There is no ethical consumption.

“What, me worry?”

They’re way less scary than humans, and you like those, right?

ooer

I feel a lot of affection for spiders.

You have four other major senses that are all applicable.

Once I turned a suspicious faucet I shouldn’t have and got a blast of this in the face.

lol the last word of the comment finally brings it into focus

Off topic, but what’s the source? And is this a physically valid walk cycle, or just an animation? The bit where the three feet are all in line looks pretty sketchy but it’s potentially dynamically stable

Can’t find.

How does he walk?!

Replying because I need to think about how I’m going to vote for this comment and plan to come back later.

I dunno what cameras you are using but a standard full frame sensor and an F/4 lens sees way better in low light than the human eye. If I take a raw image off my camera, there is so much more dynamic range than I can see or a monitor can even represent, you can double the brightness at least four times (ie 16x brighter) and parts of the image that looked pure black to the eye become perfectly usable images. There is so so so much more dynamic range than the human eye.

Hard to credit without a source, modern cameras have way more dynamic range than the human eye.

I had a dedicated fan for a couple weeks.

you can write “f-slur”

Jesus, the “plandemic” explanation for why the Internet is dying. The Internet IS clearly dying, but this is stupid. Even if we got rid of all the bots and AI, the Internet would still be dying, because open protocols are not as exploitable as walled gardens. The value of capital in the world overwhelms the value of human labour and human interest, and all our social structures conform to the needs of capital over time.

I find “LEGOs” very upsetting.

Lego is not an acronym. It does not usually get all-caps in prose, though the all-caps logotype is sometimes imitated in text.

Lego is a proper name, and is also used as a collective noun. It does not get pluralized.

“You can’t play with Lego anymore.”

The most badass animals on the planets are herbivores.

It’s kind of nice that they have stopped trying to hide the fact that this is an atrocity against animals and are just leaning into it. I guess.

Just use another word for something that is in some ways similar to piracy, but isn’t piracy.
