The Geek's Raven
[An excerpt, with thanks to Marcus Bales]

Once upon a midnight dreary,
fingers cramped and vision bleary,
System manuals piled high and wasted paper on the floor,
Longing for the warmth of bedsheets,
Still I sat there, doing spreadsheets:
Having reached the bottom line,
I took a floppy from the drawer.
Typing with a steady hand, I then invoked the SAVE command
But got instead a reprimand: it read "Abort, Retry, Ignore".

What would be the fate of the war and Germany if Hitler's assassination was successful in 1944?

t was, actually, partially successful. Hitler was, actually, badly injured, much more badly than was admitted at the time. His left arm was rendered useless, he permanently lost his hearing in one ear, and his health was permanently shattered. True, he was still alive, and could still function to some extent. However, if the plotters had been more effective and less amateurish, they could probably have made the case that Hitler could no longer function, and was as good as dead. So, actually, it might not have mattered much at all if Hitler had actually been killed. The die was cast, and the war would likely have played out pretty much as it did. https://www.quora.com/What-would-be-the-fate-of-the-war-and-Germany-if-Hitlers-assassination-was-successful-in-1944
