Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

There's a good We're Not So Different about it. The Chinese Emperor built giant ships to show off their wealth and got across to Ethiopia on Africa.
They almost certainly could have made to the West Coast of North America either open water or hugging coastlines.
They ended up scrapping them to focus internally.
Had they kept it up it could have spread their technology to Africa, Oceania and the America's. And in turn kept up with advances in the middle East and Europe.
Like it's really different timeline.
Interesting. Thanks.
