At this point MySpace is more relevant today than Craigslist. At least some people still talk about MySpace.

God. Whenever I see a reference to MySpace that Tila Tequila song pops up into my brain:

I ain't tryin' to fuck ya man
lookin' at my myspace, lotion in his hand
when he look at you, he be thinkin' 'bout me
Take your Benz back bitch now I got the key!

The post shares a sepia photo of a 1st-century BCE Roman lead boiler and pipe system from Villa della Pisanella in Boscoreale, Italy, preserved intact by the 79 CE Vesuvius eruption, highlighting Roman engineering ingenuity.

This hypocaust boiler, used for underfloor heating in elite villas, demonstrates advanced hydraulics with solder joints and valves, akin to contemporary water systems but reliant on wood-fired heat.

Excavations in 1904 revealed the villa's luxury features; peer-reviewed analyses in the Journal of Roman Archaeology affirm its rarity, with calcium carbonate linings likely reducing lead leaching health risks.

I heard it was 3.7 cents cost per penny, not 37 cents.
