Compas

LemmyKnowsBest ,

I legitimately remember needing a compass at least once but could never figure out how to use those compass apps.

lilsolar OP ,
@lilsolar@sh.itjust.works avatar

It’s pretty self explanatory it’s a compass lol

LemmyKnowsBest ,

I know but it still didn’t make sense to me. No matter which way I pointed my phone, the compass showed north.

lilsolar OP ,
@lilsolar@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yeah it points to where north it

LemmyKnowsBest ,

okay I understand but it wasn’t working. I could spin around in circles and the compass didn’t move. It always pointed “north” to the top of the phone. Even when I was pointing the top of the phone east or west or south.

PrettyFlyForAFatGuy ,

i blocked the instagram accout that was spewing these bullshit “you get X big number money but you can’t do Y thing you already dont do for a laughably small space of time”

but it’s followed me here

Your problem is Instagram. I would know because it is an issue for me as well.

HiddenLayer5 ,

Just use the compass in your maps app FFS who even has a dedicated compass app anymore?

RandomVideos ,

Use a real compass.

There are also online compasses that you dont need any app for

lud , (edited )

Or no compass at all.

Compasses are useless in daily life unless you are orienteering every day or are on a boat or something.

But if we have to find workarounds, you can just use your preferred map app which almost always has a compass integrated.

I haven’t used a compass in years except to prove I knew which direction the building was in for my boss.

Knowing when specific stars are at night and where the sun is (where shadows point) will tell you where north is. Knowing this stuff is why I can’t really get lost. One time I tried but even in dense forest, the shadows never lie

baseless_discourse ,

PSA, never go into a dense forest thinking “I can’t get lost”.

dewritoninja ,

In my city it’s even easier, there’s a friggin huge volcano right to the west, the city it’s built at its foot. Just look at the volcano and left is south, right is north

victorz ,

Where you at? Iceland? Italy? Give me a hint!

lud ,

According to previous comments they seem to live in Ecuador.

Jumi ,

And if you don’t know which direction to go just go downhill. It has the highest chance of finding a river and humans always liked to settle on rivers.

If you're lost in a forest, don't talk to the shadows.

TIMMAY ,

I never use that app for its main purpose but I do play around with it occasionally. I recently found im at about ~780 ft above sea level (idk what that is in logical units like meters probably at least 4 meters murica)

I never use the compass app. I simply pick a direction and walk. Wherever I stop is where I truly wanted to go.

Burninator05 ,

A holistic traveler. You just wander and always end up wherever you’re supposed to be.

shadoh ,

You know that every time I try to go Where I really wanna be It’s already where I am 'Cause I’m already there

Possible_EmuWrangler ,

Imma go see if the Southern Cross is still a thing. Or maybe I should just load up with two weeks of beer and wait it out. Why not both?

thisbenzingring ,

I almost feel like you’d have to be completely daft if you can’t find the Crux. It’s like that space of stars is so distinct, nothing else in the southern sky comes close.

Hey, get that bare bear ass out of here or at least warn with a nsfw tag or something

root_beer ,

Oh god I don’t know man I’d be jonesin’ for some ‘pass if I stop using it for too long

Totally worth losing out on that $250 million not go into withdrawal

Pronounced “piss”

lugal ,

I have a real compass I use as little as the compass app

AnUnusualRelic ,
@AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world avatar

At least you don’t have to recalibrate it every time you want to use it.

soulfirethewolf ,

Sure, given that I don’t really have a compass app anyway

Coreidan ,

Not with that attitude you don’t

frokie ,

I’ll just stay home for two days without needing to know anything about which dure tío anything faces?

ToxicWaste ,

Spend 2.50$ for a physical compass
