What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Link to the site

The map contains exact locations of homocides from the 2000s to now. You can zoom in far enough to see the neighborhood the murder(s) happened in. I'm sorry that the site is primarily in Norwegian, but you should still be able to zoom around. Wonder of there's a global map that's that detailed.

This documentary was inspired by the murder of Gunnar Gunnarssonsson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-OOpZitfd0

So if I visit the area, just avoid Norway and go hangout in Stockholm instead.

Damn... seeing the faces of the victims makes the impact even bigger.

Looks like there is a little bit of space for a new "northernmost" murder left; southernmost is already a done deal.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

I’d like to see such a map for mass shootings in the U.S.

The UK has something similar but you can search by all types of crime https://crimerate.co.uk/crime-map

When you're logged out, you can only access data on antisocial people, like logged out of society.

Love the accidental metaphor

I'm already signed up as I'm house hunting and I tried this to get a vague idea of where to move to.

This is what it looks like for England/Wales

No statistics for Manchester, though. I haven't looked into why that's a thing.

Edit:

A small section of Central London. It only tells you the rate vs the national average. The red in the population box at the top showing that crime here is more than 3x the national average (it doesn't show any higher figures)

Being able to look through all of the details of the victims and crimes feels a little ghoulish.

Now I want to know how many murders happened across Jo Nesbø's novels compared to the actual number of murders in Norway.

What the island halfway down the shaft that's way off the mainland?
