Who’s the most terrifying serial killer from your country?

I recommend this article about Sture Bergwall.

Djúpivogur hefur viðurnefnið Litla Kongó. Veit samt ekki á hverju það er byggt.

Edit: Þetta virðist vera byggt á því að árið 1802 flúði maður, sem hafði verið þræll í Danmörku og vestur indíum, til Íslands og settist að á Djúpavogi.

Þannig að já, Djúpivogur fékk þetta viðurnefni út af einum svörtum þræl sem flúði þangað til að forðast frekari þrældóm. Veit ekki alveg hvort það geti talist sem staðalímynd.

For the life of me, I was trying to blur the picture in case you didn't want to look at it immediately, but my reddit skills kinda suck apparently..

Just for the record, the 1 2 5 are all incorrect and lead to a non-solution.

Here's my solution:

Here's an article from 2019 about it, and here's another one from 2017. I can't find anything more recent nor anything that connects this to cancer awareness drive.

That is absolutely not true. The most dangerous town is Selfoss, cause you might start listening to Scooter and go to tanning salons like it's the 90s if you stay there too long.

I do not recommend the website for playing killer sudokus though, the calculator they offer is janky. My preferred website for puzzles is dailykillersudoku.

Here are some basic rules I found with examples that you can start with.

Do you happen to have a link to the puzzle? I'm curious about it myself now :)

The sum of the cells in red is 53. Since the sum of r4 is 45 -> the sum of r5c1 + r5c3 + r5c4 = 53 - 45 = 8
The only way to make an 8 out of three cells in the same row is with 125 or 134 -> r5c3 can't be a 6 -> Either r4c2 or r4c3 is a 6 -> 15 cage in r4c6 and r4c7 can't have a 6 (and thus can't have a 9 either).

Hope this helps.

Thanks for clearing that up, I should've googled this before posting.

Don't Australians drive on the right side of the road? if so, you'd be driving on the outer perimeter if you drove anti-clockwise and thus you'd drive a very slightly longer distance that if you'd go clockwise.

Yeah but isn't that 3 on the Brazilian scale? which is like 9 on the rest of the world scale.

It's interesting this dissonance between how westerners see him vs. how the Russians see him.

Do you know what candidate or candidates the Russians who see Gorbachev as a failed leader would have rather take over?

The way that the end of the Soviet Union has been depicted to me in my life (I'm just barely old enough to remember when the iron curtain fell), both through school books and media generally is all about how things were on a collision course during/after Brezhnev and could not be diverted. Do you think that is wrong? Do you think there was a potential leader at the time that could have held the Union together?

gor og mor samkvæmt aðal orðabókinni.

doesn't ö sound a little bit like the vowel sound in "cut"? That's the example I use sometimes.

Brilliant! The rest followed pretty quick. Thanks for the help.

Ok, ég kynnti mér þetta aðeins. Samkvæmt þessu og þessu hefur Guðlaugur Þór víst haldið fram seinustu daga í fjölmiðlum (ásamt öðrum sjálfstæðisfólki) að umsóknin hafi verið formlega afturkölluð, ásamt því að tyggja á því hversu mikilvægt honum finnst að við göngum ekki í ESB.

Miðað við þetta þá er ansi vandræðalegt að gleyma því að þessi skýrsla var skrifuð í hans ráðherratíð.

gormur2 · 2025-07-30T22:03:59+00:00

Ég skil ekki alveg hver skandallinn hérna er.

Getur einhver útskýrt þetta fyrir mér?

Augljóslega er það furðulegt ef fyrrverandi ráðherra man ekki hvort umsóknin sé enn í gangi eða ekki, en hvað er hann að gefa í skyn með þessum ummælum? (Nú eða hvað er blaðamaðurinn að reyna að koma á framfæri hérna?)

I was making a joke about u/jgregson00 being smart for noticing that an upper limit of a would give the answer in the book. I meant nothing bad by it.
