You can also weigh water, 100ml weighs 100 grams

Not a shit post but I did eat one when I was in Colombia. It was actually very tasty.

Sorry to break it to you but vanity sizing has made clothes bigger

Be glad you don’t live in a high cost of living area, my first thought was envy of how cheap that was for you.

I remember reading in college and essay about school is for making you tolerant doing the same thing say in day out for 50+ years 8 hours a day. It really clicked and made understand why I did so poorly in high school but thrived in college.

Always use steam gift cards already in your account for in demand purchases. It prevents the credit card processing errors

Use a gift card instead of your credit card to get your order in faster. People who preordered the first version got through quicker because steam could process the transactions while credit card users were stuck waiting.

My kind of post

The original captchas were to help computers read scanned books for OCR. It was a neat solution that had value where it prevented abuse on websites and helped open up knowledge to people.

Now captchas aren’t needed because of cookies and fingerprinting and tech companies know if you’re malicious or not. They kept it going because it’s so valuable to tech companies.

To train ai models

People would just go on the internet and tell ties? I don’t believe you.

Ever since it was widely available, I see one on every flight I take. It’s not surprising it’s sold well.

For those who don’t know, the blue liquid is their blood

You’re right they were not paid money, but they arguably were provided more goods for their services starting in the 15th century. In western Europe.

Eastern and Western Europe behaved very differently when it came to serfdom. Serfdom, as you described it, began to decline starting in western Europe in the 15th century and was pretty much gone by the 17th century. Meanwhile Eastern Europe started a rise in serfdom as you described it in the 16th century.

Serfs started to get better conditions thanks to the bubonic plague and increasing workers power over lords. In western Europe they were paid a higher share of the crop as a result. They still had a bad life overall, but it got ever so slightly better.

The whole notion that they had 150 days off isn’t even necessarily accurate either because record keeping is so bad from those eras on time worked. It’s not enough data to provide an accurate assessment of working hours.

The church wasnt why peasants worked less. They worked less because there wasn’t that much work to be done. During the slow season, there just isn’t enough work to justify paying a peasant to work.

To be fair, I’m only quoting what their marketing material sent me as a subscriber.

I would. I didn’t have HBO growing up so I missed out on so much of their TV shows. I got it 2 years ago and had no issue paying $300 for 2 years. Got to watch a lot of shows I always wanted to watch. It doesn’t have a big enough catalog to keep me subscribing for a 3rd year.

They increased prices this year too. It used to be $150/yr, it’s now $200/yr.

You’re right they’re both levening agents but my understanding was in cookies soda is used for browning and not levening because there is no acid for it to react with.
