They're not advertising or telling people to come to lemmy.world.... people are coming here and they're just accommodating them instead of blowing them off

If you are buying a coin that's already on the market as a fully attributed coin then yeah you don't want to clean it. I buy coins that are "fresh" out of the ground so they're literally caked with mud. They look like this so they require cleaning. Properly cleaning 2000 yr old coins is a months long process involving microscope and very deliberate & precise application of effort. For some reason I find it very relaxing, almost like a form of meditation. It's a hobby that I'd love to share the results and talk about with others.
Shameless plug: You can see some of my Before/After pictures over at !ancientcoincleaning@lemmy.world :-)
Yeah, I like tech too but also enjoy cleaning ancient coins. It'll be nice if someone else found my community and it would pick up. I'm trying to post ever so often so anyone that stumbles on it will know I'm still around
Pegging Celsius to freezing/boiling point of water makes it VERY easy to calibrate thermometers. That's a huge advantage that makes it so anyone with a freezer and stove have a great reference point for calibration.
My brain refuses to accept someone voluntarily drinks their own piss regularly when they have other options readily available... If someone actually does this please post an ama... I have so many questions
Spam fries are delicious :-) Fried spam is also a great breakfast food.

What really gets me is he carves their names into a structure and adds the date. The date was 23... As if 23 means anything to a structure that was built by people who were around in the actual year 23.
That's the official story at least, but we all know what's really going on. There are 10 seasons of documentary detailing what's really happening under that mountain.
