Nah, they never had a need to build big fancy nests when they were in their natural habitat. Now many of them live in cities where they nest on the sides of buildings, which are very cliff like. I don’t think they’re a very intelligent bird, but the nest building behavior is instinctual, so I wouldn’t expect them to dynamically adjust their nest building.
I recently learned that since pigeons lived on cliffs, they really only need a bit of sticks to keep their eggs in one place. Unlike a bird, which builds its nest in a tree.
I miss multiplayer in PC games being done by joining a server and playing. No match making bullshit, it was fun to be in a server with a mixture of skill levels. As compared with a lot of game snow, when ever your skills improve, you just get thrown into a harder tier of match making until you reach your limit and burn out.
I thought that feature was related to the expensive for pay Copilot feature? The recall feature listed a huge amount of space required for it to work, something like 275 GB, SSD. There is no way that’ll just be a baked in feature in normal home Windows. Am I wrong Lemmy? To be clear, that feature can F right off.
Well damn, it’s on Apple TV, the one service I don’t have.
I’m cautiously optimistic! Twisted Metal surprised me, and maybe this will too!
The Thing is my favorite horror movie. With that being said, they probably didn’t have a grand plan for the dog turning to look back. They probably didn’t even direct the dog to do that, because it’s a dog, it was probably looking back at it’s trainer in that scene.
The motive for the The Thing is always survive, and in that situation it was being hunted, and getting away from that threat was first and foremost it’s goal. After it was safe, it wanted to leave the arctic, to most likely infect and convert more life forms. It’s unknown if The Thing is a space faring race on it’s own, or just a parasitic hitch hiker who consumes life forms and adds their understanding it it’s own. If it’s just a consumer of life, then it’s goal would be to get out of arctic to population centers and get to work taking over and mimicking more organisms. If it’s intelligent and isn’t just a consume, it’d want to get off of earth to continue doing what ever Thing things it would normally do. I definitely lean toward it being a consumer, having tried to take over the original owners of the ship it crashed onto earth in.
Thank you for inducing me to the concept that fire drills inoculate me against fire. I love it ❤️

I’m so glad I could positively impact someone! I listen to audio books like a fiend, while cleaning, during laundry, during running and biking. But The Expanse books were the only books I’d be so hooked I’d listen to them while eating dinner instead of watching a show.
Yeah, I don’t you’d like the rest of the series then. I was completely hooked, but I listened to the audio books first and ended up not liking the show as much as the books. I think it’s more about what you experienced first. My big issue with the show is, they changed a bunch of characters, took some characters and combined them into one. A good example is Bobby wasn’t amazonian in stature, and I missed some of the technical details like needing crash couches in order to account for changing directions.
I highly recommend the book series! There are enough differences from the show to keep it fresh, AND the story in the books goes much further then the show got to.
Power Word Loon. I love this, thank you.
I love the first Dune book, and I love the goofy 80’s Dune movie, which was pretty close to the book in terms of getting a lot of the internal dialog in place. But I hated the new Dune movie. I didn’t like how sterile and empty they made the palace, or the weird anus mouth design of the sand worms. Or the silly use of balloons to help lift harvesters. I very much didn’t like how they made Lady Jessica an emotional mess, instead of being in control of her outward emotions, as she was trained to do.
They also screwed up the personal defense shields REAL BAD. The idea that the shields react to kinetic energy, so a fast moving project from a firearm would get stopped, but a slow moving blade would pass through. The fight near the end had people being killed by fast sword strikes by hitting the shields, it was just so jarring and lazy. They also completely misrepresented who and what the Sardukar are. Based on how many people loved the movie, I have an unpopular opinion. Though I found that most people who absolutely loved the movie hadn’t seen the original movie, or read the first book, so they didn’t know anything to color their impression.
I think the difference was, they were just side banners and that’s it. They didn’t have all this insane tracking, data analysis, metrics, and knowing everything about you bullshit they do now.
Hah, same here. The dishwasher video was my beginning with his channel. I adore is dry humor, and informative nature!
Oh good to know, I’ll keep an eye out for that! Or something like it at least!
Being born in the 80s, I was told I was born in the nineteen hundreds. It didn’t feel great.
