Added. Thanks!

Kaibeezy•3w ago

Aye, thx. Meant to.

I’ll try to confirm the actual original source, you know, just for the article.

For context: Erich von Däniken died on January 10, 2026 at the age of 90 years: https://x.com/vonDaeniken/status/2010314306894828023

Ah, thanks! I had missed that. Let's move the thread to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46578867, which has that info. I'll put your twitter link in the toptext too.
