    It's too bad about Notra Dame, hopefully when it's repaired/rebuilt they use a few more fireproof materials.

    I just re-looked at the parking regulations sign, and I think it's an eye-catching red, which is meant to draw attention to it.

    But I'm color blind so :rotate:

    What a dumb choice to put under a clear white sign.

    You can’t just build a wonder

    You start by building a big fuck-off structure then hope that travel writers hundreds of years later decide to write about them

    I'd class the CERN complex as a modern wonder of the world. Can it be a wonder if it's dynamic, evolving thing though?

    It's high investment though, maybe you spend 6 years building the pyramids and then Ghandi says he did it so now the work you put in disappears and you just wasted 6 years.

    Sometimes you can instantly build a sewer or a guy with a pike though so it's not all bad

    Pretty sure it takes a while to get to them but there are katanas, and if deflecting is parrying or blocking then yes.

    I hate these. None of this will endure more then like, 6 months after they stop paying for it. They're entirely dependent on trucking sand from one side of the beach to the other to replenish what's being eroded. There's nothing clever or inspiring about the effort - no unique technology or mechanism which makes it possible.

    We should be build more brand new wonders.

    I think we should also look at we have built recently that really are wonders but seem underwhelming to us.

    1)The Chunnel. We built a tunnel under the ocean. This thing is nuts.
    2)The ISS. We built a place for humans to live outside the atmosphere for extended periods of time.
    3)The internet, we built an near instantaneous communication device reaching around the entire world.

    When you think about it. Wonders more about us being amazed someone in the past could do something where ones that surround us seem mundane because we live with it.

    Oh, yeah. The internet is absolutely a wonder of the world.

    I kinda want to say that the effectively Earth-sized telescope we managed to take that picture of M87 with ought to count too.

    Everything that we have only managed through international cooperation is definitely on the short-list for me.

    I don’t even mean a technologically advanced marvel, necessarily. A building with a distinct look, in a suitable location, that becomes recognizable around the world would do. Beauty is a wonder.

    Also I just found out that M87’s black hole was given a new name to commemorate the photo, which is Powehi.
    Pōwehi isn’t just the perfect name for the M87 black hole because it bears an epic meaning: “embellished dark source of unending creation.”

    It’s also apropos because two of the eight powerful telescopes used to generate the first black hole image are located in Hawaii — so seems fitting that the M87 black hole’s name be tied to its Hawaiian roots.

    “To have the privilege of giving a Hawaiian name to the very first scientific confirmation of a black hole is very meaningful to me and my Hawaiian lineage that comes from pō,” Kimura said in a press release, “and I hope we are able to continue naming future black holes from Hawaiʻi astronomy according to the Kumulipo.”

    Well that’s fucking cool

    One thing I think about sometimes is the spacecraft they sent after that asteroid. Traveling for several years in a complex path around other planets to end up where that asteroid would be and match the speed so precisely that it was able to orbit around something with a rounding error’s worth of gravitational pull.

    Today I learned that the cathedral was hastily renovated in the 19th century after Victor Hugo made it famous, and that hasty renovation contributed to the problems that led to the need for the massive overhaul that was currently underway before the fire.
