The whole body doesn’t match. Those must be some stupid-ass aliens.

I hope they do and replace Facebook. But in their current iteration, they won’t. That’s all I’m saying.

As much as Facebook sucks, these things will never replace it.

Just clicking through them, it’s apparent it suffers from the same problem lemmy has. You have to read things and follow instructions and then choose an instance…

Yeah, you lost everyone at the first step of having to follow instructions. People just want a Sign Up button, and that’s it. That’s the only step they’re willing to go through.

Piracy is the best thing that happened to anime. Without it, anime and Japan wouldn’t be nearly as popular.

They’re shooting themselves on the foot. People discover anime and manga through piracy, and then if they love it, they end up spending money on it.

Just look at Berserk. I bet 90% of people who spent money on the mangas and all the deluxe editions discovered it through “illegal” means.

But why undertake this elaborate millinery? One study published in 2016 investigated this question by holding trials involving the caterpillars and their natural predators — spiders and stink bugs. The researchers found that attacks on larvae with a stack of headcases took more than 10 times longer than attacks on larvae that had had their stack removed. They found that the empty head capsules acted as a false target for predators and could also be used to deflect the piercing rostrum of a predator.

No, because you’re eating the flesh, so you’re digesting it.

This is more relevant to organ transplants.

Apparently, it’s a known phenomenon that some organ transplant recipients seem to inherit some traits and even memories of organ donors.
