The NEO6 module from Ali didn't have support for an active antenna so I bodged in a 50nH inductor. The module has an internal decoupling cap according to the integration manual. It works - the 1PPS led started flashing! #GPS #Development

Zum Navigieren mit dem
#GPS Cerät nutze ich die #OpenMTBmap Karten. Ein #Smartphone ist mir zu, schade, sensibel und teuer, um es an den Lenker zu schnallen. Außerdem kann man die Navi Displays, v.a. die von #Garmin, in der Sonne viel besser ablesen und der #Akku hält bei "Bildschirm immer an" viel länger. Mit meinem #Edge1040 fahre ich 8-9 mehrstündige Touren mit 1 Akkuladung. Ein Smartphone hält ohne #Powerbank nicht mal 1 Tour durch.

Quantum Navigation via Magnetic fields.

Even when the equipment was mounted inside a plane, where interference is much worse, it outperformed existing systems by at least 11x. This is the first time quantum technology has been shown to outperform existing tech in a real-world commercial or military application, a milestone referred to as achieving “quantum advantage."

Not only for the military !

An app for mapping running routes.

Traffic Sucks

I backed out of the driveway at 7:29am. At that time the GPS app (Waze) was already telling me I was going to be late to work. My ETA was 9:03. The app detoured me off of my normal route less than half a mile from my house…

…and it was all downhill from there.

At about 8:50 I still had 10 miles to go and Waze started recalculating. My ETA started going up… fast. There was an accident on route 128 South (that’s route 95 for all of you non-locals) right at the junction with the Mass Pike (route 90, for all of you non-locals). I pulled into a parking spot at work at 9:30.

Nine. Fucking. Thirty.

So tell me, how’s your fucking Thursday morning treating you? Nothing like a two hour drive as your democracy is collapsing to make you feel good about the state of the world, know what I mean?

Here’s a cat. Enjoy.

@Leviathan @KlausGerdGiesen Spannende Frage: #Navi mit #Galileo. Gibt es Smartphones die #GPS und alternativ #Galileo unterstützen?

starting to learn #friction a motion graphics package.
So far all the "bugs" I've found have been operator errors and misunderstandings.

I have a #svg graphic of a bicycle I found on #openclipart following a path that was made from a #gps
track off an #android phone using #viking to view a #OSM map and route and turned into a svg path in #gimp & #inkscape.

Yet to do;
turn the png frames into the video using #shotcut and some music and posted to a nextcloud server.

Privacy on the Map: How States Are Fighting Location Surveillance

Your location data isn't just a pin on a map—it's a powerful tool that reveals far more than most people realize. It can expose where you work, where you pray, who you spend time with, and, sometimes dangerously, where you seek healthcare. In today’s world, your most private movements are harvested...

"Drivers urged to be careful and use 'common sense' when following GPS detour routes" by KGW News (NBC Portland) - Problems persist with multiple vehicles getting stuck at a time over and over on the same impassable-in-winter roads following #GPS #navigation reroutes when snow or accidents close I-84 in eastern Oregon. https://www.kgw.com/article/news/local/eastern-oregon/first-responders-urge-common-sense-gps-leads-drivers-dangerous-conditions/283-f5abe105-4d6a-4dbe-8991-1aaccbb1f8b7 #travel #PNW #weather #ORwx
