The headquarters of the sudanese navy building is shaped like a ship. The air force headquarters is shaped like a plane

I couldn't find the Sudanese marine corps headquarters but it's probably shaped like a crayon.

Have to say if this was a bombing mission this really helps remove any ambiguity from targeting strategies.

This is 1940s thinking. Who is going to bomb them with bombs that aren't smart? The buildings are presumably on Google maps anyways.

Eew what kinda weird link is that. It doesnt wanna open maps in the browser and tries to force you to open it in the google maps app instead. So i literally cant look at what u posted at all.

tobogganablaze@lemmus.org · 9 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Went straight to the browser for me.

unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Yeah it, does but from there it tells you to "open in app" but i havent had any google shit on my phone for years. And its not using the standardized geo format so it wont open in other map apps.

Dark pattern - hit open, hit cancel if you do have GMaps installed, then redirects to the web version.

The shorter URL is easier to track users with shorter for UX reasons.

You just press open. The text is very confusing, though.

Worked! Good idea, didnt think of trying that.

This is very mildly interesting, cool find!

What if it's just an inside joke & actually the buildings purposes are the opposite!

The European Maritime Safety Agency building is two ships linked together.

It's what makes their forces so feared and powerful.

Microw@lemm.ee · 2 pts · 2y

Their forces have mainly been preoccupied with been killing their own citizens in recent years

You noticed the boat building, but not the airplane building? Brains are so weird.

I wonder what department is housed in the building in the lower left.

You may be experiencing a carbon monoxide leak in your home

echodot@feddit.uk · 6 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Presumably it started in childhood and it hasn't gotten any better. Even after moving house which is weird.

What a coincidence

intensely_human@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 2y

The lice hate the carbon monoxide

Are you replying to/commenting on the OP's title? Did you not read past its first sentence, into its second, mentioning the plane?

What brains

ChanchoManco@lemm.ee · 14 pts · 2y

You noticed the first sentence of the title, but not the second? Brains are so weird.

I wonder what does the last sentence says.
