Would Anomalocaris actually do well in the modern world. I feel like they probably wouldn’t do so well in the modern ecosystems of much more evolved marine creatures. Would get out-competed very quickly, and likely face plenty of other challenges. Being out-competed is likely the reason they went extinct in the first place.

Unfortunately reality doesn’t always work out the way maths intended it to. Almost all the ones I’ve gotten had many of them broken. Makes for slick marketing though.

I think the only thing that is really pumpkin about pumpkin spice is the association with pumpkin pie. Pumpkin on its own doesn’t have much flavor though so it would taste like whatever you put on it. If the combination weren’t used in Pumpkin pie as much as it is, it probably wouldn’t even be called pumpkin spice.

It’s averaged out, the real values are in a range, they just took the average between them.

All 3 states exist at the same time, rapidly alternating between them.

Don’t fluids conform to the shape of their container? In a sense they would all be conforming.
- Comment on Eat lead 4 weeks ago:
Was going to say exactly that, not all lead came from radioactive decay. So this kind of ruins their debunk, Earth’s age has been measured by the amount of lead.

Exactly.

Let’s also not forget that Scientists are also humans. Humans with their own beliefs and biases which do get transferred into studies. Peer review can help reduce that but since peers are also humans with their own biases, but also common biases shared amongst humans it’s not bulletproof either.
There will always be some level of bias which clouds judgement, or makes you see/think things that aren’t objectively true, sometimes it comes with good intention, others not so much. It’s always there though, and probably always will be. The key to good science is making it as minimal as possible.

I mean those things didn’t change, it was just about how research was manipulated by money and human biases.

Petrolium is made from ancient algae and plants, not dinosaurs.
- Comment on Just asking questions 6 months ago:
It’s only science if you’re willing to accept the conclusion the observations lead you to even if they prove your idea wrong, because the point of science is to learn and gain understanding, and that is done by being wrong about things and investigating to find the correct answer.
It’s no longer science if you’re not willing to accept the conclusions because they prove your idea false, which ultimately is the problem that happens with science deniers, they are unwilling to accept being wrong.
- Comment on Oxygen 6 months ago:
Good point, though it still won’t melt all at once though it takes time to melt and boil (not much time but still takes time).
- Comment on Oxygen 6 months ago:
It won’t float away if you freeze it first, of course it will sublimate away but not all at once.

I can do at least 45 seconds up to a full minute.

This is science memes, what about this post do you find similar to egg_irl?

It does seem nice but I hear the association fees there are insane.

It’ll be harder for most people who don’t know how to set profile picture using the API or network requests field, since the way the Lemmy Frontend is done it requires Uploads in the Frontend, but doesn’t actually require them to set the image (just a URL to the Image, I have mine set to a Codeberg Repo containing the images, allows me to change them whenever I choose, and also guarantees stability since image hosts can be fiddly and also allows Tor users to see them more easily (many image hosts have connection issues under Tor, causing connectivity to be inconsistent).
