If you’re whitewater kayaking, it’s not uncommon to have a knife accessible from your PFD.

It can be used to cut any ropes you might be tangled in or (worse case) cut the PFD.

In general, having a knife with you is useful in most emergency situations (and a throw rope, pin kit, plus knowledge of how to use them).

Thanks for sharing the OSMand recommendation and configuration.

I’ve got a hike coming up, so I just installed it - wow, it’s fantastic. It captures the elevation change and distance. I thought I’d need to limp along with Google maps, but OSMand is sooo much better (and open source).

edit: a word

My uncle had a pitbull named “kitty kitty”.

Atleast that’s what he dog thought, as when my uncle would feed the cats and dog, he’d always call the cats by saying "here, kitty, kitty… ".

There was another thread (which I cannot find atm), which said that the author cannot make an Android port, because due to the nature of android (or Google?) the android app would not get the same level of privacy as in the iOS version.

edit: I found the link.

… my third, but still special.

Yeah, I’m curious and concerned “how” Amazon did this.

I mean the first thing I’d do would be login (cause it’s necessary), enable adb, disconnect the internet, block firmware updates, and restrict dns then reconnect to the internet.

Is that what these people are doing? Or do they just grab the latest firmware, sideload their app(s) and hope everything will “just work” today/tomorrow/ and beyond?!?

(… as I look at my subscribed communities…) What Trump memes?
