Nope. It’s the 12th of December . Just like the 4th of July, or having Christmas “on the 25th”

Sounds like a black mirror episode

There have been a few articles recently blaming “google maps” for people driving into stupid places. The previous one I saw was where someone drove off the end of a bridge that had been washed out a year ago and not yet rebuilt.

In both cases, I feel the driver was to blame. They were the one operating the vehicle and ignoring all the indications of danger around them, not google.

If google maps told you to drive off a cliff …

Ahhh

A third what?

Thanks for the examples

In the corporate world ? Generally not, because IT can’t force group policy out using AD.

The field isn’t located at the north or south pole - you’re not 400km away from it, you’re immersed inside the field, and your compass is showing the local alignment of that field.

Just about anything with an EM field of its own will be stronger than that.

The earth’s magnetic field is much weaker than a simple coil in a transformer, as can be easily demonstrated by holding a compass near said device and watching the needle align with that instead of the earth.
