This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Close, but actually Stained Germany was divided after the war into Stainless West Germany and Rusty Red East Germany.
They were separated by the Iron Curtain.

To make things even more complicated, Rust is actually in West Germany, close to the French border

Isn't that the town where they've started rewriting parts of Linux?
