Not really sure I get Wayland

I switched to Linux about 1.5 years ago now when replacing my old Macbook Pro with a Tuxedo Infinity Book. I am super happy with the transition, and for the most part my digital life has severely improved as a result of it. There’s one thing in particular though that I haven’t fully grasped or understood despite all the talk...

Psychological truths like Skinner vs Pavlov Conditioning

Something I find fascinating is that being consistent (and trustworthy) is less effective than being 80/20% consistent (classical vs operant conditioning) at training dogs where there are contextual/environmental cues at play. It’s personally counter-intuitive, but I’ve seen it work and am convinced (I attribute it to...

Why are comments like "use Firefox" okay on Lemmy while "go vegan" is getting downvoted?

Local Driving App

Google Maps is changing and will keep drive log data on the phone. I like to go on photo-drives following roads to find “Kodak moments”, I also would like a map of my random rambles. I would prefer that the data for that map be locally collected on my phone but the map itself uploadable to my laptop. Does anyone have an App...
