It's great. Tons of interesting stuff on permanent display, excellent temporary exhibitions and fantastic backup for both via books and Web content.

Their toilets are the worst stygian stink pit in Christendom though. Hold it in and waddle down to the ones at the Wallace Collection.

Oh yeah, and good luck getting into the Egyptian section or anywhere near the real Rosetta Stone if it's busy or a weekend.

Good displays, actual books in the gift shop, mostly accessible. What more could you want?

Privacy is a meme and going the way of the dodo, it's better to adapt and assume that everything you do can be shared publicly

He made some great songs, shame he died so young. Anyone been to his grave in Paris?

What's with the Western world and their extremely positive attitude towards the Gulf monarchies and the Saudi's in particular. If any part of the world was more anti-enlightenment, it's here. Yet we can't stop loving them.
Is it just "deh oil"? Or something else?

1. Its the oil
2. Its their money in general [see: Hillary Clinton]
3. Its because the Democratic Coalition isn't a massed group with shared values, its a disparate alliance against an imaginary phantom [the dreaded straight white male]. Muslims can be absolutely medieval and nobody on the Left will care because muh progress muh culture muh religion of peace.

They keep a pretty good lid on both sand niggers and petroleum deposits.

Or at least, they do a good enough job that we fear that whatever would replace them would be even worse.

Judging from your picture, I'd say it is more like a couteau de brêche and a fauchard. A voulge would be pic related.

Fouchard is supposed to be flat, while couteau is supposed to have a hook. Then again, you are correct that every author has it's own naming.

How did Europe manage to overtake East Asia so absurdly in terms of technology, influence, and power starting around the 14th/15th century? What caused things like the renaissance and industrial revolution to occur in Europe instead of Asia?

>>2127509
industrial revolution <- new world (lot of capitals coming in, fueling industries)
Renaissance was just Europe closing the gap.

The Ming emperor went full retard

Because europeans compete against each other all the time and started to think of science to gain wealth.
Greeks practised philosophy because of kek, italians studied stuff because ??? Its fun and for the sake of it etc.
Then people started to realize we could better our lives through science and tools and started to create stuff that made life easier and produce stuff cheaper, faster and better.
It started in year 1600ish and truly hit a milestone with steam engine and from there on it went über fast. Brits and french also had alot of money from S. America which made stuff easier.

it's his followers who are insufferable cunts
Evola feeds into and justify their smugness
sort of like plebs reading Nietzsche, but Evola is a bit more obscure than him, so the smugness rises

he got some things wrong too, minor thing, but still
he seemed to think that the masculine is prior to the feminine
while Hindu (and perennial philosophy) holds that both are present at the beginning

He was objectively wrong about this. Liberalism won the Cold War, not communism. You could argue communist did win by subverting liberalism, but hardly it's Bolshevik variant.

Friendly reminder that western civilization was at its height during the Middle Ages, under the guidance of the Catholic Church.

Friendly reminder that Protestant dumbasses and "enlightenment" fedoras destroyed 1000 years of peace and prosperity.

Friendly reminder that a single cohort of crusader heavy cavalry could easily destroy 2 or more Roman legions from the principate era.

Since when did Medieval European armies divide their soldiers up into cohorts, and what exactly is "crusader cavalry?" Are you talking about knights?
