200 miles is long range now?
That doesn't even get you from Perth to Kalgoorlie, both in the same state..
I feel like about 3 commenters will know where these places are
Well...
Sounds pretty long range to me.
I feel compelled to represent as a moderator of c/perth/westernaustralia over on the Aussie-Zone server.
There are tots-defs ten or twenty people here that will understand this hop, skip and a jump reference.
So, ah, yeah, sure showed you! 3! pffft!
Lemmy moment. Isn't federation great?
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
That's me .. niche geography .. with only a few million people who might know what I'm talking about.
You could shoot a long range missile and hit and it would still stay in the same state.
To blow your mind, Kalgoorlie isn't even halfway across the width of the state and that's the short dimension.
If it was an independent country, which was at one point seriously considered, it would be the 10th largest country in the world.
It's three and a half times bigger than Texas.
The Texas mind cannot comprehend this.
But it would go from Westlock to Athabasca. Checkmate, atheists.
