the explanation (not proof tbf) that actually satisfies my brain is that we’re dealing with infinite repeating digits here, which is what allows something that on the surface doesn’t make sense to actually be true.
no, that’s not how cladistics works…
as you can see from the diagram, pterosaurs are not descended from the stem-dinosaurs, thus they cannot be dinosaurs any more than birds could be mammals.
it’s not really a definition thing as such, “dinosaur” just means anything descended from a specific point on the tree of life.
most dinosaurs can fly, since all living dinosaurs are birds and those very famously tend to fly quite a lot.
well almost, we don’t know what they sounded like but we can make pretty decent educated guesses at what they probably sounded like in general.
For example parasaurolophus very definitely seems to have a resonating structure, like a trombone strapped to their face, so it’d be weird if they didn’t make some sort of trumpeting sounds.
Another big one is that dinosaurs generally didn’t have anything like a voicebox or whatever the thing is that birds use to make their calls, so we can be quite confident that most dinosaurs didn’t make any bird-like noises, and they wouldn’t have been able to do stuff like roar either.
Which leaves us with t.rex probably just having sounded somewhat like an alligator.
even on a less well-maintained system it’s probably not going to be the kernel having a freakout, the kernel is going to be just fine while something else shits itself (probably graphics drivers on a desktop tbh, my vega 10 loves to vomit onto the screen and pass out)
i read it as tech-tronic which made it ~10% funnier

this is why i respect web spinning spiders and jumping spiders (despite the name).
web spinners just spin their webs and sit there, they’re in their lane and flourishing.
jumping spiders are smart enough to recognize that we are gods compared to them, and that we probably won’t appreciate them making sudden fast movements.
it’s the legs and speed that do it, normal centipedes are plenty freaky but the fact that the legs are stubbier makes them much more managable, they’re more like seeing a wild rat.
it’s wild because humans are supposed to have this sort of reaction programmed into us for snakes, but i’m absolutely fine with snakes and even find some of them quite cute!
but anything with long thin legs? incinerate it in nuclear hellfire
Most CEOs could be automated with a random number generator that runs on a combustion engine fueled by burning dollar bills.
it’s like how techbros constantly want to reinvent transportation, if they assign an AI to give them an answer it would just say “build more railways and trains” and they’d throw it out a window in anger

as much as you can use windows without touching the command line, so long as you don’t fuck about with stuff or want to do anything particularly fancy you have no reason to touch the terminal, but if you break stuff then just like with windows you’ll want to use the terminal to fix things because otherwise you’ll be spending 5 hours clicking your fingers off in a graphical problem solver.
he appears to be made of flesh
pretty sure slavery and other terrible things require a system to perpetrate them, people have to be dehumanized and kept at a remove otherwise the inherent empathy in us will make us realize how fucked it is
