prefect posted:the windows 95 time zone map was so cool while it lasted the contested area for india and pakistan was 8 pixels but india and pakistan having completely pointless spats over borders is basically part of their cultural heritage at this point (see also the thousands dead, mostly due to the elements, to get as much land of the siachen glacier as possible, which has zero natural resources or value whatsoever but there's no loving way we're going to let those other guys have it  )
