I see that sort of thing on the web often - algorithmic ad placement (for example, an article about oilwell flaring is accompanied by an ad for wellsite equipment). Do they also use that software to produce printed newspapers?

I had written "Sweden" twice on PF somewhere, and next day I had an email starting with "Svenska" in the inbox. Eerie.

Not sure. I would have thought they would include ads for , e.g., security gadgets to go with crime news.

Those 3 images are all scenes from the Mad Max series of movies with Mel Gibson

Have you never seen any of them ? :smile: You really should spend an afternoon watching at least the first 2

As the first image states, the movie was set in the year 2021 ... next year for us :wink:D

Pretty sure I've told this one before on here, but apropos of the one above...

Three logicians walk into a bar. "Would you all like a drink?" asks the barman.

"I don't know," says the first logician.

"I don't know," says the second logician.

"Yes," says the third logician.
