    Ships and planes went from magnetic compasses to GPS?

    The Bermuda Triangle a geological phenomenon, there’s a lot of ferrous ore close to the surface and that fucks with magnets and radio signals. But equipment went digital, started using satellites, and is generally more powerful and better shielded now. So I’m assuming it’s less of a problem enough to tough through it, or just no longer a problem at all.
