I was reading that Flea from RHCP did the bass in this song. Also the drummer from Queens of the Stone Age provided drums.

Contrapoints content isn't usually my cup of tea but todays video is pretty good. Very long but it went by quick:

I actually haven't been watching Twitch in months but of course there is some kind of stupid drama going on with their new player council. Accusations of SJWism and Tokenism abound.

The same thing happened to Texas, I remember years ago it was quite peaceful where I live and traffic was never all that bad. Then when people from other states started moving here, it got trashier, crime rates went up, and the traffic is worse than ever.

Would be difficult for some redneck to shoot that thing down, that's for sure.

With most guns, it would be very difficult (not to mention very dangerous, because of how far the bullets travel when shot towards the sky). But probably not too difficult (and less dangerous) with a shotgun and birdshot shotgun shells (weapon & ammo specifically designed to take out small flying objects and with limited range, so the shot doesn't travel for miles & kill somebody). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotgun_shell#Birdshot

Neuroscientists say that our brains are equipped with something akin to "apps" (always running or ready to be accessed in the background). Doing physics calcs on the fly (in real time & subconsciously) is just one of them. Pretty much all birds and mammals are equipped with this ability, to varying degrees of speed and accuracy. In humans and other predators (such as bird of prey), it allows us to rapidly track moving targets for the purpose of hunting (or sports, such as swinging a bat and hitting a 90mph fastball). Birds of prey (like Bald Eagles) have even more advanced versions of it, since they're able to pinpoint the location of fish below the water's surface in real time without even thinking about it. Light refraction (bending of light) when light passes through water causes most other species (like humans) to perceive the incorrect location of the fish rather than its actual location. Another one is bats' sonar ability. Many species of bat hunt flying insects (moths, etc) and track tiny insects with pinpoint accuracy.

Yeah he says that the squirrels are able to react and calculate in less than a split second, which is impressive, but human beings are certainly capable of that too. It definitely comes in handy when I go mountain biking.

It definitely comes in handy when I go mountain biking. The squirrels have another instinctive trick he didn't talk about. Notice how they stop and go, stop and go when a larger animal or vehicle is moving towards them. That's to evade predators, because it causes the predator to reset its motion tracking calcs every time the squirrel changes its own velocity, making it harder to predict where the squirrel will be at any given frame during the attack. Doesn't work so well against vehicles though, due to the size/surface area of the tires and the squirrels probably panic at the last second since they perceive the entire vehicle (not just the tires) as something that could crush them.

I found the pinpoint location of the fish below the water today with my drone...lol..
