I just broke my Insta360 camera support...

 First, sorry for not posting anything for about half a month, but I didn't have ideas of what to post on here...

Anyways, it isn't that bad, all I did is using my camera support (which is a rod) like a samurai sword, and then the last 2 parts dethatched. Now that I'm thinking, yea it was my fault, but at the same time is expected. I've used the rod in highly non-recommended situations, for example: using it to capture street view from a car and of course using it as a samurai sword.

I might be able to fix it, it's not that broken after all! And as for the camera, it's completely ok, no damage at all. That's why I love my camera, no matter the situation, it always manages to stay alive!

As for my day-to-day life, well I finally managed to get in contact with Zyly for my geography project about Argentina. It all started on Telegram, and then I messaged him on Twitter where he said that I should informate myself and then to clarify the things with him.

I know that it sounds weird to talk to a person I don't even know that well, but at the same time it's nothing harmful!

Also, I finally know to redesign Orio!
You'll see the redesign on the wiki page!

Now about street view, I've taken some in the village of Hodoș and this time I've putted a QR code on the bottom of each capture that redirects here!

So, that's all that happened in these 2 weeks!

Why doesn't the government want to make its appearance on Google Maps a little fancy?

I'm from Romania, and as you probably know, the cycling option for navigating the country is not available on Google Maps. It's like hell to me, and as I use the map daily, I've noticed that some buildings don't appear on the map!

I googled how to get that building on the map and found this. I tried submitting the building data there but to no avail... Instead, they redirected my submission to the Local Guide part of Google Maps and didn't use it because I didn't show them proof that the building was there (part of the documents). I said "Fine, I'll look them up" but guess what... IT'S NOT PUBLIC!

Then how should I make the map better or even if someone who has a building project in Romania will know more about it?

I added emoji support!

If you remembered the last time I did this on this blog, it was a mess... I was using Twitter's emojis back then, which still had suppor...
