  1. The Professor

    An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    Does the R Haplotype support this or not? It measures Y chromosomes after all, and given 50% of any pregnancy would produce males then mass rape of the local population should lead to extinction of Brythonic Y chromosomes fairly shortly no?

    Threadmarks: Savior Complex

    The Visayan Speakers of Cebu and Butuan would see the Spanish as their saviors against the Tausug raiders from the Bolkiah ruled Sulu-Brunei Sultanate, during the time of Legaspi the people of Madyaas would submit to the Spanish and the Spanish would also save the people related to the Visayans...

    Re: lack of records: A lot of the rapes would have occurred after the fighting was done, when the Britons were impressed into slavery by the Saxons. And also, mass rape was probably a common feature of war during the Migration period. I think it was just understood by the people of the time...

    How would a presidency of Lyndon Larouche look like?

    I don't get it, what is the joke? Your point about conspiracy theories makes me wonder how big would be the damage that he would do to the common perception of truth, I imagine that there would be a earlier rise to fact checking because of that He might give official support for the LaRouchist...
  8. "What Madness Is This?" Volume II: Prophecies in the Dark

    It became popular among gentiles in the 19th century IOTL for supposed health benefits. That would probably still happen ITTL, but it might have that added religious connotation as well.

    No 1991 August Coup

    Yeah you could say that it was just everybody projecting their hopes on it. But that 75% support is still pretty big. I’d call that populist support. At least for a few years I think he’d have the political mandate to run this his way so long as yeltsin isn’t too successful or the economy is...
  10. An Arthurian Empire of Britannia discussion

    Most records mention the urban population killed in either the sacks or the starvation that happened in winters after the sacks (presumably the invaders took all the food). Few migrated out and lived a fruitful life. Or, given that nothing supports the contemporary records, apparently all the...

  12. PDWs as spin-offs from the 'Artillery Luger' in widespread use in 1915-1945

    Once the combined pistol and stock becomes less practical to carry than a carbine, it makes more sense to pack a carbine and have more range and penetration. Most of this stocked pistols are also uncomfortable to shoot and it's much easier to hit at over 100 meters when using a short rifle...

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    Considering that Firefly appeared over a decade after Ringworld is cancelled means that more than enough time has gone by for the general viewing audience to have mostly forgotten Ringworld to not butterfly away Firefly. Plus Firefly has more of a "Space Western" feel to me than what Ringworld...

    A7 Corsair II kills the A10 program

    and that noise alone boosts morale for friendlies, and lowers the enemies. An Arclight from B-52 is otherworldly, devastatingly destruction from nowhere, while the A-10 is very personal, hear the wind whistling and turbines buzz Same for AH-64s, as well. On the battlefield, there are good...

    That is interesting.. I recall seeing comments along the lines of full sized locked breach military issue auto pistols costing several times as much as typical military issue service rifles in the WW1 Era but I will defer to you re this as you have an actual number (but I can see simple blow...

    The R Haplotype would be a good indication if indeed mass rape happened. Especially as we don't really have any records that detail that.
