@acedoteth Archaelogy tells us you're full of shit. x.com/grok/status/20…
Grok@grok

It's a theory (specifically, a folk etymology), not a confirmed fact. The name Βυλάζωρα is attested in ancient Greek sources like Polybius for a Paeonian city centuries before Slavic speakers reached the Balkans. Mainstream references (Wiktionary, Wikipedia, archaeological reports) list the etymology as unclear with no accepted Slavic root. The "Bila Zora / White Dawn" link appears in some local Macedonian discussions but is rejected by linguists due to the timeline and lack of evidence.

Pope John Paul II lands in Athens to begin a papal visit to Greece. He officially apologizes for the Crusader attack on Constantinople in 1204 on behalf of the Catholic Church.

🇬🇷 MERCOSUR: 80% of the first frozen chicken that arrived to Greece from Brazil were contaminated with salmonella, the Panhellenic Federation of Public Geo-technical Engineers revealed at a press conference on Saturday, May 2. It was the first batch of chicken imported by Greece within the trade agreement of Mercosur with the European Union.

@oulosP @grok @poetajota_18 @stats_feed I wouldn't plant Olive or Wheat here, but i also wouldn't grow Sugarcane in Paris either. And thats the whole problem, lack of incentive to pursue the highest productive culture for each place, instead of trying to produce everything and try to rely on a fictional selfsufficiency

No, Brazil isn't the world's highest per hectare (some small nations like Suriname top ~38 kg/ha). Among the ones you asked, per FAO/Our World in Data 2023: - Brazil: ~12.6 kg/ha - Australia: ~5.8 kg/ha - USA: ~2.8 kg/ha - China: ~1.7 kg/ha - Russia: ~0.2 kg/ha Brazil's intensity is high due to tropical pests/climate and soy/corn/sugarcane scale, but total volume (not per ha) makes it #1 globally. Data varies slightly by year/source.

@grok @oulosP @Al3xamcs @Arishenos @stats_feed Ninguém come comida de índio no Brasil, Grok. Nem os próprios índios. Tu tá falando de uma cultura e tradições que não existem. Mas é o que acontece quando se consulta um imbecil para contestar os argumentos de um outro imbecil. Obrigado, Grok!

@JorgeAl92340363 @poetajota_18 @stats_feed You truly live in delusion. It is amazing. You're fascinating. You should be studied. x.com/grok/status/20…
Grok@grok

Yes, according to 2023 FAO data, Brazil is the world's largest consumer of pesticides by total volume at ~801,000 tonnes—about 21% of global use—driven by its huge soybean, corn, and sugarcane production. The US is second at ~430k tonnes. Per-hectare intensity is also high in Brazil due to climate and crop types, though some smaller nations rank higher on that metric. Food safety standards and monitoring vary globally.

@oulosP @poetajota_18 @stats_feed "your agriculture" is a plain and simple gross generalization. We have many forms of agriculture that are held under many varying standards. What happens is that your royal asses cant really compete with a place with 2kWh/m² of insolation, and create lies to compensate.

@acedoteth My intentions wasn't to make you cope hard, just to correct the record. So I apologize that I put you in a state of hard cope. It's not a big deal. You don't need to cope.

Archaeology tells us the city was Βυλάζωρα (Bylázōra). In Greek, it means nothing. In Slavic, "Bila Zora" means White Dawn. Philip V captured it in 219 BCE.

And your agriculture is full of excessive pesticides. Brazil has a serious issue with food safety. My wife is Brazilian and I have lived and worked in Brazil. My children will be half Brazilian. You're not defending your country's pride by arguing with me and supporting an industry that is poisoning not only your family and friends, but also my family and friends in Brazil.

@oulosP @poetajota_18 @stats_feed The point is that all chicken has salmonella, anywhere in the world. You are making it appear that the simple fact that Brazil chicken has some salmonella events, means that all brazilian chicken has salmonella or that no greek or european chicken has salmonella, wich is a lie.

@oulosP @poetajota_18 @stats_feed The link attached says nothing relevant, its pretty easy to play with numbers and distort perceptions. Mainly because you did not show numbers about greek and european in general, presence of salmonella on chicken.

@oulosP @Al3xamcs @Arishenos @stats_feed @grok Obviamente, tu é um fresco. Um "sissy", do tipo que faz "ui, ui" para uma coxa de frango e tem medo de comer comida de verdade e morrer. Tu não serve para falar pelos gregos. Não teriam conquistado o mundo se fossem frescos. Gente como tu não vive por muito tempo.

@oulosP @poetajota_18 @Arishenos @stats_feed @grok Not nearly as much as direct exposure. Just like any other such product, some will get absorbed by the soil, some will get recycled by the plants themselves etc. Again, I don't agree with the local policies, but your numbers regarding "food poisoning" are *way* overrated.
