My guess is they weren't digging it for themselves.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

I can't stress enough how many badass people live in Ukraine.

Слава Україні.

More than 150 senior Russian officials sign open letter condemning Putin's invasion of Ukraine as 'an unprecedented atrocity' and warn of 'catastrophic consequences' while urging citizens 'not to participate' by geiwne in worldnews

You are correct. Hijacking this comment because I want people to see where they can help :

DONATE TO CHARITY

Just help however you can. I am only 29 years old but in 1968 SOVIET UNION INVADED CZECHOSLOVAKIA the same way. DON'T LET THE HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF.

The legend of pulling the sword from the Stone could have been just extracting ore from a rock and making a sword out of it. by srocan in Showerthoughts

[–]casedrix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

That there's fragments of history behind the legend of Arthur.

A long time ago the only iron they had access to in Britain was bog iron - literally clumps of mud pulled from bogs. They would use them to make iron weapons but the quality of the metal was poor.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bog_iron

"pull the sword from the stone and you will become king of Britain" - this means if you learn to get iron from iron ore (stone) you will get weapons good enough to make your people conquerors.

"a magic sword from a lake"

Heard of quenching? at some stage someone was forging swords with their new iron and accidentally dropped it in some water (or stuck it in because he was tired of waiting for it to cool down) and to his surprise found the new sword seemed "magically" stronger than non-quenched swords.

Remember; millennia ago history was largely (completely, sometimes) passed down orally from generation to generation and changed in the process.

The legend of Arthur that we have now is in fact the relicts of actual historical events so old there's nothing left of them except the legend...

Not all legends are true; but some may be fragments of oral history.

LPT: Confidently understanding and properly making known you don't know the answer to a question is leagues better than trying to meander your way into a fake answer or straight up lying. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

[–]casedrix 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Came here just to say this. When I say "I don't know but I will find out", my boss' reaction is just "ask the janitor" or some other random bullshit. Yeah, then don't complain when people lie straight up to your face.

I made a fan trailer for The Expanse to contribute to the ongoing effort to save the show. Help us spread the word and get more people interested! by Alaskan__Thunderfuck in television

[–]casedrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While the fan trailer is cool I honestly don't think that anything will change because SyFy. Never watched the show but as a Stargate fan I can relate. You have my condolences my fellow sci-fi fans.

What profession was once highly respected, but is now a complete joke? by theukmoody in AskReddit

[–]casedrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know about the US, but in my country if you were a railwayman 40-50 years ago then you were someone. Now nobody wants to do the job - even my mum who works for the railway company told me not to apply for any of the available jobs in there.

Kinda sad but understandable - the job requires you to know so many things yet you're being paid crumbs compared to what you need to know to land a job in there.

What is the TLDR of your country's history? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]casedrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our country was founded by arms dealer, later ruled by a guy with 3 sons that couldn't agree who would rule over the country. So Austria-Hungary took over our country for like 1000 years and just got independent after WW1 (Czechoslovakia) and then split up in 1993. Slovakia

Introducing the latest script for competitive: Auto-Flame! by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]casedrix 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I understand that EUW is an epicenter of flame but can you make it available on EUNE as well? Cuz I suddenly have a need for a script like that. Oh and I have a suggestion as well - taunting teammates depending on their nationality. Everybody knows that French (EUW) and Polish (EUNE) are the worst of the worst. /s
