I can’t find anything on the claim england has laws for this. Link?
The carts are not leaving the property of the store, which includes the lot, so that argument unfortunately also doesn’t fly. I’m not familiar with any stores big enough to have carts but which don’t have their own lots (or are the majority owner of the lot).
Seems unlikely: if the non-return behavior isn’t a thing in other countries why would they have a lively internet vendetta, mostly in English, against anyone who has committed the eternally-punishable crime of leaving their cart to the cart guy (who doesn’t exist in those countries). Just seems pretty implausible.
I still don’t really understand the obsession by people who spend all their time on the internet with whether the cart return kid had to return their personal cart along with the 200 other carts.
If you’re talking about a commercial building or something, sure. I get the concept I suppose it just seems like it’s probably optimizing 2025 hardware against 2005 constraints when we’re talking about a single household. I’m unlikely to automate any part of my home in the near future but if I ever did I’d definitely want to look for some data (like, “gaming latency increases 20% with 10 smart devices”).
Fair enough, just seems like sticking with the more standard tech has its own advantages but if you’ve got a lot of devices in the net I could see the value
Why? It’s plugged into mains, you don’t need to save 5 watts.
Oh it’s lemmy I ignore that most of the time
Nah just doin a little light jesting
Samsung breaks so many things about android and makes them unequivocally worse that it’s hard to call it android
So it’s a purple state that has been shifting liberal. Which means…not famously liberal.
A little strange that you think Samsung makes Android phones.
I’m pretty sure they used the word shareholder value one too many times and people brought out the noose.
Right, so it works real well if you already know where you’re going.
I mean that’s where this conversation started: osm works fine if you already know where you’re going.
I don’t know anything about where you live, but traffic is wildly variable where I am and so I need it. Note I’m not one of those people who uses their gps to go to the grocery store, we’re talking journeys of 30+ minutes, usually 60+, on interstates. Yeah if you’re going to trader joes the traffic doesn’t matter, but I sincerely hope people aren’t whipping out gps to drive 10 minutes to somewhere they’ve been hundreds of times.
I really don’t why everyone is trying so fucking hard to convince me to switch. I have multiple osm apps installed to my phone at all times. They just don’t work well in any of the places I’ve lived in the last decade.
You’re also seemingly of the belief I haven’t added data to the maps, which is wildly wrong. I still support osm, it’s just not good.
That’s comaps now that organic is persona non grata
I don’t really know what happened but when your app only works with community support and the community hates you enough to hard fork the app, it’s time to switch.
This is a straw man. I have no interest in that, what I want is to be able to see points of interest more or less immediately after the business appears and I want search to work. The immediately problem could easily be resolved by lots of these restaurant vendors like door dash, slice, etc incorporated adding the restaurant to osm and it would basically cost them nothing.
And if I used a commercial map to find the place, why wouldn’t I stay there? Google maps also has better directions because it has traffic data. Like I get we all hate google but the argument osm is good or even fine just doesn’t make sense to me.
Oh I’m running osmand~ and comaps and magic earth.
And by running I mean I occasionally confirm its still not good enough yet
Even when they are up to date the search blows.
I tried to find something the other day and just because it’s funny here are the results. The business is called X’s Y but in osm it’s stored as Xs, no apostrophe.
So you tell me, if it can’t find a restaurant for which it has existing data, why is it the users’ fault for not collecting more data?
Why would I need to use a cart? I’m not a cuck.
I just find this cuck obsession with policing behavior that objectively doesn’t matter at all and those same cucks assigning moral value to that behavior is…well, it feels like this is how we got HOAs (traditionally the biggest bunch of cucks to ever cuck).
