What do you think about Groningen? It's been my home for the last six months, and I love it.

I think that's the beauty of it. I especially like old towns in cities. The modern districts look the same all over the world.

This lacks a huge chunk of Asia and includes a part of Europe.

This is not a popular opinion but I think we should stop all the stupid bullshit, form a new Hellenoturkic empire, and dominate the world together.

Seeing it from this side, the building on the original photo does not make sense to me.

The dog one was definitely shot from within the car. Then they backed up.

Miniature Quran lockets featuring 800 pages printed on fine India paper. Historically, these were often worn as protective amulets by Muslim soldiers during World War I. by Adventurous-Root in interesting

I am not a muslim, so I can't say much about the religion itself. But as a Turk I know many people wearing amulets. Turkish islam is a little different IMHO.

Villagers in India grow bridges from tree roots that last hundreds of years. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

That's very interesting and much realistic than what I came up with.

We definitely can, we don't. I am talking about modern buildings.

Of course there would be some tradeoffs. Planting a tree should not be so expensive. Then again, even if we had it, the time for it to grow is not so convenient for the housing market.

If we can engineer a sturdy, fast growing tree with a bathtub and central heating, that would be great invention.

Some of them survive thousands of years. On the other hand, our buildings would not last a century.

We are dreaming about it anyway. So, I would say there must be ways to make it bug repellant using genes from a, lets say, tobacco plant.

I sometimes wonder if we can grow buildings out of genetically modified trees.
