Upper Slobovia????

 

Sometimes i just can't figure out where Garmin comes from with these updates. Express tells me i have two updates on my units, but it doesn't know i have north american maps on them? Well it should since it never gives me a euro map update. That option of course isn't available for me. But yet... i have an update for a new german digital provider. I won't bother with it, but since its a software update it will sooner or later get on my devices.

Update. So i got two updates, one is for timezones and the other is a software release for that german digital provider. So i choose just to update the timezone. They show as two different updates, so i thought. Never checked the software update. Guess what? It updated the software release anyways. Booted the gps up just to check and sure enough it tells me software updated to 9.70. So much for choices.

And you'd have to have the proper maps installed. Lower Slobovia is not in the NA map set.

No you don't

if that were true why would i get a new german digital provider update on both my Garmins that has only north american maps on it?

You absolutely must try to fit in a visit to Upper Slobovia. Hardly any of the residents in Upper Slobovia wear rubber boot and the beer tastes like real beer.

Mind the incoming

Vladimir Putin may soon decide that the ethnic Russians of Upper Slobovia require protective intervention, as they are experiencing genocide. If your time zone download indicates an interest in that location, protection of Russian state interests may require intervention on your device.

Do you need to enjoy eating beets or kohlrabi for this to be true?

I am sorry to have to say this but it seems common sense and a sense a sense of humor no longer exist.

It's worse than that

Nothing really exists!

It's all a figment of your very bad imagination! wink
