nah, people work with deep sea creatures all day and just find them cool.
it’d just make international relations with them extremely difficult, honestly district 9 is probably the most realistic take on how we’d treat aliens. We’d be sufficiently unable to empathize with them that we’d treat them like shit, but there’s no real reason to actively try to wipe them out.
it’s extremely obvious that you’re incorrect if you simply look at the words, “centi” means “hundred” and is smaller than “milli” which means “thousand”.
centipedes look like they have a hundred legs, millipedes look like they have a thousand legs.
either you’re extremely confidently incorrect or this is the strangest attempt at gaslighting i’ve seen
i mean, our arms are just fucked up legs, so technically we have an even pair of legs.
and every other company would wait for every country to threaten them before enabling it there, because that’s 5 more months of extra profit!
i mean theoretically they could just make it count as a strike, and if your account gets 3 strikes this way then your account is out as well
good to see steam being accepting of poly relationships and communes

the creatine supplement powder i get has this wonderous resealable bag that uses something similar to velcro to stick together, like imagine velcro but it’s just a bunch of tiny rectangles on either side that friction fit together.
it seems effectively infinitely durable, has no moving parts, and because it can be made however wide you want you don’t have to worry about lining it up like the traditional press-lock bags, and it’s way more of a solid lock.
don’t interact with trolls, just downvote and move on.
CTRL+f, “AI”, enter
but no, let’s not take literally 5 seconds to check whether the AI got confused and included an admission of your shame in the paper.
the way language works, it’s just however people choose to use it. Use the version you think is best.
personally i go for “yate” beause that sounds funny.
as the meme states actually, the point of masks isn’t really to protect yourself, that’s a marginal side benefit, the point is to protect everyone else from your pestilence ridden breath of death.
watching videos that show how particulate from your breath spreads with and without just literally anything in front of your mouth is disgusting, unblocked your breath carries spittle several METERS in front of you, like the world’s most disgusting sprinkler put sideways.
oh man you really don’t want a flaccid caterpillar, total mood killer
existence is fine, the problem is capitalism lol

He talked about electric cars. I don’t know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Then he talked about rockets. I don’t know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard anyone say, so when people say he’s a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
the temperature also isn’t the only thing that matters, it also matters what the weather is like, how much moisture is in the air, and how windy it is.
With no wind you can have like -5°C and it’s perfectly fine if you just wear some fluffy clothing, but if the wind starts picking up it can be +5°C and you’ll feel like you’re going to die.
fahrenheit is literally defined by celsius at this point, afaik celsius is literally the official standard of the united states but everyone just… keeps using fahrenheit anyways
you’re asking if horny people had the idea to give massive honkers to the small green people and make their whole schtick to bonk everyone they see?
if that’s a question that needs to be asked you should treasure your innocence
the one huge and quite funny flaw with that idea is that queens have absolutely jackshit power over a colony, if anything the queen of a colony is basically a slave that gets constantly pampered and directed by the workers with no free will whatsoever.
If we met an alien hive-mind species it’d probably be much like interacting with a military, just much more tightly integrated and profoundly devoid of corruption, imagine HAL 9000 but made up of a million people working together to run the computations.
So they’d likely work tirelessly to figure out what precisely we are, if they determine we’re a threat they’d attack without mercy, and if they determine they can benefit from cooperation with us they’d be the best ally we could ever imagine albeit extremely manipulative.
