Besides being a soulless mega corp who only exist to serve the unholy gods of greed and gluttony, what’s so bad about home Depot?

Where I’m at they’re usually a glorified lean-to. Ran by either a kid or an old, never anyone in-between. Or just the honor system. Usually has excellent produce for real cheap.

The US military is seriously preparing [Geopolitical Economy Report]25·3 days agoChina will fuck with Taiwan just enough to get them to melt their chip foundries, then blockade the fuck out of them till they say uncle. Give china another five years or so to get their own chip industry to something approaching parity, then they’ll strike. Once Taiwan loses their best export, support for them will plummet.

MintyFresh@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why did/do sites such as the pyramids in Egypt or the Roman colosseum end up in an abandoned state, only to be "rediscovered" later?0·1 month agoReusing stones from ancient ruins used to be a widespread practice. I remember hearing a story, not sure how true it is, that the ottomans had plans to use the giza pyramids as a quarry. The practice of grinding up old mummies is almost as ancient as the mummies themselves. Used mainly for fertilizer I believe, and I think it was in vogue as a paint pigment for a while.
I know there are places, especially around the Mediterranean, where you can see foundation stones still etched with ancient hieroglyphic/whatever scrip just thrown in willie nillie.
I won’t condone everything the British museum has done, but a lot of these artifacts wouldn’t exist if they weren’t shipped off. Caring about the past and the artefacts left behind, while by no means new thing, most people for most of history didn’t seem to give two shits. Probably more concerned with not starving etc…
