Villain origin story

“Wow they’re really religious”

I keep linking…?

An atypical example of something is still a “true” example of the thing, especially given that the very term derives its origin from Stonehenge itself.

I think the article is a bit confused in both defining the “henge” and saying if it is a henge or not. It sets a definition that Stonehenge doesn’t follow, calls it “atypical”, says it’s not “true” henge (whatever that means) and so on. And all of those seem to be not directly sourced. One of the sources makes the confusion even worse:

Ironically, even though Stonehenge has an earthwork circle around it (the earliest phase of the monument), it isn’t officially a ‘proper’ henge, as the main ditch is external to the main bank. It has to make do with being a ‘proto-henge’.

I guess in this use it a “proper” (“true”?) henge is a henge and “proto-henge” is not a henge but a thing that precedes them. That’d explain some of the confusion. Could also be that “proto-henge” is counted as a form of a henge, but I’m not sure. Other examples seem to consider it preceding actual henges.

It would help if there was one definition for henge but there seems to be some that define it like in the article, with the ditch inside and others that just include a ditch.

especially given that the very term derives its origin from Stonehenge itself.

Terms can change over time, it could be the definiton of “henge” has changed.

Oh damn you had already mentioned this!

Something I learned from QI

Stonehenge is not a true henge, as its ditch runs outside its bank, although there is a small extant external bank as well.

I don’t care enough to set one

Fuck, why not just use MBR and save the money

It does feel like zoomies and kids in general have lost a lot of technical knowledge when it comes to computers.

No, Romans didn’t make the Sahara. The myth is usually that they salted the earth when they destroyed Carthage but that isn’t true either

I got as far as

As this internal CIA document made publically available by FOIA shows, The Atlantic Council, is a CIA front.

I didn’t see any mention of The Atlantic Council in it. Does the link lead to the correct document or did I just miss it?

E: It directs me to the front page of the reading room, not to a pdf

It’s just that when it’s titled “Reddit AMA **claiming** to be A Uyghur…” you sorta expect it to be scrutinizing that particular claim. Should be titled differently imo

I’m not seeing anything in that article saying she isn’t Uyghur. It mentions that she has a degree from Xinjiang University which is located in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

I think you could better word your post to reflect that you’re suspicious about her claims for who she has worked for instead of her being Uyghur, if I understood correctly what’s happening

Not all of any social media, including Reddit but also fediverse, is going to be organic. Not that that means the general sentiments aren’t real.

Or armpit

It’s body temperature lol

What’s with all the 30-yos with back problems like that’s not an age where you’re supposed to have a bad back yet lol

>Microsoft triggered a viral furor when it revealed a Teams update to tell your company when you’re not at work.

This is the funniest thing, people mad that Teams tracks if you’re actually doing work lol
