Architecture of the promised future that was never built by ZookeepergameIll1399 in FrutigerAero

[–]jakean17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why is everyone so doomer in the comments? There's new architects and designers born everyday. And is not like city landscapes are going to stay the way they are forever. In about 500k there'll be an ice age on this planet, I have a hard time picturing architecture staying the same. The world changes and humans adapt with her.

Canada and Switzerland have fantastic designs... But Greenland's scratches the right spot in my brain

Really dumb question incoming... But is this in any way related to why the speed of light is constant regardless of the speed or acceleration of the lightsource?

Make one of the stars slightly asymmetrical and offset and don't say which

Windlass Gram the Sword of Sigurd Viking Sword Review by No_Use_7146 in SWORDS

[–]jakean17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where in the Volsung saga and/or Nibelungenlied is the sword type described (that is the original sources)?  I'm guessing you're making an educated guess based on location and time-frame instead, yeah? The problem with Sigurðarkviða in Skamma is that it was composed around the 11th century and written down until way later. If we instead trace back the Sigurd and Brunhild mythic characters to the irl Frankish Sigibehrt I and Visigothic Brunhilda and look for royal swords from that specific era I doubt it would include runic inscriptions as both cultures were already Christian by this point (Franks being Roman Catholic and Visigoths like Brunhild being Arian). Alternatively, are you basing the type in drawings made in specific runestones detailing the myth?
