>All information should be accessible to the public
>An independent body should be responsible for the information accessible to the public

Which is right? I'm starting the think the internet was a mistake.

An independent body having control of access has too much power. I'd rather everyone have access, even if that inevitably means a lot of fuckwits are going to fall for dumb shit.
>>
>>2656409

To add to this though I do think there is certain information that obviously shouldn't be public access, If by "All information" you mean ALL information then yes there should be a body regulating some of it. It shouldn't include private information like medical documents and other classified materials. There should be a good criteria for determining what gets classified though.

Was Chili historically made with or without beans?

With.

Chili with meat was considered the unusual kind, hence "chili con carne" (chili with meat).

>>2656272
I thought chili con carne came first? On another note, what is your favourite chili?
>>
Chili is defined as - beans, tomato, chilis (or chili powder

anything else is just for flavor

When did people start using traffic cones?

Where were the first traffic cones made?

How did people deal with traffic cones when they were first used? How are you supposed to react when you first see one, and possibly not know what their purpose is? Were people told about their purpose?

Why orange or red?
Why the cone shape?

What are the most beautiful traffic cones in history?

Which has been the most influential traffic cone?

Are there any ceremonial traffic cones somewhere?

This is legitimately a refreshing thread for this board.

Have a bump.

Traffic cones were invented by Charles D. Scanlon, an American who got the idea while working as a painter for the Street Painting Department of the City of Los Angeles. The patent for his invention was granted in 1943.

The first traffic cones used in the United Kingdom occurred In 1958, when the M6 motorway opened. These traffic cones were a substitute for red lantern paraffin burners being used during construction on the Preston Bypass. In 1961, David Morgan of Burford, Oxfordshire, UK believes that he constructed the first experimental plastic traffic cones, which replaced pyramid-shaped wooden ones previously used.

In the United States on May 1, 1959 the Pacific Gas and Electric Company in Oakland, California adopted the policy of placing the orange safety cones at left front and the left rear corners of their service trucks while parked on the street to increase visibility and safety for the workers. This policy was implemented as the result of a suggestion by their employee, Russell Storch, a cable splicer. He was awarded $45 for his suggestion. This policy is still in use today.

Although originally made of concrete, today's versions are more commonly brightly colored thermoplastic or rubber cones. Recycled PVCs from bottles can be used to create modern traffic cones. Not all traffic cones are conical. Pillar-shaped movable bollards fulfill a similar function

Are these the concrete traffic cones used before?

Also, what did the wooden concrete cones look like?

How can David Morgan say he invented the plastic cones when Charles D. Scanlon had already invented them a decade earlier (and they were used)?

What about other parts of the world? What traffic cones did they use in China or France?

Somebody else here is attracted to the concept of Pederasty, so common for Greeks and Romans (not only with boys, but also girls)? Why did it disappeared?

So let me get this straight..

This bitch traveled the entire country accompanied by two guys?
Did she get DP'd and spitroast like every single night or something? What a whore.

>>2656189
It's a big jump going from "she travelled with two guys" to "she got spitroasted on the regular".
I myself would have thought "she fucked one and the other was left morose and blueballed", but I imagine that a cuck like you would think of sharing first thing.

Because real life isn't a fucking Paradox game, and you can't just annex an entirely different group of 40 million people in one war.

To be honest Paradox were the first to make it impossible to do just that in a game, adding a whole new layer of realism.

He didn't even want to get Alsace-Lorraine. He was convinced making an enemy out of France would be Germany's downfall.

The French declaring war on Prussia allowed him to rally other German states behind Prussia. Reason he provoked a war against France was so he could unite the German states under Prussian leadership with a war to seal the complete centralisation, taking land from France was not part of this. He already won when French declared the war, fighting the war itself and being as successful as they were was just cherry on top.

No, childhood is idolizing Prussia. Adulthood is realizing that your instincts were correct.

Childhood is when you idolize Nation states. Adulthood is when you realize a World Communist Government makes more sense.

Did people go on dates in ancient times?
23 posts and 6 images submitted.
>>
No.
>>
>>2655681
Well, not necessarily no.

In feudal villages, peasants who had nothing to gain could marry freely. That could entail courtship which incorporate features of dating.

Dating is essentially an animalistic trait where you demonstrate virtue and gift giving to a mate.
>>
>>2655700
definitely a no
there were no "seeing" each other period apart from private talks maybe
if you were interested that meant youll marry, and contact the family

you know there was a thing called dowry, you wouldnt want your daughter marry someone with absolutely nothing

Post dynasties that ought to have suffered in place of the Romanovs.

I start: Osmanoğlu

Responsible for retarding the development of the Eastern Mediterranean for around half a millennium. Brutal treaty breakers. Basically created a plunder economy that served their personal whims. Somehow managed to turn the Eastern Mediterranean, centre of civilisation in Europe, into a cesspit, whereas formerly barbarous Western Europe rose.
