Guys, I know the exact location of this super secret military base called the pentagon; I can share the coordinates for the right price
This reminds me of how, on the early Apple Newtons, you could search the Map app for "Area 51" and it would give the correct coordinates, even though that base didn't officially exist according to the government.
Plus it changed your theme to flying saucers which was fun.
The Apple Newton had a Map app? Not the iPhone, the Newton? The one from the '90s, with a max of 8 megabytes of storage?
I remembered incorrectly. It’s actually the time zone map. It didn’t have a map application
That makes so much more sense.
Google Maps does (did?) the UFO thing as well.
As long as it isn't the top-secret meeting room / Hotdog stand
