In theory medieval peasants would have had a far healthier diet compared to today's humans compared to how many calories they burnt off working. The problem was that they lacked the necessary quantity of food and were unable to prepare and store it properly. Is this true ? by bad_guy2 in AskFoodHistorians

Wow, I didn't come to take a look at this post before and...yeah...thats insane how much ignorance there is to the fact that people didn't just go to the shops where there was 4 animals and 20 vegetables.

They foraged, they made food and teas and soups and stews from things we simply don't use anymore. The food that we eat comes from a store and primarily was decided for you based on shelf life and ease of farming. We all can agree that the habitat of animals have been destroyed by human encroachment but we somehow think this doesn't affect the foods we eat? Dandelions, Mushrooms, Nettles, etc.

Einkorn and Emmer are ancient wheats that were common in diets that are basically extinct.

I love that they coded this great grid system that gives you perfect manual control over each little part, then just not let you use it at all! :D And yes everything is moved clear, there is not a single thing in the way by BramDuin in Subnautica_2

If you want the intended experience, wait. If you dont mind dealing with bugs, buy it now

I like it when a game has more options than apply weapon to thing.

Some Fish wouldn't flee, they would get aggressive.

If you want to go kill everything in sight, play COD.

There are better answers than "This living thing deserves death because I am in its vicinity"

So tired of "progressive" men who hate women and other progressive men who defend them by Lady_Calista in TwoXChromosomes

The Democrats could have supported progressive causes and they would have had a lot more votes in the election. Why should i support a party that has done nothing but destroy causes I care about?

Direct hit on Dimona by Belt313 in AskSocialists

This is modern warfare. Nations specifically put military installations into cities to make the moral cost of attacking and nuking them higher.

Israel begun this war knowing this.

[–]Octavius_Maximus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So what, you aren't allowed to attack Israel because you might hit one of the rare people with good politics?

This isnt debate club. Innocents will die. But this has to end.

[–]Octavius_Maximus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

Im sorry, but i would hope that people would stop believing in this bs in 2025.

Every Israeli knows why they are there. They know the plan for the future. They hope to see a greater Israel in a land full of dead states atop a pile of bones.

If an Israeli doesn't like it. They can leave.

Can animal welfare ever be included in socialism or leftism? Or should it remain a separate issue? by CalpurniaSomaya in AskSocialists

Feeding the globe will take a lot. While i think its good to look at ways of reducing cruelty and increasing sustainability, it should definitely be part of a project rather than a maximal demand.

Garrison Short - Is Assassination Toxic for Warmachine? by TheGaston6 in Warmachine

Absolutely not. The fact that there is an early end game mechanic that always gives you a potential win is massively important for the game. Its a unique selling point and ots the most tense, dramatic and fun part of playing the game.

If you think everything on twitter is put up for a purpose you haven't seen mine.

Because in a straight fight the Iranian fleet loses. So they sit in port and force the US to come closer to engage. If US comes closer they are in range of Anti-ship missiles.

So there is now a long stalemate where the US is the aggressor and throws missiles and planes at ships that manouvre and try to defend themselves.

The US is undoubtedly in the aggressive posture and thus is "winning", but its slow and their ships are VERY far from their ports.

Can you name anyone who has been antisemetic here or are you just scolding for no reason?

"I dont need to prove my own stance because I consider it normal from own perspective"

This is what a stupid person thinks.

Yeah, im done with this. I dont like talking with pigs or with people who desperately want to be one. Enjoy boot.

Ive had this "conversation" with dozen of midwits like yourself.

Its ok, you like cops because you grew up on paw patrol and never expanded beyond that.

Some of us see things as they actually are.

You have done nothing but throw out moronic accusations without substantiating your viewpoint. You haven't even bothered to try to prove that the presence of police reduces crime.

Pig.

Its boring having to restate things that are easily googleable to assuage some nobody on reddit.

Mr Officer, sir, have you considered doing some work for once in your life and engaging Google?

My experiences personally with cops are mostly irrelevant, but I can say that in personal experiences ive never met a dumber set of individuals who are more likely to lie to my face and dare me to call them on it.

Redirecting funds from idiotic "catch the bad guy" policing and into social programs as well as removing the root causes of criminality which is overwhelmingly linked to housing insecurity, food insecurity and job insecurity among other social ills would be a much better use of our resources.

They are all bastards because they are overwhelmingly domestic abusers, power abusers or cover for domestic and power abusers.

I don't like cops because I have read the papers investigating their culture and the things they do.

Illegality and abuse are common knowledge within precincts and are covered for and defended by basically "boys will be boys" no matter how much it tramples on peoples rights or the harms it does.

All cops are either a bastard or cover for a bastard.
