i can optimize a system for negligible results all night until it runs smoooth and purrs like a kitten

Wait, is that purring a destabilized fan? I'll have to get back to you.

I have Elite: Dangerous. I literally built a 6D motion sensor headtracking rig with IR diodes and a modified PS EYE. 30 hours of config later I had the P E R F E C T config, so I moved on to new games.

Balancing the insane ADS in Cyberpunk 2077 by manually editing core files while battling 150+ mods, now that's what I call enjoyable gaming!

I build my desktop setup from Debian base so I can be more offbeat than the arch crowd.

Have you ever tried to challenge the system and see what happens if you don't click restart?

I’m to tired to make quality posts.

There's room for shitty posts too. 🫂

Made just a few years after the Roswell incident, it gives an early view on the phenomena and some of the pop-cultural impact. Nothing in here that haven't been discussed to death since, but it's a curious look at a different time with perhaps many of the same questions we have today.

This seems ripe for digging, one statement I saw from someone skimming through was "Apparently we've been shooting down UFO's since the 50's."

Political Affairs - Outer Space - Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO's) [07/1977-12/1982]

This shows a world map with archived sightings. There's a lot of flaws to it, areas with no activity doesn't mean no sightings - Just no data. Sighting density seems to align with population density and so on.

But still very interesting to browse what is available.

Found this, unknown origin but cites sources so thought it was worth a share.

Without any supporting evidence, the fact that he was a high level official in a government agency actually speaks against his credibility to me. I wish they'd present some evidence, documentations...

I give money to cashier, change comes out of coin dispenser. I say "Looks like I won again!", cashier dies a little inside.

Every time.

While the provided list is more of an example than anything, I have the impression there is countless historical records of possible sightings - From ancient descriptions of legendary flying fire chariots to paintings containing objects surprisingly similar to modern descriptions of UFO's.

We know people describe unknown events with the best words they have. Modern examples can be when firescene investigations get testimonies that "The fire jumped from seat to seat". Does fire even have legs to jump with? I would not be surprised if ancient stories about "wheels within wheels" or "Flying chariots of fire" could be describing events they simply didn't have words for.

With all of the stories that could be interpreted as ancient stories of UFO's, even if just a small percentage of the are real - It would mean the UFO phenomenon have interacted with earth for at least thousands of years.

What is your thoughts on this, anything to it? Do you have different estimates? Do you think the phenomena started in 1947? Is it all just a pop-cultural mediaindustrial hoax complex?
