@memfree As far as I understand it, ocean eels are less of a problem, but freshwater eels are in increasingly short supply. Either way, I like this as an alternative.

There’s some pretty big TVs on the market these days, and even projectors are a LOT cheaper than they used to be. It’s really not that expensive to put together a decent home setup, and it’s only getting cheaper every year.

There was also the series Total Recall 2070, but that was more of a mashup of Total Recall and Blade Runner.

Jack Black’s first theatrical film was Bob Roberts in 1992. He was in a tv movie called Our Shining Moment in 1991. TV series debut was in The Fall Guy in 1984. First commercial was for Pitfall on Atari 2600 in 1982.

Most of that decade doesn’t include the actors though. Zoe Saldana was in both Avatars and still had time to do several Marvel movies in between.

Cloud seeding is a real thing. It’s also incredibly expensive. Bill Gates would be broke in a year or two if he did it at commercial airline scale.

What happened to the Kruger Millions? My cousin used to live near the Blyde River Canyon, and he would always have a story about a new group of treasure hunters who were sure they had figured it out. Obviously, no one ever did. And then a couple years ago, some coins from the era turned up in a Swiss bank vault. So did someone find the treasure? Was it ever actually buried in South Africa at all? WHO KNOWS!

I’m very happy with this comment. It has helped me immensely.
