@a_guyin @agrippa_dr This is the real reason they built the pyramids BTW.

@OSPSF Isn’t this NASAs X-36?

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@oilmutt @SpaceX Gas or voltage detector.

@memeticsisyphus @Homesteadgourme If you have a business, and the line from your business is so long that it begins negatively impacting businesses around you, you become obligated to design an alternate means of mitigating this problem. Urban planners are retarded, but this isn’t why.

@SterlingCooley @olmslambda @tourist11740457 @Quantumvacuume Khafre’s pyramid loses upper casing stones every year. It will look like the others in a matter of decades. The fact that it eroded slower does not, in any way, imply that some giant unknown sea existed that people just never noticed?

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@SterlingCooley @tourist11740457 @Quantumvacuume Thermal expansion bulges the pyramid near the center of the faces, and creates the exact erosion patterns we see. The Egyptians even realized this and attempted to change the design of the core for the pyramids at Giza to compensate. This is not a mystery.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@SterlingCooley @tourist11740457 @Quantumvacuume You are claiming that a pyramid for which there is a consistent timeline of documented history was eroded by a sea hundreds of feet high on the Giza plateau, an area for which there is also absolutely zero evidence of an inland sea.

Be serious brother.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@MetaDune @SterlingCooley @Quantumvacuume Are you retarded? You realize we have written records documenting pretty much every era from pre dynastic Egypt to present, right?

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@SterlingCooley @tourist11740457 @Quantumvacuume We also have sketches and descriptions from countless world travellers over many centuries that describe the pyramid in varying states of the decay process. Each pyramid has the same structural weaknesses. People have literally watched and documented them eroding one by one.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@SterlingCooley @tourist11740457 @Quantumvacuume You know, there is actual science available. If you took your schizophrenia medication for long enough to learn how to read a book, you’d know that this is the result of thermal expansion and contraction.

The top was too high to quarry.

We literally have records of the thefts.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@SterlingCooley @Quantumvacuume You are either trolling or genuinely retarded. There is a documented record of Egypt from Pyramid building to present. When the fuck did this magic sea appear and then run away?

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@jccfergie You have a Palestinian flag in your name because a communist defector named Roy Singham told you that you should and you don’t even realize it.

Your opinion on literally anything couldn’t be more irrelevant.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@privatebirb @BobJRRKing This entire premise is wrong. Production scales exponentially with effort. The man who puts in 11 hours often is substantially more than 10% more productive than the man who works 10 hours.

Stating that effort has a diminishing value reward shows you’ve never worked hard.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@privatebirb @BobJRRKing But they won’t, because they’ve learned that not working “doesn’t really affect society.” And then another one does it. And another. And another. Now no one’s working, and it turns out, at scale, it does really affect society. It’s human nature and you cannot change it.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

But “the city” is just a coalition of the public, and serves merely as an organizing function in a consensus system employed due to the realization that civilization and structure optimizes the human experience. We collectively agree, for the sake of civility and largely for the sake of protecting ourselves, that there should be a consequence for an action that causes harm to another. It’s a balancing force that forces society’s game theory into a state of Nash equilibrium, stabilizing it. Property ownership enabled civilization to advance at an unprecedented speed, and was only possible through implementation of functions that could enforce property rights. Law enforcement isn’t violence, it’s the tool humans use to stabilize social structures.

@sailaunderscore Darien Gap. If I can get to a road, I can get to the Pan American, from there it’s an airport by car or boat and out. The travel logistics can be easy, the red tape is what will tie you up. The north is just far less networked w/o pop. to support distributed, staffed airstrips.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@deuceohsixx Swank is so fucking based.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@MoundLore Honestly, this is awesome. If it would have become housing, or really anything else, it would have been decimated. This largely preserves the site underground and gives countless people an incentive to ensure that continues.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@creekfren @BasedHarun You’re so close.

Why did gold, a relatively fixed supply asset, skyrocket in USD value?

Seeing as gold is a proxy for purchasing power, if you earn less gold in the same amount of time, you’re essentially earning less purchasing power, which is all that money measures.

[Riley @RileyGrant]

@fawfulfan Okay now do food and energy production.
