The coconut nut is a giant nut
If you eat to much you get veeery fat (very fat) The coconut nut is a delicious nut,
But most of all it's not a nut!

It's the cocofruit (it's the cocofruit)
From the cocotree (from the cocotree)
From the cocopalm family! (Ayayayayay)

What about 'em? I don't know what about the US. They were still colonising, so they fall under the canopy of age of colonialism.

Nationalism, because many now-countries underwent the process of nation building. The focus went from being ruled by a monarchical house to being grouped with people of the same ethnicity, however that is understood.
This describes any settler nation but also Italy, Germany, everyone in the Balkan region.

I forget the "industrial revolution" which is also a parallel era-defining development.

My opinion: Age of ...

  • Discovery: 1420 - 1600
  • Colonialism: 1600-1980
  • Enlightenment: 1720-1800
  • Revolution: 1770-1850
  • Industrial revolution: 1750-1900
  • Nationalism: 1800-1920
  • Decolonisation: 1950-2000

Btw, the German Wikipedia article for "Victorian era" literally says: "In British history, the Victorian Age (also known as the Victorian Era) usually refers to the long period of Queen Victoria's reign from 1837 to 1901."
That's why I'm making all this fuzz, cause it's not universal. Sorry for rambling.

I think the "Victorian era" is only valid, when talking about English history.

For European history, I would use "Napoleonic era", "age of revolution", "age of nationalism", for world history probably "age of colonialism".

Ich dachte immer, das Wort „verunglückt“ beinhalte verstorben. Aber laut Bericht hat er nur „leichte Blessuren“ erlitten.

Ich finde Autorennen so hirnrissig. Die Geschwindigkeit ist ja schon gefährlich, aber das gefährlichste ist meiner Meinung nach der Kampf um Position und die Manöver.

Honestly, no. I only ever have singular moths or ladybirds or stinkbugs that fly in when I open the window. They're easy to catch and set outside. Some spiders here and there. Maybe house flies in the summer, but not too many.
I've read about protecting your sugar from ants on the internet, but have never heard about that from people irl and never seen the need for it.
I live in a brick house, not a wood frame house, which might be the explanation.

Cato sprinkled it in every time: "Furthermore I'm of the opinion, Carthago should be destroyed" until he got his third punic war.

Later, when Carthago was destroyed, the Romans poured salt over the ruins. It was a symbol that nothing shall grow on this soil again.

what is this rock? (infosec.pub)
submitted 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by wieson@feddit.org to c/whatisthisthing@lemmy.world
 

A brittle rock made of glitter. It breaks in this linear fashion and can be pound into sand by a mortar and pestle.

Anyone got any clues?

Edit: Thanks for all the answers. I found it in Romania and after searching for forums of minerals from Romania, I got a few other clues.

It isn't conclusive to me yet, but the possibilities are:

  • Pyrit
  • Mica
  • Schist
  • Nagyágit
  • Calaverit
  • Sylvanit

Of these, Mica and Sylvanit fit the best (imo).
