TIL scissors were invented before paper!

Clearly due to a time-travelling inventor.

What did they cut? Mummies?

I would think rudimentary scissors came from shears to cut wool or hair.

In order to get practical paper, youd need the process of cutting wood to a T, which likely would have created scissors before hand if cutting has evolved to that point already.

Something new for the gameplay but I can settle for cosmetics

Hope to see some new archetypes without too much power creep.

Are you, in fact, reposting your own meme?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Shoot, did it post twice? My instance has been having some issues with federation lately I think.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I’ve had to switch instance actually - I was on a small one before and was having issues seeing my posts from other instances. Teething issues I suppose. Still, enjoying the general good vibes and camaraderie around here anyway. Makes one feel much more inclined to post and participate, rather than just lurk and feel sad doomscrolling.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Totally agree. Yeah, I've deleted a couple of posts recently to try to avoid duplicates after they didn't federate right. I'm chalking it up to growing pains.

Ah damn, I missed that it was already posted here. I got it from elsewhere.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

It’s a good meme I enjoyed seeing it a second time. Appreciate your posts man 🙏

That's the measure of lemmy's success. We're in the repost era, now.
