As in the tradition of calling Halloween satanic died down?

You embrace the Gospel of Truth from Sloppily Generated Arch Jesus.

I have a different theory to "safety in numbers", "GPS locator" etc

Namely that we live in a simulation and this is how the simulation is trying to preserve computing power. If two people park separately in the wilderness somewhere then twice as much area has to be computed. However if the simulation guides the second and other subsequent vehicles to the same place then there's only one area that is actively observed and have random encounters with wildlife generated.

Looks like there's still something you can try, brother.

Juggling might be in the same vein as bicycling, or swimming. Learn it and it's really hard to unlearn it. Or maybe like tying your necktie or shoe laces. You learn it once with more focus and then periodically if recalled you retain it.

Anecdotal, but I've learned how to flip the balisong over a couple days in my late teens at the cost of lots of cuts on my hand and fingers (more dramatic than it sounds really) without a guide. I haven't had one in three decades, but I got my hands on one a year or two back and I was able to recall the motion and technique in only a couple tries without any cuts. Even today when I think about it, I can do the flick motion and my hand and wrist instinctively yearns for the weight of the cool steel.

How do you make it?

I've watched the Man From Earth a couple times. Can only recommend.

However it doesn't fit your description. Oldman says that his memory is basically limited. Just like any mortal's. Only the brightest, most impactful memories are retained and the rest is a blur. If you are forty plus, you barely have memories of your childhood today, unless you have recorded them as soon as you could and rehashed them frequently. Same for him. As such, he is constantly evolving with the world mentally (and physically apparently).

I up voted it for their effort anyway. It's contributing discussion. Including you calling them out on it. You also deserve an (ultimately meaningless and fleeting) up vote.

Are you in Brazil?

Damn, the down votes. People really don't get sarcasm on the internet eh?
