      Very cool, but I assume it doesn't work in person. Only on video captured at some discrete frames per second.

      Education is extremely important.

        Did anyone other than me make those flip page "movies" where you would draw something on the edge of a page, make it slightly different on the next page so it looked like a guy was running, or jumping, or whatever.

        In school, it was a big thing for a while with people getting pretty creative with their drawings/stories.

            @Mik no Messerschmidts in that chart?

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                Seen on FB:

                Photographer Tony Austin recently captured an extraordinary moment during a 3-hour nature walk. As a murder of crows landed nearby, one of the crows caught his attention with its unusual behavior. Curious, Tony started taking photos—and what he documented was fascinating!

                The crow was “anting,” a unique behavior where birds land on anthills, letting ants crawl through their feathers. The ants release formic acid, which acts as a natural insecticide, fungicide, and bactericide—helping the birds rid themselves of harmful pathogens. Nature’s self-care routine at its finest!

                  That is interesting. And how do they learn these things? Instinct? Rearing?

                              I don’t really find that surprising. There’s not been a draft in over 50 years.

                                Yeah. Still interesting to see it quantified.

                                Another (though smaller) driver would be far more women in congress.
