@polaris Yes, it appears based on Mercator, which is what the "M" in UTM stands for?

@polaris
@polaris I'm not sure how to interpret this. Historians appear in agreement that the map was designed as a tool for marine navigation. Your argument is that it was not?

@nickf Peacock we don't have here but I found it has just been added on @Viaplay_SE !
Now I know in Sweden it's called "Vita huset". Which is just The White House.
@nickf @Viaplay_SE (I have my phone set to English, hence that bilingual interface. It can get really weird with Swedish apps.)

@johangranstrom Alltid något. Känns som att @medierna bör nappa på detta till nästa avsnitt. Typisk felrapportering med stora påföljder.

@johangranstrom Har du sett någon vidare uppföljning på denna story? Saknar en mer ordentlig granskning känns det som. Var och varannan jag pratar med verkar ha köpt ursprungshistorien med hull och hår.

@LaEscude @ilaconf Oh, cool! Thanks for the tip.
↪ Replying to @nickf
@nickf Haha wow, thank you Nick. That is awesome. I hadn't watched the West Wing. Now I feel like I have to. If I can find it somewhere...

@reg_inee 💯 I advocate for the Authagraph projection, rather than Mercator, becoming the default choice for the 2D representation of the world in all classrooms.

@ethicsconsult @EthicsInBricks Thank you Suzanne. 🙏

@leeloowrites Hehe. I wrote two replies to that – deleted both before posting. Getting better at knowing when to walk away. Deleted replies can be a good coping mechanism for me at times.

@JennyTheolin That’s a great tip Jenny, thanks! I should find someone to interview there.

@JontyFairless @CatherineRwork Excellent to hear Jonty! If you feel like experimenting more you may want to have a look at my draft of the next iteration: x.com/axbom/status/1…

@NateRothstein @benthompson Thanks Nate! I think I get it now :)
It's always my worry that if we use language to separate people from their embodiment and space the risk is always greater of treating them as cogs rather than complex beings with complex needs.
@NateRothstein @benthompson I do realise this is not at all what Ben intends (I'm a fan) so I really wanted to explore the premise of the statement as I was seeing it in several places in my feeds.
↪ Replying to @benthompson
@benthompson Thanks for responding Ben. I realise the weakness of not having heard the full context of the quote. Not sure I still get it though. From my perspective work _is_ affected by the physical location, and hence often very relevant. Not acknowledging this removes significant info.

@KeyaArati Thanks Keya. I also have a paid subscription to Spotify. My question concerns those who have access to pay a subscription fee for premium podcasts in Spotify.

@lillerik @nikkelin Om man blir betalande prenumerant på en podd, så är det sannolikt i köp-ögonblicket som man får godkänna detta?
Jag missförstod detta först och trodde att bara man följde en podd så delades information. Så verkar inte vara fallet.
↪ Replying to @beantin
@beantin @NiemanLab So you mean subscriber indicates that it is someone paying for that podcast specifically?
↪ Replying to @DorotheaBaur
@DorotheaBaur I publish on my own website. In fact, I often require the possibility for me to publish "the thing" on my own website after some time. Too much content has a tendency to disappear after a few years. I want that control back.
