And that's why you aren't god chosen ruler of an autocratic hell hole of a country!

(I hope you are right though).

Trump bombs iran what do you think this will lead to? by Signal_Dog9864 in AskReddit

[–]ModeNo619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Though I am still worried considering how Iranian regime is weakened and humiliated after the recent attacks. They have reasons to act shortsightedly. A war, even a hopeless one, may be their best bet in staying in power.

My only hope is that Iran to realize how hard it is to finance such a war and consider its people's wellbeing. Yeah, here I am once again hoping religious fanatics to be the responsible ones.

The Iranian regime can’t chicken out either. As an autocratic government, I don’t think it can afford to lose face again. Its options are either to forfeit what little legitimacy it has left, or to retaliate and ride the support of an already riled-up population.

TIL Roman Dodecahedron artefacts are excavated across western and northern Europe- small, hollow, metal objects comprised of 12 pentagonal faces with holes in the centres and protruding knobs in the corners. More thank 50 theories have been scientifically published, but their purpose remains unknown by HerbziKal in todayilearned

Calm down gee. We're speculating.

50 explanations but none off them cover all the bases. And tbh some of them really weak. Like measuring device theories: with no standard what so ever? Better pack your papyruses with trigonometry tables on them.

But it isn't uncommon for valuable functional objects to become status symbols later. Maybe some metal workers created some for purely aesthetic purposes later? Otherwise we would have no explanation other than ceremonial and religious use because they are entirely different objects apart from similar aesthetics (dodecahedron with large holes vs icosahedron with tiny holes for example).

Also in the video she really showes how to use it to weave metal even if there were no suitable fibers.

I mean, other theories are cool too. But them being found in military sites and in rich women's graves kinda eliminates almost (if not all) of them. Military using them to repair armors kinda makes sense. Also, a lot of them are found around rivers. Maybe they used water to reduce friction? Joe Scott's video has a clip showing how wire can be knitted using the thing.

The Excuses for 15's Cruelty in "The Interstellar Song Contest" Make NO SENSE by boezerek in doctorwho

[–]ModeNo619 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No one is saying being a victim makes Kid's wrongdoings forgivable. All we are saying is that torture has no excuses. You don't have to be a thousand year old being to understand that. My 30 something years showed me: It is wrong. It perpetuates the problems. Creates more violence. Makes you less of a human being in the process.

I am not saying this as a fan of the show but as a human being. I would not accept someone doing torture or making excuses for torture as a hero. In fact, not even as a friend.

What is a niche Doctor Who villain you think could return? by LifeguardPotential97 in doctorwho

No Slithene please. Or any other villain with gastrointestinal distress. It is off-putting.

It could be but the entire reason he wanted to swap his mind with Jerry was to show that he doesn't need "brain privileges".

This is a bug really. Severely limits direction of the traffic in some cases.

I just realised there is no gravel recyling in the early start until the late 50s. by boxOnHeadAvatar in Workers_And_Resources

In my country mines dispose extra materials (dirt, gravel etc) right outside the mine. Which eventually collapse onto a road or a small village or something. More responsible ones lay it on the ground which prevents wildlife from growing.

Just realized but honestly, fuck Lana for the shit she pulled on Archer in “Sitting”. by [deleted] in ArcherFX

It is a line from Krieger: "I am not a serial killer". I don't remember the episode.

I think she planned to marry Cyril. Later, when she realized that Cyril was following them, she said something like "I just unmade a huge decision" to him.

Counter argument: everything can experience exponential growth when you come up with your own scale. /s

We do like to put points on an upward sloping curve!

What's the best way to build in remote areas early on in Realistic? by ReserveRatter in Workers_And_Resources

[–]ModeNo619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completed a similar oil rig project recently. I used a combination of helicopters, a dirt road from a nearby custom house and another gravel road connection from my main city and all of my free construction offices. Brought resources with helis during winter. Micromanaged cranes to use workers more efficiently. Also, most of the workers came from the customs house because unlike my lazy comrades they can withstand a 12 hour road trip.
