Then soak your tablets after writing them!

When you light papyrus on fire, it turns into ash. When you light a clay tablet on fire, it becomes stronger than before.

Today when I was visiting the marketplace for some new pots, I came across a merchant selling these odd, a bit fabric-like white sheets. He told me that the Egyptians make these from reeds to write on them.

Personally, I don't see a need for such a material. Just use a clay tablet like a normal person!

But then how will line go up??

[-] hungryphrog 2 points 2 days ago

That'd require planning tho.

Maybe? But in my opinion, judging from the trailer, this just feels like a cash grab made with horrible CGI.

Robots don't demand things like "fair wages" or "rights". It's way cheaper for a corporation to, for example, use a plagiarizing artificial unintelligence to make images for something, as opposed to commissioning a human artist who most likely will demand some amount of payment for their work.

Also I think that it's partially caused by people going "ooh, new thing!" without stopping to think about the consequences of this technology or if it is actually useful.

What kind of laptop should I get? (self.nostupidquestions)

So, I'm planning on buying myself a (second-hand) laptop once I get the money. I'm nowhere near tech-savvy so it has to be easy to use, but also I want something that is built to last, as opposed to certain (looking at you, Apple) devices that are desinged to become unusable within a next couple of years.

Any recommendations?

Why my nose gets runny when I cry (self.explainlikeimfive)

Pretty much every time I cry, my nose gets super runny and my throat gets slimy. Why is that?

So, embarassing story: I went to the baths, took off my clothes, and left my tunic there. I had nobody to watch them because my slave ran away the other day, and when I came back, it was gone. So, if there's anyone nearby willing to lend me an extra tunic, please DM me ASAP. It's getting cold here.

P.S. Does anyone know any good curses to write on my curse tablet?

So I'm looking for a tool that can tell me the total cost of things I buy. Like if I buy item A for 1,20€, item B for 5,60€ and item C for 10€, it tells me how much the things I'm buying cost, which would be 16,80€ in this case.

I tried looking it up, but apparently ddg is once again incapable of showing any relevant results.

So, I happen to be a king near the Mediterranean (not telling where bc I don't wannna doxx myself), and the other day a messanger ran into my palace shouting "the sea people are coming!".

I told him that there can't be 'sea people' because people live on land and not in the sea, but he kept insisting that there are 'sea people' and they're coming, so I had him drowned to prove that people living in the sea is impossible.

Now all kids in the city are talking about 'sea people' and it's driving me nuts. I hope this trend goes away soon.
