Personally I think the most realistic chance for a better South Africa was the 1948 election. Have the United party win and not the national party, Since this election allowed apartheid to be implemented. The United party wanted gradual integration and more European immigration from areas besides the Netherlands. That means no becoming an international pariah, a larger white population and maybe larger coloured and Indian population, no apartheid and instead slow integration, and majority rule at some point in the late sixties to late seventies. South Africa would be far wealthier and you wouldn’t see the ANC get the chance to run the nation into the ground after Mandela leaves.

You say no humanoid lifeforms exist on earth but we have about 6 around today that are very human light. those being chimps, bonobos, gorilla's (2), orangutans (3), we can also throw in a few other monkeys. We also used to have a bunch more before the rest disappeared. So its not like we are rare. We also have a very large selection of more distant humanoids. None are to our levels but we know of a few things that think & problem solve, octopus, corvid's (crows & such) & then we have the last group being monkeys. Basically we aren't the only things with intelligence & aren't the only things with this look. Its quite likely humanoids exist but they'd be very different to us in the long term.

I loved your video, new subscriber, please return to that project, I wanted to know more about that gaseous world and its creatures

How large?

Good, that you weren´t rejected from art school You know

Bist du deutsch?

Are you dutch, afrikaans or german?

That is such a cool idea to have living platforms made by life floating on the planet's ocean of air - and to see creatures evolving to sapiance in this world that seemingly is so bizarre to imagine life even forming on! I do wonder how they could manage - they'll lack metal, lack soooo many resources that were essential to our society's development, I do wonder if this species will be able to find some way to develop society, and eventually reach the stars, where the constraints of eons will finally be lifted, which would be an amazing experience. This is such a fascinating scenario, because they quite literally might be able to develop some form of society and remain stable for millions of years, eg pre-agricultural forms of society (one of them being hunter-gather societies), but the conditions might just never arise that allows agriculture due to the limitations of the planet. This could continue for tens of millions, even hundreds of millions of years, all while the species goes through countless sapient generations. It is incorrect to think that 'primitive' tribes do not develop technology, just because they never reach industrilization, even in our world where places are not industrilized, does not mean all of our innovations are the ones that work the best. In fact, a lotta times, the designs and tech that tribes find is more reliable, efficient, and effective than what the most advanced societies make, so in fact, the tribes using wood and stone are more advanced than those working with silicon chips and AI at times. They often spend countless hours working communally on innovations, finding new ways to do things, and even if their works look less advanced, the designs can be more efficient, such as a tribe using their limited agricultural land much more effectively. This could be amplified to the extreme in this world. This would be the world they know - the natural order, agricultural might never develop, or only as a partial substitute for other means of nutrition. These sapient beings could manage to never develop technology as humanity did - they would not have reached the end of the tech tree they could access, but instead the tech tree is seen to be vastly, vaaastly, vaaaaastly bigger than ever imagined - they could travel down other branches - all of the other branches, over tens of millions or hundreds of millions of years. All of this knowledge would be amassed, held by tribal wisdom, songs, passed down through objects and lessons, eventually passed down through writing or another system, an even more effective system humanity might never have discovered. Over the eons, these people would gain insights of the cosmos beyond our understanding, all while 'trapped' on their planet, but becoming enlightened vastly beyond us, possibly in ways we never could, because of their origin. Eventually, after eons, they might have amassed so much possibility, such as by long-term genetic engineering (even in our world, in a single human lifetime a species can be profoundly augmented by very low-tech means of selective breeding, lookup Soviet fox puppies), they could augment a species to allow them to reach the planet's metalic core and gather resources (along with the other useful substances closer to the core but impossibly dangerous to traverse without this biological 'submarine'). With this, they could fly to one of the nearby moons, bring back all the metal they could ever need - it would possibly take tens of thousands of years to amass enough due to the extreme costs of space flight, especially to escape a gas giant's gravitational pull, but the progress would speed up and up over time, and they'd settle the solar system along the way, even building mega projects, finding new ways and getting towards their ideals. The wisdom of hundreds of millions of yesrs propelling them, hundreds of thousands of generations of their ancestors pushing them, they would push onwards on finally go. Once the foundation had been laid, and technology would now already be heights impossible for us to imagine due to their insane engineering prowess and insights, they could take to the stars. Within a few years or ?decades?, or maybe it would take centuries still, but it'd be quick, they'd have a Type 2 civilization. Within a few ?thousand to ?tens of thousand (presuming FTL is possible or some other method like wormholes is possible... which if it is, they'll find it, or almost certainly already know if its possible, given their astronomy they studied for millions of generations) they would span as a galactic civilization, in the blink of an eye from a plant locked society to an intergalactic cosmapolitian development-defying peoples. These societies might be better than we can ever imagine, because they just had so much development on their planet locked to grow and explore (or the opposite might be true). While in our world, most of humanity's chonological history is not accounted for by our modern conceptions... perhaps their ideals would break this, and maybe they'd be much better off for their hundreds of millions of years spent in societal reflection. What a wonderful concept you've fomented me into discovery now ^*^

This is the perfect video for me XD

loved this video

great video

It should be revived cause you have a better knowledge of speculative evolution and also recently speculative evolution became mor popular too

i too enjoyed both cosmos and starcom as a boy

We need the next episode!!!!!

