Nobody likes a sucker, especially the kind that fall for fruit tarts like you. I knew there was trouble. I could smell it on the hot evening breeze. Fortunately for me, trouble is my favorite thing… Because I’m Joe Milkshake. I kicked down the door with one swift, decisive motion.

Check the arch wiki first if installing Gimp is going to bork your system.

I love how Loki Season 02 introduced me to the wonderful word or phrase “hoof it” and now when I inevitably see it online its Mobius voice in my head saying it.

As long as as you don’t use ETA as an abbreviation for “edited to add”, you are ok. That shit was suddenly everywhere on reddit, god darn kids and them fancy ambiguous acronyms!!! shakes fist at clouds

Didn’t know it means loser for rappers. Guess that means I am either online gamer or old.

Yes, a paper that they retain “memories”. I didn’t doubt that. I doubted the “turns completely into goo and then solidifies as butterfly” part. And from what I can tell after skimming the introduction of the paper this is only covering the behavioural aspect.

Yeah, but again, this says “turns completely into goo” and thats not at all what you are describing either. Its just over-sensationalising an already impressive process. But I can see I am alone with that opinion, so whatever. Total goo it is.

Alright, I am certainly not an expert when it comes to transformation of caterpillars into butterflies but this is very likely a massive and incorrect oversimplification of the process.

I mean this makes it sound like if you poke a hole into the cocoon it will just drip goo out until its empty.

Happy to be corrected by a real expert but very likely transformation occurs in coordinated small steps and not just everything melts and rematerializes.

So you don’t like academia. You don’t have to stay in academia if you get a PhD, it is not a one way ticket.

Probably, but what if so? It is not like you can choose to ignore that. All the while there are jobs in the industry not at all like that.

I think you got some self-exploring to do.

Sort of like how you can use a 3D printer to print a new 3D printer, but there are some parts you cannot print like that. Like if its a PLA printer you probably still do need some metal parts for their characteristics, sturdyness or whatever.

So maybe a replicated replicator would work, but probably be very unreliable or stops working quickly.
