I read from Meditations a little every day as part of my daily routine, so there's that, but I think about a lot more than just that. Recently I'm fascinated with the aqueducts.
They are quite the idea and quite the architecture wonder.

There is a diffrence between them though.
Modern roads are made to withstand vehicles which cam weigh more then everything short of elephants the Roman's had.
Modern roads are also quickly able to put down and be repaired. We also lost the recipe to Roman concrete so there is that.You ignore the fact that the Roman roads still lasted far, far longer than the modern ones do.
Basically: Roman road can handle the combined traffic of a hundred years or more before needing serious repairs.
Modern road: barely lasts a decade or less before needing a serious repair.
Drive some semi's over them for years and see how they last then.You ignore the fact that the Roman roads still lasted far, far longer than the modern ones do.

Probably pretty well, if you were to take a newly-made Roman road.Drive some semi's over them for years and see how they last then.
No, it wouldn't last at all. Trucks are the cause of at least 95% of road deterioration.Probably pretty well, if you were to take a newly-made Roman road.

Look at some photos of original Chernobyl roads, not used since the 80's. They aren't looking too bad despite being made at commie quality. The roads in use had to be remade a few times since then.
Roman roads were built ok, for their time, but what really made them last is the very light loads they were under. Also probably most of them being in mild climate, frost/thaw cycles help fuck up roads too.

Ah, thank you.Media Matters decided to go after Musk and Twitter by smearing the platform as a hive of nazis.
They did this by thoroughly gaming the algorithm to force ads to show up next to racist( or “racist”, I don’t know as I haven’t actually seen the screenshots) twitter posts, and then contacted said advertisers with screenshots of their products next to said posts.
Suffice to say, Musk is pissed.
They are a massive NGO of leftist shitheads famous for pushing censorship of everything they disagree with, and Musk got really miffed about them trying to pull off advertiser exodus on his business due to not cooperating.What prompted that?

Those which was not destroyed would still stand when our "modern buildings" become rubble.
