<me> can someone file a bug report on OSM for me? I’d like osm.org to remember the last used location
[…]
<TomH> well your browser is broken then, you should have an _osm_location cookie that tracks the location
<me> I do have _osm_session and _osm_location, this works only for the duration of the session. As soon as I close and restart the browser, the location is reset when I visit osm
<TomH> maybe – I can’t remember if that is a session cookie or not, I thought that one had a longer expiry but I might be wrong
<TomH> hmm.. no, it is a session cookie
<TomH> I think I need my javascript book to work out how to fix it – I’ll try and have a look at it later
<me> if you can, poke me when you want me to test it 🙂
[20 minutes later]
<TomH> location expiry should be fixed now
<me> oh wow *tests*
<me> awesome! it works, thanks! my most annoying longstanding bug with osm is now fixed 🙂
