It's the same "science" that gives us unwanted genetically-modified foods--find something that works and FIX it.
The original design uses gravity feed, less piping, and no pumps to deliver water that is running (cleaning) all the way to delivery. The original design is cleaner, delivering a constant pressure.
You're right: the treatment plant permits ease of adding drugs and chemicals. . .
There are portions of Roman roads still in existence, and they haven't completely figured out Roman concrete technology, which may have involved heating up the mix.
I hate how modern people act like previous people were ignorant because they didn't have smart phones and TikTok.
He used the same steam engine to make one of their statues move it's arm or something when they lit the fire for the alter. He thought it was hilarious.
The priests ganged up and beat him to death later.
The last Western emperors were puppets, but the last Eastern emperor was a chad. Constantine XI died on the walls of the last Roman city, fighting Muslim invaders.
Back in the early 2000's, I remember seeing an ad in a trade magazine for I-beams made from resin and wood chips, and I knew construction was getting worse. Remember that the building codes set the minimum standard for the shittiest structure you can legally build.
Never mind just go with the mainstream narrative. The Egyptians did it and we just don't know exactly how they move large blocks, lined it up with stars, made precision measurements lined up with longitude and latitude...
Also ignore the hieroglyphs that show giants because obviously giants didn't do it.
Noah's flood destroyed all living things on land, it did not destroy all things.
You really believe the Egyptians built a pyramid that lines up perfectly with stars. Is 1/4 of a minute degree of longitude and latitude. Uses large blocks no one can explain how they moved.
The Egyptians known for the record keeping just "forgot" in their thousands of hieroglyph to explain how they moved the blocks.
Not to mention the hieroglyphs clearly show Giants.
I’m completely on board with this. I’m convinced the Egyptians, or whatever precursor civilization actually built them, had the means to soften and re-harden stone, allowing it to be transported in manageable quantities and reconstituted on site, as well as sculpted and modeled like clay
There’s no reason those two things couldn’t both be true. I’m convinced giants also existed.
I became convinced of the softened stone hypothesis when I saw a sarcophagus with “carvings” on it that, as a person with a background in ceramics, immediately recognized as having been made with a stamp
In many cities the sewage is “cleaned” and returned the city’s water reservoir. These reservoirs have been tested and confirmed to contain various drugs.
San Francisco still uses the same gravity fed system design for their emergency high-pressure firefighting water system. Almost like simple is often times better.
Water treatment plants don’t filter out pharmaceuticals before sending the water back to your faucet. So, aside from the chlorine, arsenic, fluoride, and other crap that they add to the water, there’s hundreds of pharmaceuticals as well. Go get yourself a reverse osmosis system for your drinking water.
Berkey makes great gravity filter systems. It will cost $166 for a pair of normal filters that last 3000 gallons and $79 for a pair of flouride filters that last 1000 hours, but its easy to use, clean and the smaller units are really easy to break down and take camping with you. No electricity required, you just need to clean the normal filters every 90 days or so.
"The origin of the word "plumber" dates from the Roman Empire. Roman roofs used lead in conduits and drain pipes and some were also covered with lead; lead was also used for piping and for making baths. The Latin for lead is plumbum."
Caligula wasn't toward the end. They got christian toward the end. And it was probably thanks to that that the eastern part of the empire lasted another thousand years.
It is the removal of the father. Women and gay men become the role models making the boy effeminate and therefor repulsive to the straight teenage girls. The effeminated boys then make themselves in the image of the whore mother and her gay friends, therefor receiving the validation they are searching for.
This analysis is in the right direction. However, there is a deeper more disturbing truth that must be faced if we wish to avoid destroying ourselves with another civilizational collapse in the time of nuclear and biological weapons.
Strict moral codes were created to solve a problem.However they always fail, in time, because they treat only the symptoms of the problem rather than the root cause.
What is the root cause?
Civilization (the positive sum game) is only a few thousand years old. Before that was millions of years of barbarism (the zero-sum game).
In the pre-civilization environment, through no fault of their own, women who made babies with best zero-sum game players were selected for because this was the best strategy for gene survival in that environment.
Who are the best zero-sum game players?
Those men who are completely unrestrained by conscience but who camouflage their predatory intentions are the best players of the zero-sum game. Sound familiar?
The underlying root cause of periodic civilizational collapse is the conflict between the natural selection of the positive-sum game playing “lineage of God” which strict moral codes make possible and the sexual selection of the zero-sum game playing “lineage of Satan” which thrives upon the destruction of strict moral codes.
If we understand this root cause clearly, we can develop more effective constraints to extinguish the root cause of civilizational collapse.
i.e. Moral men should stop caring about what women are attracted to and repulsed by and recognize these sexual selection preferences as the root cause of hell.
The history of all hitherto existing civilization is the history of the evolution of constraints against predation. But it is also the history of the evolution of the predator to overcome those constraints.

