@bob Even the farmers still bought their tools and their clothes from vendors. Most used some form of currency to do this. You could argue much less so then modern day farmers perhaps, but the capitalism was always there. Capitalism isnt about the quantity of money exchanged, but rather the free market which allows you to do so. If fewer people participate in the free market it isnt any less of a capitalism, not unless that effect is brought about through some sort of regulation.
TL;DR even farmers had money.
Hello #QOTO, I'm also a newbie, trying to figure Mastodon out, and find out where the science minded people are hiding. Is it here?

@bob Thats not accurate though, money has existed for thousands of years, being paid to do a job has existed for just as long, and we all know slavery was popular for thousands of years too. All the points you claim are recent "money, wage, slavery, etc" are all ancient and wide spread.
@bob Not true capitalism (trade of money and goods) goes back thousands of years.
== Math Problem of the Day ==
If you have a rocket traveling vertically with only the mass of its fuel to carry, with earth sea level gravity, then, how much fuel must you carry to reach a height of 1 kilometer if maintaining a newton of thrust uses up 1 gram of fuel per minute.
Bonus: show the equation with height and fuel per time are both unknowns (variables).
@medic This is actually covered in the half-blood prince. The reason he isnt free'd is because he knows all of the orders secrets and sympathizes with the death eaters.

Agreed, as a general rule parody accounts should indicate it in their description.
@cambridgeport90
Always happy to help.
@hashtaggrammar
Not sure, it never came up before. I guess it depends on if they indicate in their bio they are a parody or not.

The hard coding is basic, just a few checks in a few places. It was easy to override with some coding knowledge.