I just noticed that the language is in German on the paper. Jager means hunter in German how I know, this video and the beginning scene of Pacific.

I love the use of ctenophores as inspiration. They often get forgotten, so it's nice to see them get some love

Hello, l can reach you

Mike from breaking bad does spec evo now? Prepostorous!

If the Vikings were able to permanently colonize North America, Native Americans would have acquired horses much sooner than when they finally got horses from the Spanish, a few centuries before the year 1492.

What if Southafrica had adopted the cult of Makima, Revy, Cutie Honey, Marin Kitagawa, Trixie Tang, Judy Neutron, Marge Simpson, Wendy Corduroy, Lois Griffin, Sailor Moon and Maddie Fenton instead of Abrahamic shit?

Hair and nails are made out of keratin not chitin. You see chitin is a little different from keratin. They may look similar but their molecular structures are a bit different. You made a mistake there.

TY! 3:30 march of the inevitable,,, 💭 4:30

it would be cool if you did your own biblaridion style series you occasionally worked on though i could see how that would probably take to much time

The official language of the USA would originate from the language spoken on Iceland and in Norway 1200 ago. The letters for writing would be “runer”. These letters were made up of vertical, horizontal and biased straight lines and hence easy to carve in stones, metals, horns and wood.

French is also spoken in South America and is a Latin language

My belief with convergent evolution is that the simplest bodies on earth (jellyfish, starfish, snails) are definately on the majority of life sustaining planets, instances of convergent evolution we see on earth between completely unrelated creatures (fish, dolphins, icthiosaurs or birds, bats, pterosaurs) are probable, and precific earth creatures (human, horse, tyranosaur) will never apear anywhere else.

Slimes if they exist, they are not classified as animals, but a new Group of Protist,called as megaprotist. They're ancestors are protozoans who get advantages after eating energy-producing bacteria (who became mitochondria), these organisms feed in any nutrient-rich matters like algae, meats, plants, fungi or even bacteria, planktons or even edible substance like fertilizers. Like they're ancestors, they eat using they're pseudopods to grab it's food for sustenance. They're organs maybe are the organelles that been combined to do the same function or even produce an new organs to do some other functions, no one can get it's genetic material unless some take they're brain, which is the nucleus. They reproduce by mitosis or meiosis or whatever available to them, because they're organs are organelles, maybe some absorb Chroloprast to do photosynthesis, which be part of it's genetics to create an photosynthetic slime.

Slimes came from no Mythologies, they have been inspired by Amoebas.

Where's the next video?

A nested planet is such a cool concept!

It would be cool if we found life on a gas giant

merci

Enchroma and others alike is a proven

Where does your conclusion that the human mind isn't a deterministic system come from? Sure, a human would change it's action if repeatedly put in the same situation, but that's a function of the brain's wetware computing. If an AI was given the inherent instability of such a setup, it too would change. It's not some mysterious inherent property. We are not "non-detereministic" just because we do not understand the mechanisms that make us deterministic, doesn't mean they aren't there. Good video besides that, though. Just a shame you skip logic and jump to a desired conclusion.

Keep up the good work need more videos I subscribed!

A human being is not non-deterministic. I might not have enough paper in my drawers to write down the positions, velocities, and angular momenta of every chemical in my body, and there might not be enough paper in the world to do that. But there’s quite a lot of silicon in the world that could be made into computer chips. Human behavior might be very hard for computers to predict, but thats not because of the materials in our body being particularly unpredictable. Maybe sometimes there are unpredictable events, like the spontaneous decay of a neutron, that might have an effect on human behavior. But if you run the right random number generator for a long enough time, and compare it to the distribution of some quantum randomness, there would be no way to tell the difference. Free will cannot hinge on unpredictability as a requirement. Free will is not the magical capacity for our souls to defy the laws of physics and steer our bodies in a way that the underlying chemicals would not have behaved otherwise. Imagine a bathroom cleaning robot with a neutron gun aimed at a detector, built inside its head. 50% of the time, when the neutron decays before it hits the plate, the robot decides to clean the tub before the sink. This robot is entirely unpredictable. Does it have free will? Why or why not?

I know the feeling. I've been bogged down in reality myself and have been neglecting my channel terribly.

Will you ever do more videos like your arthropod recipe one? I'd love to see one about chordates, annelids and/or molluscs.

Have you thought about doing another alien planet and its evolution of life? I loved the videos that you've done about alien planet evolution

still can't believe my comment made this happen.

Sorry about the sound issues... Not sure where the reverb comes from. Thanks for watching!

Out of curiosity, which specific background tracks do you use in the Alien Biosphere Evolution videos?

I just got into your channel so I'm pleasantly surprised to see you post again

The gathering and presentation of info in this video are fantastic. The accessory sheet is excellent. Serious work. Super thumbs up!

Well, I assume that the fungi mooch off the surrounding megaflora

1000th like, anyways, this is awesome!

I've often maintained that _anywhere_ that carbon chemistry exists there is the possibility--or, perhaps, the inevitability--of life. Life (or, at least, life as we know it) is really nothing more than complex carbon chemistry, and common chemistry works in a _very_ wide range of environments, from scalding hot geothermal vents at the bottom of Earth's oceans to cryogenic environments like Titan. Gas giants possess multiple viable temperature ranges and a staggering amount of organic molecules to work with.
