What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Who was CIA Director before VP, President

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

Yeah. Only for one year though. I had previously thought his CIA involvement was more extensive.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yes it is. If it was named after dubya it would be funnier. Still the worst levels of the old testament, but funny, in an ironic, we are all doomed way.

Damn, thats a callback

When i was 14 i won a scholarship for school and was able to travel to Canberra and do some random crap.

Ontop of that we were able to put on a play for some high up generals and MP's.

I put in one joke that was basically "we have received intelligence from he USA... then someone intergects America has intelligence?"

Had the crowed in stitches.

It's fun to think you're political opposites are dumb. But in reality the dude did exactly what he and his squad wanted, changing the course of history for decades to come. Yes rove and Cheney did lots but ultimately they all played their role and achieved (terrible) greatness

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Right, this is named after George H Bush.
