Because all employees and visitors come with their phones Google knows how many people usually visit this place. Now in the crisis there are more visitors and longer work hours. Google sees it and publish it on Google Maps.
This works for any other NATO installation and your personal doctor.

Allegedly he made it for US $8000. The '90s and '00s CGI updates "Star Quest" and "Outerworld" could not and did not improve what was already obsessively crafted, slow-burning minature model perfection.

I couldn't sleep so I finally made this "Right-Click Borescope" idea I've had in my head for a while. Lets you right click on a spot on a webpage and get a list of all images at that point

"The Jump campaign asks people to sign up to take the following six “shifts” for one, three or six months:

- Eat a largely plant-based diet, with healthy portions and no waste

- Buy no more than three new items of clothing per year

- Make at least one life shift to nudge the system, like moving to a green energy, insulating your home or changing pension supplier"
