Rivers clearly demark the boundary for anyone without GPS or other means of determining a precise location. Same as hills and mountain ranges, which are also common boundaries.
The fact that some rivers can wander and people tend to bold cities across rivers is a thing against them, but people build across any kind of boundary.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why is the US$100 bill the most counterfeited?English
1·13 minutes agoFor a very long time US currency did not have a lot of effective anticountergeit measures compared to other countries, and there is a massive amount of US bills decades old still used for transactions. Even the sheer amount of bills being used makes it easier to slip in some counterfeit in an otherwise valid bundle of cash before the fact that it is easier to counterfeit older US bills.
A lot of it is momentum from that, and $100 bills being a great value to volume with lower security measures compared to other currencies. Especially if counterfeiting older US bills.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•[meta] Please ban comics by bigoted artistsEnglish
1203·1 day agoA blanket ‘bigoted artists’ rule is ripe for banning based on someone’s entire history, like firing James Gunn for bad jokes in old tweets.
Instead I would prefer to ban individual artists based on their art. So I fully support banning Jago comics because all the ones I remember are based on anti LGBTQ+ or sexist stereotypes. Not because they are bigoted, but because their content is. No idea who stonetoss is, but if their content is similar then I would also favor banning them.
No purity tests though.

Yes but it shouldn’t be done to infants because they did not and cannot consent.
I have already expressed 100% support of banning non-medically necessary circumcisions.
Me not wanting to be labeled as mutilated doesn’t invalidate your identification as mutilated.
If you consider yourself mutilated, then yes, you are mutilated. I am not mutilated because we see our personal experiences differently.

5·3 days agoA lot of credit goes to the cars and the engineers…

I dislike the ‘mutilated’ label being applied and take it as an insult because of the negative connotations despite not personally having any downsides. It is like claiming that everyone who is overweight based on BMI is unhealthy despite many athletes having a high BMI due to having a lot of muscle.
Plus the person I was responding to said adults who voluntarily chose to get circumcised are mutilated themselves. With that logic ear piercings and voluntarily removing annoying, but not medically probematic moles is mutilation. My point is that you can’t just ignore the negative connotations and use a broad brush to describe people while claiming it is technically accurate.
No, it should not be done to babies without a medical necessity. That doesn’t mean calling everyone who has been circumcised mutilated won’t come across as insulting.

26·3 days agoApparently they did!
The pair drove approximately 52 mph on the track before hitting the loop and experiencing seven Gs of force while going through the loop – at a height of six stories.
Foust, who entered the loop just after Tracy, said it was necessary to avoid driving too fast through the loop in order to prevent the car from breaking down if any part of the chassis scraped against the track. He slowed down a bit when he saw the back left of Tracy’s vehicle was damaged. If either car went slower than 48 mph, it risked losing contact with the track and falling to the ground.
