The archeologists found a secret tomb right under the Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade filming location at Petra. The most impressive is the fact that they found a skeleton that is holding a vessel that looks like the Holy Grail (like in the movie).

The archeologists holding axis picks and shovels is a hilarious image. I have worked as an axe-shovel man myself in archeological excavations and archeologists are like rock stars with nose in the sky you'll barely see them at site let alone holding shovels.



Is like seeing a doctor in a hospital sweeping the floor or something hahaha

New Zealand. MP Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke stood to deliver her party's vote, against the Treaty Principles Bill. Labour and Green MPs stood, appearing to support the haka, which started after Te Pāti Māori was called to vote on the bill.⁠

AWS outage reminds us why $2,449 Internet-dependent beds are a bad idea

Unfortunately, I can’t say I’m all that surprised.
