technically a fork of a fork (not OSMand).
For me, much more user-friendly and intuitive and even quicker. They both use open street maps data, but I think they are worlds apart. I haven’t done any testing with OSMand for a couple years, so I couldn’t tell you which specific features are different.
I find it very easy to read, day or night. It’s quick to add a destination for navigation. It’s very easy to create updates directly from the app that will upload to OSM.
What I mean about a fresh install is a new install with no customizations or addons. Firefox also has a safe mode that will run without addons, but depending on what other privacy customizations you have done that might not be enough to isolate the issue.
Sometimes I forget how brutal the early 2000s were.
Shouldn’t be a problem. Does it happen with a fresh install? Do you use a VPN that may be blocking your location / device info?
@proti@lemmy.world not all heroes wear capes. Thank you for making my day!
