As long some war does not wipe out the entire planet or something from space hitting the earth, I'd say as long as the sun is around. In the future humans will be able to basically live forever through regenerative medicine, bioelectricity or bioengineering.

I like all kinds of music but the old ones when I was growing up from movies or eras before that really stick

I don't think this man is a ''genius''. While he might be ''smart'' in his field, I believe he's basically someone that came up with an idea (or some ideas) and worked 24/7 on it and with some luck he got got to where he is today. Something that many people could of achieved if they put the work...

Even the Dardani more inland clearly had an Illyrian contribution to them, as did more likely the Moesia area and possibly even the Triballi, a Thracian tribe, that were influenced by their Illyrian neighbours. Thracian names appear in Eastern Dardania, the area between Naissus (Nish) and Scupi...

While the majority of Albanian J-L283 might fall under J-PH4679 and also the J-L283 of the Hoti tribe, there are also Albanians under other branches or clades, some of these such as this one below is shared with one Romanian and a Montenegrin from Cetinje. https://www.yfull.com/tree/J-Y191359/...

The Berisha-Sopi cluster is a founder effect that only started expanding in the medieval period, it does not represent proto-Albanian at all unless its diversity was lost. Even Berisha e Kuqe E-V13 has more likely hood to be proto-Albanian and has expanded with Albanians for longer than...

In Tosks it is less because it was also invaded and settled by foreigners and there are inflated I2a and J2a and other lineages from foreigners. But the lineages which clearly have proto-Albanian diversity such as J-PH4679 and R-z2705 and R-PF7563 still exist among Tosks. Some I2a in Tosks and...

J-L283 is not exactly a ''minority'' but one of the most numerous lineages, J-PH4679 has proto-Albanian diversity, it's a founder effect but a founder effect within diverse lineages spread across all Albanian speakers, including Tosks. The main point is this lineage did not expand from one...

Not sure how exactly R-Z2705 is supposed to be an argument against an Illyrian origin. R-Z2705 is under BY611/R-CTS1450 which has been found in the Western-Central Balkans BA/IA samples with Illyrian profiles but completely absent in Thrace in Iron Age Bulgaria or among any Daco-Thracian...

Illyrians were not only present in Albania though. Dardania & Moesia for example was a Daco-Thracian-Illyrian contact zone at one point. While I agree Albanian also Thracian/Dacian influence (which I believe occurred in the West-Central Balkans possibly from Daco-Thracian expansion from the...

https://arbanology.substack.com/p/e-by4465-a-look-into-a-proto-albanian Thought I'd share this post from Arbanology on E-by4465 which has proto-Albanian diversity.

In Norwegian newspapers and media they are now saying Trump has been basically bought by Russia and is getting paid by Russia apparently.

Interesting how it seemed he was sucking up to Russia during that Zelensky conversation... imagine talking like that to a man whose country has been invaded. Except for maybe Crimea and Donbas, most of Ukraine does not want to be part of Russia or have anything to do with Russia so this is...

Nobody from my village has tested nor any relatives.
