No, the reproduce pretty quickly. Wipe out 50 % of the bacteria in your body, an they will recover in a few hours. Wipeout 50% of all the grass in Africa, and you’re gonna have a lot of starving gazelle, and even more starving lions.

Even worse than that. 50% of all life dies, right? That’s 50% of the plants too. If you know anything about food chains, taking 50% of everything leaves the top of the chain massively overloaded.

I thought it was just an instantaneous, every living thing has a 50/50 chance of living or dying. No rounding, no species specific exceptions.

Cosmic microwave? Is that what you are calling “ants in a snowstorm” these days?

Pffff. Look at this conspiracy bullshit.
Everyone know that the universe will actually be created tomorrow. What you are experiencing now is a flashback from tomorrow of what you did yesterday. Prove me wrong.

Yeah, and Alexa/Siri/Google assistant don’t eavesdrop unless you use the magic words to activate them.
- Comment on Baidu CEO warns AI is just an inevitable bubble — 99% of AI companies are at risk of failing when the bubble bursts 3 weeks ago:
I’m having flashbacks to Windows 8 being heavily developed to be “touch optimized” at a time where %3 of computers had touchscreen capabilities.
- Comment on How come people who are against abortion are in favor of the death penalty? Kind of seems like a contradicition/ 3 weeks ago:
I’m pro-choice, but mostly anti-death penalty, isn’t that a contradiction?
I don’t really think so. A person’s bodily autonomy and the state’s power to execute citizens should not overlap.
- Comment on Eels 4 weeks ago:
Glass lizards have external ears. Easier to spot those right behind the jaw. Their body/head segment is pretty distinctive once you’ve seen a bunch side by side. At first it’s difficult, but with a little practice they become easy to distinguish, like Alligator vs Crocodile.

Did you miss the whole “childless cat ladies” thing the GOP has been doing lately?

You should try reading your source…
“Experts say the American alligator’s top running speed clocks in at 11mph.”
I a fat outta shape slouch, but I think in a life or death situation I could manage 11mph for a few minutes.
Sure they can burst a good bit of speed, but that 20-30 ft sprint mostly comes from them lunging with all 4 legs and their tail as hard as they can and then maybe 1 or 2 more lunges and some scrabbling.
It’s mainly a matter of weight and gait. They got stubby little side protruding legs and they weight a ton incomparison to their leg musculature. They can high walk for a good distance, and they can gallop, but only for a few steps.

Flat solid land? Nah, person wins on any distance over a few feet.
Through brush and marsh? Nobody beats the gator.

At least get WPA2
- Comment on Social media is becoming infested with climate change denial and misinformation 1 month ago:
Th evidence is undeniable right now, whether you trust the science or not, the facts are easily observable to the layman.
We have a new summer heat record every year, for at least 10 years.
Hurricanes and severe weather becomes more frequent and more powerdul every year.
- Comment on If Trump loses the election and flees to another country to avoid his sentencing in his (multiple) lawsuits, does the Secret Service have to go with him? 1 month ago:
The whole point of the USSS protecting former Presidents is to prevent this exact thing from happening. The USSS would do everything in their power to prevent him from fleeing or to get him back.
- Comment on How do I know if a medical issue should be addressed by a Clinic Visit, Urgent Care, or the Emergency Room? 1 month ago:
My general hierarchy…
Something chronic, or changing, go to a Dr.
Something rashy, uncomfortable or parasitic, got to clinic.
If you call an ambulance, go to the ER.
- Comment on Home Depot 1 month ago:
Rented the biggest truck the had at home Depot.
American trucks are so shit that it still wouldn’t fit the small length of lino I had cut for my bunny room.
Shoulda just tied it to my little car and saved the 70 bucks.

I don’t know what it is, but it’s weird and pissed off.
- Comment on Why do phone manufacturers use in-display fingerprint readers instead of fingerprint readers on the power button? 1 month ago:
Unless you got a really cheap, or really old phone, it’s rated to handle that water and dirt exposure.
- Comment on How did people poop before smartphones were invented? 1 month ago:
Mad magazine, Nat Geo, or if all else fails, back of the shampoo bottle.
- Comment on Hammerheads sharkz 1 month ago:
They only look weird in post mortem photos because their jaw is stuck forward. Most of the time the swim around looking like any other shark.

And the exothermic reaction is really weak. Barely gets warm.
- Comment on Why does the USA have so few legal protections for ordinary people, and how can we change that? 2 months ago:
Not that I would recommend this, but I feel like the shittiness of business correlates in inversely with the public’s opinion on molotov cocktails.
If your fucking business burns down weekly because you keep fucking people over, you’re not going to stay in business very long.
