  • If the threshold for “high danger” to secularism is religious imagery in governemnt issued things, then probably most of the world would be classified as “high danger.” This would, as you could guess, make the whole metric pointless against actual dangers.

    Nitpicking these small things first instead of showing the big thing first, like you did, is counter productive. People aren’t affected by phrases in money, but they sure as hell will be affected by that in the article, so start with that.












  • My first distrobution was the good old Ubuntu for a laptop that I used for school. I stuck with that for 2-3 years. During that time I really, really wanted to try out new distros, but I didn’t want to lose my files and such, so I just stuck with it. During this time I also changed my desktop’s os to Ubuntu, but I am not sure when I did it.

    After I got a Laptop due to the previous being old and broken, I tried out Arch Linux and grew to love it more than Ubuntu, so I changed out my desktop’s os to that as well when I got a new ssd and was migrating to it. I used Arch for another year or two, before my laptop had a disk failure and I had to reinstall. I installed Debian onto it, since I was feeling lazy and didn’t want to go through the mess of installing Arch again. And then later I also installed Windows on it with dualboot for games that didn’t want to work with Proton.

    So basically I now use Arch on the desktop and Debian/Windows on laptop.








  • Before agriculture people were like that, but as people settled down it created a class system. Then people got more powerful and such and states began to be created.

    During this time (Around 4000bce and 400ce) feudalism wasn’t really a thing, but after the Western Roman Empire fell around 400ce the power vacuum it created lead to the creation of feudalism. This was because of several factors, but I can’t remember them all right now.

    But money did exist even before the creation feudalism, since the Romans and the Egyptians did have money. Even in Mesopotamia currency was used. And even if money didn’t exist trade was still being done with valueable things like resources and other commodities, which lead to those things becoming a de-facto currency.

    So basically pre-agriculture was like tribes that shared their stuff and such, but after agriculture not so much. Of course this isn’t a one-answer-fits-all thing, since there are always exceptions.

    Sorry for the long ramble. I just got really into writing this thing. Also I could be wrong on some things, since I am writing from memory.
