My wife is from Italy, so I printed out a topo of the valley where she grew up. It took me a long time to figure out how to change to the European projection in the software I was using, and I didn't write down how I did it; unfortunately I'm not sure I can figure out it again! There's a digital elevation TIFF of the whole EU available online, even Czechia! If you want to make it a project, I can point you in the right direction and give you some pointers on converting to a obj file to print. I found a couple websites that went through the process, but I didn't find their directions very complete and had to figure a lot out myself.

I got addicted to converting USGS and European digital elevation data to 3d topo map prints; I just think they're neat!

I'm so happy to see someone else hate Discovery and love lower decks and SNW. I have no idea why people like Discovery, so many plot holes in my opinion, I hate it.

This is our recent creation!

I'm a bit doubtful of the animation they show in the article. There are active continental rift zones in East Africa and Asia, at lake Baikal, which doesn't show any movement during the animation. The San Andreas fault isn't shown having any movement in the animation either. Additionally, Europe and Africa are currently moving away from North and South America, but change direction in the animation so the four continents come together without explanation of data suggesting the direction reversal.

It seems like this is a "what if?" sort of thought experiment as opposed to based on actual data. I mean, even current direction of plates could change tomorrow in an unpredictable way, so there's no knowing either way.

Not that it really matters in any case.

I agree. I'm a later born Gen Xer (mid 70s) and generally like Bill Burr; this trailer looks painfully tedious.

Yes, for me the whole free navy plot line could have been way more concise; seemed like it dragged on for much too long. There is a similar show down, or whatever the right word is, in wheel of time.

Regarding the ending, I think I've been so upset with endings of other stories so many times that my standard is "satisfied" or "not satisfied"; I would say I'm satisfied with the expanse. I liked the ending, but it didn't spark joy in me.

Beef strokin' off

Well, I can't answer WHY it exists, but I can tell you how I found it if you're interested.

My wife is from Italy and the singer of this song, Rita Pavone, was\is a famous singer from the 60s through the 80s in Italy. I heard one of her songs in a movie, my ADHD kicked in, and I went on a several week long YouTube deep dive of her catalog of music. My name is potato is, of course, the pinnacle of her creative talent.

Fun fact, which makes the whole thing even more strange, apparently this song is not a single. It's the intro theme song to Rita Pavone's 1970s variety TV show. I've never found an episode online to watch though.

I finished shortly after I posted. I'm satisfied with how they ended it; it was a strong finish. I'm reading the faded sun trilogy now; it's pretty good so far.

Good luck on the wheel of time! I finished that a little less than a year ago. There are some GREAT books, but there are a couple that are stinkers. The fourth book, shadow rising, is so so so good. It's slows down I think in books six and seven, or maybe seven and eight, then the last few pickup again. Have fun, it will be a journey!
