Pretty much the same vibe around here too.

Agreed, but I don’t think they want to try that hard.

I also just want to say, I only found this when I went looking to find what kind of feather patterns they might’ve had lol

They’re not necessarily bad, it’s just an extra barrier to entry.

Blu-ray also had the advantage of PS3 supporting the format without the need for an external disc drive.

Unfortunately for Carnotaurus:

Carnotaurus was further characterized by small, vestigialforelimbs and long, slender hind limbs. The skeleton is preserved with extensive skin impressions, showing a mosaic of small, non-overlapping scales approximately 5 mm in diameter. The mosaic was interrupted by large bumps that lined the sides of the animal, and there are no hints of feathers.

Scalation was similar across different body parts with the exception of the head, which apparently showed a different, irregular pattern of scales.[AL][15]There is no evidence of feathers.[7] Larger bump-like structures were distributed over the sides of the neck, back and tail in irregular rows.

I’m not going to willingly put my money towards someone who supports that kind of thing. The first response to my comment was a very level headed response and provided evidence that he does not directly support the administration.

Still doesn’t provide me a lot of consumer confidence though.

ANTEDILUVIAN: Classic Paleoart in Movement

The XIX century supposed a proggessive yet traumatic transition from the Old Regime to Modernity. Social movements, Technology, Literature, Art and Science were all at once changing how Humans perceive the world they lived in for ever.

The very song that leads this motion picture was itself a game changer for music composition, just as the scientific discoveries that were happening at the time challenged society's world viewing. It was the begining of Paleontology .

William Buckland notoriously tried to make sense of the Biblical dogma to the new scientific revelations. He theorized that the Antediluvian creatures that Mary Anning and Gideon Mantell were unearthing were probably punnished by God in a series of catastrophes, due to their apparent grotesque and violent nature, the Deluge being the ultimate one.

The first dinosaur was formally described in 1824, exactly two centuries ago. Since then our perception of Megalosaurus has quite changed, and that's a reminder of how science progresses. This animated short is a commemorative homage to the pioneers who dared to stand for the truth they started to discover, considered 'outcasts' at the time; and the artists who for the first time imagined an entire different past of our planet.
