Not just cromossomes matter. Intersex can be purely environmental and not genetic.

- Comment on Is there a practical reason data centers have to sprawl outward instead of upward? 1 week ago:
Because the electricity pulls the magnets down in the same measure, so they meet in the middle. Newton’s 2nd law or something.

Depends on the price of the land.

- Comment on Can we have a healthy life only with fruits or fruits and plants combined alone, and if not why? 1 week ago:
During summer I like to just make salads with many ingredients. Leafy vegetables, seeds, fruits, nuts. Add a can of beans and you have a great meal.
- Comment on Can we have a healthy life only with fruits or fruits and plants combined alone, and if not why? 1 week ago:
There’s no toxic canned beans. You can explore cooking beans yourself later as you find out which ones you like most.

I don’t know where OP lives, but for the vast majority of people in the world, it’s cheaper to cook plant based meals than eating meat, eggs and dairy foods. The exceptions is in places that have poor access to fresh food. But even then usually rice and dry beans is the cheapest food and very shelf stable.
The main reason it might be hard to pull off is if OP is not able to cook due to lack of skill, time, space, time. Many people end up depending on frozen meals or cheap take out because they have 2 jobs or something. But if you have time to cook and access to a supermarket, there’s nothing hard about vegan cooking.

Just fruits would be very hard. But plant based diets are very common with minimal supplementation (vitamin b12 is needed and eventually vitamin D, folic acid, iodine, could be added if missing from your diet).
Look up Plant Based Whole Food diets (PBWF). A source I rather enjoy is the “vegan doctor” Dr. Greger and his “daily dozen”: nutritionfacts.org/topics/daily-dozen/
Basically what he says is that if you manage to eat foods from all 12 groups every day, you probably have a good diet.
- Comment on When you wake up, how long does it take for your brain's "OS" to "resume from hibernation"? 1 week ago:
I typically wake up naturally nd go to bed not too late. So I can say I go from waking up to being awake in less than a minute. This sometimes causes me to have insomnia if it happens at 4AM because I become incredibly awake.

Not really free. You won’t recoup the price before the machine dies.
- Comment on Do air purifiers really reduce dust much? 3 weeks ago:
But the dust will settle on everything, including the shelves you just cleaned?
- Comment on Do air purifiers really reduce dust much? 3 weeks ago:
I think most dust is dead skin and skin mites. Then in some areas there might be most dirt (entrance) and fibers (where you do laundry).

This meme no longer makes sense, as now the Millennial would be teaching the Gen Alpha how to use a computer.

So inspiring.

Yeah, some apples I bought recently weirdly last a long time. The reason I know is that they tasted bad so I didn’t feel like eating them…

- Comment on i enjoy high fructose corn syrup too 1 month ago:
There are many reasons, but it all comes down to economics: how easy and cheap it is to farm and harvest, yield size, does it require refrigeration during transport, what’s the shelf life, etc. Unfortunately optimizing for economics rarely pairs well with user interests, e.g. How nutricious the food is.

- Comment on Smöl 1 month ago:
Hm, I disagree. Most complex animals we know are kinda big. When you get to the size of this lizard, usually we talking about insects that are little more than muscle automata. When we think of lizards, we think of of animals with a level of complex personality we can identify with.
When something complex is this minified, it is amazing. If you don’t think so, maybe you lost some sense of awe in life.

I’m sure we have satellite imagining from September 2024 or 2023 which would show what you’re trying to show.
- Comment on Why doesn't Hamas or Israel just meet at a predetrmined place and time and just have out or kill the crap out of each other? Instead of involving civs who don't have anything to do with war? 1 month ago:
I don’t know if there has ever been this level of discrepancy between availability vs access to aid in a conflict. There’s lots of aid available, but Gaza has zero access to it.

That’s a fun idea for a game. You’re growing a bee colony that has evolved a symbiotic relationship with a species of snail. They feed and defend the snail, while they build the nest on the back.

The fad has passed. Now the trend is using random objects as microphones.
