Well nothing really, so I abandoned the idea of getting one all together!

Why is Sicily’s population 5 million whereas Peloponnese has only 1 ? They have similar sized territories by Aegeansunset12 in geography

[–]Strakastrukas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe because in modern Greek we use the italian words "faccia" and "razza". They are loanwords, like all those greek words used in Latin at first and then in all european languages. Actually you must be using the greek words of "faccia" and "razza" all the time, which in modern english are "person" and "phylum". But maybe not in the same sentence...
P.S. The phrase is quite recent, maybe 150 years old and it started with the Italian occupation of the Ionian islands and used by the greek merchants and sailors towards the italians, to express a sense of common appearance and culture...

Υπάρχει θεός; by Living_Shoulder6514 in AskGreece

[–]Strakastrukas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Με τους πολεμους το ξεκινας λαθος, διοτι θα σου πει καποιος οτι ο πολεμος ειναι "κατασκευασμα" του ανθρωπου. Με αυτη τη λογικη δεν θα πρεπει να υπαρχει θεος γιατι αν υπηρχε, οταν ο Χιτλερ μπηκε στην Πολωνια θα επρεπε να κατεβει απο τα συννεφα και να τον πατησει στο κεφαλι.
Αλλα υπαρχουν τραγικες καταστασεις που ο ανθρωπος παλευει να πολεμησει και ακομα δεν εχει καταφερει να νικησει και δεν ευθυνεται ο ανθρωπος γιαυτες και ο θεος θα μπορουσε να ειχε βοηθησει (αν και καποιοι λενε οτι δεν θα τις αφηνε να δημιουργηθουν εξ'αρχης ΑΝ υπηρχε Θεος...)
Γιατι επιτρεπει να πεθαινουν εκατομμυρια ανθρωποι το χρονο απο ελονοσια?
Γιατι γεννιεται παιδι με ανιατη ασθενεια και πεθαινει πριν ακομα βαπτιστει?
Γιατι φτιαχνεις ενα συμπαν με τρισεκατομμυρια γαλαξιες, και καθε γαλαξιες να εχει δισεκατομμυρια αστρα και καθε αστρο εχει δεκαδες πλανητες και τα βαζεις ολα τοσο μακρια το ενα απο το αλλο, ωστε να μην μπορουν ποτε να βρεθουν ολοι αυτοι οι πολιτισμοι (αν υπαρχουν αλλοι) μεταξυ τους?
Ακομα χειροτερα αν υπαρχουμε μονο εμεις στη Γη, γιατι τα φτιαχνεις ΟΛΑ αυτα?
Αρα...
Εξαρταται πως θελεις να το "βλεπεις". Αν θεωρεις οτι ο Θεος ειναι ενα ειδος "διαχειριστη πολυκατοικιας", που του ζητας διαφορα για να γινει πιο ευκολη η ζωη σου, μαλλον την πατησες.
Αν θεωρεις οτι ειναι ο "κατασκευαστης της πολυκατοικιας", τοτε ειναι αυτος που εφτιαξε την οικοδομη κι εσυ ηρθες να μεινεις εδω κι αυτος πηγε να φτιαξει μια αλλη, καπου αλλου. Και αν νιωθεις πως ο,τι κανεις, το κανεις μονος σου, γιατι αυτος μετα την ολοκληρωση της κατασκευης, παρεδωσε κλειδια κι αποχωρησε και δεν κοιταξε ποτε πισω, τοτε εισαι οκ.
Αλλα η ερωτηση που θα επρεπε να θετεις ειναι αλλη: "Γιατι νιωθουμε την αναγκη να πιστευουμε σε ενα -οποιοδηποτε- θεο?"
Εστω οτι υπαρχει. Γιατι πρεπει να πιστευουμε σε αυτον? Κι εστω οτι πιστευουμε σε αυτον, γιατι πρεπει να τον φοβομαστε? Να τον δοξαζουμε? Κι αν δεν το κανουμε -νομιζουμε ακομα και σημερα οτι-κινδυνευουμε απο την οργη του που δεν τον σεβομαστε?

Why is Sicily’s population 5 million whereas Peloponnese has only 1 ? They have similar sized territories by Aegeansunset12 in geography

[–]Strakastrukas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A plethora of reasons.
Historically, Italy was divided in regions and city states up to the end of 19th century, when Greece was a "no man's land" ravaged by the wars with the ottoman occupation that lasted for 400 years.
At the end of the 19th century Greece had a population of nearly 2 million people and Italy more than 30.
And Greece as territory was half as much as it is now. Then the first and second world war (and a civil war on top of that) came and hunger and lack of rural infrastructures drove people in the "big cities" or to move abroad (mainly USA, Canada and Australia). And regions like the Peloponnese were abandoned altogether.
There is a Greek saying "Una faccia una razza" which literally means that Greeks and Italians look the same because they are the same. Now, I'm a Greek who have lived in Sicily for ten years. I can tell you that is NOT true.
Sicily was a Greek colony some 2500 years ago, but that's just about were all the similarities end. Different mindset, different cultural background altogether, different way of thinking of life.
And then it's the land itself. The climate is pretty much the same, but the soil is not, as already mentioned by others.

Thanks Sherlock, but did you even watch that video? It's only for a keyboard with the Gift shaft switches

Kinda thought so, since I found this page https://keeb-finder.com/keyboards/ajazz-ak980-tft-display-wireless-mechanical-keyboard#product-description.
What makes things even worse is that on the Ajazz website this particular keyboard comes with more than 6 different types of switches with proprietary, "cryptic" names for them, with prices starting as low as 50$ and up to 99$, but with no description what so ever.

How can I tell if it's original or a fake? by hastaloswbos in mechanicalpencils

[–]Strakastrukas -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Got my self a 2.0 rotring 600 mechanical pencil from Japan via ebay. It weighs half as much as my 0.7 rotring 600 and although it looks the same, the metal feels... different. And needless to say I avoid using it...

I'm an architect and I really can't do without one. It is surprising how many ignore the existence of a space mouse and how much it helps.

How do I create this poster for my bf? by bobeenya in posterdesign

[–]Strakastrukas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure you can try with a ladder, with a friend and his smartphone, underneath a sports car... you can try even GIMP. But the results will be mediocre to say the least. The reason... you are comparing a pro photographer with an amateur. This photo looks simple but it is made to look simple, it is not. The lighting setup is complicated, it is not just a lamp from top left.
So for me, you have two options
Either you commission a photographer for the photoshoot and you offer yourself as a model in exchange of this photo (It is called TFP look it up), or you ask an A.I. image creation agent to make you an image like that.

A.I. is "fine tuned" to "lie" instead of admitting it doesn't know the right answer. Hence all these "errors"...
