We started working to digitize the public transport in Romania.
We support 5 cities: Timisoara, Cluj-Napoca, Bucuresti, Sibiu & Constanta.
About the app
Living in a big city where things are always in motion, having a smart mobility app can make the difference for its residents and visitors.
CityRadar aims to help the user getting from point A to B by providing the best routes and display the most efficient way of getting to the destination. Whether it’s the bus, tram or train, it’s important to have access to exact information.
• Easy to use app where you can find all the available methods of transport in a city.
• Real-time arrivals, with accurate information taken directly from the GPS devices of the buses, trams, trains and more.
• Favorite lines and locations that help the user get easy and fast access when opening the app.
• Live status of the bike docking stations so the user can see in real-time how many bikes are available and additional information regarding how it can use one.

Let's join our strength, wisdom and people under a Dome city land based. Even little in the beginning but will grow in time. We all shall contribute to build our Capital city.
Hello! Welcome to Asgardia and becoming a Resident! Working together is definitely a part of the culture we should encourage because Asgardia will only be built by the involvement and conviction of its community!

That special mineral that humans use to profess their love for one another? It might not be so special. A new study suggests that Earth's interior is filled with a quadrillion tons of diamonds.
A new study published in June in the journal
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
suggests that there are 1,000 times more diamonds below the surface of the Earth than was previously thought.
But these diamonds are unreachable: They're located about 90 to 150 miles (145 to 240 kilometers) below the surface of the Earth in the
"roots" of cratons
, which are large sections of rock. Cratons lie beneath most continental tectonic plates and have barely moved since ancient times, according to a
statement
from MIT News. [

A group of researchers from various universities around the world discovered the glitzy stash by looking at seismic waves beneath the Earth. Because these vibrations can change, based on the
composition, temperature and density
of various rocks that it hits, researchers can use these recordings to construct an image of the unreachable interior of the Earth.
They found that the underground vibrations, produced from natural processes such as earthquakes and tsunamis, tended to speed up when passing through cratonic roots; the speedup was greater than would be expected from the fact that cratons tend to be colder and less dense than surrounding structures (both of which are conditions that would speed up the waves).
Using records of seismic activity that were kept by government agencies such as the U.S. Geological Survey, the team created a three-dimensional model of the velocities of seismic waves that traveled through the planet's major cratons. Then, they created "virtual rocks" from various combinations of different minerals and calculated how
fast seismic waves
would travel through those rock compositions.
They found that the best explanation for the speeds actually observed underground versus those predicted in their virtual rock models was that 1 to 2 percent of the roots of the cratons was made up of diamonds, while the rest was made up of peridotite (the main type of rock in Earth's upper mantle) and a little bit of
eclogite rocks
(from the ocean's crust).
When "waves pass through the Earth, diamonds will transmit them faster than other rocks or minerals that are less stiff," said Joshua Garber, a postdoctoral student at UC Santa Barbara and lead author of the study.
Though "we found that much of the data were best explained by
diamond
… we cannot say for certain," Garber said. Since it's difficult to directly sample these regions (but not impossible, since sometimes parts of these cratonic roots are brought to the surface from erupting magma), this is the best explanation right now, Garber said.
But other researchers have suggested some alternative explanations: Perhaps, these cratonic rocks are cooler than what the literature suggests, which means the rock will be stiffer — and thus, seismic waves will travel more quickly through them — even without the diamond or eclogite rocks, Garber added. However, based on their data, he thinks this latter scenario is less likely.
"Our understanding of the deep Earth continues to improve as we make more measurements, do more experiments and occasionally get samples," Garber said. "I suspect we will continue to be surprised by what we find."

Dear Asgardian Brothers!
Tomorrow 04-04, we remember the 50 years of the death of the "Man who had a dream".
Martin Luther King Jr. is one of the perssonalities that had great influence in my formation.
I do not need to tell you how much this man has been or should be important to all who fight for equality in the broadest sense.
Let's take this date to reflect a bit on how hard we are actually doing to make Martin Luther King Jr's dream a reality. There are few people on the face of the earth who are worthy of good memories. This home is one of them. In a society where we used to construct statues for criminals and Genocides, and give names to Streets, Parks and Avenues, honoring Hypocrites without character, we Asgardians must express our respect for the ideals of this enlightened human being named Martin Luther King Jr.

If cybersecurity will be taken seriously in Asgardia (as it should be), then the question of what software will handle our data will inevitably come up.
My opinion on the matter is that closed source solutions and vendor lock-ins can pose a problem. Closed source solutions can undermine trust in the organization in question, since citizens would have no way of verifying the security and privacy of their data and vendor lock-ins can create technical debt, more and more of it as they pile up. The recommendation of the infosec community has long been that it is always better to use open source software that everyone can check for security holes and if necessary, paying a related company for priority support and insurance if something does go wrong, instead of paying for closed source software and praying that the company won't sell someone a backdoor or just disappear before fixing a critical bug.
Anyways, I am sure there are many people more qualified than me who can talk more in-depth about this issue, so I leave it up to them.
@Elwe, RedHat although is open source, you are not allowed to use it without a licence, ans it has proprietary packages installed. But a free alternative to that is SuSE or CentOS. I'd vote for CentOS as a wide spread OS for the Asgardian gov, but I'm more of a ...
@Elwe, RedHat although is open source, you are not allowed to use it without a licence, ans it has proprietary packages installed. But a free alternative to that is SuSE or CentOS. I'd vote for CentOS as a wide spread OS for the Asgardian gov, but I'm more of a BSD fan myself :)) I'm sure they can learn and use TrueOS (based on, but more stable then FreeBSD) and the population could go with ProjectTrident (the previous TrueOS Desktop).

It might be worth finding out how many supporters of Asgardia idea would be interested in maintaining and developing Open Source software and its implementations at their free time on regular basis. Since the community is rather tech-oriented, creating such dev teams might be just what is needed at the beginning. I myself would be eager to contribute.
That's true but, apart "we" banned one of the most security experts around (lol), the OS choice will come from the security choices so, I'm 99% sure, if we'll not directly rely on Unix (which makes little sense right now), we'll have to rely on Linux (which distro will ...
That's true but, apart "we" banned one of the most security experts around (lol), the OS choice will come from the security choices so, I'm 99% sure, if we'll not directly rely on Unix (which makes little sense right now), we'll have to rely on Linux (which distro will depend on the support).
I'm not a security expert too but I've really difficulties to see something different from Linux (or, better, *nix, which imply even *BSD) on security front.
Sure can't do security with Windows. ;-)
(historical note: even Microsoft had to adopt
*BSD
as Win kernel, to meet DoD's security standards, and it did with Windows/NT which had a BSD kernel and a BSD filesystem, NTFS, the last one still used for the next Windows releases 'till now)