The Romans were on the verge of industrial revolution, with a functional steam engine and train proposal.
Unfortunately the guy got himself killed by pranking some priests, or the 1800s would have happened a lot sooner.
Was the prank worth it?
Possibly.
He used the same steam engine to make one of their statues move it's arm or something when they lit the fire for the alter. He thought it was hilarious.
The priests ganged up and beat him to death later.
I can find nothing to verify this story but I choose to believe it is true.
Herrod? Hero? That guy?
Yeah, Hero of Alexandria.
Can't find anything about his death anymore. Kinda odd since I only remember the story because of the prank and the beating.
Well , debasing the currency was the end of the Empire and debt the Republic

The last 6 Roman Emperors were faggots - RM Nixon

Blood, they added pigs' blood to the mix. Also, makes marine concrete, sets up even under saltwater. That and special volcanic ash and limestone.
The Pantheon was made out of several types of concrete- they had some genius architects and builders throughout Roman history.
That they did and many of their constructions still stand after thousands of years. Modern constructions, probably won't. Decades at best.
Back in the early 2000's, I remember seeing an ad in a trade magazine for I-beams made from resin and wood chips, and I knew construction was getting worse. Remember that the building codes set the minimum standard for the shittiest structure you can legally build.
Your going to be surprised when you hear Rome and Egypt were found and not built.
Sauce or fake and gay
The sauce will be fake and gay too.
History is written by winners. Pick through the lines and decypher truth. Something normies cant do.
Truth wins. People who hold closest to it win. Then, they write about it.
Never mind just go with the mainstream narrative. The Egyptians did it and we just don't know exactly how they move large blocks, lined it up with stars, made precision measurements lined up with longitude and latitude...
Also ignore the hieroglyphs that show giants because obviously giants didn't do it.

Sounds flat-earthy.
The pictures of old cities with no one in them is because the exposure time was too long

I don't like the soften stone theory. It doesn't line up with the hieroglyphs showing giants 2x-3x larger than the normal human.
There’s no reason those two things couldn’t both be true. I’m convinced giants also existed.

The original design had one major flaw: it couldn't be turned off if you didn't pay your protection money.
They left that to the Roman "firefighters" who'd burn your house down if you didn't pay up.
In many cities the sewage is “cleaned” and returned the city’s water reservoir. These reservoirs have been tested and confirmed to contain various drugs.
Not everyone lives below the reservoir level... Sometimes water needs to be pumped up.
Now try to do some calculations, like required concentration of these chemicals and how many trucks of these chemicals must be dumped in every hour
Does your water have fluoride?
San Francisco still uses the same gravity fed system design for their emergency high-pressure firefighting water system. Almost like simple is often times better.
How do you think they get their water from Hetch Hetchy to SF ?

How does that compare to ion exchange? I got an ion exchange filtration pitcher and it makes such crisp and pure water, I still can't believe it.
I don’t know much about ion exchange, but it sound’s pretty good. Here’s some good info on how they compare.
https://samcotech.com/ion-exchange-vs-reverse-osmosis-choosing-best-treatment-system-needs/
This. My last place we also used ozone injection as well as carbon block.
They already use reverse osmosis systems to clean water
You must live in one of the very few small towns that do it. Otherwise it’s just not feasible on a large scale.
I live in Philadelphia
You're missing the pumps that push the water back up to reservoir to turn power generators that run the pumps to push water that power the generators.
Lmao true
Imagine understanding head pressure.
How do you think female engineers graduate?
There are few that do. Also yes.
Didn't the Romans put lead in their water?
"The origin of the word "plumber" dates from the Roman Empire. Roman roofs used lead in conduits and drain pipes and some were also covered with lead; lead was also used for piping and for making baths. The Latin for lead is plumbum."
Plumber was a lead worker.
https://theplumber.com/roman-english-legacy/
They had a good understanding of plumbing. I toured Roman ruins years ago and saw that they used clay pipes as heat exchangers to heat bath water.
3000 years ago a city in India had indoor toilets with running water removal.
Somebody hiding alot from we peasants.
I thought the lead leached into the water.
Yes.
they had lead pipes.
Lead joints in water bridges.
Glad I'm on well water ;) Still Straight
I mean Romans got super gay toward the end of their reign. Just watch Caligula and tell me they werent a bunch of degenerates.
Caligula wasn't toward the end. They got christian toward the end. And it was probably thanks to that that the eastern part of the empire lasted another thousand years.
Think you forgot to add the lead in the old roman aquaducts. Adds extra flavor
"What have the Romans ever done for us?!"
Roads?
Indeed
LOL. In fairness, Camille Paglia says that rampant faggotry & transgenderism was a symptom of the collapse of the Roman empire too.
Same cyclically recurring phenomenon of civilizational collapse with the same characteristics.
One might think we would be more curious about the underlying cause so that could put an end to it.
