Comment on How were maps created back in the day?
snowydroopz@lemmy.world 5 days agoOh fuck off mate, anything “back in the day” just means before tech, if you wanna pick a specific timeline, go for it, but thats cause you wanna talk about a specific timeline. You can answer the question through any pre-google maps timeline and no one would question you for shit, this isnt your prof. history class, it’s some dude that prolly just had a wank and mid post nut clarity went “how the fuck did me great granddaddy get around the country?”
As for methods, same basic concept as my first question, answer with whatever knowledge you have, but mapping, 95% of the time would be how to get from your hour to trader joe’s.

Please step down from your high horse.
“Before tech” and “great granddaddy” and “local Trader Joe’s” are 3 different time periods. Sure they could’ve just chosen one, but it might not be what OP was curious about.
An individual who’s curious enough to ask the question would probably be curious enough to further drill down to a specific time period that they’re curious about. This could have led into good discussion.
If you want something that just tells you an answer and doesn’t question you or ask you to clarify, then you can use an LLM. If you want conversation, you can use Lemmy.

My brother in christ, maybe asking a broad question shows his lack of knowledge…yk what also helps to create new knowledge as a noob? Asking fucking questions and having people teach you, you twat.

Okay i understand what you mean, when I said that I meant it in a way, their question isnt broad in a negative way, it’s broad in a very normal question type of way, so you can’t blame him for asking a normal question, it may be broad to an expert, but if he was an expert he would be answering, not asking.
