Assuming that knowledge and resource locations are retained. Roman's had great concrete. Took a long time to reestablish what Humans already had and mixing raw materials is not complicated.
After the Roman Empire, the use of burned lime and pozzolana was greatly reduced. Low kiln temperatures in the burning of lime, lack of pozzolana, and poor mixing all contributed to a decline in the quality of concrete and mortar
We need a Foundation project to restart society If we want to avoid this. Worst case solar cells becomes myth like Greek fire.
Universe 25 experiment.
My take away from it is when society gets bored and loses goals it's over. If the mice had some predators they probably wouldn't have collapsed.
Humans don't have predators but have dreams that we worked toward amd stimulate us. Once we lose that it's like what happened Walle. Stuck in a system slowly dying full of apathy.
I always believe living itself requires sacrifice. Sure I feel restricted but when am I not? There is always some rule I have to accept.
Personally, being with someone close to who you want to be and editing them over the decades is more acceptable to me than constantly find them. And I did try for years but no one else really gave me a chance or worst I have 0 respected for them and they made me feel terrible for even considering them. But here is a person who has always been a great friend but is just repressed and won't open up. Take the bird in the hand is my choice.
Can't appricate everything. Though that would be amazing.
Example:
I Hate how lazer focus SO is when doing everything. But we have very different tasks. Mine don't require so much creativity and I feel I need constant stimulus to keep me focused. Ez fix, I wear head sets and listen to pod casts. Still annoys me when I want attention for something I need input on but w/e it can wait. Can't change that about a person and I wont bother.
Eh it's just not all of me. SO broke up with me in 5 days in cause I was too heavy handed emotional. I went Full Gomez. I just felt like when we started dating I could finally express the all emotions that accumulated from being friends. BIG mistake.
Took 2 months of just going back to friends to reel back in. Since then I've tried going full on occasionally but it's always "you're too much". It's small price to be with the only person I trust more than my mother
Lol More like nuke! I fell at first sight so suppressing emotions the whole time we were friends and releasing all that after really connecting so deeply was a bad choice.
I truly felt possessed. Like I was a otome character and player kept pressed x. Super out of character for me. Frankly, terrifying so much happened on autopilot.
Thankfully, I was able to get my wish granted in the end.
Worst possible outcome. Sooo many houses have space all for rent. Welcome to next level dystopia.
Best case I think chunk of real estate companies go bankrupt due to increased demand or rent drops considerably. There are plenty of towns that have homes that need to be leveled and rebuilt. Would be nice if this can start a change.
Sometimes on Lemmy these seem like the only jobs that actually exist, but I'm sure there's a lot of people here with different and unusual lines of work.
Soo is cruelty the point?
Seems like they are giving people anti violence drugs that are not violent. Seems like big pharma made a deal or this test to make a society like "We Happy Few".
Literally why I think killing someone's family in movies is dumb. You Literally left that dude with nothing but hate. Kind of annoying trope that people get broken instead of full vengeance mode. Very rare you see a character like in Foundation that goes "do it and lose your leverage".
Tens of thousands of male convicts have been freed to fight in Ukraine. It is not clear if a small contingent of female volunteers released from a prison portends wider use of female soldiers.
Had an argument with FIL where he argued his last child Is out of school so he votes against school taxes. I'm like you know that pays for the people you and your family will interact with.
His response was "I want them as ignorant as me". Even as joke it's lacks wisdom. He just complained about doctors being uneducated an hour before.

Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don't come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don't really get upset by it...
I wonder if how I feel about eating meat is how GOP feel about trump.
Don't care about facts makes me feel good.
Like is being leftist to gop is how vegans feel to traditionalist?
I'm ashamed to say not very familiar with her.
Looked up wiki and found this.
One day Mal-2 consulted his Pineal Gland and asked Eris if She really created all of those terrible things. She told him that She had always liked the Old Greeks, but that they cannot be trusted with historic matters. "They were," She added, "victims of indigestion, you know."
Suffice it to say that Eris is not hateful or malicious. But she is mischievous, and does get a little bitchy at times.[17]
There is a whole religion on her. Did dems piss her off?
Probably not Loki. I don't feel this is his brand.
Only if we don't go full idioacracy.
Onion already getting frustrated.
I recall them talking about a robot dragon being developed by government and I didn't know it was satire until end because the bar is soo low.
I had a huge argument with art curator over how a wall a black is not art. Got in face about how if it's that easy I should just do it. I'm like bruh I did it in My room as a child. Modern art is soo pathetic.
