Snarky history. Hideous French battleships. Nautical nonsense. Always check the alt text.
Functionally impossible - you're looking for mere centimetres of movement at most when a second of time gained or lost by a chronometer is a quarter mile of error (and similar issues pertain to celestial methods)

Erm, I think you're looking at the hedge in the foreground

(I've visited the Abraham Crijnsen, and regret to announce they've removed the topiary)

(Okay, okay - the real OG stone frigate here is Diamond Rock, which was commissioned into the Royal Navy as the slowest warship on record, with a top speed equivalent to whatever continental drift could conjure up. Looks less like a ship though.)

Quite a few elder millennials are going to get a terrible earworm, so consider yourself lucky.

Regrettably one such sufferer is myself, but you can't make omelettes etc etc...

See, this is why we build a water filled PVC pyramid in a friends room over his bed. We wanted to keep him sharp.

Sadly, time, the death of another friend, and decay of the internet has taken the tale of The Humphrey Room Inconveniencer away.

It's not escaped my notice that - just like generative AI - a substantial amount of use cases can be summed up as "make sexy lady appear"

Hah! My bad... I'm trying to chase down a million quid that had accidentally wandered off, so my mental processing power is dangerously divided...

What was the 90s fishing show he was involved in called? Screaming Reels? Always seemed pretty aware of what made for good TV rather than good fishing, and I don't mean that as a criticism.

(And yes, he is involved)
