I believe I already answered this? There is no ownership without a state to enforce your claim.

Same way animals do.

But understanding how science works is key to having trust in it. If you lack that understanding you may just think it’s a bunch of stuck up eggheads who pick whatever truth is convenient to them.

Wait biodynamic farming comes from Nazis?

Sure why not?

There are certain types of problems they are better at solving. Basically if we already have all of the needed information, but you need to synthesize a huge amount of it into the final answer, they’ll be excellent at that kind of issue.

Capybara are dangerous?! Do they kill by biting or what?

I would assume insects would be evolutionarily similar to other types or prey.

Seems like something other states should get in on. Now that the program is established seems like it would not be as hard to pay into it and get a share of the product.
- Comment on Larry Summers resigns from OpenAI board following release of Jeffrey Epstein emails 5 weeks ago:
If only there was some way we could have known he wasn’t a good guy. Like if, for example, he had famously said it’s good for the economy to poison poor people. Or if he had resigned in disgrace as president of the nation’s university top university after making bigoted comments and involvement in a case of fraud. Or spearheaded the deregulation of the finance industry that directly led to the housing crisis. Just hypothetically, if someone had done all those things, no sane person would invite them to be on one of the most important and powerful corporate boards.
Right?
- Comment on When she got that hot spathussy 🥵 1 month ago:
I just want to explain the very clever double entendre here because I’m not sure how many people will get it.
Skunk cabbage is notable for blooming in late winter, even when snow is still on the ground. How can a flower bloom in snow? Well, it actually generates its own heat, which can be enough to melt the snow around it and allow pollinators to reach the flower. This heat can be extremely important to early season pollinators, since they can rest and warm up in the flower even when it might otherwise be too cold to fly.
So that spathussy really do be hot.

This is way more common than wildlife biologists want to admit.

Touché but you know what I mean. It’s the most logical to have absolute zero be zero.

Kelvin is objectively the most accurate. Celsius fans cope.

Call me naive if you want but I think we might want to aim for slightly more than another flavor of illusory democracy.
- Comment on Why doesn't NASA have a go fund me page or kickstarter? Really don't know how they work but would donate. 380 million in the US if everyone gave a dollar would do good? 1 month ago:
It has some advantages but I think it will make public services even more subordinated to the interests of the wealthy. Since they would have almost sole discretion on where that money goes.

- Comment on Are bots on lemmy? 1 month ago:
I’ve never seen real evidence of bots impersonating people here but it’s hard to know. Maybe admins would have more insights.
There are a few ad bots that sneak in but they usually get a ban pretty quickly.

Sounds like something a bot would say!
- Comment on During the lead up to the Holocaust did the N... regime just kidnap people who they even thought were Jews? Kind of like ICE is doing to citizens today? 1 month ago:
I was worried about this with CECOT but I think most everyone ended up being released from there? Does anyone know if other American deportees are still being held there?
Unfortunately, I’ve seen very little reporting on other foreign prison camps, so I don’t know what the conditions there are like and who is being held vs released etc. Someone in the media really needs to dig into this more. Or if anyone has seen such reporting, please link it.

Interesting, thanks. Makes sense since P. cerasifera tastes and looks extremely similar to European plums. But I’ve never tried Prunus spinosa to compare.

You know it.

Only if it’s connected by water to the other major rivers. But I’m not sure if it is.
- Comment on Dubious Islands 1 month ago:
Thanks. That seems to be the origin of the extra braid that crosses the Rockies on the map.
- Comment on Dubious Islands 1 month ago:
I mean making shit up isn’t a joke though. I feel like the humor needs to be based on something real.
Most of the other “islands” are formed by man made canals, so I’m curious what the situation in the Rockies is that allows them to argue those rivers connect.
- Comment on Dubious Islands 1 month ago:
Uh… is there a waterway that crosses the Rocky Mountains this way? That doesn’t seem right.
