Herodotus is not well regarded due to.. well constantly lying. His accounts are basically classical tabloid news.

That "ancient Roman style" was actually the Carthaginian system adopted from the Phoenicians.

For me it was 1) gruesome abortions conducted in some western country 2) Denmark a man (immigrant?) was immolated outside his home by a crowd. They are shouting 3) man is hacked by…

That outlet is a US psyop.

That was a good little read and mirrors my sentiments about media consumption exactly. People who have a specialized knowledge about a subject will often find themselves reading fa…

He is correct though. If you disagree, can you point me to information on what developments the Ottomans were responsible for in the Middle East and North Africa? For example, is t…

This is an extremely reductive and anti-Muslim revision of history. Spread by hate groups and anti-Muslim ideologue types. Explanation for the current state of affairs is a vastly …

That was needlessly incredulous. Keeping ourselves alive is definitely our most important priority.

That's because forensics has a sordid history of being overvalued in trial cases because of magic thinking like "it's science it must be the truth". When in reality a lot of it is …

I used to be a free speech absolutist, but after seeing just how a massive number of people can be convinced of some seriously dangerous but factually incorrect political ideas off…

Professional experience? Inventing new speak for anecdotes on the fly, bravo.

Help undermine security measures taken against seditionists in another country. You don't have to worry about any of the consequences of civil strife because you don't live there. …

That is really creepy. I really hate when you want to maintain privacy or discretion and vendors/people start asking questions like the FBI. Christ people, get a grip and respect p…

This is terrible advice. The advice presupposes that indignant people are reasonable, fair, forgiving (and frankly, gullible). If you bend over to a mob that is out to get you, the…

>There is not a single democratic government in the ME sans Israel. This is a tiring propaganda point and no one buys it anymore.

You presented your thing very very well. I expected to to just take a glance at this, as I'm not interested in game engines, but ended up reading the whole thing. Very well done!

Not interested in a game engine but the way the site presents this with clear articulable points of what to expect what it does.. I wish everyone would present their stuff like thi…

It's evident by your opening that you have a bone to pick with religion, so I'll keep this short. 3D printing masks for an emergency and other one offs don't come close to the amou…

Even renewables need tons of fossil to lubricate moving parts. Generators in a turbine alone is a massive oil guzzler. The world will always need oil until a synthetic lubricant th…

>applies only to older Mac notebooks from like 2008 Point being that the indicator light can be hacked and isn't too be blindly trusted.

I'm Algerian so your tinfoil hat must be malfunctioning.

This is the reason we need a less globalized world where dangerous regimes like the United States can't claim most of the world's commerce through imperialism then turn around and …
