More than 100 such ancient artifacts have been found throughout Europe, but nobody knows what they are
  • A Roman dodecahedron, a mysterious 12-sided metal object, was discovered in the village of Norton Disney in England.
  • The artifact is in excellent condition and is larger than many other dodecahedrons that have been found.
  • The purpose of these objects remains unclear, but theories suggest they may have been used for ritualistic or religious purposes.

    I wouldn’t say it’s awesome at glove fingers. It can be used to knit glove fingers but other configurations would be much better. It’s like guessing that a Super Nintendo was used as a hammer: yeah, you could use it for that if you tried really hard, but if you were setting out to make a hammer you wouldn’t make it Super Nintendo-shaped. https://www.cracked.com/article_32125_no-these-mysterious-roman-artifacts-probably-arent-knitting-aides.html

        20 years? They were fine until that broadcasting company bought them in 2016 and highly pushed Facebook video content. That failed and they paid damn near everyone off. I remember their video content being some random old dude for a couple years after and no new articles. They’ve got a writing staff now but their comedic chops are pretty lacking.

      When all you got is a Super Nintendo, everything looks like a middle aged plumber.
