There's also the term ritardando in music for gradually slowing down, but at least that's typically abbreviated to "rit."

It's just your OpenStreetMap username, doesn't have to a real name. You can set "your name" to be some anonymous gibberish if you'd like

Haven't had any interactions with ST.W personally, but I feel tempted to share the testimony of someone who begs to differ (@Stamets of !tenforward): https://lemmy.zip/post/9940581

Only 6,000 blinks? That's nothing but a watered-down scam-in-a-bottle preying on the naïve drivers trying to buy blinker fluid for their very first time. It has to be good for AT LEAST 10,000 blinks before I'd even consider putting in my car

Fun fact: The "unsinkable" actually came from its sister Olympic, after it came out relatively unscathed from a collision with the Hawke (Wikipedia link)

damage to Olympic and Hawke - Olympic has a hole in the side of its hull, Hawke's bow has been completely mangled and now looks pug-nosed

Fun fact: Between the 3 ships of the class, Olympic was the only that survived to retirement. Britannic was sunk by a mine in WWI after less than a year in service.
