Nah if 0° is upright 90° rotates that counterclockwise. Blame trig.

- Comment on tall tails 2 days ago:
I mean, no?
You can see no vertical protrusions of the vertebrae so there’s going to be A: vertical movement as muscles can best attach to pull up/down. And B: a likely flat structural rail with how wide the horizontal protrusions are. C: nothing sharp or heavily weighted at the end so likely not a huge weaponised tail like a thagomizer. So… you’ve got a probably flat tail, than can slam down on stuff.
Now figuring out WHY it was like that would require being able to find fossils around rivers and being able to tell those rivers had dams or something cuz idk how they would figure out exactly how they use their tails but… yeah you can figure the general shape fine based on vertebrae anatomy which leads to (possible)muscle anatomy. Some bones don’t function the way they look and can throw stuff off. Someone else already mentioned stuff like air sacks in birds and such that would really throw off anatomy based on bone and assumed muscular structure from where bones could have attached muscles.
- Comment on tall tails 2 days ago:
I mean… you can see the processes (bony protrusions on the vertebrae) are long and flat and only transverse (sticking out the sides, not up/down) so… it would be pretty obvious it was a flat tail? Sure maybe they might not get that it wasn’t fuzzy without any fossils if it, and maybe they make it slightly less round, but they’re scientists not idiots. Yeah some has come a long way and some older models sucked sure but it ain’t like we are vibe coding their appearance.

Could you… explain how it’s funny?
Cuz… what?
There’s a big difference between seeing someone with major camel toe and laughing about it vs this weird creepy predator shit.
- Comment on Nissan announces 2026 Leaf pricing, starting at $29,990 3 weeks ago:
While there’s plenty they COULD turn into subscriptions (wifi for remote access, wifi for Apple air play, weather service, directions/charger finder service, smart key profiles, etc.) I have an Airya (essentially this bigger version of this leaf) and all that’s free. You can get a subscription to like… seriusxm radio/weather but… why?
- Comment on Aspergers officinalis 4 weeks ago:
That’s probably right. I think they become recognizable as asperagus around 2 years in. We had some, about two years in when were in a mobile home park. Swapped owners so they hired new lawn keepers… who fucking killed them right when they were almost harvestable god I was so mad.
- Comment on Aspergers officinalis 4 weeks ago:
Oh no that’s not even them as babies. That’s like two years in.
This is baby asparagus. It takes forever to develop to actual asperagus stage.
- Comment on Great idea 2 months ago:
lol I mean, I’m sure it’s probably still cool, and books are meant to be swapped out not taken to read on the beach and returned, but I feel the hotel or parking lot would’ve been a better area lol.
- Comment on Great idea 2 months ago:
Fucking horrible idea books do not like humidity. Especially not being handled by actively wet salty people.

Thanks for the relevant pic, I appreciate you saving me having to search it.
- Comment on Your sea crits are safe with me. 2 months ago:
So they’re called sea crits because we only have identified 5%, which is 1/20… aka the only way we find sea crits is by rolling a nat 20?
- Comment on Anker is recalling over 1.1 million power banks due to fire and burn risks 2 months ago:
19/1000000 is not that bad. I mean Tesla didn’t do a recall and I’m certain their cyber trucks have a worse track record.
Saying something is more reliable than ass isn’t bad, it’s more him being surprised anker actually bothering to because plenty of companies have worse products that don’t get recalled.
- Comment on Palworld devs confirm game changes due to the Nintendo / Pokemon lawsuit 4 months ago:
Wish every MMO to ever have flying mounts would sue the fuck out of Nintendo over this, as Nintendo claiming they invented that shit is fucked up.
- Comment on This game has 100 endings, and it's pushing the creators to the brink of bankruptcy | PC Gamer 4 months ago:
I mean… I can’t imagine it being that much more expensive than Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous? Idk if this is a management issue or a funding issue or what. But it sounds cool so I mean I’ll maybe check it out at least
- Comment on You know... they have a point 4 months ago:
You should read (or watch) the Hogfather by Terry Pratchett. May help explain.
- Comment on Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii 4 months ago:
Honestly I would be happy if they basically made it into a Tales Of game as that’s already got dual/triple techs basically, it’s got overworld vs regular maps. It is very close to what a more modern Chrono Trigger would be. I would rather keep the original battle system but I wouldn’t be too mad. They could add all the little party talking cutscene things like in those to add more stuff without having to go crazy on the story.
- Comment on Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii 4 months ago:
Yeah it’s not the 3D I have issue with lol. Please don’t fuck up the story and make this another fucking kingdom hearts.
- Comment on Chrono Trigger Remake Seemingly Confirmed By Yuji Horii 4 months ago:
I’d much rather they don’t FF7 it.

Listen man I would eat fried broccoli like wings too if people would serve it. Fried broccoli is good as fuck.
- Comment on 'Madame Web' Outstreamed 'Deadpool & Wolverine' in First Weeks (Despite Flopping in Theaters) 4 months ago:
300million subscribers on Netflix and 16 million views. About 5% viewership.
125million subscribers on Disney+ and 15.8 million views. About 12-13% viewership.
Kinda a pretty big difference that tells, a lot bigger of a difference than 15.8 million and 16 million.
- Comment on Switch 2 GameCube controller will only be offered to those who pre-order the console 5 months ago:
I mean, there’s plenty of reasons to not like Nintendo, but this whole thing is because the GameCube coming to their Online subscription. So I mean… it makes sense.
- Comment on Wild Blue is a spiritual Star Fox sequel from one of the SNES game's original programmers 5 months ago:
That’s uh, quite the premiere video…
Still, this could be really good so definitely interested.
- Comment on Square Enix will be revisiting Chrono Trigger in several projects in 2025 to mark game's 30th anniversary 5 months ago:
Didn’t it also have to change the soundtrack for some of it? It was just like recomposed or whatever but I remember it being something weird for legal reasons.
- Comment on Square Enix will be revisiting Chrono Trigger in several projects in 2025 to mark game's 30th anniversary 5 months ago:
Maybe another album like brink or time, or they’ll rerelease the anime. Lol. Honestly idk. I am stoked for whatever it is but I doubt we get a bunch of new (full) games or movies or etc. in the setting.
I would be down for a dirge of Cerberus type attempt at something new following Janus after he was thrown back in time into becoming magus, or following Glenn & Cyrus chasing after magus pre-frogenning. Doubt we get anything like that tho.

Yeah it was pretty bad at release, the smoothing was bad too. Fixed both how it looks and letting you disable it, and some other settings that were weird from what I remember.
- Comment on Square Enix will be revisiting Chrono Trigger in several projects in 2025 to mark game's 30th anniversary 5 months ago:
3 times as actually “remastered” others were just ports. PS1, which got anime cutscenes, 3DS or DS I forget, which got added content, and most recently on PC which was just basically a port of the mobile port of the 3DS version but it did have a filter for pixel smoothing and I forget what else.
