Well, that narrows it down.
@designatednerd I hate that I know this means it got zero’ed out basically instead of decrypting a legit location (default) 🥲
@bgannin well I’m also on a cruise so that may have something to do with it
@designatednerd @bgannin I don't suppose there's a mechanism that lets cruise ships and other moving locations offer local navigation on top of the global position? I can see this being nontrivial.
@uliwitness @designatednerd For general location it’s CLLocation + rev geo. It would require either full GPS (not possible on AirTag) or beacons on the boat to be precise. Essentially the cruise ship could be a floating indoor map.

@bgannin @designatednerd Yeah, I was thinking of how indoor mapping is done, the problem would just be that as soon as the boat is treated as an indoor map, you lose any actual location information (i.e. where in the world the boat is).

Wondering if there is a way to tell a beacon its own geo coordinate, so ship GPS could update the beacons periodically to tell you what country you're in?

@bgannin @designatednerd I’ve had this happen to me and it even got added as one of my “home” locations, but it’s in the Atlantic, not the Pacific Ocean 😁
@trollkatt @bgannin looks like you’re over at null island there
@designatednerd I’m sure it’ll float on by soon.
@designatednerd had a rough fucking day. This made me laugh. Thank you.
@designatednerd @RebeccaSlatkin I feel bad for laughing, but I laughed anyway. Good luck finding them.
@tewha @RebeccaSlatkin luckily they are attached to my backpack that is on a cruise ship.
@designatednerd I like how this could not be less specific. Literally. It is the worlds largest contiguous named area.
@designatednerd probably at the beach, taking in the smog and waves
@designatednerd couldn't the location be more pecific?
@designatednerd mine were in the mid-Atlantic last year …¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@designatednerd Wow. I'm lucky. I have a much smaller ocean to go through.
@designatednerd @F30 but where do you put the air tag...
@designatednerd *Surfaces empty-handed in Atlantic Ocean, sees this tweet* Goddammit
@designatednerd I live near Pacific Ocean. I'll keep my eyes open for them!
@designatednerd It would be more helpful if it was a specific ocean.
