the hoover dam will still be around after a few thousand years
they just don't build them like they used to

- To clarify, I'm not sure it's "perfectly" aligned "north" because "north" magnetic moves by thousands of miles every few hundred years, and "north" as geographic north is a recent definition. Other than that, apparently it could be done by simply taking the solstice positions of the rising and setting sun, and taking half of this angle, you get the north. However, it's true they made it quite precisely.
- I can find Pi in my cock proportions if I wanted to
- True that
- Do you believe people who say that ? We can build engines with parts with a precision enough to allow them to rotate 30 000 times a minute, easily. We should stop sensationalizing this, by simply saying "it's build with an incredible precision for that time". If we really wanted to, we would do much better nowadays, trust the old engineer in me
- I will relate again to the size of my cock, I can make up a calculation between the length of it and the distance earth/sun if you want, just give me time to make up a decent BS calculation. Do you really believe they could know the speed of light ?
- Yeah they are still there... but not all their other buildings, vehicles, cities... I'm sure in 3000 years you can find way more from our civilzation (proportions taken in consideration) than from old egypt. As amazing as they were, I don't see what is amazing about the fact the pyramids are still there, I mean, it is, but as in "wow omg they were so advanced".
You knew I was gonna post
Don't get me wrong, I am personally very amazed by the old egypt, and I used to study it a lot in my youth for fun, I even started learning hieroglyphs when I had too much free time, and all. I just don't like BS things like "you can find Pi in its proportions omg they were geniuses"
Anyway... we all know these are goa'uld vessels docks.

I know, I just thought about it after I posted the message and thought "oh fuck it" hoping it would pass under the radar

something 3.14 cm usually does pass under the radar so I can see why you would have counted on that

Had to post that.
I feel the same as LeSedna. Nobody can deny the amazing feat it took to build the pyramids et al, but I think it gets blown out of proportion. I mean, we get it, they were pretty smart for their time, nobody denies that. But it's quite an exaggeration to imply, or flat out say, that they even remotely had as good of an understanding of science/space, mathematics or engineering than we currently have today. Or even ~100 years ago. The lone fact that we currently have more advanced engineering knowledge would allow us to build the pyramids the same way, but with better precision. There's been tons of studies, documentaries and articles explaining how the pyramids physically could have been built, the majority of which are completely plausible. There is nothing special about how they physically built the pyramids other than the fact they built them. Know-how, "elbow grease," slaves and money... the same way it's done now, basically.

A thread about the Great Pyramid turned into a penis-length discussion in 4 posts. You can't explain that!

Personally, I think it's a diversion to keep us from seeing the incredible truth...

A cubit was an unspecific measurement ranging between 52.3cm and 52.9cm.
And well.. considering that the metre was invented in ~1790 i seriously doubt that the egyptians had that in consideration.
