"Supervillain has a non-aggression pact with a country with winters hard as fuck and then decides to invade the frozen-balls-country in winter anyway"

Do you screenwriters want us to believe this shit? Are you even trying?

Characters in letterkenny saying "To be fair" they invaded in June hoping to get it done before the winter. It's just that the Russian weather doesn't fuck around. (also that the dumbfuck nazi leadership didn't consider halting the advance and reinforcing supply lines when the going got tough)

He did not invent the modern computer but contributed significantly to the modern theory of computation. There is no single person who invented the computer, it was a collective effort over decades, if not centuries, ref. Leibniz, Lovelace, Bool, von Neumann, Weizenbaum, and many more.

He invented the Turing machine, the modern computer was developed through the combined effort of lots of brilliant minds.

And that’s even before you get to someone called Donald Fart attempting a coup against the US Government.

Didn't he (accidentally) kill himself?

Edit:

Turing died on 7 June 1954, 16 days before his 42nd birthday, from cyanide poisoning. An inquest determined his death as a suicide, but it has been noted that the known evidence is also consistent with accidental poisoning.
