I'm having a very interesting start right now

I got jackpot with a level 3 anomaly and rescued a lvl 6 alien scientist (who happens to have human portrait) with genius and computing specialty. That alone was awesome but then a few months later I got a notification that the rescued scientist unlocked for me two free techs which are shown in the screenshot. That, and I got vision of my surrounding areas just when I was struggling to find a good colonization target.

Turns out there's Earth right down there. I'm planning to let them colonize 2 or 3 more planets before I conquer those egalitarian hypocrites.

That's nice. For me jackpot looks like salvaged cruiser, free marauder ships, automated shipyard, free caravam ships and one purchased cruiser and a weird AI battle form. Imagine having that in MP!

Makes for an interesting story of you rescuing a lost Earth scientist that has gone insane over the years and thinks he is Sutharian, not human at all. Insane, but a invaluable addition to your empire. Would make more sense if he had Maniacal trait instead, however.

and the mad scientist thinks she's been betrayed by Earth so helps us conquer them in revenge?

I did, but I already spent my luck points on Stellaris and maximum HP rolls in Pathfinder... Another game as Determined exterminators I neighbour... One FE, one empire of coward and another Determined Exterminator and I beat the Prethoryn in record time for me as they spawned right next to my doomstack that had significant PD and anti-armor weaponry. It's relatively easy when your reinforcements come from 2-3 systems away.
