I don't get why this was downwoted? By using google maps one contribute back traffic data and route problems for free + you share your position which can be sold to billboard advertisers for analysis...

I am thankful for projects like OpenStreetMaps. If I ever switch to a libre mobile operating system it, will take little time to get OSM-based maps app there.

Main priority of giant corporations is money, no matter what. They will always support mainstream closed platforms only.

That is not the same. You can always check the Spam folder. But you can't see posts which FB decided not to show you!

No, that's not practically possible. And even if it were, FB could stop or change/restrict it any time.

Ads are being served and FB makes money from advertisers. It's good that some people are slowly starting to see that...

People shouldn't rely on these services for anything important. FB is primarily ad serving business and entertainment website. It doesn't make our life better, it also takes away our time and reduces productivity. :(

I think scraping for personal use (not honorig robots.txt) should always be legal unless you are attempting DOS. You are accessing public information, the server is returning HTTP200 and it doesn't matter if you do so using a browser, phantomjs or curl with -A parameter.

A different situation would be scraping a website to make business. Worst being directly using the data - for example those StackOverflow clones with original data doesn't sound ok to me. I am not sure what to think about bots doing various derived work like stats and analysis. I think that if they are part of a business, making money, it shouldn't be legal unless those request are permitted by robots.txt.

I tried oh-my-zsh and it was too slow for me for some reason. Returning from a command took a second. Maybe I had some buggy plugin enabled, I don't know.

Fish is almost zero configuration and has many useful functions built-in and they are quite fast. Unfortunatelly it doesn't use bash-style syntax like zsh does.

Thanks for it! I am also using Fish happily for interactive terminal work. Not so much for scripting as I am lazy to learn the new syntax.

What I don't like is that after hitting Tab twice when doing path completion, the list of possibilities comes out, allowing arrow keys to be used for selection. The problem is that it requires pressing Enter to confirm the suggestion and I fear of executing the command with incomplete path prematurely (it's just one more Enter hit away).

It is sad. Linux could be better if more people used it. Currently its use for desktop is relatively low. People tend to trust companies more so all they can do now is complain and email company's support department.
