You mean "Descobrimentos", although that is kinda old fashioned.

They were "discovering" lands, the same way I discover Disneyland when I get there from the first time.

Also unmentioned is the disastrous intervention in the Moroccan civil war of 1580, where the teen king and most of its nobles were killed, leading to 60 years of Spanish rule. This is not at the apex of the empire, but close.

Also, Henry the Navigator downright stole or cajoled most of the "inovations" from Italian city states. For example, the Madeira island was named so by Italians, settled by some of Henry's minions.

Nah, he is still supposed to come back in a foggy morning according to the legend.

Fueled by the fact that his body was never found, so it might be that he survived and rather stay low than come back.

Well, Google just raised prices by 30% on the GSuite "due to AI value delivered", but you can't even opt out, so even revenue is a bullshit metric.

The Chinese company has outstanding loans, it's not an "acquisition" per-se. It's the Chinese supplier getting made whole.

How is that not a MITM? Just because it's the modern day CryptoAG?

Because it’s not an attack but rather a voluntary infrastructure choice by a company. We don’t say that Varnish is a MITM because it’s in front of my application, because it’s intentional and under my control. Misusing the term muddies the topic rather than adding clarity, and while there’s a very useful discussion about centralization or why Cloudflare’s most stringent customers might want to deploy their Keyless SSL service that discussion won’t happen if someone misuses the term.

Yes, but Cloudflare is not under your control, that's the point.

Yeah, "blocked" is a misleading word, if they merged anyway.

The merge was only allowed after changes.

It was real for the actors, som ehad really fled the Nazis (including the ones playing the Nazis).

What are you talking about, "free labor"? They are using the damn library, Google would benefit directly.

But they dont want to use the library.

In that case, they should not call Chrome a web browser, it's AOL all over again.

If her job is so worthless, why not go without and accept the (by definition) small diminishing utility.

This is false, having a clean house, clean dishes, cooked food is extremely valuable, but this is mot captured by money, because half of the population were basically indentured servants that were culturally expected to provide this work for free.

It wasn't for free. It was their work. Which, on average and until very recently, was much, much safer, and easier to do than the work of the other half of the population that had to leave the house and seek work to get a pay and allow the that half to stay at home.

That "on average" is load bearing, does it include Queen Victoria? Just like ICE "allows" people to stay at Aligator Alcatraz. They should be paying rent!

Of course, the indentured servants payed rent in kind, with their bodies, whether they like it or not.

> It wasn't for free

Say whaat? The woman's father literally paid good money to have her taken away. Everyone but the woman saw cash changing hands, but she was legally barred from owning property.

Freedom was for men.

Indulging for a moment that fantasy of yours about the purpose of dowries:

If the present “owner” paid “good money” to take her away, doesn’t that mean she was a liability instead of an asset?

So, are monks and nuns mentally ill?

Any condition that causes men to be so sex-starved, they take it out on kids is maladaptative, and yet it hasn't abated for millenia.
