1. They pyramids of Giza and the pyramids of Teotihuacan both align
perfectly overhead to Orion's Belt. There are further monuments at
Teotihuacan that also align with other stars beyond Orion.
2. A 15 year old boy found a lost Mayan city by overlaying star maps
over ancient temples. "X" marks the spot.

3. How did ancient man calculate with exact precision, immense monuments
that line up perfectly overhead to stars in the sky?
4. *Why* did ancient man line up immense monuments who's precise
alignment appear to match stars only to those FLYING above?
5. How did two civilizations separated by time and thousands of miles
create similar monuments that both aligned to the same stars without
knowledge or communications with eachother?

I'm just asking questions.
Yes, humans are intelligent.
Archaeologists and historians are afraid to connect the dots are ask the
obvious questions because doing so threatens the past work their
current beliefs are based on.
The almost exact similarities with archaeological structures spanning
the globe (construction methods & building shapes), belief systems,
religious themes (men from the sky, floods, creation myths, etc.), and
culture can't be explained away by coincidence IMO.
If we can rule out aliens and conclude smart humans, we should then ask
why civilizations, written history and monuments didn't appear before
10,000 BCE. Homo sapiens emerged in Africa around 300,000 years ago...

Civlizations are 5k years old but homo sapiens are 300k years old.
From 300,000 to 300 BCE...what kinda freaky carnival circus was going on
with homo sapiens that all of a sudden 5k years ago they started to
commune and farm?
Were they living on ice where nothing grew? Were their asses being
chased too frequently to stop and smell the roses? Did they decide
to walk upright? Were they domesticated by ET and observed how to
behave as a society?

#33 That's what I'm saying.
If we extended the "humans were always great builders of civilizations",
we could then go down some roads. One road that you cited is
flood/ice/uninhabitable earth. With that we can say that humans may have
had a limited ability to convene and learn from each other to evolve
their civilization.
There's another intriguing road: great civilizations have come and gone
but were lost. Spooky and cool. Did they escape earth with rocket ships
and evolve elsewhere? Are *they* the aliens visiting earth? Or did they
just die out and or were their cities now under water? So many
questions. Were they more or less advanced than we are? Did they have
intriguing customs, languages, myths, inventions, etc?
What we do know is that we find ancient homo sapiens buried with simple
tools and that there is cave art, which by the way experts claim the
oldest is 35,400 years old. What were the ancient men portraying?
FUCKING ALIENS. Space ships, aliens, weird shit and of course, animals
and hand prints.

#40 Those entities depicted were NOT Chinese. Ears, nose, eyes very
different. Humans don't have giant wrap around eyes...
The way they were depicted, the scale of the depictions...only to
deliberately bury them and set them on fire...those people were deathly
afraid of the "gods". 3,000 years ago. Just incredible. And yeah, that
wheel. Out of context it could represent anything but given the context
of those entities, it seems pretty obvious to me.
It really could be a sun wheel but it could also be a mag wheel from a
Olds 442. When we step back and look at artwork from the Sumerians, to
the Greeks, Romans, Mayans, Persians and so on we see flying discs.
The Zoroastrian god Ahura Mazda wasn't the only one depicted with wings
and a round disc juxtapositioned. The Mayans put their gods in space
ships!
Oh - did you notice some of the 3,000 year old art work from China had a
very strong resemblance to the Mayan art?

Thor Heyerdahl would be proud of all this. And yes, I agree.
Zorastrians temple has a big fire in its center. I know a few and
they have a house they've turned into a temple. It's pretty interesting
stuff. What's even more fascinating is that Iranians consider Mazda
a national symbol and wear the necklace but if you get down to it most
of them are Muslim...the majority of Zorastrians are Parsi (Not Farsi)
and came to Iran many centuries ago from India.
Old civilizations...

Here's a good one. Why is the Book of Enoch (great-grandfather of Noah)
rejected by Jews and Christians? It's central to many biblical stories,
yet non-cannon.
I would think that fallen angels, giants, "the watchers" and UFO's would
be good reading! (sarcasm) Many of these ideas are making Disney (under
Marvel) hundreds of millions of dollars.

This Japanese Sega arcade game from 1985 called, "I'm Sorry" features 3
bad guys: A CIA "man in black", O.J. Simpson, and Michael Jackson.

I'm not kidding. It's actually a fun and challenging game but the stage
two villains are racist as f. I never got to the 3rd level. I wonder who
the villains are.

I don't know what the point of that game was but I felt like I was

Ha ha ha ha yes indeed
I remember the arcade strategically located next to the High School had
a slice of pizza and a coke for $1. That's almost unimaginable now. And
so many quarters in the Star Wars, Pac-Man, Tron, Crystal Castles,
Mappy, Q*Bert... all the burnouts playing Stargate/Defender. I would die
almost instantly with that game. I ended up owning that cabinet
(someone *gave* it to me around 2000 if you can believe it). I'm pretty
ace at that game now. (pretty sad really) LOL
For some strange reason, my brain just jumped to those Russian clones of
the British ZX Spectrum. I wonder how video games were played in Soviet
territory. Maybe one day I'll visit the "Museum of Soviet Arcade
Games"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum_of_Soviet_Arcade_Machines
My brain just jumped again to bootleg VCR players in North Korea and
episodes of "Friends" being smuggled in. See, Americans don't really eat
their babies. They eat take-out Chinese food and drink expensive
coffee.

If you were playing Sea Battle in Jordache jeans in USSR then you were
the son/daughter of somebody at the top of The Party. That just didn't
happen, comrade.
I can't remember how many kopecs I put on the Kblo6epT (QBert) machine
in between tending the field and studying for the chess championships.

If you ever wanted to load a Commodore Vic 20 cartridge image from a
floppy disk on a real machine, I wrote a guide on how to do this:
https://distantdark.com/2022/02/06/commodore-vic-20-2-rom-cartridge-
files-launch-from-a-d64-image/
It's actually a really difficult problem because most of the cartridges
are split images and the images are assigned to different memory blocks.
These games should be preserved and so far, it's quite difficult to play
them, even with emulators. With this method, you can create a disk
image with the rom images and run them on either a real machine or an
emulator.
#vic20rabbithole #jupiterlanderrocks
There were many more interesting Vic 20 games than even I was aware of,
especially those created by Sierra.

Nothing like a "dodgy SID to SID" setup.
That guy...it's like someone plucked Al Jourgenson (from Ministry) from
1985 and placed him into 2007. He's committed to the role too which I
fully respect.
The intro music is total shoot-em-up video game territory. Nice.

When I think about how advanced the Amiga was when it came out (1985) -
so much more advanced than the PC or Mac, it's almost astounding that it
was left behind. It had higher resolution, color (!), incredible
software & sound capabilities and expand-ability (like RAM). People
like to glamorize the Mac's impact on history while ignoring the Amiga
as if it never existed. It's really interesting and sad.
It's like that with all Apple products. People like to say that Steve
Jobs invented the smartphone. The obvious reality is that he was just a
CEO and didn't invent anything. But beyond that, there were smartphones
on the market years before the iPhone came out. What did a 2007 iPhone
do that a pre-existing Blackberry or Palm Phone not do?
This is all cult territory. The establishment and the left cult used to
be separate entities. Now they are merged together. The left cult and
the establishment loves to LOVE anything apple and apparently they can
write and rewrite history.
