The difference might be in primates in captivity learning from humans using tools around them all day every day. Primate see primate do trial and error.

I don't get it. I highly doubt zookeepers tend to pick medicinal plants from the habitats in lieu of popping a painkiller. Otherwise how would using a shovel teach a monkey to use plants to treat a scratch for example?

"Quiet quitting" is a bullshit term meaning to do your job but nothing above or beyond that. Joshua Fluke has done multiple videos on this BS, and at this point there are plenty of other idiotic terms thrown around to try and make workers look bad.

Didn't OnePlus have a special camera which ended up being updated away because it would see through people's clothes?

Would that I could, I'd trade years of my life to get some extra years for my dog. It's insane to think he's a third of the way through his lifespan already.

I think the implication here is that it wasn’t communists. Lots of people call whatever they don’t like “communism.”

That is utterly ridiculous.

I wanted to tell a joke here, but all the good jokes argon.

But not before the ability to make materials that can withstand the sun blasting it for millions of years without degrading.

Neat!

dojan , 2 months ago to Privacy in Youtube is now unusable without a frontend

I feel this, to an extent. I rather like the guy, I like what he stands for (for the most part, I don't agree with his stance on at-will employment), but I don't generally watch his videos for the same reason; angry preaching to the choir. I already agree, it's mostly a waste of my time to watch.

I love this photo so much. It’s such a shame that the neo-Nazis are in parliament now.

dojan , 2 months ago to politics in Democrats need to pull themselves together and remember: Biden is still better than Trump

There are issues with that sort of system too, though I'd consider it preferable. We have a decent distribution of parties in parliament here in Sweden, but it's still kind of tough to find a party you really jive with. At least you have options, but generally it's all compromises and nothing really fits at all.
