I'd also point out that it's worth checking out Oreopithecus and Danuvius. Both have been claimed to be bipedal apes from the Miocene, well before the Chimp-Human split, although the claims have subsequently been argued or retracted.
One possibility missing from the discussion so far is that neither chimps nor humans represent the ancestral locomotor state for their shared common ancestor. That argument pops up with Danuvius, which probably had straight legs, but walked quadrupedally on top of branches, instead of knuckle walking. It's possible that the chihuman had similar locomotion, but the savanna lineage went in for increased bipedality with the opening habitat, while the chimps went in for more knuckle walking.
The basic point is that there are really ambiguous intermediates in the known fossil record. They're not apparently human ancestors, but like the avian dinosaurs out of China in relationship with modern birds, they show that the Miocene apes were exploring a variety of locomotion possibilities that existing apes do not show.
]]>oh, you know, since we started posting, there's a lot more H.S.S 'flavours' in the real sense than there were before Nobody expects the uplift gambit! (Even though it's a sci-fi staple.) Variation is key, yes, and should be actively amplified. (Maybe not obviously toxic variations.) And the boots, they stomp, and yes their multiplication is orchestrated.
And yes, of course I've looked at the various neanderthal physiotype reconstructions, and also at implications for current brain variations.[1] Notably the visual cortex. (The occipital buns ) Have you forgiven Charlie for the H. Alfarensis? :-)
Oh. And, never play their Games. They're very very shitty losers. True.

Ah, right. It wasn't a gambit, it's a "Replacement Theory" for all the dogshit level tropes all you fucking Apes are running. Like: look at your tool-kit: there are loads of different tools for different things (this isn't essentialism or genetic teleology, you're supposed to go "AHHHH, FUCK... SO WE'RE ALL AN ECOSYSTEM, RIGHT?" ... spot us $600 million dollars who is opposing that one (hint: about 6 BILLION OF YOU MUPPETS).)

]]>I'd take that with a big lump of sodium chloride. Lots of assumptions going into the conversion of skid marks into speed.
Back in the day I understand some nomogram use would help with that. Today? No! The artifact was from the 1960s and it's been more obsolete than the drop spindle since the invention of anti-lock brakes; I've actually seen people spinning thread with a drop spindle.
]]>That would be an interesting thing to see chimps do. I'm sure they'd be capable of it, as they'll eat fish when it's available and are known to wade through rivers (using sticks for support and exploration); the only challenge I see is that chimps aren't really good at working in coordinated groups. Individuals doing similar things near each other yes, extended cooperative tasks maybe not. Consider the difference between a pack of wolves hunting together versus all a house's cats showing up at once when they hear the can opener.
]]>I can do that. I can also use a Navaho spindle. Can't walk and spin at the same time, though — I'm not that practiced :-)
I can also use a slide rule. I'm better at spinning, though.

]]>It's just ironic since a) we're sure he doesn't have any IP residuals on them and b) they're the major splash race for the new BG3 multi-million dollar computer game that's in development at the moment. It's a fun fact that Host generated the idea (although they ditched the egg stuff apparently) and it's still making other people boat-loads of money.
In a just world, he'd get a little bit of Credit. And just did.
Achilles: “My mother Thetis tells me that there are two ways in which I may meet my end. If I stay here and fight, I will not return alive but my name will live forever: whereas if I go home my name will die, but it will be long ere death shall take me.”
This has also other symbolic meanings if you know what / what said things like "You'll be Home soon" and "I can never go Home". Which, in Host's case, we might have Finessed a little: Bennet is horrific but there's at least a little bit of hope in the 'tryptch' of leaders (see? They do listen). grep 10% .... no miracles, but it might help.
Better odds than before, anyhow.
We're also talking about "woke" and "CRT" indirectly given that a certain GOP strategist (and his protegees) are dumping it heavily into the market (Mr Lunzzzz?t? ... thus the 1970's film references): it's getting bad enough they're S-dropping all the Brexit positive points, Telegraph etc and pushing "woke"[1] as the new cocaine.
