I'd argue the whole map should be blue.

[-] cRazi_man@lemm.ee 16 points 1 month ago

Technically correct......the best kind of correct.

[-] zkfcfbzr@lemmy.world 52 points 1 month ago

Going through the center of the Earth, that region in China is only 2.96 Chiles from Chile. I'd like to see a corrected map that accounts for subsurface travel.

[-] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 15 points 1 month ago

Only if you can demonstrate that subsurface travel is possible given current technology, and therefore reasonable to account for.

I am personally concerned about the possibility of Chile firing neutrinos directly at me through the Earth.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

This, too, shall pass (right thru you without incident).

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

What about a meson gun?

[-] CptEnder@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Well first of all, through Chile all things are possible, so jot that down.

[-] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 2 points 1 month ago

If we're digging a hole to China, it will be literally through Chile.

[-] drolex@sopuli.xyz 24 points 1 month ago

Argentinians will claim that Uyghurs in labour camps live the easy life, 5 Chiles away from Chile

[-] Badeendje@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Americans will use ANY form of measurement except metric, won't they?

[-] Goldmage263@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

True. This is how I know I'm American, because I love this map.

[-] scholar@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Surely the red area is less than 1 Chile away from Chile and the Orange area is between 1 and 2 Chiles away.

[-] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Less than 5 or more than 4?

[-] abfarid@startrek.website 8 points 1 month ago

Less than 5 and* more than 4.

[-] three@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

This map has no right being this thicc.

[-] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

I live within 2 Chiles of Chile. My ancestors come from 4 Chiles away from Chile. This information is now taking up space in my brain.

[-] luciferofastora@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

Are you an Arab-Antarctican?

[-] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

No but that was one of the possibilities.

I no cachai

[-] graphene@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

So there is an area in China that is truly safe?

[-] MonkCanatella@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

this is what progress looks like

[-] TychoQuad@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

If I went as close as I could get to Antarctica without crossing any water, I would be exactly 2 Chiles away from Chile

[-] TychoQuad@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Oh shit! They found me!

[-] nik9000@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

If I went as close as I could get to Antarctica without crossing any water, I would be in Chile. If I could cross the Darian Gap.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

One and a little bit, and husband lived in Chile, so one degree removed person-wise.

A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".
