Or just as advanced as we know they were.

No reason to act as if they couldn't have built them with the ancient tools and technology that is in museums today.

When you reconnect to a game your computer has to calculate everything that has happened from the players' inputs.

In other games you just get the status quo.

Or, people could actually afford the products they are producing, thus increasing revenue, creating jobs and getting people out of welfare.

According to your logic we should pay people less than a starvation wage so the rest of the people is better off. Might as well reintroduce slavery.

What do you wish there was video footage of? by Chandyman in AskReddit

'None of the other pyramidion's found had gold caps therefore none others do'.

Since none have been found and the evidence is so sparse it's not reasonable to believe that there were any gold caps on pyramids.

No real defence lines set up and large scale assault from all sides.

Many, but not all pyramids have burial chambers with a sarcophagus inside.

The Valley of the Kings was only started to get used for royal burials about 900 years after the pyramids of Giza were built.

In essence: No gilded pyramidia of the old and middle kingdom were ever found.

The only evidence that there might have been any is a partial 6th dynasty inscription from the pyramid complex of queen Udjebten.

Since the text is incomplete the inscription might just as well be referring to the tip of an obelisk, and not a pyramid.

The pyramids are constantly studied. There is an official research team on site that has their own facility.

Just in recent times they remeasured the pyramid's size and used Muon tomography to discover hidden chambers within, just to name two things.

But the main focus lies on the workers' villages at the moment, where there is lots of new things to discover.

Which is actually better than just doing things over and over again just because laymen refuse to look at or dismiss the evidence that already exists.
