No, but I admire the people who can memorize, recall and communicate by using the little pictures without the slightest effort. ๐Ÿ˜”

Why do people add 'rule' after post titles?

"Syndrome of delusional companions is the belief that objects (such as soft toys) are sentient beings." Wait so does Calvin have this?

Yes, there have been bows that are long, but not like the longbow. As you say, the longbow was used to shoot volleys, while the yumi could also be used on horseback. The longbow had a very heavy draw weight, around 90-120 lbs. That's the weight you have to pull to get it at full draw. The yumi possibly had a a lower draw weight (although Korean and Mongolian and Turkish composite bows had draw weights of around 100 lbs as well, and they were mainly used on horseback). Again, the yumi has a shorter lower limb which meant it could be used on horseback (and it was) while there is no way a longbow could have. So the longbow and the yumi are very different technically.

FTFY: Longbow was the main battle weapon of the English. Yumi was the main battle weapon of the samurai.

Idk what's going on but it's only slow when I'm logged in. I think a similar thing is happening on another website, but just that one other website. I haven't disabled the add-ons in Firefox, but they're not activated (uBlock, Privacy Badger, Consent-o-Matic).

Cheers, good to know I'm not just imagining things. As a side note, I'm mainly using Lemmy on desktop, haven't used it on mobile for a while.
