shoes and stuff. but maybe festering ingrown toenails just killed a certain percent of the population until modern times. how did prehistoric humans trim their toenails anyway? did they chew it off?

i went to a surgeon with mine, he just cut stuff out. didnt even mention the existence of cauterization. so y’know, depends on the doctor you find.
i suffered along for a while more until i found out about it. had to go to a private clinic and pay a lot of money for it, of course, but so far it seems to have worked. we’ll see. i’ll consider it fixed if i go a whole year without problems. i’m at 6ish months atm.

you can probably get away with having a strip cut out, as long as they cauterize the matrix. just cutting a strip out is useless, it’ll grow back exactly the same.

this isnt entirely true. cats are terrible at taking direction but it is possible to direct them. i’ve done it when my cat brought a live mouse inside and we had to hunt it as a team to corral it.

yes, but it’s extremely complicated and bulky. first, you have to have a naked ape. then that ape has to invent science and modern technology. then it has to build an electric grid, and then eventually this becomes possible…

this is stupid. give immigrants a billion pounds instead. then, they’ll stop being immigrants and instantly become expats, and anyway, billionaires are good for the economy and society. they’re job creators.

- Comment on Temperatures surpass 29C as UK heads for heatwave 2 months ago:
most portable units i’ve seen are the one-hose kind, which barely does anything because it creates negative pressure inside and then the house is just sucking hot air in through every crack
you have to have a minisplit installed if you want proper AC, which is hundreds of dollars. also, it’s cool if you already have AC installed, but there’s not gonna be an AC installer with free time when there’s a massive heatwave like this, because everyone’s clamoring for AC.

- Comment on shrimp colour drama 3 months ago:
the brain’s actually trying to understand what things are made of, and it’s guessing at that based on the light that enteres the eye.
this is why when you pick up a thing outside and take it inside, it doesnt change color (edge cases exist), even though the light that reflects off of it into your eye absolutely changes a lot.

smell is the first sense, pretty much. single-celled organisms already have it.
of course, in some ways, it’s not as easy as for example vision. you need 3 different kinds of photoreceptors to see pretty much all that there is to see, but you need god knows how many chemical receptors in your nose (or all over your cell wall in the case of bacteria or the like) to sense all the interesting stuff floating around.
