A rare pink diamond is set to go on display in France for the first time since it was stolen nearly 100 years ago, around the time it was last shown to the public
This 9 carat, pear-shaped gemstone was one of the few royal jewels to survive the French Revolution
I am always confused by anecdotes like this. Are there substantial sums of people who don't look up how long a journey will be before they start driving?
No directions, just "i want to go south, i reckon it'll take 6 hours or so?"
@jamesperrott1 Opposite problem, people don't play bedrock for other reasons and so when they do they assume whatever new garbage they see is "normal" lol
A good number of people ask me quite seriously, why do you still play bedrock? It's a good question, and when you how trashy they're set on making the main menu, it seems sometimes like maybe people asking are right.
I also think though that very few creators playing bedrock is actually bad for the platform and the 80% of the community playing it. Outside of the occasional viral bugrock moment or parity request very little attention is brought to the game and its day to day problems.
I think it's important that someone is doing that, even if we take it as a given that it would improve my experience slightly to be on java
In 1982, Titanic survivor Ruth Becker was giving a speech. She explained how she watched the massive ship snap completely in half before it sank.
Mid-sentence, an "expert" literally snatched the microphone out of her hand. He publicly humiliated her, telling the crowd she was "confused" and that the ship sank in one piece.
For 70 years, that was the official history. Exactly 3 years later, they found the wreck on the ocean floor.
It was broken clean in two. Ruth was right all along.
Throwback to this Tv advert from 1986 when a Japanese battery company wanted to promote the strength of its batteries..🔋
Yes, this actually happened. 😭
