Maybe not the strangest but here are 2 from my vacation to London last month:
2 women walking past. One of them says:
“I talk a lot of shit, but my fart is bigger than my shit.”
Then in Covent Garden I met a very polite drug dealer:
Excuse me, do you need any weed or coke? No, well then have a very good evening.
Nice guy, big smile.
What year is this? This was a scare back in the 1970.
Un-fortify the wheat now!

Did you send in the Human fleet to defend the Citadel from the Reapers, or did you hold back ensuring Humanity had the biggest fleet after the attack?
Hitler’s generals we’re largely good generals. Many came from the Prussian school of war.
The Allies didn’t try to assassinate Hitler because Hitler was causing so many military blunders by thinking he knew better than his generals and overruling them.
If they don’t win then they can’t pay it back. If anything it gives an incentive to lend them more.

British Private Schools:
Fagging was a traditional practice in British public schools and also at many other boarding schools, whereby younger pupils were required to act as personal servants to the eldest boys.[1][2][3] Although probably originating earlier, the first accounts of fagging appeared in the late 17th century.[4]: 23 Fagging sometimes involved physical abuse[4]: 23–25 and/or sexual abuse.[5] Although lessening in severity over the centuries, the practice continued in some institutions until the end of the 20th century.[4]: 23–25
The discussion of nuclear power, much like the discussion of communism, is met with entrenched positions on Lemmy.
Break them up!
Agreed but I still agree with op :)
Ahh yes the: we can’t have self signed certificates for security reasons but also can’t open up the environment to the web, and we dont have our own CA server, trifecta.
Solution: awkward, manual, certificate import process from a 3rd party vendor.
This was my gut feel. Like the “Trip Wire” forces NATO members deploy along the Russian border States.
I do this:
Tell myself I’m not going to do it. What ever it is, I’m not going to do it.
Do the bare minimum thing like: open up a word document, turn on a tap to wash dishes, take something out of a box.
By commencing the task I’ll usually default into doing the next part like reading the document, washing a dish, sorting something out.
Additional tips:
P.S. I was in recruitment 13 years ago and once thought about throwing myself down the stairs to get out of work. I did that job for 2x years and used it to move to a better industry.
You can make change in your life.
Good luck, we’re all counting on you :)
Why are tetrapacks so good?
I assumed they were terrible as laminated paper can’t be recycled?
As I write this I start to think this might be one of those things I learned in high school that might be total BS.
This statue is is Budapest:
I was thinking about this. Can we crowd source add hash markers, in a similar way to how Sponsor Block opperates but with hashes instead of time stamps?
This is a bit different from the IPCC forecasts.
Is there an updated, well regarded, set of regional climate predictions?
I’ve never really understood the 3D gun printing use case.
Yes, they can fire bullets but bullets are illegal where guns are illegal.
Am I missing something?
There were cases where decommissioned guns could be bought in the UK (firing pins removed). Gangs were recommissioning these guns by adding the removed components.
However, where do the bullets come from?
Didn’t we learn from the pandemic that most toilet paper is produced with country borders due to high shipping costs?
At the time a DVD player cost about the same as a PS2. I remember someone buying a DVD player when the PS2 was $20 more.
They’ve got nukes though, and plenty of conventional fire power (compared to Ukraine when it was invaded).
They need to invest in a non US lead command structure as that’s all using US tech and personnel.
