Ah, I like all three parts - still very watchable. I haven't seen the 2011 re-boot of this one yet. Is it any good?

Only 10 cases of Guinea worm disease were recorded *globally* last year.
It may become the second human disease we eradicate, after smallpox.

Stumbled across video about early 1900s Manchester. All #AI, it's like a fever dream. The absurd narration ("If Manchester sneezes, the global textile market catches a cold") slips between various accents. Most of the visuals are insane: impossible equipment, vanishing objects, plus see Alt texts.

Outland (1981) is a less well known scifi movie which I very much like. This review article is well written and I mostly agree with it. While not a fan of remakes, Outland is one film where I think a remake could be interesting. Hard to replace Connery, though

Should everbody supplement vitamins? Short answer: it depends.
Paracelsus was certainly right: the dose makes the poison.

Should we all be taking vitamin supplements?
Vitamin supplements can be an efficient way to add vitamins lacking in our diet. But they're not a silver bullet.

Paul Verhoeven's RoboCop is a pitch-black satire of Reagan-era America–it's still a smart, vicious, funny movie almost 40 years later, where the issues it's commenting on have become normalized to a disturbing degree.

I still remember the news report. I was a kid, sitting with my parents in the living room, in front of the TV. This memory is seared into my brain. Just like other desasters that happened in 1986: Chernobyl and the fire in Schweizerhalle in Switzerland, extinguishing most life in the Rhine river
Forty years after the Challenger disaster, engineers who fought to stop the launch still grapple with the guilt of "what if." The tragedy remains a definitive lesson in the danger of prioritizing management goals over engineering truths and the fatal cost of silencing dissenting voices.
40 years after Challenger: Lingering guilt and lessons learned
The space shuttle Challenger lifts off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Jan. 28, 1986, in a cloud of smoke with a crew of seven aboard. The shuttle exploded shortly after this photo.

Screamers is underrated. And: Peter Weller!
SCREAMERS (1995) Dir. Christian Duguay
This atmospheric sci-fi thriller asks what it means to be human once AI can evolve on its own. The tension builds steadily, paranoia runs deep, and it’s always a pleasure to watch Peter Weller navigate the fallout. A sharp Philip K. Dick adaptation with teeth🎞️📽️
