What if the Byzantines lasted Long enough to see The United States and The Discovery of The Americas?

What if the Byzantines lasted Long enough to see The United States and The Discovery of The Americas?

Okay, Okay. If you dont Get it. Heres a simple version. Everyone knows how the Ottomans conquered Constantinople in 1453 Ending both the Roman Empire and over 1000 Years of The Byzantine Empire. Right? Well. What if the Ottomans didn't Conquer it. Maybe lasting to 1492 and Up possibly to the 1500s or 1600s MAYBE 1700s or 1800s? Well. Im getting to it. To put it Simply: Ottomans do not Conquer Constantinople and the Byzantines maybe make Colony's in North America to escape there? (back to the actual things) I know what your Thinking. "Well wouldnt the Ottomans spot a Byzantine ship?" Well little Timmy I know. But what if the Byzantines disguised as Maybe a Genoese or Papal ship? And made some Colonys. So maybe they can last. MORE SIMPLY: Ottomans Arent taking ships and At war. sorry for a lotta Yapping. I just wanna know if the Byzantines survived and You're Opinions.


Getting your things

Hi Daddy It's been just over a month since you were taken from me, and the world. I have to go and get your stuff Saturday and I don't want to. I don't want to go to your flat when you won't be there to greet me, or sit down and eat with me. I don't wanna see the window you'd smoke out of, or your chair, I don't want to see your silly lamp or see the sofa Id always sit on. I don't want to see where you were found. I will because I have to, but I don't want to see everything where you're not. Losing you has completely gutted me inside out, I don't know how to be strong like you always said I was, I don't know how to face a world when my internal clocks have stopped. The last month and a bit has been one long blur, it's felt like a life sentence already and I still have a life to go. I turned 27 Monday, I had almost a full 27 years with you and it wasn't enough. I suddenly feel 7 again, I need my daddy still, I will always need you. I'm dreading Saturday as it's further confirmation you're really gone. I had your ashes back Tuesday, and I keep staring at them - how are you in there? It seems like a cruel joke life is playing and I don't get the punchline. Dad, how do I face your flat? How do I face life without you?


TV atand for 55 gallon tank

Do yall think this TV stand can support a 55 gallon tank? It's from American home furniture and is pretty hefty at over 150lbs. 55 gallon tank is looking at over 500lbs though. I'm 220 and have stood on this to mount the tv with no sag or feeling of instability on it. It is the perfect size for a 55 gallon as the one im looking at is 55 inches long and this stand is right around 58 inches long on top.

CPU cooler thermal paste

I'm building my second computer and i could use some help. I bought this cpu cooler (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D1CGL7D1?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1) for my ryzen 7 9700x but i thought it didn't have thermal paste so i bought some and now i'm looking at the amazon page again and they do talk about thermal paste. Do i just use the thermal paste on the cpu cooler?Remove the stock one and use the one i bought? keep the one on the cpu cooler if it has some and put a tiny bit of the one i bought for good measure? any help would be greatly appreciated.

what would happen if someone opened the closet earlier?

like what if Hero or Kel opened the closet and found the broken violin, how would they react and more importantly, what would sunny see from his perspective? since he blocked it out of his mind?


Feeling the difference

My pharm originally gave me Lo-Zumandimine after being prescribed drospirenone for PMDD and PCOS. I felt great aside from some physical side effects. I slept well and my brain fog disappeared, I was so relieved. When I got it refilled this month they gave me the true generic (no name on the pack except for drospirenone) and I feel exactly the same as before I took Lo-Zu. Even had some breakthrough bleeding. My joints hurt, I want to cry ALL. THE. TIME, and I can't function at all. They're the exact same dosage but I might as well not be taking it. This was also my first time ever skipping my placebos, which I was given the option to and after the first week of taking Lo-Zu, decided I would since it was kind of hard on me and I didn't want to deal with going from "100 to 0" as my provider put it. I did have a day of breakthrough bleeding and cramping. Could my body just be weirded out that I didn't have a period this month and is having a bad reaction? I'm definitely going to ask my pharm for Lo-Zu since it's also covered fully by my insurance and the true generic is $10 per pack, but I was curious if anyone else had a similar experience. TIA <3

