How do you write a dissertation on acoustic signaling for creatures that have been extinct for millions of years? It’s all untested theory on top of untested theory.

Nobody tell this guy about the state of modern physics.

Wow wow wow! Modern physics is based on things that have experimental proof.
You are probably thinking of the theoretical physicists that are constantly speculating on things like what exactly Dark Matter is, BUT the presence of “dark matter” and basically all other phenomenon that do have great explanations for are actually, literally and demonstrably real.
Something makes dark matter. Something causes the Weak Force to only care about left-handed particles (or was it right-handed? bah my memory!), we just need to know what. Even things like particles having spin and basically anything you would learn from a competent school is demonstrably true all the way back to Newtonian physics.Newton wasn’t wrong, it just breaks down at larger scales. Even General Relativity has some issues, and some argue the Standard Model may need significant revisions … but that is still EXTREMELY grounded in reality.

Maybe based on the bones and flesh imprints in the rock you could recreate what the sounding cavity may have been like, which would help you get an idea for what sort of vocalizations would be possible.

Turning a raptor bone into an ocarina is the plot line of like 30% of Jurassic Park movies. The other 70% is using raptor bones to pretend disembowel children. It’s all raptor bones.

I sorta get it, but stuff like that can only tell you so much. It’s an awful lot of hypothesizing and guesswork - so much that I’m surprised you can make a dissertation out of it.
Then again, I’ve never had to write a dissertation, so I don’t know what’s involved.

With context.

Computer modelling has gotten incredibly sophisticated in the last 30 years.

I think the word he’s looking for is “young,” I could not for the life of me figure out why they have to be physically small to have a dream
meliaesc@lemmy.world 4 months ago
They’re synonymous in this context.
subtext@lemmy.world 4 months ago
I mean yes I figured it out eventually. Just could have been more clear from the get go.

Just watched the episode of prehistoric planet with my SO where the Dreadnaughti use frog bellows for signalling and mating displays
Now I’m wondering if they cited her specifically on that one

Fun fact:
Bryony is a poop name.
boatsnhos615@lemmings.world 4 months ago
What a loser LOL all for an outdated competition that you dedicated your 24/7 life. Her onlyfans would be more memorable

No, that job is already taken.

It’s fine, she said in an interview afterwards that her next career move is fulfilling a lifetime ambition of joining the circus. So the spot is still open.
