Reminds me of this asshole who vandalized openstreetmap a while back to "point out a security flaw"

By changing the names of a bunch of prominent buildings to racist terms

Yes. I'm a near surface geophysicist. So I don't look for oil or minerals but I do try to figure out what's going on underground without digging. Mostly looking for mine or karst voids under new construction.

This is fucking stupid. Like "I don't wear a seatbelt so I can be thrown out the window to safety" stupid.

Same boat here. I'm not a vegan (pescatarian) but it seems to me people are reacting (understandably) emotionally because everyone loves pets and wants the best for them.
