    He has done a fire arrows one, or maybe he has commented on them, but I'm pretty sure he has dedicated a video to fire arrows. He concludes mostly that they are impractical and unrealistic.

    I knew skallagrim allready, and have had long bouts of marathonning him, I CANNOT figure out what kind of Scandinavian he is, he camouflages his accent too well! And discovered Metatron today, who reveals his Italian accent no matter how hard he tries to hide it :D I'll keep scholagladiator in mind

    Genome research is revealing a lot of convergent evolution. Falcons are not related to eagles, but to parrots and passerines (sparrows)

    In reality, it truly is very random. There is no comfortable narrative, and nature may evolve/create eagle-like beaks - or cat-like mammals - over and over and over. When one branch hits a wall and dies out, another one is created to take its place. Long before dinosaurs roamed, proto-mammals existed that were wolf-like, and hunted in packs. No movies about these animals, because they aren't very famous

    TL;DR?

    Gene research shows that animal appearance means very little in terms of evolutionary relationship. Appearance/evolution can happen very fast. For example: Parrots, sparrows and falcons are related. Eagles are not closely related to falcons, but share appearance because they evolved similar lifestyle.
    Owls are the only vertebrates I can think of with asymmetrical skulls

    Apparently, iy's an evolutionary trait, helping them to detect the origin of noises, having a pit for the ear on a low and high point of the skull

    Try googling "bezoar ibex", a type of wild goat. Do you get a FLOOD of safari hunting posing pics? A search suggestion adds "alive"... which

    Google then seems to just ignore, and still gives you a flood of dead ibexes... I hate Google. So, so, so much....
    Doing some hobby research on fossil whales, and I kid you not - *every - SINGLE* Google image search gets changed into a "did you mean - "

    Every. Single. One - NO exception, just "did you mean?" no, I actually meant *2nd click!* no, I actually meant *2nd click!* no, I actually meant *2nd click!* no, I actually meant *2nd click!* no, I actually meant *2nd click!*

    No shit, with that whole metallic voice effect he was doing, as well as destroying Gimli's favorite axe, and giving Aragorn 3rd degree burns on his fingers. Way to prank the protagonists Gandalf, yuk yuk yuk!

    When they re-meet "gandalf the white", he doesn't let them know he is who he is, but allows them to shit their pants with fear, and attack him, to which he counters by obliterating gimlis axe, and making aragorns sword glow yellow with scorching heat. Such a dick move

    Actually, it will get worse. They found their loophole, they're only going to take bigger bites. I'm still anticipating the day FIFA goes full mafia, and starts offing uncooperative players :V

    Canada will probably cooperate. Russia is another matter, but is allready a very large entity, with several ethnic groups, in semi-autonomous republics, that would found logical foundations for independent and compliant new states.
    That does it... Civ 6 is definitely way too bugged to be playable.

    correct casus bellii?
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    Hmm? Casus belli will only make you declare war. This was the only nation that was not attacking me, and for a while the only nation not at war with me (:D) I was trying to keep it that way. Some time in, however, I noticed I was at war with them, but couldn't remember having gotten that declaration message.
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    I checked their log (recent events), and saw that I had apparently declared war on them 10 turns prior, which I had not - at all!
    Apart from that, it needs serious tweaks, since I am being denounced - even attacked - for being a "warmonger"

    I don't do it with ease though, I'm far too logical. I felt bad for eating animals, because I'm too aware. I no longer see "meat", I see individual muscle-systems, I know what they are called. BUT - the same goes for plants. Every tomato I cut is some organism's genital ball-sack I'm about to consume. I really have to be careful not to go loopy :D At least I'm fair

    Gonna have to get used to Civ 6, it just triggers nostalgia for Civ 3/4 so far. In the meantime I've installed Millennium Dawn for HOI 4

    I have weed. Like 60 grams or something. Do you want me to send you some? ;)

    A friend of mine managed to IM a Belgian msn-buddy of mine, because he had "narcotic" in his hotmail address, nagging the guy for weed, behind my back, desperate to get hold of my "contacts" that I wouldn't share, because he is an untrustworthy moron (but a childhood friend... ) Several people contacted me later, asking me if/why I had forwarded this annoying Turk to them...

    The other day I went to a restaurant and they had Lobster on the menu, but the price was nowhere to be found, after like 20 minutes of asking waiters and cooks I found out the cheapest lobster they had was 60 dollars, which when converted into Colombian Pesos is waaaaaay too much for a meal.

    Lobster is like diamonds, in the sense that the luxury-value is purely artificial, and created by "highest bidder"-ism. There's an image attached, and people pay for the image. Just a century ago, lobster was seen with disdain, even stigma, as being poor-people food; undelicate, crude and without flavor.

    I reckon he's in prison. In fact he always has been but they let him have Internet access for good behaviour. Probably acts up like Charles Bronson so he's currently back in solitary.
