Doesn’t the fact that something can evolve suggest that it is alive?

The problem is that our definition of life doesn’t even apply uniformly to all things we consider living.

Are they the ones that can basically hibernate indefinitely?

Lots of microbes do live in extremely hostile environments. Underwater volcanic steam vents, extremely acidic pools, the driest places on Earth. There’s nowhere humans have explored that wasn’t thriving with some form of extremophile.

While not a peaceful utopia, there was some stark differences between European and Native American violence beyond just the advanced technology. Most tribes weren’t obsessed with imperial expansion and subjugation like the Europeans were.

Sad? I think those are beautiful. Wish I could go photograph it in that state of decay.

Yeah, it was instantly clear that he was pretending to play a lot of those in the video. Certainly possible he recorded the all in a studio - especially since most instruments were played only for a bar at most - and maybe he was just hamming it up for the camera, but I doubt it.

What crappy timing on my part. I’ve never paid for Prime, but about a month ago they offered me yet another free trial and of course I took it - why not?

Oh Sweet Jeebus. Screw that asshat.

I really liked Invasion for some reason. Never understood why it was panned.

Cool. You never know if the color of Cate Blanchett’s shoes or the players on the 87 Slought Jets might mean the difference between life and death in a post-apocolyptic world. Who knows, maybe food will be rationed by who knows the most obscure trivia. Better safe than sorry.

We’re talking about using the information in a survival situation. I enjoy falling down a wiki rabbit hole as much as anyone, but there’s a good 50% articles on there that have zero educational value.

There’s so much useless information on wiki. Why would you want it all? Its not like storing the data on an SD is going to make it searchable. You’d be better off just grabbing the most pertinent information, though its not like you’d actually be able to produce penicillin in a doomsday scenario like this.
