You are talking about Henry Bennett. This is a myth though. While he did have stairs like that, he died in a care home after years of declining health. His actual cause of death wasn’t announced, but it was likely because he had been in rapid decline for years and just before going into the care home, had a stroke.

I never contradicted any of this, I don’t know of a modern one. You said they never existed… They did.

Concentrated solar plants that heat using a bunch of focused light

I responded to your comment that said they have never been a thing. never.

Cab over engine trucks have existed for a very long time and have models that would absolutely have ~60% of their foot print be bed

Wasn’t one of these built and ended up being a huge failure?

A lot of this is because people had to do a lot more exercise during the day than we do now. Not that the lard was better for us. This is where a lot of the downvotes come from. Even the rich had to do a lot more walking. If we could return to the amount of exercise we averaged 50+ years ago, you would see a lot of this decline. The next big thing is the amount we eat. We consume significantly more calories now than we used to. In the past 100 years it has increased ~20%. All the while we have been doing less physically. The third big factor is where the shitty food comes in. Having sugar/highly refined carbs added to just about everything promotes over-eating, while also fucking with your insulin production, and other endocrine issues, that promote fat retention, while also increasing addictive eating disorder likelihood.

Also Cathode Ray Dude

Also sponge bob skin theory. Dude had a little video putzing around, then a couple years later dropped a couple hour long video to convince people of some absolutely wild shit about sponge bob, then just disappeared.

Yeah, also, imagine in the bronze age, a shaq sized dude was found and trained to be an elite warrior. I could totally see the men of that era, who encountered him in battle, telling tall tails of a 9 foot giant they had to fight.

I mean, Goliath was called a giant but wasn’t “my skull is the size of a full grown man’s torso” big. He is said to be about 9’-9’9". Which, if there was historical legitimacy to the story, could easily be within the range of a very tall person that had their height exaggerated over time.

People change faith all the time. In fact if you type into google “does faith change” the first several things I get are papers discussing that faith does change and why, including the introduction of new information on a subject. So you are wrong.

Then my faith will change

I have faith that there is an attractive force tied to mass

Where did you get this definition? You can absolutely have concrete proof of something, therefore knowledge of it, and still believe it. I believe in gravity. Do you know why? Because there is a lot of proof out there for it. I do not believe things I have no proof of. You can also have faith in something you know, due to proof, is true.

You can also believe, and/or have faith in, things that have no proof.

yes, lengthy, nuanced, disputations, are just what the four panel comics, on the meme forum, needs.

You really think kids use consoles, to access social media, more than phones, and tablets?

He is banning his employees from using them at work.

No, China’s current economy is not communist. Nothing to do with Mao, or what I think about communism personally.

I mean, they already did that.
