The planet has gone through countless climate changes throughout it's [sic] history.
Indeed so. But those climate changes have been gradual and driven by natural forces, allowing ecosystems to adapt. The "little ice age" was a short-lived phenomenon that ended soon enough to allow a return to the then-normal.
And…"it's," which you use twice, is a contraction of "it is." I think you mean "its" instead. Perhaps you are the one who should put on some educational shows.
Hey! so i wanted to know how does someone upscale a video that has a frame rate of 30fps to 60fps? And up the resolution from lets say 480p tp at least 720p? i really hope someone here can help me out on this. I reeeally wanna know how to do that.
There's software that can do this, but there's no reason to.
The video you're starting with has 480 pixels vertically of content. Interpolating more is not going to increase the sharpness. Also, if the original only "took a picture" 30 times per second, adding a frame between these won't make things look better. And while software can fake a higher resolution or frame rate, it's more likely to do more harm than good.
If you have a standard definition DVD (usually 640x480, 29.97 fps if it's NTSC), you'll get the best results on a computer monitor or large screen TV if you let those machines scale/stretch the video to their screen sizes. The software in those machines is tuned specifically to optimize the result to their screen sizes.
Bottom line: You can't add sharpness, detail, or motion to a video that doesn't have it in the first place. Let your monitor or TV do the work. Attached below are two random frame grabs from random videos, probably shot on analog tape in the 1990's, at 480x320. All the upscaling games in the world won't make them look better.
Vaccines are bullshit. There's no proof they even work.
Oh for heaven's sake! Try reading the science involved.
That said, I don't believe in forcing vaccinations on people who don't want them…as long as such folk don't have ANY interaction with the rest of the public. Maybe let them move to one of the deserted islands in the south Pacific where nuclear tests were conducted. (They probably don't believe that radiation is harmful, or that the island will soon be awash by rising sea levels.) The rest of the world won't miss their absence from the planet.
I hooked up a few times with a guy who loved to suck and get fucked. One time at his apartment I saw a photo of him and a girl together…I asked who she was, and he said it was his wife. That was a bit of a turn off. The next time I came over, the door to his closet in the bedroom was ajar. I didn't think anything of it, until I heard a very feminine sneeze: His wife was in there, watching us, and pleasuring herself at the same time.
That was the last time we hooked up.
Wouldn't want an odd number, someone could easily be left out.
This can be a problem with 3-ways. I did a 5-way once, which soon turned into 2 in one room and 3 in another.
I think five or six is probably a good limit, and that's assuming that the guys have some understanding ahead of time about who likes what. Larger numbers work in porn scenes only because they're very carefully scripted and directed.
As an aside, the best 3-way I had was when a wank buddy of mine (both of us tops) thought it be cool to DP a willing bottom. We found a small-of-stature twink type on a hookup site. I thought we were going to split the guy open, but instead had this wonderful feeling of our two cocks sliding against each other inside the guy's hole. Yes, I took pictures. No, I don't think I should post them online 
The warmer the planet is, the more vegetation. It's a cycle that creates MORE plants because the environment is beneficial.
This is nonsense. Do you have a scientific reference for this? (Hint: QAnon essays don't count.)
Oh dear…we've wandered into a fact-free zone:
CO2 is oxygen for trees.
CO2 is not oxygen. It is a carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. CO2 is where vegetation gets its carbon, and then it expels oxygen. The problem is that there is more CO2 in the atmosphere than vegetation can absorb, which causes the the temperature of the atmosphere (and thus the Earth's surface) to rise in temperature. This is not a conspiracy theory; it is settled science.
EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler noted that 50,000 gallons of raw sewage was dumped into an Oakland estuary, due to windmills not being able to maintain the needed power, when back up waste water pumps failed.
The sewage release was caused by a power outage resulting from excessive electrical demand due to an extreme heat wave (think CO2 in the atmosphere). One notes with amusement that Wheeler's inane comments were made at a speaking engagement held at the Richard M. Nixon Presidential Library. I am not making this up.
Their green new deal crap just proved conclusively that it sucks.
There is no "green new deal" in California, or elsewhere in the US. It was proposed by some far-left congress people, but lacks the support to move ahead. It is not in the platform of either major political party in the US. It is not going to happen in the forseeable future. [Personal opinion note: I do not think the "green new deal" has been thought through; it strikes me as simplistic political grandstanding. I am not disappointed that it is dead on arrival whenever it's mentioned.]
The only things he care about are money, golf and pussy.
And since gay men aren't chasing pussy, they're not competing with him…reducing the chances that he'll be a "loser."

