Why does it concentrate to one spot?

Why does a mist only glow brightly at one spot?

Was there something creating a shadow ----- except for that one spot?

Why was there not a bright reflection beforehand?

Shooting something doesn't make it become a reflector.

When you shoot things they do not glow like that.

I can see trading a chicken or some eggs for a chunk of aluminum.

This is barter.

Aluminum is easy to identify. This would work easily for up to about 50 lbs.

Anyone could make barter scrap (melt furnace) at home.

Cans don't become worth more.

Dollars become worth less. The purchasing power of an aluminum can stays about the same.

The US dollar is a piss poor metric.

A basic loaf of bread or a gallon of milk -- throughout time are STILL a basic loaf of bread or a gallon of milk . Their usefulness and value stays about the same.

Not true with a fiat dollar.

IMO crypto is a pyramid scheme.

Aluminum cans is a more stable money system.

I see two major problems with the injections.

First --- they have selective, narrow spectrum immunity that breeds variants. Mutants form and the treatment becomes non-sterilizing.

Second --- the mRNA is tiny --- it goes everywhere in your body creating spike protein everywhere in your body --- the tissue containing the spike protein gets attacked.

I took apart an old (broken) mechanical adding machine that would do division.

A million little metal parts.

This was designed without the aid of a computer -- just pencil and paper.

I came to the conclusion --- people were smarter back then.

We are spoiled today.

Many years ago I help port a 2D version of Space War to a Z-80 processor

I think we had 16 kilobytes to play with.

It was played on an oscilloscope.

A lot of it was fixed code -- like the gravity tables (no real time floating point math)

So that is roughly in the ballpark of NASA.

Looks like the computer had 36 banks of 1kilowords ea. fixed memory and 2kilowords rewritable memory. All in assembly.

The tightest code I have ever seen is a chess playing game in 4k.

During the Vietnam conflict they had pretty good inertial guidance systems.

I had a uncle that flew a fighter. He said you could do a dogfight and it would stay pretty accurate.

I personally saw the Apollo 17 night launch from 5 miles away. A Saturn V launch is jaw dropping.

The control system for the lunar landing is what I have a hard time believing.

They had slide-rulers and rooms full of women.

People had more in-brain knowledge back then.

Without allowing digital devices they would beat the shit out of you mathematically.

The part that gets me is the control systems to go from lunar orbit to landing,

and get it right the first time.
