• getting from jfk to port authority in three hours

  You won’t make it. The thing that screws you up is late landings and then getting through customs and getting your baggage. That takes 1.5 hours off those three hours, before air train, etc. Use rome2rio.com to look at all options. Amtrak is a better option. Source: 5 months ago

• Planning a 1 month trip to Europe in June 2024- looking for advice: regarding order of cities to visit, adding other cities or not, and best mode of transport between cities

  So print out a map of Europe, circle these cities, and then open up https://rome2rio.com, and use that to identify train times, train costs, and train schedules for every city to each other city.

• "I'm in this picture and I don't like it"

  OsmAnd works for me. I am looking to get off Google, so I try to retire anything that is not on F-Droid. OsmAnd is a independent project ( osmand.net ) that uses the data you can also access under www.openstreetmap.org . The App is not perfect and sometimes it calls for the wrong action, for example when a road is just taking a steep turn it might ask for you to turn onto a different road which is actually the...

• WiFi without internet on a Southwest flight

  When I am on a flight and the flight does not provide the flight information, I am using the OsmAnd, https://osmand.net/, to monitor the flight altitude, speed and direction. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Improving your online privacy: An update

  Regarding usage of OpenStreetMap over Google Maps - assuming we're talking mobile usage - you might give OSMAnd[0] a try.
