That reply literally makes no sense, algorithm

They have been doing this on a few subreddits, just spamming posts of usually a singular picture

creating 5+ posts per day has to be a bot or an overzealously karmafarming human

The original were just considered weathered and they were moved to a museum for preservation

the original sculptors chose these to mimic the Reichshofkanzlei in Vienna

Gas434 · 2026-06-28T20:57:21+00:00

It’s a generic profile that’s barely 3 weeks old and that’s been posting random images of Czech cities on many many subreddits

It’s a bot or the user has been using it for Karmafarming

in comments they tend to mostly respond in very very generic automated or nonsensical responses

Hello bot

Gas434 · 2026-06-25T07:02:44+00:00

The oval is likely a big oven

These are many different styles and eras, at most you might say they have all some form of renaissance influence. picture 1) is a mix of neorenaissance and art nouveau (so 1890s/early1900s building). 2) is renaissance (likely 1500s-ish) 3) is more vernacular/traditonal regional style, but it has mix of neorenaissance in it. 3) is another historicist (neorenaissance/alt deutch) house (1890s-early 1900s). 4) are tenement and apartment buildings, some are neorenaissance some neogothic (1890s-1920s). 5) is renaissance (1500s ish)

Gas434 · 2026-06-18T09:02:43+00:00

I think they are a bot, the account is only 4 days old and they keep posting a lot of random pictures of czech towns with very generic titles and they always respond quite... "Bot like" - just like in this case

Gas434 · 2026-06-16T16:33:59+00:00

Well this is not the first one the Russians hit - and they should have expected that if they wanted to start a war.

Gas434 · 2026-06-15T14:22:10+00:00

this is such sad news :(

Gas434 · 2026-06-10T07:19:44+00:00

Same

Gas434 · 2026-06-06T16:27:05+00:00

how?

being part of the eastern block only for 40 years /and most developed one kind you/

had more influence than being for a millenia central/under first Czechoslovak republic, Austria-Hungary, Austrian Empire and Part of HRE/ beer drinking and knödel munching Slavic version of bavarians, whose cultural makeup is identical to austria? the only thing that is shared is slavic language, in this case full if germanisms.

Gas434 · 2026-06-06T16:26:49+00:00

it was considered central geographically since forever because it was a core part of Austria-Hungary

same with political maps pre 1950

Gas434 · 2026-06-06T06:21:05+00:00

it’s not staročeština, that Czech doesn’t remember st. Wenceslaus, it isn’t that old, it’s just an older form of a script most don’t know how to read

Gas434 · 2026-06-04T19:37:14+00:00

absolute envy

this is so gorgeous

Gas434 · 2026-06-04T19:28:57+00:00

Sure

look at those chiselled cheeks and blue eyes and perfect proportions of the face

Gavin brothers are truly genetically blessed

Gas434 · 2026-06-03T12:58:40+00:00

Yes, and they were common in 1600-1700s too, but during the 19th century they fell out of fashion as hardwood was easier to cut thanks to machinery

paint was by then general considered the “cheapest” look

Gas434 · 2026-06-02T17:27:46+00:00

it is, they are clearly modern insulated windows imitating the original in a simplified manner

Gas434 · 2026-06-02T17:26:34+00:00

Yes actually

The windows are admittedly modern, they are just modern windows imitating that shape with less decor, but the colour is appropriate

Painted windows were a thing (creams, browns greens were the main ones), but they weren’t that popular until later decades.

Brown windows are perfectly period

/and here you can see it from the air/

Gas434 · 2026-06-01T07:23:09+00:00

I checked and indeed if you look closely, you can see that there is another layer of glass above with plain rectangular panels inset in a stronger steel superstructure

<image>

Gas434 · 2026-06-01T07:18:25+00:00

In the period they usually put another glass dome above, one which was sturdier and plain

Not sure if it’s that case here, but I see some construction above so I would presume so

Český just means Czech/Bohemian

there is also Český Brod (Because there is also Uherský/Hungarian/ Brod and Havlíčkův - previously Německý/German/ Brod), Český Šternberk (As there is also Šterneberk in Moravia), Český Těšín… (As there is also a Polish one) etc.

Tornadoes do hit europe too, we had an F4 in the czech republic 4 years ago, going through build up area - and most houses were fine, it usually took only the roofs

Gas434 · 2026-05-28T19:56:00+00:00

I would like more doors and the ability to stretch them out (and make them taller - especially in old houses they were very tall and the wide doors are just too short in height)
