  1. Interesting that the Location is pretty correct by the inch on the map here on RDN ...

    1. @lyokotravels There's a reason I never let the site share my location.

    2. @lyokotravels Hah. most of the time it's several hundred miles off.

      1. @starshine Mine's about 5 miles off. Shared it on accident at my parents once, and it was accurate even to which corner of the property I was in.

        1. @eaglehooves Were you posting from a phone or something? Because I think the mobile apps use GPS to get your position if you have it turned on.

          1. @starshine From my laptop via the family wifi.

            1. @eaglehooves GPS card on your laptop or something? I dunno how it could possibly be that accurate otherwise.

              1. @starshine It does the same thing to me. I should post again from my 3DS and see if the location's any different.

                  1. @redenchilada And now from the laptop, to compare!

                    1. @redenchilada That's almost 20 miles off...

              2. @starshine I dunno either. I don't think RDN can access the anti-theft. Maybe just lucky. (Or not, as I didn't want anyone to know anything at the time.)

    4. @thatonepony Not usually. Just comparing the location output from my 3DS with my laptop.
