The Magic Earth application now comes with a charge
Recently, Magic Lane (the company that makes the Magic Earth application) completely renewed their interface and general operation.
To use the application, you now have to pay €0.99/year.
Personally, I find this price more than reasonable for supporting a European alternative to Google Maps.
I hate that “Libertarianism” in US-english means those “free” market dumbasses.
It actually meant anarchist (anti-capitalist) originally and was a euphemism for anarchist when it was banned to be one. It still means that in French generally.

…. Yeah, state capitalism.
You’re not gonna tell me countries with billionaires, capital accumulation, market logic, are communist?
The main exception is north korea but that’s just a totalitarian planned economy.
Cuba has corporations, billionaires, and “free” (neoliberal) trade.
Just because they fly a red flag and call themselves communist doesn’t make them such.

Feds brag about hefty Oracle discount – licensing experts smell a lock-in
The US General Services Administration (GSA) has announced an agreement with Oracle it claims offers a 75 percent discount on the vendor's license-based technology.However, experts have pointed out that heavy discounts are commonly offered to Oracle customers, and a 75 percent discount might not be as good as it sounds. Big Red can lock customers into deals stipulating that any attempt to reduce Oracle usage can see discounts disappear and prices rise.
As part of the arrangement, the GSA has agreed to other base discounts for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) services including the vendor's latest database, Oracle Database 23ai. The agreement eliminates data egress fees and provides pricing parity with commercial offerings, a statement said. The Register has asked the GSA how this was benchmarked.
In 2023, analysis by IT procurement consultant Michael Garland found that Oracle and Microsoft get at least 25 percent and 30 percent of their respective government revenue through purchase processes that are not competitive, collectively benefiting by $10-15 billion annually.

Proposal to Sell Gaza Land Via Crypto Tokens Met With Backlash
The Tony Blair Institute helped form a plan that proposed selling land in Gaza via blockchain tokens, the Financial Times reported Monday, after paying Palestinians to leave their land. The tokenization project would have also seen the region rebuilt with Dubai-style artificial islands and “blockchain-trade initiatives,” complete with Elon Musk and Donald Trump-themed areas.
A slide deck titled the “Great Trust” was developed by the Boston Consulting Group, or BCG, the FT reported on Sunday, with participation from two staff members from the Tony Blair Institute—an organization founded by the former UK prime minister. It was shared with the Trump administration, according to the FT, which echoed similar sentiments in February.
The deck suggested paying half a million Palestinians to leave Gaza to attract private investors to redevelop the area, following Israel’s bombings. It proposed that the public land in Gaza be put into a trust and sold via “digital tokens traded on a blockchain.” Gazans could add their private land into the trust in return for a token that would give them the right to a housing unit.

Transforming Air Travel Comfort – A Deep Dive into the Cabin Interior Composites Market
The aviation industry is constantly evolving to enhance passenger experience, operational efficiency, and sustainability. A vital component of this transformation is the Cabin Interior Composites Market, which is gaining remarkable traction worldwide. A new industry report highlights the rapid growth, key innovations, and strategic developments in this space, underscoring its critical role in modern aircraft design.
Cabin Interior Composites Market Size was estimated at 3.17 (USD Billion) in 2022. The Cabin Interior Composites Market is expected to grow from 3.34 (USD Billion) in 2023 to 5.4 (USD Billion) by 2032. The Cabin Interior Composites Market CAGR (growth rate) is expected to be around 5.48% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).
As airlines seek lightweight, durable, and aesthetically pleasing cabin materials, composites have become the go-to solution. From seats and panels to flooring and overhead bins, composite materials are revolutionizing how aircraft interiors are built and experienced.
Cabin interior composites refer to advanced materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties. These materials—typically including carbon fiber, fiberglass, and aramid—offer superior strength-to-weight ratios, fire resistance, and design flexibility. In aviation, these composites are used in a variety of applications including seat frames, wall panels, luggage compartments, lavatories, and galleys.
The Cabin Interior Composites Market is a crucial enabler of the next generation of air travel—where safety, comfort, sustainability, and efficiency converge. As highlighted in the latest report, continuous innovations, rising passenger expectations, and global regulatory pressures are accelerating the shift toward composite-based interiors. Industry stakeholders who invest in material innovation, digital manufacturing, and sustainable practices will be best positioned to capitalize on this growth trajectory.