Ultimately, five boats did sink during the event.
They didn't sink; they were re-christened as submarines.
I was just talking to my neighbor. He got a ballot by mail for his dead cat. He's sending it in for Trump! HAHA!
That's quite fitting. The deceased feline probably has more intelligence than the average Trump voter.
Oh God you're so ridiculous. Survivors of Authoritarianism?
The quotation from the original poster was taken from an author who grew up in Pakistan. He has credibility as a "survivor of authoritarianism."
Many people in the US don't know what authoritarianism is like. They need to put down Faux News and read about–or even visit--Russia, North Korea, Belarus, etc., etc.
It would also help if they got back on their meds.
More information on voting processes in the US can be found at the non-partisan Electronic Registration Information Center, https://ericstates.org/. Their goal is to help states keep their voting systems current and accurate.
One finding from their studies is,
Officials identified just 372 possible cases of double voting or voting on behalf of deceased people out of about 14.6 million votes cast by mail in the 2016 and 2018 general elections, or 0.0025 percent.
If bad actors are using mail-in voting to "rig" elections, they're not doing a very good job.
Just do a search on the word "free," and you'll get a bunch of them.

WAIT, are you complaining becase ManHhandler suggested that conservatives stand up to the liberal rioting, looting, terrorism, murder etc, etc?
This is the phrase that is offensive:
Well, we're going to start coming after you because this shit has crossed the line, so get ready. We are all armed to the teeth and we're just done with you playing violent games with our country that's getting people killed, the time for self defense is rapidly approaching. So get ready, because you aint seen nothing yet. I would be terrified if I were you
You can't possibly tell me that this sort of thing is appropriate for a moderated message board.
Democratic Underground is moderated and far worse is posted on there.
It's your fellow liiberals that are actively engaging in violence including murder. But NO you are only care abouut a conservative getting angry and callng for self defense.
FaceBook, Twiitter, etc etc are moderated and they allow liberals to post videos of them celebrating the cold blooded murder of a "Trump supporter" and a mom holding her toddler who dared say "all liives matter".
I have yet to see any liberals condemn the BLM (and Antifa before that) violence but you all get extremely butt hurt when a conservative calls for us to start defending ourselves.
You are totally missing the point.
I am not complaining because a juvenile poster "suggested that conservatives stand up." I am complaining because that same user said that "we're going to start coming after you…we are armed to the teeth...I would be terrified if I were you."
If you don't see the difference between what's in blue (your statement) and what's in red (the other person's statement), I can't help you. I can only suggest that you resign as a moderator and seek therapy.
Super Easy. Under your screen name click on "Details and Stats" Then "Friends list" Click on "Find User/Browse User List" and add the name.
Thank you. It doesn't seem to work very well for me: While I have that user blocked for PM purposes (see first image below), after clicking on the "Find User/Browse User List" link, I seem to lack the permission to de-crap what I see.
I do appreciate your advice.
Since I ignore every post or comment ManHandler makes, I hadn't read what he said in his tirade.
My dumb question of the day: How does one "ignore" a user? My IT support says that my computer runs much better if I don't put sh*t in it.
What I think should be a requirement for not only Themed Movies and TV Episodes (possibly for some other areas also?) is the Uploader should explain in the Description WHY something qualifies as having gay content or gay themes. Often they will also simply post a torrent with NO Description at all…which tells downloaders absolutely nothing useful.
I usually try to do that in whatever I upload unless it's blatantly obvious (such as either something in the Description, or screenshots of two men kissing or in bed, etc.). I usually post something like "The gay interest?", followed by the reason why...even if it's only one character or one scene in the movie or tv episode, or a particular interesting or strong homoerotic content.
This would also help avoid people having to ASK "What is the gay interest or relevancy here?" (which I often have to do in the Comments of a torrent if the Uploader has not explained why something qualifies for being here).
If users followed this guidance, it would go a long way to resolving the question "Is this gay-themed or not?" At the very least, it would give the moderators a head-start in making their decision. It's also potentially ambiguous: Someone who's very good at making yoghurt could be considered "culturally competent.
If this were made a rule, it could help to define what's meant by "gay-themed" as opposed to simply "gay-interest." That's not an easy distinction…but, for example, I think Julia Child's old cooking shows are probably of interest to many gays, but I'm not sure I'd call them "gay-themed." Do they belong on this site? I'll let others debate that.
As an aside, perhaps we can use some terminology other than "culturally competent." That term suggests that someone who doesn't meet that description is either uncultured or incompetent (or both), and that's a bit unkind.
