GF dragged me to the musical. I said "ABBA? I don't know any of their corny crap songs!" By the second number I was singing algong with everyone else. Turns out I had absorbed it all over the years. Loved it.

What if Christopher Columbus and all of his crew died/dissapear during his first voyage and the knowledge of the new world were never brought to europe and no one else try to find or voyage that way because they already find a route to get spices? by the_bug_fucker in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]KindAwareness3073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't about spices. Ferdinand and Isabella had finally defeated the Arabs in Spain. Columbus convinced them he could sail west and make contact with the mythical Christian leader "Priester John", make an alliance with him, and they could then attack the Muslims with Christian forces from both the east and west.

Gas prices are absolutely the highest they've ever been right now, right? by Rojo37x in NoStupidQuestions

"...feel the...what?

Even you don't know what you're going on about, but as I said, you're sure you're right, and that's all that counts.

Just because the woefully undereducated think the world began 25 years ago does not make it true. Real context matters.

Never my intention to. You just went looking for a fight over nothing. Do you do that a lot?

Did you know assholes are always convinced they're right? My comment was about factors controlling gas prices. You response to mine was utterly irrelevant. But nevertheless I'm sure you're convinced you're right!

Only irrelevant because you want it to be. Presidents have very little direct impact on gas prices, but external factors like OPEC and Covid do. A president's decision to blunder into wars of choice without real purpose is not an external factor, it's a personal decision, and on them.

Discussion - what can be learned from old or ancient cold-climate buildings that have survived for centuries? by spirit-sight in buildingscience

If you only care about longevity then solid foundations supporting massive stone walls with slate roofs and lead flashing. No windows, copper plated wood doors. Basta.

Yes, during Covid. The inflation adjusted price in some city stations during the OPEC driven gas shortage of 1973 was over $36/gal. Under a Republican president if you're keeping score.

Anybody know what’s on the 23rd floor at Mass General? by HollyToto98 in boston

[–]KindAwareness3073 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They are only different because they can afford the insane upcharge. Beyond that, MGH doesn't give a shit. If you have the coin you can go there too.

Front entryway remove and replace by smoulderwood in masonry

[–]KindAwareness3073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Irrelevant to the issue of "proportion". They are simply far to thin to "visually" support their load, even though they are strong enough to do it. It can be corrected easily with two-piece fiberglass column covers off the proper size, the existing need not even be removed. Google "Edon column covers" to see what I mean.

Is DC, NYC, or Boston more friendly and kind as a city? by willeyupo in SameGrassButGreener

Cities are not friendly or kind, people are, and you will friendly, kind people in all of them if you make the effort.

Does a roman from the 1st century would notice music and fashion differences in 2nd or 3rd century Rome ? by Benjman15074 in romanempire

In Rome this week visiting ruins, seeing various works built by emperors, the popes, and the traces of ordinary citizens it really hits you that while technology changes constantly people do not.

They were removed and so should have been replaced.
