TIL: There were more than one species of homo sapiens on the Earth at once. For example, the 1 meter tall "hobbit" homo sapiens found in Flores Island, Indonesia. (But if homo sapiens is a distinct species, how could it have several species? Don't know, read it in The Economist, maybe the non-paleontologist journalist got his biology terminologies mixed up).


They got it wrong. The "hobbits" of Flora are another distinct race under the species Homo Sapiens.

Species>Race>Ethnicity

When people say "there is only one race, the human race" they are dead wrong. There are multiple races, but one species.

Research indicates that is likely we are apart of a vast neural network called the collective consciousness

and it can be based on this research that it is entirely likely that you are picking up some of your knowledge through the people around you

without a word or a book being shared

And they can track cruisers. And they can fly at well over 1,000 m/s. And they have a HUGE amount of EHP.

There shall be quite a few interesting deaths when these come to Tranquility.

16 KM all the way. Orbits at 2,200 m/s.

I think I'm going to try get a huge buffer fit, and go back with a polarized weapon to see his true damage.

Research shows just the opposite. The masses are asses. The larger the collective, the dumber everyone gets.

McDonald's profits were way down in 2014. Customers spent more per person, but a lot less customers came in. Apparently nobody likes bad food anymore. Old CEO fired, new CEO has to come up with a new plan, fast.

You have at least 4 different types of histamine receptors in your body.

H1 - I forgot this one already =/
H2 - Is in your stomach and helps regulate acid production. Hence some antacids like Zantac are antihistamines (Specific to H2 receptor)
H3 - Forgot this one too.
H4 - In your brain, thought to help regulate activity and dormancy (why benadryl makes you sleepy)

Benadryl is nonselective and hit all of them, hence drowsy antihistamine. "Non-drowsy" ones avoid the H4 receptor.
