WTF moment of the day: You cannot, by any means, export custom POI lists from Google Maps.

I mean, I anyway wanted to get away from Google Maps, but hey come-on, you can export starred places and your reviews, but not the fuckin lists?!

I had to workaround and add all 150 castles my wife and me visited to starred places to get them exported...

Then converting the geojson to gpx and import to OsmAnd. Done. All locations in OsmAnd and always the possibility to export/import, do what the fuck you want with the data you created yourself. FREEDOM!

Auf Nimmerwiedersehen Google Maps, gtfooml (get the fuck out of my life).

RE
putting people in prison camps and expecting them to become intelligence operatives seems like a bad plan for recruitment

Actually, forcing families to quickly relocate without many personal possessions IS a bad plan for any reason

But, have you heard of the 442 #goforbroke #WW2 infantry regiment?

The most decorated, composed almost entirely of second generation soldiers of Japanese ancestry (Nisei)

I wonder how many were #OSS

many people today will never connect the dots

RE #GeorgeTakei
"...send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942."

⭕Connect the dots, makes me think, what IF one reason to do this in 1942 was to get many balanced bilinguals to join the #OSS and be placed ALL OVER JAPAN #WW2

Ziel ist es, die Zusammenarbeit innerhalb der EU zu fördern: #OSS, die von und für öffentliche Institutionen in den EU-Mitgliedstaaten entwickelt wurden, werden sichtbar gemacht & der Austausch sowie die Wiederverwendung erleichtert.

Aktuell finden sich neben openCode-Lösungen auch Anwendungen von CodeGouv, Code Europa EU, Developer Overheid & Developers Italia im Katalog, der im Laufe des Jahres erweitert wird.
