I use this pdf whenever I find a printer on a random WiFi network. 😅

my favourite programming language

Even worse is when the source is hidden behind a paywall.

Isn’t hyperlinked reference the default? I dont even know how to turn it off.

This is pretty much what my dumb brain sees when reading anything of even mild importance

Honestly we deserve it. Orcas are considered sapient and on par with human intelligence by many experts, and one could argue we’re colonizing them.

Its not colonization if you can’t change their hearts and minds. Shit, we can’t even communicate. This is more like war.

Colonization requires zero convincing of hearts and minds, where did you get that from?

@photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Well, usually when you colonize, you destroy the native tongue and culture, to better assimilate them into your own. Spread the word of the good lord and all that. But I guess you can colonize mars, so I guess it’s not a requirement. My mistake. I wouldn’t say we’re colonizing orcas, though.

bouh,

Like genocide.

Are they trained to ask this when everyone at the table literally has their mouth full?

anarchy79,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

I go out of my way to tip extra when they don’t approach me at all and just let me eat my damn meal in peace.

Also, if they think they’re going to get a polite lie about what I think about the food, the establishment, and the service, they are about to be sorely disappointed. Don’t ask me if you aren’t prepared for the raw truth.

BaardFigur,

Why do you tip someone, for simply doing their job? Don’t think I’ve tipped ever

If the food sucks, I don’t think I would have my mouth full when they came by. 😅

SportingChap, to memes in I order takeaway to hide my shame.

I see Rich; I upvote.

100_percent_a_bot,

That is clearly Mr. Plinkett

SportingChap,

I’m such a hack fraud.

pleb_maximus,

Of course, international superstar Rich Evans has that effect on people. None can stop themselves when seeing him.

LastYearsPumpkin,

You seem to have added a comma, that changes the whole meaning.

Is upvoting because Rich replacing upvoting because good meme?

friendly_ghost, to science_memes in Teeth.

Say more! Genuinely curious about this

planetaryprotection,

Makes me think of this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentition#Dental_formula

Teeth can tell you a lot about an animal. Their size, shape, number etc can tell you what it eats or how it eats or how much it eats. Dental formula can give you clues for how animals are related to each other. If two different animals have the same dental formula then maybe they share a common ancestor or have a similar diet. If two animals are already very similar but have different dental formula then maybe they’re only very distantly related or there’s been some convergent evolution elsewhere.

ech, to science_memes in Make like a tree and leaf!

refuse to elaborate further

I’m no dendrologist, but I assume it’s just oxidization, no?

TheOakTree, (edited )

IIRC the change in temperature inhibits the production of chlorophyll (green), which means we see the other pigments which are yellow, orange, red. I remember the yellow/orange are carotenoids but can’t remember red.

baggachipz,

Yeah but it’s not the temperature, it’s the change in sunlight. Almost all plants (and even animals) are affected by the seasonal change in daylight.

ech,

Interesting!

Classy,

The red pigment is anthocyanin

Mango, to science_memes in Me too

Hyperlinks in a numbered list is the new APA.

I promise you, their solution will be “murder the orcas”

meat_popsicle,

…it’s the easy answer so it’s the most likely.

anarchy79,
@anarchy79@lemmy.world avatar

That has been the solution to a non-existent problem for the better part of a century.

Laticauda, to science_memes in WHITE WHALE HOLY GRAIL

Have they considered befriending the whales, or at least bribing them?

Shazbot,

Was thinking something similar. What if the whales just don’t like the sailors’ taste in heavy metal? Have we tried passing the aux to the whales? This could be a valuable learning experience.

@Haggunenons@lemmy.world avatar

Killer Whales and humans have a long history of friendship and cooperative hunting. The orcas would lead people to large balleen whales, and the humans would spear them, taking most of the meat, but leaving the lips and tongue as payment to the Orcas.

This was before we turned their habitat into a toxic sludge superfreeway and exterminated their food supply.

homesweethomeMrL, to science_memes in WHITE WHALE HOLY GRAIL

Yeah when I think about how to calm wild animals down, blasting metal is my go-to.

FFS.

BleatingZombie,

… I have a cat that falls asleep with loud metal music

circasurvivor, (edited )

Because of, or in spite of the music?

cordlesslamp,

Cats are just a whole other being of existence. My cat fell asleep next to the wooden cabinet that I’m hammering down at full force, but got scared shitless and zooming to hide when I dropped a spoon.

HiddenLayer5,

Cats aren’t normal animals.

cordlesslamp,

Cats aren’t normal animals, whatever the hell they’re.
