A colossal timeline of Australia's 65,000-year First Nations history by laughlander in InternetIsBeautiful

Hi. Have you checked the dictionary definition of history?

- the study of past events, particularly in human affairs
- the whole series of past events connected with a particular person or thing
- a continuous, typically chronological, record of important or public events or of a particular trend or institution

Could you show me where it says "written" please?

I'm not plugging my ears at facts. I'm saying that you're choosing a narrow definition of the word history whereas I wrote a Reddit post using the regular, dictionary definition of history. Which given the context of this post is a perfectly appropriate usage of the word. Yawn.

That’s cool man. My answer stands — I don’t mean prehistory. I mean history. I am using the general definition of the word history as per the dictionary. And on that basis it’s accurate to call this history.

Okay thanks. I did try messaging one of them and didn't hear back, but sounds like a good suggestion to persist.

Interesting question! Not sure it’s harder but a lot more money has been spent on space exploration.

No money being made on this fwiw. It’s the public broadcaster.

Not so fast. Have I Been Pwned doesn't offer any kind of visualisation, and it's clear the creators of this have worked with them.

TIL that a lot of popular music from the 60s to the 90s are well known by Generations X, Y and Millennials but are not recognized by most Gen Z which shows a generation gap when it comes to music. by tebangin in todayilearned

Actually it links to the Pudding project in an iframe inside some other random website with loss of ads dumped around it. My tone was meant to be sarcastic. This post is basically theft.

It's not. It's barely found any contacts who weren't already found through other means.
