No, but that's a common error. For some reason they put huge amounts of ice in there and keep it from melting. I have heard that when the Poles' ice melts, we all are going to drown.

No, since the EU them banks have been unified. Every European bank is now of the "no volt, no currency" type.

A lot of science fiction and non-fiction discussions concern the next evolution of mankind. The Nazis and other villainous organisations tried to force it forward through misguided selective breeding programs or gene manipulation or whatever.
For example: I just recently watched a movie called I Am Mother (2019) - IMDb[^] wherein *** Warning! Spoilers ahead *** a robot AI decides to kill off all humanity to breed and train a better human race from selected embryos.
All these incidences seem to only ever allow for one type of human as the "future of mankind" except one I have come across. In H.G. Wells' excellent book The Time Machine - Wikipedia[^] and for those illiterate enough to need it, the movies: The Time Machine (1960) - IMDb[^] and The Time Machine (2002) - IMDb[^], the latter having flashier effects but less close to the book, IMHO. In these *** Warning! Spoilers ahead *** there are two "future human" types, the "Morlocks" and the "Eloi".
My question is, given the appropriate circumstances, which do you think you would most likely become, or what other human "evolutions" do you think are actually possible?
Personally, I, or my descendents, would expect to and up as a Morlock as I would hopefully be in the underground bunker come the nuclear apocalypse.

I watched it (I Am Mother) with my wife this past weekend. It's a good movie.
Did you think that Swank's character was a previous failed attempt (by the robot)? That was my take away, but my wife didn't get that.
And as for me, given those options.... I will be the time traveler.

They said at one point that it was (about) 15,000 days since the extinction event - this is around 41 years, which could be the age of Swank's character if she was the first "try".

I had assumed that the young girl was the one created on day 1, but she was only 12-15 or so when swank made her first appearance. If that's the case, she (the young girl) could have been the 3-5th attempt.

Looking at the missing/used embryos in the rack, there were three missing. I assumed Swank was the first, clearly the second died or was otherwise lost and the girl we saw was the third attempt.

Nope, but now that you mention it, it's a good possibility.

Nah.. it's you who suffer from hubris, you think human are safe from evolution? nothings stops evolution!
Though, to be fair, we starting to be good at genetic modifications those days...

Sounds like you have no understanding what is "evolution" from a biological point of view (which is the topic).
Death, by the way, is a major driver of evolution! More deaths usually mean faster evolution...

Religionators also don't believe in evolution.

Evolution does not require belief. It takes a conscious effort to ignore the proof; to say you don't believe in it despite the proof - means you're delusional.
