Interesting hypothesis. I guess the best way to test it would be to try to sell bee safety glasses to beekeepers.
You're right. They're different.
Agreed. I was referring to book lungs.
Also, I feel like you got some 'splainin' to do regarding the fish reference.
I want to hear more about biblical teleportation. I definitely missed that in Sunday school.
Quit inserting memes and enjoy the agenda. -conservatives (probably)
I see you around a lot and appreciate your contributions. When I don't have a good response, I'm just going to comment, "Kolanaki!"
Because the history of evolution is that life escapes all barriers. Life breaks free. Life expands to new territories. Painfully, perhaps even dangerously. But life finds a way.
Same. Miles per second? What the hell kinda unit is that? Over here, we use Texases per lamb's tail shakes.
For those of us who work retail, yeah..
Yeah, but we can estimate. I'm confident it's at least 11 in size.
I wouldn't worry too much about it. Anything capable of altering fundamental physical parameters like that will be unknowable to us. We'd be like bacteria are to a human.
Not "the void," no, but "a void," yes. As the universe continues to expand faster than the speed of light, the stars outside of our galaxy will slowly disappear from view. There will come a time when the night sky is just the milky way and darkness elsewhere. I don't know if anything will still be around to observe it, though.
That's a common misconception. We actually live on the surface of a 3D bear claw progressing along a 4D cruller.
You can't do this to me. I started this company. You know how much I sacrificed?!
Pedant here. They absolutely do have circulatory systems. They have what's known as an open circulatory system, whereas we have a closed circulatory system.
To be fair, while bugs and other insects don't have lungs, some arthropods do. The differences among arthropods, insects and bugs aren't exactly common knowledge.
Honestly, I was already out of my depth with the entomology and ophthalmology discussed here. The economics of bee optometry might be a bridge too far for me. Can a bee make enough honey to afford such lenses? If so, does it improve the bee's ability to make honey enough to justify the cost? I have no idea and no clue regarding how to investigate this issue.
It would definitely change the nature of romance and sex.
Non-insect arthropods FTW!
