For anyone doubting the debauchery in the Epstein files, consider what history tells us about Rome and emperor Maxentius.
>I have no idea if this allegation in the Epstein files is true… I immediately thought of one example, reported by the Church historian Eusebius in his “Life of Constantine.” He describes the behavior of Emperor Maxentius—who controlled Rome—before the Battle of the Milvian Bridge with Emperor Constantine, in AD 312. Before the battle, Constantine received a vision of the sign of the cross in the sky and was told “In this sign, conquer.” Meanwhile, his pagan opponent was cutting open pregnant women and examining the entrails of babies. Yes, you read that correctly.

I agree post 200 Rome especially was cooked. The writing was on the wall however even in 0. I feel Jesus was as much a test to Rome as it was the Jews and they failed. Jesus would have found another way to die for us but the Romans capitulated to weak fucking jews when they owned the world.

jews were punished for their role in the Crucifixion by being cursed to be a people without a home, a godless and cursed people who would by their own actions cause themselves to be rejected from every quarter for as long as they wandered

Romans were punished for their role by being turned into italians
@Dudebro @Bunsen It is my opinion that the expansion of The Roman Empire, with its logistics and roads, was divine providence to allow for proliferation of The Gospel. “The Jews” were prophesied to reject Him, and most of those in power and the climbers and strivers who knew better did as well. If it hadn’t been for Rome, the temple leaders would have found a way to do it themselves, although prophecy (psalm 22, see my pinned post) suggests it would be a strong occupying force.
it was a little NA 1.9 so i think it was like 5.5 pounds compression tops. it just didn't need all that much energy to get it going and had tall gears, i think GM pulled the 5 speeds off a much larger and more powerful car because the thing was indestructible

the one thing i hated was that GM neglected to drill oil drainback holes in the pistons to save like $5 per car and de-incentivize people hanging onto the car and not buying new, so oil coking got terrible after 80k or so. spent way more time than i like to think about doing seafoam shenanigans to keep oil consumption in check. some people pulled the engine apart and drilled them according to the original plans and it worked like a charm, apparently
Yeap.
Only way around that rule is a diesel, which NOx wasn't really regulated until recently - and even now, it's post-treated rather than trying to make the engine stop producing it.

Old chevy 6.2 diesels got 21mpg (in a squarebody) because they were running 23:1 compression (16:1 is standard for a diesel)
