Welcome to ...

The place where the world comes together in honesty and mirth.
Windmills Tilted, Scared Cows Butchered, Lies Skewered on the Lance of Reality ... or something to that effect.

Ugaritic cracked in hours


The lost language of Ugaritic was last spoken 3,500 years ago. 
It survives on just a few tablets, and linguists could only translate it with years of hard work and plenty of luck. 
A computer deciphered it in hours.
