There may be more to ancient life on Earth than we currently allow for in our academic institutions, and language may be the way we start to open the door to understanding just how far back it goes. Its the same with the cyclopian architect

I'm conflicted on this. On the one hand, its great to read more Chinese-originated articles. On the other hand, we're in the valley now folks, and there's not much hope of escaping.

Ah yes, that often amuses me too .. I've gotten the Orics "Ready" prompt burned into my eyeballs after all these years, to see the same thing in Cyrillic is kind of hilarious and triggers my inner hacker nerd every single tim

It is far more plausible for any state to accept refugees from a recognized state rather than an unrecognized one. That this fact is ignored in the debate is deplorable, but fortunately there are those working in states across the world t

One of my favourite kooks is an artist named Stanislaw Szukalski[0]. Although he had some heinously racist ideas (yeti inbreeding with humans), his art skills are unmatched, and his critical analysis of ancient art led him to develop the c

Great work! Its always very interesting to hear about the machines made behind the iron curtain, and that there is still indeed an enthusiastic scene keeping those machines alive. My favourite machine of the 80's - the Oric-1/Atm

It was. The distinct contrast between the hell of street life in LA and the wild, uninhabited, yet entirely less hostile, wild outback, definitely gave me context for a life lived, since then, in awe of the folly of humanity.

As much as I despise the feature (security), I absolutely respect the motivation to do it. I think this is why its so refreshing - one of those itches being scratched which, sure - why not? - but then again, omfg, just no.
