Maybe the dead mammoth spirits have possessed these researchers into reviving their kinā€¦

Does that mean the mammoth has a shaman society?!

Yes. The mammoth god fooled all of us into believing that arctic elephants were real.

If dinosaurs were brought back, itā€™d be easy to contain them as they would die in our atmosphere since they used to live with one that had 41% of oxygen where as our atmosphere has now 21% of oxygen.

Talk to a psychologist while you still can. You donā€™t want to end up like me whoā€™s been feeling that way for years.

its true that in the dinosaurs age oxygen was higher, but not in that levels

It was much higher in the Carboniferous period (with the giant bugs, 35% oxygen), so Iā€™d say they would be able to survive in our atmosphere, but Iā€™m sure like with lions and elephants, we can exterminate them one way or another.

Letā€™s not talk - dinosaurs have air sacs like birds - which is a development that was created as a result of a lack of oxygen that happened with the extinction of Perm and it remains to this day in birds.

But right now, it wonā€™t happen if we steal a dinosaur from time machines.

Itā€™s impossible to ā€œbring backā€ non-avian dinosaurs anyways, unless some time travel magic is discovered but I doubt that.

I would like to share with you a project in the lab that I am currently working on:

I grow mutant plants in a Petri dish in agar gel (special for plants)

The second picture is an experiment that unfortunately got contaminated with mold and I had to throw away all these plates and today I created the second version, this time sealed.
There are three types of gel that are evenly distributed:
Half MS (the standard one),
100 microliters of iron without copper, half MS
and 40 microliters of copper, half MS (this is quite a high concentration in plants, even copper poisoning - what Iā€™m researching)

Iā€™m waiting for them to germinate and then Iā€™m going to test them in the dark and dry.

Letā€™s see if it works this time :slight_smile:

I was right! Roy is a VR controller.

I prefer the legacy Steam Controller.

It seems like Roy is also smaller than the Index controller.

Why does the x icon now show up as a black twitter bird?

This is kinda random, but Iā€™m honestly so glad this forum exists. It feels like such a secure, secluded, safe and comforting space compared to the near-endless dumpster fires of hostility that the mainstream social media are so often. It just hit me how much I benefited from being here, and how much lonelier and mentally unwell I wouldā€™ve been if I never was a part of this (or any other, for that matter) community. So, thanks everyone for being here! :heart:

Youā€™re welcome. I am willing to bet that many others around this place feel alike.


The quick question thread seems to have been on the decline in the recent timesā€¦
