Yeah GPS can find your location in a second, but if your batteries die, your f~~~ed.    Besides its f~~~ing cool knowing how our ancient mariners explored the whole world without GPS.   Makes you appreciate how smart those men were back then.

 

It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion, it is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning; it is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

Well chir, I might not be stretching as far as that but in my job I have a lot of diving to do and for the most part I try to remember all the relevant locations and how to get from A to B to C by heart, but I am very glad to say that I can easily navigate not only by satnav systems but by the good old school map as well, which basically is also a helpful tool if batteries are running out and that surely already helped me out on quite a few occasions, too…

I'd rather die a natual death with a clear MGTOW conscience somewhere off the grid than one within "modern" civilisation with a big stress mark on my forehead and a couple of dozen tubes plugged into my body. Back to the plantation..? Me..? Hey, literally: I won't ever fucking kid myself...YZERLMNTSIC