From Xperia to Galaxy: My Sony Farewell

The first time I saw a Sony phone was back in 2015, when a friend bought an Xperia Z1. I instantly fell in love with its sleek design, premium feel, and unique launcher. It was unlike any phone I had seen before. My own journey with Xperia began in 2020 when I purchased a used Xperia 1 (UK version). Despite the poor auto camera mode, I was amazed at the shots I could achieve with manual mode. The 21:9 aspect ratio was a game-changer for me, making it the perfect device for watching 4K movies and series. Sure, the battery life was terrible,and the fingerprint scanner stopped working and removed itself from settings after a couple of months, but Isrill loved the phone for its slim body and flagship feel, so I kept using it. Sadly, in 2023, the Xperia 1 died unexpectedly. It got stuck in a boot loop, restarting repeatedly after displaying the Sony logo. I tried every possible fix—factory reset, Xperia Companion—but nothing worked. A quick Google search revealed it was a common hardware issue with the Xperia 1. To make matters worse, I lost all my data. In the meantime, I bought a Samsung A23 as a temporary phone. It performed well, with excellent battery life, but I missed the tall, slim feel of the Xperia. So, in May 2023, I returned to Sony and bought the Xperia 1 III. This phone addressed many of my complaints, and I was happy with its Snapdragon 888 chip, which handled daily tasks effortlessly without overheating. However, the battery life was still subpar—something I reluctantly accepted as part of the Xperia experience. Fast forward to two days ago, when I encountered a new issue. My phone was at 15% battery while recording a video when it suddenly restarted. After booting back up, I unlocked the screen, and the battery dropped from 13% to 1% before shutting down. I charged it and resumed my day, but later that night, I noticed I wasn’t connected to Wi-Fi. I couldn’t see any available networks, nor could I turn on the hotspot. I tried troubleshooting by restarting the phone and resetting the network settings, but nothing worked. A Google search revealed this is another common issue with the Xperia 1 III. The only temporary fix is using Xperia Companion to repair the phone, which erases all data but only resolves the problem for a week or two. That was the final straw. I had planned to upgrade to the Xperia 1 VI, but I’ve lost faith in Sony. Both of my Xperia phones have had serious hardware problems, leaving me disappointed. I typically keep my phones for five years, as I don’t require cutting-edge specs, but neither Xperia I owned lasted even half that time without major issues. As much as I dislike the shape and size of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, I’ve decided to make the switch. At least with Samsung, I can trust the hardware to not die suddenly. My decade-old Galaxy S5 still works perfectly, which is more than I can say for my much newer Sony devices. With a heavy heart, I bid farewell to Sony Xperia. They no longer seem to care about their phones. It feels like all their attention is on PlayStation and TVs. I wanted to love Xperia, but I’m done giving them second chances. Goodbye, Sony. Samsung, here I come.

I love it but it also always gets pointed out to me as weird 😅

AITAH For telling my GF to just stay home and chill

Am I the asshole for going off on my gf? I (28 M)stay with my girlfriend (20 f) at her parent’s house. We have a complicated history that I won’t get into. We live together. I work she doesn’t. I’m an health insurance agent wfh. I spend over 8-11 hours on the phone helping senior with their Medicare. Then moment I get off my gf wants to spend time with me cool. Her parents try to be involved. They old boomer white republicans, I’m Caribbean black anti government freedom fighter. So out views are very different especially about minorities, immigrants and outlook on life and America. I tend to myself. Used to dragged to family events, forced babysitting every single Sunday, early church services. They toned tow finally in October during my busy season. I just wasn’t doing it. Like that white hallmarky shit, you can miss me with that shit. I barely get time to myself or relax. All she wants to do is “go out” “do something” tho I’m the only one bring in money. Money I don’t want to spend since we’re (really Me) trying to buy a house Anyway we get hit with snow and it ices over. My gf wants to see some girl she just met like 2 days ago at a mall bathroom. I tell her no, it’s icy out. Her parents tell her no. She has no experience driving in Atlanta unsalted iced roads. She’s stubborn and still does anyway. Wrecks her car (who wouldn’t seen that happening). So now I gotta spend my weekends, my little free time helping fix her car with her father. She throws a tantrum, still trying to figure out how to get to her new friend. Trying to get an uber, and have her friend drop her back. I’m like “bruh chill tf out and sit your ass down.” I left work temporarily to go check on you, I’m already risking my job. Next day she’s crying she doesn’t have her car. Well yeah that’s what happens. All day while I’m at work she’s whining to me about not having a car. Now she wants her friend to stay the night, I’m like nah fam. Day before the accident she gets high on old meds (she’s in recovery) I ignored her that night. I told her before “go back to that old shit, I’m out”. Prior to this we were sick with norovirus because she was “dying for raw oysters”. She gets sick, I’m taking care of her while working. I get sick, she gets better and keeps on demanding going out while I’m still sick. I took of 2 days of work. Weekend she basically just left me sick alone I’m like wow bruh. Weekend before I took her out because everyday after I get off work she wants to do something. Staying at home even for a few hours drives her insane. Part of me is so fed up with her behavior. Her parents and family basically stopped trying since they been dealing with this her whole life, left it to me. She’s upset saying oh I don’t let her do anything, I’m basically like yes because left to your own devices you cause nothing but trouble and chaos for every one else but yourself to fix. Her parents don’t expect her to fix the car, they expect ME. I’m already pissed. I went off on her basically. Now she’s pouting all pissy but still trying to do the same bullshit. Am I tripping or am I the asshole here?


Burning painful skin

Does anyone in this group get the sensation of their skin being painful to the touch? Experienced several types of pain, joint pain, burning pain(hotspots), shooting pain, sharp pain that feels like I’m stepping on broken glass, and this odd sensation of extremely sensitive skin. It often feels like acid is raining down on me when I take a shower. I’m on the long path to diagnosis I’m sure many of you are also on. I’ve been looking for answers for four years. Gabapentin has helped, but my pain still significantly impacts my life. Has anyone else had similar symptoms?
