Invincible can’t move between the infinite timelines though, and no storyline is hanging off of the important changes he makes those timelines by travelling through time/dimensions. He’s not “saving” anyone by jumping through to another universe

Feel free to remain sus :)

Yep. And you’d be right to be sus if I used a new account with little history to make implications about another user

That’s exactly my point! In an infinite timelines story, there is nothing that has special meaning over the others, making it boring, because it’s all irrelevant!

Asks the week old account…

.blahaj admins/mods will ban you from every space they control

I don’t moderate any communities outside of blahaj.

It’s not a “common practice on blahaj”. It’s just how lemmy does instance bans.

I generally don’t community ban people, I tend to instance ban them, because if they’re breaking community rules, but not instance rules, it’s up the community mods to deal with, and if they’re breaking instance rules, they get an instance ban.

And when you instance ban someone, and choose to remove their content, that’s what it looks like in a modlog. It’s not because I’ve gone and selected a whole bunch of community bans. It’s just how lemmy works

The reality I experience is the only one that matters to me. To an outside observer, all of them are as equally real and there is no true timeline.

In a story, there is no real, there is only outside observers…

Is there any way of forcing it to rebuild places and trips? Somewhere along the line, most of mine disappeared. It’s still building new ones just fine as GPS logger adds real time data, but most of my historical stuff is gone.

The actual data is there, and it shows up fine on the maps for each day, but the places/trips/stats etc are mostly empty.

I can’t see anything in the logs that might explain it

Apologies, I copied and pasted the answer below from another reply I made elsewhere in this thread

I’m not talking about about the possibility of real infinite dimensions. I’m talking about sci fi, and stories, which is the context of the OPs question.

In a “real” scenario, the experience that matters is the one I’m having, not the one other versions of me might be having.

But in a story, there is no “true” timeline, or a more “real” timeline. They’re all being retold to us indirectly, and the choice of the version of the person retelling those experiences is arbitrary by the author. It doesn’t matter what perspective the author chooses, because every other outcome also happened, the author just didn’t tell us those stories.

You’ve shown your kid that he’s in charge of his own body, and shown him that you can be trusted if he approaches you with sensitive or embarassing topics.

What other people think is irrelevant, because your relationship with your kid will be forever better because you’ve shown him you can be trusted.

Except for the fact it makes every decision, every moment of tension and every event that occurs irrelevant, because an infinite number of universe exist in which the events occurred and in which they didn’t occur.

I’ve got a question about how reitti calculates significant places/visits.

I was thinking of adjust gps logger so that it doesn’t log points if they’re within 10m of the last point it logged. That will clear up the data when I’m at home or work, so that there is less of a random squiggle of location data. It will record me arriving at home, and leaving home, but not much in between.

Will that impact how reitti calculates locations though? Is it looking at the number of points, or is it simply a matter of duration within a particular vicinity?

Having all of this data stored in a location I can control has been really good.

But yesterday, it was pointed out to me that the API reitti provides means I have access to over a decades worth of location history that I can use to geotag my photo collection! That is a game changer. I’ve been trying to find a way to pull that information from google location history for a long time, and it turns out, you’ve created it!

This is really valuable to me, so I want you to know just how much I appreciate the effort you’ve put in to making it. Thank you

I’m on android. I’ll raise a bug report.

Well, the last update seems to have cleared the queue, and all of my history from that 10 year import now shows, with trips and places identified!

But now, it’s having issues with importing the new google format import. I’ve got a 34MB file there that goes back to 2017, and this data says that it has imported, but then never appears in my history.

If it’s relevant, there is overlap in the data, as my 10 year takeout import went up to 2023, and my “new format” import starts in 2017 and went a couple of days ago. I changed my google account in 2017, but logged in to both on my phone simultaneously, so I was accruing location data on both accounts at the same time for a while before I turned it off on my old account.

Who?

That’s really interesting. Australian here, and I’ve remarked several times how the userbase of the fediverse isn’t dominated by American voices like most other social media platforms I’ve used.

Since I last commented, the queue has jumped from about 9000 outstanding items, to 15,000 outstanding items, and it appears that I have timelines for a large amount of my history now.

However, the estimated time is still slowly creeping up (though only by a minute or two, despite adding 6000 more items to the queue).

I haven’t uploaded anything manually that might have triggered the change in queue size.

Is there any external calls made during processing this queue that might be adding latency?

tl;dr - something is definitely happening
