A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.
Rules:
Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.

Product idea: A nightstand globe lamp, but it's a spherical screen that shows real time weather. Or other planets/moons. Maybe add a mode to simulate one of those plasma globes.
I would absolutely buy a globe with live weather. That would be so cool!
A mode where it turns into the night sky as seen around the world.
Fam, you got a million-dolla idea.
I'm definitely going to get one. Well the inevitable Chinese knockoff of course
Patent that shit right away
Oh how cool would it be if it could sync regions of the world as the ISS flies over and you get a projected image of what it really looks like
Check out zoom.earth
Not perfect but I do love to see real time satellite!
I mean, if you have £40,000 to spare, you could buy a big spherical display and then write your own software for it
I'd even be interested if it wouldn't be a full globe since there are plenty of countries who's weather is least of my concern. I'd even be interested if it were a virtual globe in an app like Google Earth.
