    Am I the only one who cannot see 1800 Ladladlad’s content?
    His posts are there but the post is always blank.
    What am I doing wrong?
    (I’m on an iPad btw)

    They don't appear for me on my phone, but are there on my PC, so it's probably the iPad that causes you not to see them.

    There are several types of images that don't appear in different browsers from time to time.
    I edit some posts to separate the links out if they don't appear in firefox, but if they do show up OK for me there is no guarantee that they show up in all browsers.

    This is why we encourage people to include the raw link when they embed images, just to give people an alternative way to see the images

    After placing Laika in the container and before closing the hatch, we kissed her nose and wished her bon voyage, knowing that she would not survive the flight.
    Gets me right in the feels. :(

    The links aren't broken. the file type isn't viewable on mobile.
    If he provides the link, the file type doesn't change so it's still not viewable.

    Sometimes they're not visible on a computer, either - it depends on the browser.

    I'm pretty sure it was later than that, my last day in the office was the 23rd and the "proper" lockdown started after that. An announcement was made on Paddy's day or the day before, though.

    Meanwhile at Benetton
    https://i.postimg.cc/3xgtk6zn/IMG-20200801-155616.jpg

    Those are from former Benetton ad campaigns from the 80s-90s.

    The photographer, Oliviero Toscani, was infamous for those. The message was that everyone is equal, they're supposed to be messages against racism and discrimination. Some of his images were quite strong, depicting people dying of AIDS and asylum seekers.

    Probably not as because it is a flag it will not have any steering ropes on it, it would slow you down that's for sure.

    Announcement to close schools was 12th March, effective day after (Friday 13th). Lockdown itself happened a few weeks later, but a lot of people has already started the working from home gig by then.

    A man was driving along the motorway when he noticed a chicken running alongside his car. He was amazed to see the chicken keeping up with him, as he was doing 60 mph. He accelerated to 70, and the chicken stayed right next to him. He sped up to 75 mph, but the chicken overtook him.

    Then the man noticed that the chicken had four legs. So he followed the chicken, speeding all the way, and ended up at a farm. He got out of his car and saw that all the chickens on the farm had four legs.

    When he spotted the farmer he asked him, "Where did you get these chickens?"

    The farmer replied "Well, everybody likes chicken legs, so I bred a four-legged bird. I'm going to be a millionaire."

    The man was impressed and asked him how they tasted. The farmer said, "Don't know, I haven't caught one yet."

    Zhuge Liang had 100 men to defend a town. And then an army of 150,000 shows up :eek:



    Liang, recognising that the situation was hopeless, ordered his men to take down the flags, open the gates, and hide and disguise themselves as civilians. Liang himself then sat upon the wall of the town in a Tao robe and played a lute.

    The opposing general, Sima Yi, recognised Liang and knew of his military and tactical capabilities. Seeing how calm Liang remained in the face of such a large force, Yi was certain that it was a trap and ordered a retreat.


    Bonus :
    In 603 BC Chinese Chu warrior Xiong Yiliao stepped out in front of an invading army and started juggling 9 balls and the other army went away...
