Newly deciphered passages from a papyrus scroll that was buried beneath layers of volcanic ash after the AD79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius may have shed light on the final hours of Plato, a key figure in the history of western philosophy.

In a groundbreaking discovery, the ancient scroll was found to contain a previously unknown narrative detailing how the Greek philosopher spent his last evening, describing how he listened to music played on a flute by a Thracian slave girl.

Despite battling a fever and being on the brink of death, Plato – who was known as a disciple of Socrates and a mentor to Aristotle, and who died in Athens around 348BC – retained enough lucidity to critique the musician for her lack of rhythm, the account suggests.

Wow you suck at the flute, slave.

The text also reveals that Plato was sold into slavery on the island of Aegina, possibly as early as 404BC when the Spartans conquered the island, or alternatively in 399BC, shortly after Socrates' passing.

“Until now it was believed that Plato was sold into slavery in 387BC during his sojourn in Sicily at the court of Dionysius I of Syracuse,” Ranocchia said. “For the first time, we have been able to read sequences of hidden letters from the papyri that were enfolded within multiple layers, stuck to each other over the centuries, through an unrolling process using a mechanical technique that disrupted whole fragments of text.”

It's like Democrats pretending their goal isn't a total ban on all guns

Bonus seethe after my last post: https://rdrama.net/h/redscarepod/post/266672/i-pissed-off-all-the-wiggers

you seem mad that you got made fun of online

Sure Jan

how are you gonna make fun of people for being white and then hit me with a brady bunch reference man

I'm making fun of them for being white and caring about rap beefs lol

At least edit out the fact you're the OP getting clowned on.

Not your personal army.

I made a joke about wiggers, they got offended lol. People here can't handle mild banter.

What banter? You didn't even show what you posted to get these responses? (Not an invitation).

You said something you probably knew would get a rise out of people, you got a rise out of people, then you skulked off to your safe-space to point and laugh at the people who got mad at the thing you knew they'd probably get mad at?

Pathetic.

I struck a nerve in you, huh?

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

(Lemmy only keeps the removed comment contents in the public modlog for 24 hours)

(note that modlog comments are not in any particular order, except for the order the lemmygrad jannies got around to deleting them, usually after banning someone)

Is panned_cakes arguing with the lemmygrad mod directly here?

"You moderate a voice chat full of literal kids"

It was removed for "wrecking"... what does that mean?

Panned_cakes is a very active hexbear user, posting frequently, often to [email protected]. A lot of the posts are bardtier intellectualized rants, but a bit more intelligent.

https://hexbear.net/u/panned_cakes

He seems dedicated enough as a reddit type that takes himself seriously, which makes me think he might be onto something

anyway he also posted a bunch of that lemmygrad mods removed for being "reactionary"

panned_cakes goes on to declare himself a conspiracy theorist, and promote "disinformation free" threads.net

[I have become completely distracted from reading the lemmygrad modlog at this point ]

Yes, Threads supports activity pub I didn't know that!

[back to the gulag]

People on lemmygrad (well, mainly Leftcommunist1918) LITERALLY cannot stop talking about man vs bear, and in real time are getting jannied:

If you check the lemmy.ml modlog, it's full of people getting really heated about man vs bear, and a bunch of leftist nerdy men being like "this is the last straw. I was only ever nice to women, and yet I see their kind choose bear???"

One of my friends/neighbour went on a date with the same guy for the 14th time in 3 months. They talk all the time on the phone,keep each other updated on their days and she was pretty sure he’ll ask her to be her girlfriend but he didn’t.