Trasferimento comunità Milano su Citiverse
ciao!
Come accennato anche qui: feddit.it/post/19417985/145213… questa comunità è stata precorritrice dei tempi ed è l'unica che ora si ritrova con un vero e proprio "clone" su Citiverse: citiverse.it/category/14/milan…
Visto e onsiderato che Citiverse nasce proprio per le realtà locali penso sia il caso di chiudere questa comunità chiedendo di usare solo l'altra. Su Citiverse è inoltre prevista la possibilità di creare anche delle sottocategorie delle città per i vari quartieri quindi sarà possibile in futuro e su richiesta aprire comunità di Lambrate, San Siro etc cosa invece più complessa e meno gestibile qui su Feddit.

Employees at Amazon headquarters were asked on Monday to volunteer their time to the company’s warehouses to assist with grocery delivery
Amazon asks corporate workers to ‘volunteer’ help with grocery deliveries as Prime Day frenzy approaches
Exclusive: Amazon office workers in New York requested to donate time over to Fresh delivery process during firm’s busiest timeGuardian staff reporter (The Guardian)
I don't see how even Amazon can try to kill the competition in a market that huge, regardless of price or convenience.
So I assume you wrote this after picking up groceries from your locally owned grocery store? Because you still have one - it didn't collapse due to a Walmart coming to town?
Most of us have a solid example of what driving a grocery store out of business looks like, though.
As often reminded, that's probably a zoning issue.
Here on a different continent I live in an area BESIEGED by supermarkets, but I buy most of my groceries at the baker (breadmaker) and fruit-and-vegetables shop down the street. They're more expensive but more convenient and higher quality.
With the advantage of there not being a butcher as close-by, meaning I've been eating way more veggies since moving (and eggs, given those are sold in both stores).
Now the issue is they're opening a new pedestrian path that leads straight from my home to the pastry shop on the neighboring block!
Elon Musk hired a dozen Texas lobbyists this year. State law keeps the extent of their influence under wraps.
Musk, the billionaire businessman behind Tesla and SpaceX, influenced several new Texas laws this year. How his lobbyists came about these wins, however, is more of a mystery.
His lobbyists, who represented Tesla, SpaceX and the social media giant X Corp., spent tens of thousands of dollars on things like gifts and meals for Texas elected officials and others during the session, according to an analysis of state ethics data. In most cases, Texas transparency laws do not require lobbyists to disclose which politicians they wined and dined or on behalf of which clients.
A slate of ethics bills, including several to require transparency into who funds mass text messages for political campaigns, failed to become law this year, according to The Texas Tribune. Meanwhile, legislators approved a new law that will reduce the fine for former lawmakers who engage in illegal lobbying activity.

Flooded Texas County opposed siren alert system that could have warned residents because of the cost
A recent effort to bolster emergency communication infrastructure failed in the Texas Senate earlier this year
As the death toll from flash floods in Central Texas climbs past 80, scrutiny is mounting over Kerr County's past decisions to reject an outdoor siren alert system due to cost concerns.
Kerr County, located in a flood-prone region of the Texas Hill Country, has previously dismissed proposals for siren-based warning systems, citing financial burden on local taxpayers.
A recent effort at the state level to bolster emergency communication infrastructure, House Bill 13, failed in the Texas Senate earlier this year. The bill would have funded improved disaster alert systems and provided grants for counties to build infrastructure like sirens and radio towers, according to the Texas Tribune.
Some lawmakers, including state Rep. Wes Virdell, voted against it due to its projected $500 million cost, though several now admit they're reconsidering in the wake of recent events.

A quattro anni da Keep it Simple ultimo suo disco in studio, esce Born To Sing: No Plan B, album registrato interamente in presa diretta nel castello di Culloden in Irlanda e precisamente a Belfast sua città natale. Per questo lavoro, Morrison ha scelto e non a caso, l'etichetta jazz Blue Note. Il “suono” infatti, è prevalentemente influenzato di jazz, oltre che di soul e blues “toni” a lui sempre cari. Nel sottotitolo dell'album Born To Sing: No piano B, è indicato il potere che la musica ancora possiede per questa leggenda vivente chiamato “The Man”. Nessun Piano B infatti, è la prova concreta che non esistono secondi piani, l'assoluta convinzione per questo quasi settantenne musicista con cinquanta anni di carriera alle spalle e trentacinque dischi pubblicati, che, la musica con l'“M” maiuscola ha ancora un valore assoluto, supremo, e che, se esistono mode e modi che in qualche modo vogliono distogliere la sua vera essenza, la musica quella “vera” esiste ancora, senza se e senza ma... artesuono.blogspot.com/2014/11…
