Strava is the best for this. Screenshot of Strava creating exponentially more mountain biking travel than I actually did, yet in the same amount of time.

This is more about the weird pathing and not the distance, but here's what it looks like when I have a bouldering session. Apparently I spend a lot of time outside and pass through walls.

Just standard GPS drift tbh

Kind of goes haywire when cell signal drops out. Might be in a brick or concrete building? Mine was in an area of the mountains where using the phone was doomed. I've been using a garmin since and it never does this. In a pinch, I used my phone on a hike the other day, and next to big boulder, it did the same thing you're showing, sent an impossibly straight line up a mountain.

Get it with a Garmin that uses the two satellite types and worse with a Suntu I use for extreme outdoors. Must be a tin roof or something.

Bouldering inside a faraday cage.

Also you can add a text description of the image between the brackets if you'd like. It helps blind people.

Oh, so it becomes alt text? That's brilliant. It just disappeared but I didn't realize what happened. Or I'm misunderstanding ~~(not seeing the text)~~. Nope, I see it if I click on show source.

Also, some apps like Voyager will show the alt text as a caption when you open the image.

That's what I was expecting. Have to check that out. Thanks.

Maths guy, how long would it take barry to cover this distance?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

Fractions of a fraction of a second. Barry can run much much faster than light and at light speed this distance would take ~1.6 seconds.

Edit: corrected my incorrect math because i read mi as meters

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This is clearly a comma-is-thousands number of miles (as is consistent with places that use miles).

It's 1.66 seconds at light speed.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, I read mi as m at first. Doesn't really change the statement since Barry can run trillions of times faster than light.
