Well, the Norwegian #football match between #Rosenborg and #Viking was not first class action. But the stadion experience represented so many things which are completely lost in #Bundesliga
#mastodonfc
No aggression in the stands; no police or security controls needed; tense, but always friendly atmosphere; no throwing of beer (ok, think it happened somewhere in Norway some time ago, too) or other stuff on the pitch.

And I'd totally exchange those Ultras for some stadium seagulls - when the game got boring they were so much fun to watch.

Lidt nørderi til weekenden.. Jeg bruger Heliboard som tastatur på min android telefon, og det har en herlig funktion - nemlig at man nemt kan lave sit eget keyboard layout. Når man så nu har siddet og nørdet lidt i runer, og samtidigt finder ud af at runerne er en del af unicode, ja så giver det jo sig selv. Jeg præsenterer her den yngre futhark: ᚠᚢᚦᚬᚱᚴ ᚼᚾᛁᛅᛋ ᛏᛒᛘᛚᛦ. God weekend 🤗

After the famous Battle of #Hastings, the Duke of #Normandy, the #Viking descendant, #WilliamTheConqueror became the #English king.

"To help take back his kingdom, [Irish King] #MacMurchada invited the #Normans to Ireland in 1169. The move soon backfired when the #Normans [King #HenryII] took his domain for themselves.

The #Norman invasion was a watershed in the history of Ireland, 👉marking the...

To elaborate on the subject, I'd argue, that for almost all of the second millennium, #Ireland being ruled by the royals that sat on the #English throne, rather than being an autonomous region, was the norm:

After #Norse invasions starting in 795 AD, Ireland became autonomous again only in 101A, when "the famed high king #BrianBoru defeated a #Viking force at the...

Those Viking 1 maps are only about 20 m across, and are made from a reprojected surface panorama. A rover could collect rocks imaged by Viking 1 or follow up on its discoveries. The dots in map E were not explained, just schematic potential targets. One problem with this - at that period it would have been utterly impossible to land within a reasonable roving distance of the lander even if they knew exactly where it was.

More Mars 1984 sample return sites are shown here. Youngish volcanic deposits near Apollinaris Mons (near the Spirit rover site) are shown at top left. Ancient crust would be sampled near Schiaparelli crater (top right). Rocky areas particularly suitable for sampling are shown in white in the middle map, with a few other suggested sites. The maps at the bottom are perhaps the most intriguing. They show the Viking 1 landing site...
