    @cstross I'm pretty sure the original was in Russian. "muhym" is misinterpreted "минут", ie. "minutes" (in handwriting Cyrillic и looks exactly like Latin u and н looks like n) etc.

      @cstross "Don't be so careful in time of death" is very 2026 energy.

                          Real "Send three and fourpence we are going to a dance" energy there. Did someone dictate it into something set for the wrong language?

                          Mayor Snorkum would approve.

                            @cstross Being careful in time of death is overrated anyway, but the pacclabmech... really? That's too much.

                                          @cstross I'm pretty sure the original was in Russian. "muhym" is misinterpreted "минут", ie. "minutes" (in handwriting Cyrillic и looks exactly like Latin u and н looks like n) etc.

                                          Okay, but that would mean that what happened here wasn't just a straight Russian to English text translation.

                                          Instead it would seem that there's been an image with Russian text which then was read in with some dumb OCR software that had no understanding of cyrillic alphabet.

                                          Then the already broken Russian langauge was translated to English resulting in even more broken English.
