What separates it from erectus anyway?

I haven't read the paper itself, it's paywalled and probably pretty dry stuff - but my impression is that little-to-nothing separates it, which is why paleontologists are voicing their frustration. The differences will be minute enough, to warrant careful comparisons with all known advanced Hominins in order to justify a new species

Like I said tho, taxonomy aside - even if H. luzonensis is sunk into H. erectus - or in any other way regarded as dubious - that doesn't reduce the importance of the discovery itself. Here's a nice wiki summary: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_luzonensis

I really am not sure how these things happen, it can't be just trolling, but afaik the translations are built on user interaction, kind of like Wikipedia. This isn't the first time results translate into *the polaric opposite* meaning though

Even 23 years ago, it's made into a joke in Trainspotting, when Diane just assumes the guy must be long dead, and Renton corrects her, saying the guy is still touring

He is 71 now, wrinkled skin hanging off his stringy abs, and I bet 20 years from now he will be still touring, 90 year old whisps of white hair dangling from his head

The Stooges were awesome.
Iggy seems to be whatever alien species that Keith Richards is. Every time some human takes 7 minutes off their life with a cigarette, they gain those minutes.

If I can out-of-the-blue do that just once, it has to be done well, and it'll be worth it :V

Is that guy still a thing?

But, muh rationality!

@Walpknut sadly, yes. He still makes videos.

Sounds like a prison shower.

I don't think so, prison shower kindov is the same as public pool showers or school gym showers. I'm talking about a much smaller room, with the black tiles giving a dark feel that is very underappreciated in bathrooms. Bright white bathrooms are easier to clean -

But a dark bathroom, that's goth-metal, ever showered in the dark with only a candle or two? I got so comfy, I managed to sit down and almost fall asleep. Which reminds me - I also want a chair in the shower.

Based on legit source, while not exactly very perfect intepretation it simply much better than other scattered version in google image.

That map isn't similar to Pangaea though, but I'm not blaming you, it's a misunderstanding of what Pangaea is (just the fact that there's a continent there that looks like Africa. Real life Africa would not occur untill after Gondwana rips apart)

That map looks analogous to modern Earth, more than anything - it has an Africa - it has a continent that alludes to the Americas, it has small Indian subcontinent as well as an overgrown Madagascar. It looks cool, actually (but has very little in common with real world Pangaea :D)

I like the alt history where Neandertal enslaved homo sapiens.

What kind of cuckery is that toront? Neanderthals are bigger losers than even the jewyest jew! In alt history you can't "rectify" things for historical losers! You can only dream up the glory of your peop - OHHHHH!

They were cannibals but it was their religion so it was ok.

- I had to go and find out what the spikes on a fork are called in Norwegian :D Apparently, they're "tinder" (plural of tind), which is the same word we use for mountain peaks, such as Glittertind. NOW I KNOW :O

I also just finished looking up different shades of blue, just to double-check.

I love writing too. Especially when it comes to mods for NV. I like to write all kinds of different questions, answers and responses for players to chose. It's fun.

Um, actually, the correct phrasing would be "each other"

That sounds naughty.

One can wonder "what are they waiting for", while not being rethorical about it. What - indeed - are they waiting for, whomever posesses a (at least for a time) functional nuclear warhead

The Rapture?

in front of their families, who will all be next.

What was it called when people many years ago had to hand-draw maps? Shit, I know it starts with a 'c'.

Not sure what you mean now (incidentally, I'm hand-drawing a map, made up one, but looking for good old political-map types for comparison, styles, line-work etc)

What is Cartography? I'll take Potent Potables for 200 Alex.

I always just assume they're dead

WHY

He may not be in our threads anymore, but he'll stay in our hearts.

The ones I got to spend time with were African penguins. I believe they are endangered.

large number of penguins inhabit Africa, Australia + New Zealand, or South America, since primarily they are oceanic, so long as it's southern hemisphere. While Africa proper may be hot, they'll only breed there, and spend the rest of their lives in frigid oceans

Yeah, checking a bit now, and as I suspected, Antarctica is like... "final boss"-level habitat, most penguins stick to warmer climates further north, while only a handful of badass species actually go to Antarctica itself

I used to go to modernfirearms.net, but I've gotten surprise trojans there before, and it - for some reason - seems to somehow circumvent my ad-block, so... I'm not comfortable going there anymore

Not really but the internet movie firearm database is nice.

I agree, but yeah, I woulda loved something searchable, like, models per year or something like that

With meatloaf I mix brown sugar, ketchup, and mustard to make the sauce.

Hm, haven't had meatloaf since I was in the military. All the food there was protein packed. Also - and I found this out years later - up north, where I got stationed, the food is considered a morale boost, we had a "smörgåsbord" litterally, every breakfast and lunch, salmon, roast beef slices, shrimp and mayo, you name it

I remember reminiscing about the service, since all men of 19 (at the time) go through it here, it's a quick way to bond and find things in common, and the guy reacted with laughter, as if I really joked. Apparently, in the south, they got shit, just dry bread and cheese for breakfast. He couldn't believe it when I insisted, "Salmon!?!?"
