Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

In 2016, over 300 wild reindeer were killed by a single lightning strike on the Hardangervidda plateau in Norway (lemmy.world)

Lapland is in Finland. Hardangervidda is in Norway. It is flat as well though.

Oh, sorry I just assumed Lapland when I saw reindeer.

Lapland - or Sápmi to be precise, but that's an even larger area - is in the North of Finland, Sweden and Norway.
