The world has a lot of different standards for a lot of things, but I have never heard of a place with the default screw thread direction being opposite.
So does each language have a fun mnemonic?

This post was reported for breaking community rules. Its not obvious to me what rules would be broken. dm me if you feel strongly about it and would like to clarify.
This post was reported for being a news article not a shower thought. Also it seems like several of the comments are concerned that it is political.
There isn't a rule against posting a link. The article does seem relevant and OP's thought isn't taken from the article, it seems unique, like something you might think of in the shower after reading the article.
There isn't a rule against political posts. Many posts have some component of politics to them.
Thank you all for being civil with each other. Thank you all for commenting and reporting when think something is pushing the limits on what should be considered a "shower thought", it's an abstract concept, so social pressure is helpful in shaping the community. I try to error on the side of being permissive.
As always, I am open to feedback.
Edit: spelling, ironically
Sounds like an unpleasant shower... I'm sorry
When I first tried OsmAnd a few years ago it was overwhelming, there is so much to customize.
I tried it again recently and it really impresses me.
My OsmAnd ski profile shows me slope for avalanche risk and 3D relief so I don't need Fatmap, plus OsmAnd let's you download 7days of weather.
OsmAnd doing routing on hiking trails replaces my need for Gaia.
Really impressive work by the OsmAnd team.
Yeah, it's interesting to look through the edit history over the years. With StreetComplete I recently fixed ~8 stores that were many years out of date, during an hour walk.
It's fun to find a real hole-in-the-wall that even google maps doesn't have.
Is this just a title and a picture? Am I missing the details somewhere?
After reading the sidebar, I'm not sure this counts as an article. Happy to remove it.
That's a great point. I probably could have worded that differently.
I first learned of Street-Complete here and I really like it.
It's satisfying to walk around, complete little tasks, and get prizes, scratching a similar itch to Pokemon Go.
Stuck waiting for someone? Add opening hours for a few local businesses.
Have a long walk ahead of you? See if you can add/check house addresses as fast as you can walk.
Want to walk off a few beers before heading home? Complete some tasks in the bar street.
Its a very constructive way to "be right" on the internet.
Does anyone else think the thumbnail looks like a llama with laser eyes?
If Clear is an equity problem, then the toll lanes that are going in all over California certainly are.
Toll roads would be equal. The toll lanes feel really bad.
That's very fair. I don't like how unpredictable Bluetooth is when you have multiple peripherals and multiple hosts paired to eachother and all within range of eachother.
So you are saying that AI today is like Bluetooth today
Yeah these are tricky social and technical problems that will be solved one way or another. Corporations can solve it behind closed doors, but I'm glad that governments are also trying to solve it.
If we have the opportunity to criticize the government's solutions then than means there is transparency, which is more than we would get from many corporations.
