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

I haven’t touched the compass app in two years but knowing me I’d open it by accident during the two days
M137@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Haven’t even thought about it being a thing since the iPhone 5. And I’m pretty sure it hasn’t been a standard app for years now.

If youre on android go and disable it

I love these

You get a trillion dollars but you have to spend the rest of your life breathing air 😱

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

PSA, never go into a dense forest thinking “I can’t get lost”.
qyron@sopuli.xyz 1 year ago
You can get lost in the middle of nowhere but I always wonder why finding a direction seems to be such an endeavour for most/so many people.
Sun rises in the east, sets at the west. Face the sun, on your left is west, south is behind your ass.

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@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Where you at? Iceland? Italy? Give me a hint!
Jumi@lemmy.world 1 year ago
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.

nah I need to check my compass every 3 seconds or I go crazy
tubaruco@lemm.ee 1 year ago
how would i know the way to the kitchen without a compass?

What good would money be if I can’t find the store?
lugal@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I have a real compass I use as little as the compass app
AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 year ago
At least you don’t have to recalibrate it every time you want to use it.
RandomVideos@programming.dev 1 year ago
Use a real compass.
There are also online compasses that you dont need any app for
lud@lemm.ee 1 year ago
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 work around you can just use your preferred maps app which almost always has a compass integrated.
hperrin@lemmy.world 1 year ago
The Boy Scouts trained me for this moment.
soulfirethewolf@lemdro.id 1 year ago
Sure, given that I don’t really have a compass app anyway
Coreidan@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Not with that attitude you don’t
GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 1 year ago
The Sun exists 😂
Possible_EmuWrangler@lemmy.world 1 year ago
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@lemmy.sdf.org 1 year ago
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.
RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yes. Because you can use a watch to do the same thing.
underwire212@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Truu the seconds hand always points true north 🙏
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I legitimately remember needing a compass at least once but could never figure out how to use those compass apps.
lilsolar@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
It’s pretty self explanatory it’s a compass lol
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I know but it still didn’t make sense to me. No matter which way I pointed my phone, the compass showed north.
frokie@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I’ll just stay home for two days without needing to know anything about which dure tío anything faces?
MaoZedongers@lemmy.today 10 months ago
What app?
lilsolar@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Compas
TIMMAY@lemmy.world 1 year ago
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)
ToxicWaste@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Spend 2.50$ for a physical compass
cmbabul@lemmy.world 1 year ago
You guys are using the compass app?
MeatsOfRage@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Get a load of this guy, just walking around all aimless
EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 1 year ago
How does he even find maidens.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 year ago
I just use the sun and stars, and occasionally the moss on a tree.

What’s even the reason to have a compass without these hot and tasty radioactive markings?
notthebees@reddthat.com 1 year ago
It’s great for field work, with documenting specimen locations with coordinates and documenting transect directions.
