Some more details on the update frequency of services and maps I use:

  • After you upload something, it changes the database instantly.
  • Things getting data directly from there should also update near instantly, like when you download in JOSM.
  • The update delay of the raster map on openstreetmap.org depends on the zoom level. More zoomed in tiles update near instantly, lower zoom levels are updated weekly, monthly. Coastine is a special element, it doesn't update with others, as it's really resource intensive. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Coastline
  • Queries on Overpass-turbo.eu have a delay of 6-10 minutes.
  • Afaik StreetCompete quests are near instant, at the time you download them, but the base map updates only monthly, I read this in some forum, not sure.
  • Organic maps usually monthly. Map updates are tied to app updates, so sometimes they miss some month.
  • Magic Earth usually monthly, but sometimes they skip one or two. It's annoying for me, because I use this for car navigation usually. The streets I use frequently are perfect now, but once I made a typo accidentally on a destination sign, and I fixed it some days later as I noticed while driving there, but ME didn't updated its map for like 3 months after that, and I was always reminded to my typo I already fixed, ahhh...
  • Osmand defaults to monthly updates, but if you pay for it or download the foss version or you are a frequent osm contributor you can get live updates up to hourly frequency: https://osmand.net/docs/user/personal/maps-resources#osmand-live

I wrote this from memory, so it may be not 100% up to date, please correct me if I'm wrong

Do we have an extension apocalipse again, or is it a "bump supported version" type update?

[-] infeeeee@lemm.ee 21 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

You don't "submit changes to the osm team", you are actually editing the live map. Reviewers can revert changes, but there isn't some process a change must go through, everything is live. Most apps don't use the live data, but regular snapshots of it, that's why it seems like there is some processing behind the scenes, but it's up to the renderers and apps, not by osm.

Answering your question: OM is an app for navigation, and using the map, functionality for contributing data is very minimal and limited. SC is an app for contributing, nothing else, e.g. you can't plan a route there. If you want to contribute, use SC. If you just navigating with OM and notice something is missing, use OM, if it's quicker than opening another app.

It sounds to me as a documentation issue, as the next comment says, simply including a wget script should solve this.

This is part of a series by Adam Hillman where he recreated famous paintings from everyday objects, here is an article about them: https://mymodernmet.com/famous-paintings-arrangements-adam-hillman/

This is definitely Guernica, and it seems like it's painted on some kind of biscuits?

I found info about this painting on the website of Hamburger Kunsthalle: https://online-sammlung.hamburger-kunsthalle.de/en/objekt/HK-645/idealvedute-mit-palasttreppe

If I understand correctly this is not an existing place, but an imagined staircase, even though Bellotto's paintings were realistic representations of actual buildings and cities.

I found the update 404 media article, this article is based on: https://www.404media.co/heres-the-pitch-deck-for-active-listening-ad-targeting/

It's behind a paywall, and I couldn't found a way to remove it. But from the top screenshot it seems like it's the same bullshit from the same company... We know from the past that they lie about this, why is it a news that they did the same thing again?

This is nearly a year old news, and noone ever could prove it.

CMG is simply lying. Also originally it was not "leaked" it was published on their website, it's just the same bullshit from different source.

It was not just a "leak" this was literally on their website a year ago: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/12/no-a-marketing-firm-isnt-tapping-your-device-to-hear-private-conversations/

Marketing people bullshitting to get investor money. Anyone can imagine non existent technology and lie on the internet, you don't have to believe everything

The sea, which straddles the border between Israel and Jordan, has seen its surface area shrink by about 33 percent since the 1960s. A plan to replenish the Dead Sea with seawater from the Red Sea was proposed in 2009, but abandoned in 2021.

It's been more than a year since I just quickly set up the community icon and banner. I want to change it sometimes, to highlight some artists and albums, new or old.

Please recommend here artists with nice logos. I'm planning to change them after some months.

I will document the previous logos and banner images in this post:

On some communities the header image and community logo is broken, e.g. here: https://lemm.ee/c/idm

I'm the mod there, I haven't changed images since I started the community, a year ago. If I click on the Edit community button, I can see both images on the sidebar.

If I comment somewhere and link to external image with the markdown syntax ![](...) images not showing up. This works in post bodies, it only affects comments.

Created a test post here, you can see the image in the first comment is not visible: https://lemm.ee/post/38021843

The Batagaika Crater, located in the Chersky Range of northeastern Siberia, Russia, is the largest permafrost crater in the world. One kilometer (0.6 miles) long, 100 meters (328 feet) deep, and growing, it has been sinking due to thawing permafrost since the 1960s. Batagaika’s rim is extremely unstable and the site of regular landslides, retreating by as much as 30 meters (98 feet) in a single year.
