Ive always been partial to Shotcut for proper video editing, but I also use HandBrake for simple tanscoding jobs.

Cheetah’s went through a genetic bottleneck somewhere between ten and twelve thousand years ago. There may have been less than ten left at one point. Dating the Cheetah Genetic Bottleneck
My totally silly theory is that humans in fact where adopting kits at that time and help saved the species, and that’s why they’re so almost domesticated.

If like Expedition with Steve Backshall you’ve got check his other works on the BBC. He did several series of Deadly 60 for kids and several Land of the … specials where he travels to other exotic locations. I saw him live talking about his travels and he took questions from kids in the audience and he’s quite charismatic and charming.

The golden age of video games was between when I was 13 and 21 years old. I was old enough to make spare cash to buy my own games and young enough to have spare time and energy to play them. Also my fast twitch reflexes were still good then so I could easily do a platformer or FPS. And this is true for everyone no matter when they were born.

Honestly “regular conservative people” are too embarrassed by the racist morons to be conservatives anymore. If you still identify with the conservative movement today you are a racist moron.

This is actually an interesting question that depends a lot on a human perspective and what you define as ‘Generally Blue’ and what’s else is in the container.
I personally would define generally blue as when you have two colours, say red and blue M&Ms, and you reach in the container to pull out 3 you have a 50/50 chance of pulling out three blues. This definition would require that you have 79.58% blue M&Ms in your container.
Honestly this sounds like a bit high to me but probably can be a real bitch, and the test sounds secure to me. Physiological I think 2/3 blue 1/3 red would have most people say it’s generally blue and the ratio would go down as you add other colours. I think 1/2 blue and 1/2 a mix of 4 or more colours people would still say it’s generally blue.

And what happens when you’ve traveled back in time and smoke your weed before you get so stoned and ask this question? 😂

You’re good people and you will make an awesome clown someday.

Johnny Bravo and the Todd from Scrubs are low key the same guy in different stages of evolution.

I love this. There is literally nothing in the world better than listening to someone talk about something they are passionate about. You are an awesome person on the lemmings and hope you don’t mind that I’ve tagged you as “Fucking loves Clowns in a good way”. And honestly it’s never too late to chase you passion. You should look around for some clowning classes near you.

I like this concept and that opening paragraph is the bomb. “Son of a bitch, I’m in.” Morty pointing meme.

I’ll definitely pop Altered Carbon on my list. I haven’t watch the series but didn’t they also have an issue with quality consistency? I often find 3rd or 4th books in series have drop in quality and the it pulls back up (The Expanse) or completely nose dove into the dirt (The Magic of Xanth).

It’s funny I started on Scalzi with Redshirts, which was good but felt like a short story that he padded out to make a novel with. I then read the Old Man Wars series and it just wasn’t for me. It felt like a slog to get through and I was about to give up on Scalzi but I figured the first Lock In book was already in my reading list on my library audiobook app so I’d give it a go, and man that turned me around on Scalzi really right in my groove. So I’ll give Fuzzy Nation a go next and see if I just don’t like the Old Man’s War series.

This one seems hard to find but I’ll put a request in at my local library to see if they can get a copy on loan from another library system.

I’ve seen this book on a lot of shelves but I never knew about the Canterbury Tales concept. I drop this in to my bookshelf buffer just on the reference alone. Although I do reserve the right to picture Dan Simons as Paul Bettany ala A Knight’s Tale.

“Inception meets True Detective” - pops the lollipop out of my mouth “You son of a bitch, I’m in.”
Yeah this sounds good thanks for the recommendation.

I found Locked In to be quite good, Recursion looks interesting from the wiki plot synopsis, like crime riff on [Replay] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replay_(Grimwood_novel)) which is a really good book and a great concept. I’ll put Recursion in my bookshelf buffer.
I love Andy Weir’s work, I’ve been a fan from his Casey and Andy webcomic days. I really liked Hail Mary but I’m more talking about detective mysteries rather then science mysteries :)
I’m a bit iffy on horror, but mostly because I haven’t read enough to be in on the tropes. I do like the idea of space horror but I suspect that it all in the execution. Thanks I’ll give it go.

I really enjoyed The Expanse - the books that is, I’m stuck in season 4 of the tv series which covers my least favourite book. But I definitely wouldn’t call it a real mystery, detective Miller and his hunt for Julie aside.
But yeah don’t miss on The Expanse series it’s excellent.
