A baffling bit of trivia. Canned food was invented in the late 18th century (1772) and was patented in the early 19th century (1810) and became common pretty quick (1820s). So far so good, but what is baffling is that the first can opener did not appear until around 1850-1860 (the one below is patented in 1855). So for 50+ years people were opening the darn things with whatever tools at hand, hammers, chisels etc.

Back in the day, in Denmark, there was a tobacco brand called "Singapore Shag". Hilarious.

Oh, the irony. A stern(-ish) warning from Facebook because of a joke. They can fuck off right away!
The irony of course is that @elonmusk specifically allow jokes on #twitter and Facebook helping him prove a point.

Hilarious! Well in his 80s, John Cleese still got a bite to him. Take that Americans!

Proof!

They are going to make my life easier and fortunately I did not have to solder that myself. #FPGA

Created a quick board with 8 buttons and 8 LEDs to monitor and manipulate I/O ports on a #FPGA.
