Just to check, I kept going and it was 50 questions (!) before one applied to the characters I SHOT J R.

Thanks!

I saw it uses a flowchart approach (e.g. serifs or no serifs), which seems like a good alternative to the OCR approach but also had me thinking I might have to go through a lot of questions (some which I might not know how to answer) before getting a result.

But as soon as I did step 1 (serifs), the "Popular Matches" sidebar showed Cooper Black second from top! :)

It is the single best demonstration of the damage cocaine does to people. Before there was "this is your brain on drugs", there was the Star Wars Holiday Special.

Watch it with your children so that they think "Holy crap, if this is what people come up with on coke, I never want to even try the stuff!"

We need to find a way to fund the cost of implementing this. Perhaps a series of NFTs?

PS Just recognized Pervez Musharraf, Pres of Pakistan. 3rd row from top, left of centre, glasses and mustache.

Thought I'd try to see how many I remembered.

  1. Is that Aleksandr Lukashenko, Pres. of Belarus?
  2. Abdullah II, King of Jordan
  3. Looks familiar... but also looks like a mugshot :D
  4. Tony Blair, PM of Britain
  5. Jacques Chirac, Pres. of France
  6. Bill Clinton, Pres. of the US
  7. Kofi Annan, Sec Gen of the UN
  8. Jiang Zemin, Pres. of PRC
  9. Vladmir Putin, Pres of Russian Federation
  10. Can't remember but I'll guess the Pres. of Indonesia.
  11. Fidel Castro, Pres. of Cuba
  12. Gerhard Schröder, Chancellor of the Fed. Rep. of Germany
  13. Edvard Shevardnadze, Pres. of Georgia
  14. Jean Chrétien, PM of Canada
  15. Vaclav Havel, Pres. of the Cezch Rep.
  16. Omar Bashir, Pres of Sudan?
  17. Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian Authority

  20. I know this guy (with the mustache) but I just can't remember. Pres of Argentina?

  22. Another one whose face I recognize but can't quite remember. I was thinking Mahmud Abbas, but two Palestinians in the same shot? Can't be right.
  23. Réné Préval, Pres of Haiti. Embarrassing I only got him on a 2nd/3rd look, because I actually met him in 2001.
  24. Hugo Chávez, Pres of Venezuela

OMG, I just saw the comments! Sorry to hear you've had to change accounts/instances (I'm still pretty new to the fediverse so not sure how it all works).

Will you be creating a new c/Anniversaries?

EDIT: I think I've found it:
