Only tangentially related but maybe interesting to someone here so linking anyways: Brian Kohberger is a visual snow sufferer. Reading about his background was my first exposure to this relatively underpublicized phenomenon.
Seconding this...also works well when I wake up in the middle of the night to get back to sleep which unfortunately seems to happen more and more every year.
You're right! Edited the post...thanks for pointing this out was actually a mistake on my part the article was about incorrect dosage which was the point I wanted to make.
Is that actually true? The U.S. was pretty damn divided in the late 60s.
Widescale race riots, Vietnam war protests, a President and Presidential candidate assassinated etc. That said a few cms or so difference and that bullet takes out Trump.
Certainly divided right now just genuinely not sure if it's quite at that level or not.
> That said a few cms or so difference and that bullet takes out Trump.
That could have been reversed. Kennedy could have lived and Trump could have been dead, either way, I was four at the time, my most recent memory from that era is the moon landing. But the depiction of half the nation as the enemy and the active tour of revenge that is happening right now is unprecedented, not even the McCarthy era - or at least, what I know of it - came close.
Or...it could be as simple as his being born in Central America and this taking place in the U.S. means they didn't have access to his earlier health records.
With flight simulators, improvements in haptics to the point where you can wear gloves to feel all the flight controls in VR will be incredible (one day?).
These books were incredibly important to me as an 80s kid. Was a voracious reader in general but absolutely loved these because they had replay value! I remember scouring through these on long family trips in the car to find every possible ending.
The parallels with modern video games are obvious.
The first video game (and one of the first programs) I wrote was a self-styled Choose Your Own Adventure on a C64 with ASCII art and maybe a total of 10 pages.
The only person who acted impressed by it was my grandmother - who had paid for the C64 - but that was enough for me.
In fact, this inspired me to buy such a book for my 9-yo son! They've grown in size, apparently (250-300 pages). Let's see how, in the age of omnipresent screens, he likes it :)
Would you expect a map of comparative latitudes to significantly change in a decade?
