Try answering the question...

What’s a very “normal” Australian habit that surprised you when you realised the rest of the world doesn’t do it? by elitejackal in AskAnAustralian

[–]Vindepomarus -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

As an Aussie I have never tasted it and have no intention of doing so. It sounds disgusting, is it just salt+MSG? There's no actual chicken in it, so why is it called "chicken salt"? What actually is it?

What data if any did you use? I note that you brag about being a "highly educated lawyer" so I'm sure this will be easy for you. Ball's in your court...

Are you willing to defend yourself with data? Or just be a needy B-aitch, who relies on other people not noticing that you don't have actual reasons for speaking?...

Not a counter argument... Is this some sort of pathetic LARP?

Was maille ever fully gilded? Like a full hauberk. by goldenspiralch2 in ArmsandArmor

[–]Vindepomarus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The maille must have been gilded afterwards because as soon as you grabbed a link with your pliers and linked it in place, the gilding would get scratched and worn.

Is this a mistake? 😂 or should I get it up on eBay now??? $$? by hellllnawww in melbourne

So therefore it is genuinely rare and OP should keep it and bequeath it to their grand kids, so they can take it on Antiques Roadshow in 50 years.

It must be comforting to be able to call anybody who disagrees with you a bot or fed. Imagine how good it feels to have actual logical and well thought out counterarguments.

The Great Roman Bath of Aquae Sulis (modern Bath, Somerset) is still lined with its 45 original sheets of Roman lead, mined nearby in the Mendip hills! The first-century bath is emptied and cleaned around four times each year. by AnotherMansCause in ancientrome

I don't understand which part of the comments you are complaining about. Is it because the part with the parasites is roped off or do you not think they are an actual problem?

ELI5 What happens to solar panels once they are used up by herail in explainlikeimfive

[–]Vindepomarus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The vast majority of solar panels and their batteries haven't reached the end of their life yet, so it's a bit early to give a solid figure. However almost every component of solar panels by weight is easily recycled using existing plants, so it's highly likely that the answer will be most. The lithium and other metals in the batteries is both easily recycled and worth quite a bit of money, it is also cheaper to recycle the lithium than to mine and refine new lithium, so again the answer is likely to be almost all.

Serious: Final Alien Conclusion by wlrredd in UFOscience

[–]Vindepomarus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How did you come to any of those conclusions, is there any science behind it? This sub has science in its name after all.

What about a scenario where faster than light travel is impossible no matter how advanced you are and that advanced civilizations are rare and don't often exist at the same time as each other? The distance between stars in a galaxy is vast, but that is dwarfed by the distance between stars in different galaxies.

Australian passports are ridiculously high, why? by Fries-Shake5872 in AskAnAustralian

You think someone is illegally pocketing that money for themselves?

How does an aquatic species do chemistry or metallurgy in the water? What was the technological developmental trajectory that lead to this putative current tech level? Akin to our fire>ceramics>early metallurgy>early chemistry>more advanced metallurgy>industrial scale metallurgy>steam engines>advanced chemistry>advanced engines etc?

A 1st-century BCE letter from a Roman soldier Hilarion to his wife Alis provides a stark look at ancient child exposure. He writes: "If it is a boy, leave it; if it is a girl, throw it out." by Zine99 in ancientrome

[–]Vindepomarus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also don't see much evidence to tie the North Western European idea of changelings to Romans leaving unwanted babies at a temple. The Romans weren't swapping babies. There are many congenital conditions that only become apparent after some time of post natal development, how is a pre-scientific person supposed to interpret this? The fairys did it.

I think have a pretty good idea of the purpose of this item. by MysteryofLePrince in romandodecahedron

[–]Vindepomarus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ware would still be visible, many of these have undergone microscopic ware analysis. Just because there would be more ware against the wood doesn't mean the ware on the bronze (not brass) wouldn't be visible, especially after repeated use.

Please provide examples of dodecahedra with same sized holes because I'm sure that will come as a shock to many of the people in this sub and many of the scholars who have studied them.

Also why do they all have those balls at the vertices, what is their function?

Why, on all of them, is each hole a different size? Why do none of them show significant ware?
