I'm a lovecraftian horror from space. What is your excuse?

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!

Have a looks at the Hobart's Funnies designs section:

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.

I've never seen one before, no one has, but I'm guessing it's a white hole

The mountains of madnesses would be a very good fit for the Tin Tin vibe as well.

I'd read this.

The discussion of nuclear power, much like the discussion of communism, is met with entrenched positions on Lemmy.

Break them up!

Might have been black flag. I dont think it was the 1st one.

I remember un skippable cut scenes and the inability to run.

One of the AC games, I forget which, had levels in a games company's office. I think they were developing games using the animus.

Turns out, the corp was evil and there was an AC fight to escape.

If they'd have been WFH then that evil corp wouldn't have been uncovered.

Just saying this is maybe a bad move for corporate.

P.S. I'm pretty sure the antagonist (CEO?) was French?

I'm going from 10 year old memory banks so may be misremembering (in case my incredibly solid account threw you).

 

I've been playing around with Google Maps lately to create custom maps.

I don't like google but have no experience with any other apps and have never tried mapping of any sort before.

I'm trying to create a map layer(s) that has historic sites, stone circles, woodland, cemeteries, UNESCO sites etc. So if I'm traveling I can stop and see them.

I've created my own Google Map using lists of sites from Wikipedia. This has gone ok but leads to a lot of data cleansing and the functionality isn't great.

I've seen this website but it isn't as complete as the Wikipedia text lists ive imported: https://www.hmdb.org/

I'm completely new to this and have no experience. Are there any good resources out there for me to use or contribute to?

I'd like to de-google as much as possible.

P.S. do I need to enable developer mode or root my phone to install open street map now?

Thanks!

 

Can anyone recommend some SciFi books with well written female characters?

I've recently read Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie and am looking for well constructed, non male, well thought out characters.
