        It's really too bad that Mapquest still looks like it's from the 90s

                    The real gulf of America is the gulf that Trump has ripped open between the US and its allies

                      Kind of makes me want to go back to printing 6 page instructions to destinations that I hold in my right hand and read whilst driving with my left hand.

                      Writing the directions down on a paper is still more convenient than taking out and unlocking ypur phone if a) you're on a bike; b) if it is cold out and you don't want to take off your gloves.

                              That feature actually could be just a map overlay. Who did play with oruxmaps or qgis knows what it is...

                                  Not sure this falls flat or worse. It’s the Gulf of Mexico. That’s it. Nothing else. Not even a conversation. “It is what it is”

                                    You might want to do that anyway. You know, in case everything does get shut down. I know people who can’t navigate their own city without GPS for the life of them.

                                      I think it's just making the point that anyone can name anything whatever they want, but it doesn't change what people call it. Obviously Trump thinks he's God so he probably actually thinks something has happened as a result of his declaration.

                                      The stupid thing is every country and every language has always had different words for the same places.

                                      The French don't call it France.

                                          I can draw a usefully realistic map of every city I've spent significant time in. I can also drive around a city as big as Los Angeles without GPS (though some of the fucking freeway exits in this town are fucking ass backwards).

                                          So when I'm in a taxi this weekend in a different city (not an Uber, an actual licensed cab) and he can't even figure out where you want to go when showing him the map with the location.... wow. He never actually did figure out where we wanted to go, we just held the phone for him so he could follow the GPS directions to one of the more popular neighborhoods in the town he drives in professionally.
