good analogy! If that’s the case, then I can paddle a canoe 10mph (downstream, with a “tail” wind).

While this is an incredible travel speed, I wouldn’t consider it “hitting supersonic” speeds based on ground speed. I read the article wondering about the safety of passenger aircraft at 800MPH, but it seems to not apply.

I’m not a pilot, though.

I like to think that using FOSS daily, singing its praises to everyone and filing out the occasional bug report counts.

I’m running /e/ OS 1.8.1. Avenza seems to be the problem here. There are other apps too, but this is the lastest. It’s frustrating to be required to use closed source proprietary software for public services, like the forestry maps.

Thanks! This is what I was looking for.

Osmand is great for most of what I need on a daily basis, but on a trip a few years ago, some of the hiking trails were not up to date and we got lost. It wasn’t terrible, but it was uncomfortable and fortunately we had paper maps.

I would like to use the maps provided by the park or forestry service since I like to think that they’re current, but they rely on Avenza which relies on Google. I’m okay taking a risk on Avenza for the short duration of the trip and plan to not give it network access, but I doubt I could do that with Google Play services, much less cleanly uninstall it after the trip is over.

I have and use OSMAnd and love it. I’ll check out those other apps. Mostly, I want to use the trail maps provided by the park. I’ve been burned in the past when using other trail apps.

This is like those sites where you just need that recipe for the Bloomin’ Onion sauce because you forgot one ingredient and you get the life story of the author:

“We were riding on horseback around Tuscany when my riding boot got scuffed by the buckle, so we stopped by a local cobbler to repair it while we listned to the church bells of a nearby…”

3 screens later…

“There was an Outback Express at the airport and I asked the waiter…”

“Horseradish” Oh yeah!

I couldn’t find this one, but if you’re interested in playing vintage games, Archive.org has a pretty good list. They also had a way to play some of these in-browser, but I can’t find it now.
