This is half as interesting

it wouldn't be a wendover video without a plane/flight reference

I wonder if this guy VATSIMs.

I also make videos like this. Please have a look :)

I kept skipping past the adverts I never noticed one 😐

Yeah, it really isn't. I feel like the standards here are much different.

SO many treaties...

WTD Productions I

I love Paris.

WTD Productions i

It's half the length of wendover productions......

because half the video is commercial.

That's right as well!

because other channels are not half as interesting

Modesty on this guy's part I guess

typically French, they do treaties and then retreaties, that's why there are so many.

keedt lol

France we surrender isis Allah arkbar France you can live here if u want

Nah Trump just has to stop saying no

Yeah

They're around in some parts of Australia too. Depends how flat the farming land is, I suppose. England's very hilly; while US, South Africa and Australia have lot of flat open plains.

Well, it also depends greatly on how arid the area is, as that style of irrigation is far more efficient and easier to manage in dry regions. In wetter regions, it's not used nearly as much.

Ink Panther immediately after seeing that intro I had to pause and check to see if anyone was going to mention that

Mozilla is going to go the way of big corporations. They kicked out their CEO because of donated to Christian groups, so they don't really respect the 1st amendment. Firefox has been dumbed down to try and take on the mainstream Chrome audience too. I don't see their future.

Three Reichs and You're Out! There is a future dude, Firefox has not been dumbed down I'd rather prefer the term optimised.

This is going to sound like a nutjob conspiracy theory, but I hope none of it is true. Basically, after Google released Chrome in , Firefox' popularity started to rapidly decline, in late 2011 Chrome actually overtook Firefox. Mozilla, of course, didn't like it, because their revenue largely depends on their user base (remember that they get up to 90% of their money from search sites like Yahoo for making them the default choice). In fact up to late 2014 (that's after the Snowden leaks, btw) most of their money came from big evil Google lol, but I digress here. So, someone on their marketing team noticed that there's a growing demand for privacy on the net (which I of course fully support), and they decided to capitalize on that. And to do that, they've adopted this really shady strategy of pointing at their competitors (namely Google and Microsoft) and saying "Heeeeeyyyy, they collect your data and then use it to make money", subtly implying that they should use Mozilla software as it respects its users' privacy. Of course, they somehow forget to share the fact that their revenue now comes from Yahoo paying them to get access to their users' data such as their browsing habits and search requests. Plus, they now have gained (or at least their marketing team thinks so), to dismiss a lot of reasonable and sound technical criticism. Like "Firefox on macOS is a huge battery hog" - "BUT IT IS THE ONLY BROWSER THAT RESPECTS YOUR PRIVACY" as if they somehow imply that their users must give something up in order to get their privacy. Guess what, Vivaldi does the same thing as Mozilla to get their funding, seems to respect my privacy as well, but it does not turn my laptop into a heat gun. This all just makes me sad. Mozilla does a lot of good things, things that are good to all of us. But sometimes they just turn it into "Get the facts"-ish competitor-bashing infomercial campaigns. They will notice the slightest change of Google's privacy policy, but will miss the fact that your CPU is a black box with a mind of its own that's under Intel's complete control. I honestly do not want to make them look like bad guys, but again, this makes me sad. tl;dr: This is all infomercials capitalizing on the post-Snowden demand for privacy and should be taken with a huge grain of salt.

Gregory Khvatsky I’ll continue to use Firefox though just because they have the “open and switch to new tab” feature lol

TheJzoli Noticed that too

So glad I'm not the only one, thank you!

It also has a lot to do with the fact that Thomas Jefferson had a lot of influence on this surveying system and he was big on Enlightenment policies of rationalizing everything including plot shapes.

Sam George oh yeah, from mercantilism

Sam George however, as far as you go southeast, they'll become disorganized like in britain

Aye, because the french colonies were organized under the seigneiurial system...which was quasi-feudal.

well the channel is called "half as accurate"

Wave you mean segue? ;) But ad segway sounds cool, too

not really either way those would still be fields in the middle of nowhere

I just don't understand this cult-like religion people have for public transportation. What other obsolete technologies are they also in favor of? Do they want to get rid of indoor plumbing and bring back outhouses and chamber pots? What about ditching electricity and going back to simple kerosene lamps? Typewriters? Rotary Phones? Even during the late 19th century "Public Transit" was something only the rich and white collar workers could afford. The poors got to live 12 to a room and walk everywhere. Yay. The population density of New York today is about 27,000 per square mile. In 1893, according to the sources I can find, the density was over 3x higher, 91,000 per square mile. London was 4x denser than it is now. The sort of densities needed are both expensive and unhealthy. Cars replaced transit for the same reason electricity replaced candles. Sure you can cook the books to make candles look better than electric lights, but at the end of the day people know which is superior for their needs.

Didn't many Germans settle Pennsylvania way before the independence of the USA?

sion8 Yes, around that time and after.

+Owen Concorde So probably that's why they look like that.

sion8 A lot of Germans settled in Pennsylvania even after independence. Some of the governors in 1800s couldn't speak English well. Their first language was German.

+Great Wolf I'm not discounting more German people coming after independence, I'm just saying that pre-1700-whatever-year-he-said Germans came to Pennsylvania explaining its German character and also why the grid system may not have effected that state.

Well, by U.S. standards we call it whatever Louisiana wants to call it

As with most things American with which ignorant Europeans have a problem, more than likely the Americans are still calling it what the original settlers called it and it was the Europeans who somehow changed, not the Americans. One can think of several examples like this.

That's the damn imperial system

Like typing „than“ instead of „then“ 😉.

It was more efficient

Slowdown It's not Xmax.

Iowa is this sorta organization taken to an extreme. The state is split into 99 (formerly 100 but one went bankrupt and got annexed by a neighbor) uniformly sized counties of a very specific size. The County Seat (where the county courthouse is located) is required to be placed as close to the center of each county as possible. The capital of Iowa was also placed relatively centrally. The idea was, back in horse and buggy days, nobody would live more than a day's round trip by carriage from their courthouse to attend to business. If you had to go to the courthouse, you could leave in the morning and be back by supper time as opposed to other states where such a chore could take some people over a day's trip to the courthouse. Iowa is also one of the few states that doesn't have a gerrymandering problem because they've been easily able to computer-draw the district lines fairly since the 80s because of how the counties are set up.

Tobberz here in America with ALLLLLL this land to ourselves efficiency is key unlike Europe with so many smaller countries
