lol turns out that if you have the public transit or biking layer turned on it does that, even if there is no public transit or bike paths visible. thanks hamburger menu!

Apple is still considerably better about making non-major roads visible (but worse about labeling them :argh:)



kinda weird that apple maps insists on making it very visible if a road gets tunneled. makes the freeways around here look like they randomly stop

its all google products, and the worst thing is that other companies see them as a trendsetter so every time they schizoleap to a new design language everyone falls over themselves to try to make their applications match.

Up ta somethin'


did they fix the behavior where chrome reserves large amounts of system ram to keep unused and inactive tabs and windows active, causing the OS and everything else that doesn't also aggressively reserve ram to grind to a halt because every request has to hit mass storage instead of the prefetch cache that the OS normally keeps in "empty" ram?

or are they still considering that not a problem because Google employees don't use other programs and hoards of nerds keep defending it because they don't know about OS caching and think that "available" RAM is wasted?
