@OgdenSplendid @NolanAnalyst @Glinner Most people who survived the first five years of life would probably live into their 50s or 60s. Infant mortality was what dragged the average down.

Elliot Page is expected to play Elpenor, the youngest crew member on Odysseus’ ship in THE ODYSSEY, not Achilles.

@LAbutyeah @NolanAnalyst Achilles plays a minor role in the Odyssey. The problem is Helen and Athena as blacks.

@UnsolicitedHQ @HumansForTheWin For sure. Whether you and I agree on politics or not, we at least have the common decency to not slodge insults at each other over it.

@Mac_Paul0 @Math_files Nope. That's if it multiplies by 1.5. Multiplying by 0.5 is the same as dividing by 2.

@UnsolicitedHQ @HumansForTheWin I blocked him after that. Tired of being called names just for having an opinion. I get enough of that at work.

That's because you dumb fucks think its ok to just usher in a surveillance state. NONE of those actual inventions are problematic because they actually offer a value proposition. There is no value prop for data centers other than mass surveillance, more fake porn, and joblessness. GFY

@StevenRWilson72 @grok @lporiginalg @mrwtffacts You're not getting my point. The term 'barbarian' literally applied to any culture that did not speak Greek, and later on Latin. Therefore we are all barbarians. Except the Greeks.

No one speaks Latin and the Ancient Egyptians ran a continuous civilization far longer than Greeks did and build dramatically more impressive monuments—it is not even close China build the wall, also far more impressive than anything built by Greeks Roman Empire was indeed impressive but not necessarily the most impressive Empire America has done way more impressive things than Rome or Greeks combined

In 1995, 15-year-old Nicole van den Hurk was raped & murdered on her way to school in the Netherlands. The case went cold for 16 years. Then, suddenly, her stepbrother Andy confessed on Facebook: “I killed my little sister” Police arrested him… but all was not as it seemed. It was, in fact, a deliberate false confession. Andy’s plan? Force them to exhume Nicole’s body for modern DNA testing. The insane gamble worked. In 2014, the real killer, a man with prior rape convictions, was caught & sentenced to 12 years.

If you start counting from 1 and say one number every second, it would take you about 30 years to reach 1 billion (1,000,000,000). Long ago, the word billion meant a million million (that is, 1,000,000,000,000 or 12 zeros). This was the meaning used in countries like England and Germany. The word comes from “bi”, meaning two, because it was thought of as two “millions” written together: 1,000,000 1,000,000 making 1,000,000,000,000 (12 zeros). Later, Americans started using the word billion for a smaller number: 1,000,000,000 (9 zeros). Today, this 9-zero meaning is used almost everywhere in the world, especially in science and mathematics. The word billion itself is not very old. It became common only after the 1500s, and one early American use was recorded in 1729.

@HumansForTheWin @UnsolicitedHQ I'm not "anti-war virtue signalling". I'm simply saying that moving to a post-scarcity society will solve some of the problems that lead to large-scale conflicts.

@HumansForTheWin @UnsolicitedHQ Why are you so rude? I did nothing to you. And I'm not a 'leftist'. Conventional politics is all nonsense.

@AzureInkScribe @UnsolicitedHQ So you swung by to solve nothing. Leftists are depraved virtue signaling brats. Why is China about to take Taiwan? Why is Russia in Ukraine? Why does Iran fun Hezbollah? They need food? Grow up. Or don’t worry about the world.
