TIL the last U-Boat sinking of WW2 was in April 1945: in the Firth of Forth in Scotland when a Norwegian freighter was sunk.

Some of the U-Boats were out of communication with German high command and didn't know their country had surrendered.

@lizzard I grew up on the coast there. I think Firth is an old Scottish word related to the Scandinavian fjord.

You know it's a genuine Francis Ford Coppola movie production when it goes massively over budget, has last minute actor replacements, and is almost destroyed by a typhoon

Theresa May suggesting Boris Johnson's biography should be in the "current affairs" section of the bookshop is quite the burn

The tragedy of the West today is the combination of serious times and unserious voters.

Apparently the guy who tried to assassinate Fico had Russian paramilitary connections.

Hard to see a Russian motive for it though, Fico was pretty much their ideal candidate.

@hengymrohebwlad sure, but Fico was another Orban in the making, a godsend to Putin. Stirring the pot has no guarantee they will get a good replacement.

Predictably, they are blaming Ukraine, but that's their instinctive flex for everything these days.

I keep writing "quertyset" instead of "queryset" when writing #django, like I'm just hitting the first 5 keys of my laptop each time

Sunak doing one of his "angry" speeches reminds me of the scene in the Inbetweeners when Will "Briefcase Wanker" gets all his classmates banned from the pub

@EA7KRC Christopher Hitchens once wrote about getting spanked by Margaret Thatcher. Not sure if he was entirely joking but he also wasn't clear whether he enjoyed it or not.

Got a CRT telly with a HDMI input a couple years ago as a Goodwill impulse buy for 99 cents. Works and everything, tested it in the shop.

It's sat under a pinball for two years while I find room to set it up, I never once tried plugging anything into it

Anyway I've found somewhere for it to live and started making plans for a stand and figured I'd test it and found out it's a piece of shit lol

@ifixcoinops because the guy who suggested "let's make decent products for a change" at the meeting got tossed out of the window

Micro-dosing LSD or taking ayahuasca trips don't cut it. You end up with ideas like everything should be an NFT

YouTube is basically the Torment Nexus for people who produced mediocre sci-fi shows in the late 20th century

That low-budget evening entertainment you did for a credit on your CV will forever be discussed in the future by weird nerds on a video channel with too many children's toys displayed on shelves in their bedrooms
