From (Spanish) Las salpas, las extrañas criaturas que llenan las playas de Málaga
estos invertebrados no tienen nada que ver con las medusas, por lo que no son urticantes, (...)
"Son el paso intermedio entre los invertebrados y los vertebrados, puesto que tienen una primitiva columna, y forman parte del plancton, la sopa marina que es la base de la cadena alimenticia en el mar", ha manifestado.
These invertebrates have nothing to do with jellyfish, so they are not stinging, (…)
“They are the intermediate step between invertebrates and vertebrates, since they have a primitive column, and they are part of plankton, the marine soup that is the base of the food chain in the sea,” he said.

Thanks... I must have had a brain fart. I don't know why I though it was a German edition, probably the font (facepalm).

I think is this one:
daniel everett is the guy who worked on pirahã. he has all sorts of fantastical claims about the language but chief among it is the idea that the language doesn't include recursion because the speakers avoid relative clauses (not what recursion means in this context but ok). the papers are basically unfalsifiable because the pirahã people distrust outsiders, rightly so, and he steers very close to outright calling the people primitive savages, which is very uncomfortable. if you call him out on his shit he just calls you a chomsky shill. super toxic guy.
I find it funny that it's from the same user that wrote this comment in another meme I posted about it:
everett's papers are incoherent and contradictory
yes we should be skeptical of any theory. but finding proof that one part of a theory might be wrong does not make the entire theory wrong (also evidence keeps emerging that everett had an incomplete understanding of pirahã as for example didn't someone prove that recursion is actually possible in pirahã, just marked by prosody rather than syntax?). and then framing it as "fuck chomsky" rather than "fuck universal grammar" is disingenuous at the very least.
i dunno i could say more but i won't. i will say though: the way that everett frames this discussion as being either with him or with chomsky is frankly delusional

From the description:
Taken at night in Singapore forest.
Quote from https://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumping_spider Jumping spiders are among the easiest to distinguish from similar spider families because of the shape of the cephalothorax and their eye patterns. The families closest to Salticidae in general appearance are the Corinnidae (distinguished also by prominent spines on the back four legs), the Oxyopidae (the lynx spiders, distinguished by very prominent spines on all legs), and the Thomisidae (the crab spiders, distinguished by their front four legs, which are very long and powerful). None of these families however, has eyes that resemble those of the Salticidae. Conversely, the legs of jumping spiders are not covered with any very prominent spines. Their front four legs generally are larger than the hind four, but not as dramatically so as those of the crab spiders, nor are they held in the outstretched-arms attitude characteristic of the Thomisidae.[3] In spite of the length of their front legs, Salticidae depend on their rear legs for jumping. The generally larger front legs are used partly to assist in grasping prey,[4] and in some species, the front legs and pedipalps are used in species-recognition signalling.
The jumping spiders, unlike the other families, have faces that are roughly rectangular surfaces perpendicular to their direction of motion. In effect this means that their forward-looking, anterior eyes are on "flat faces", as shown in the photographs. Their eye pattern is the clearest single identifying characteristic. They have eight eyes, as illustrated.[3][4] Most diagnostic are the front row of four eyes, in which the anterior median pair are more dramatically prominent than any other spider eyes apart from the posterior median eyes of the Deinopidae. There is, however, a radical functional difference between the major (AME) eyes of Salticidae and the major (PME) eyes of the Deinopidae; the large posterior eyes of Deinopidae are adapted mainly to vision in dim light, whereas the large anterior eyes of Salticidae are adapted to detailed, three-dimensional vision for purposes of estimating the range, direction, and nature of potential prey, permitting the spider to direct its attacking leaps with great precision. The anterior lateral eyes, though large, are smaller than the AME and provide a wider forward field of vision.
The rear row of four eyes may be described as strongly bent, or as being rearranged into two rows, with two large posterior lateral eyes furthest back. They serve for lateral vision. The posterior median eyes also have been shifted out laterally, almost as far as the posterior lateral eyes. They are usually much smaller than the posterior lateral eyes and there is doubt about whether they are at all functional in many species.
The body length of jumping spiders generally range from 1 to 25 mm (0.04–0.98 in).[3][5] The largest is Hyllus giganteus,[5] while other genera with relatively large species include Phidippus, Philaeus and Plexippus.[6]
In addition to using their silk for safety lines while jumping, they also build silken "pup tents", where they shelter from bad weather and sleep at night. They molt within these shelters, build and store egg cases within them, and also spend the winter in them.[7]

AFAIK that would be ok, a lot of subreddits don't even require the posts to be approved, so that would be the same as setting your sub to not require approving and posting to it with a different account.
I was never downvoted on Reddit as hastily as I am on Lemmy.
Note that, unlike reddit, lemmy shows negative vote values. So it may seem a bit more dramatic compared to reddit.

Crul 1 year ago • 100%
From the source:
Just over a thousand years ago, the stellar explosion known as supernova SN 1006 was observed. It was brighter than Venus, and visible during the day for weeks. The brightest supernova ever recorded on Earth, this spectacular light show was documented in China, Japan, Europe, and the Arab world.
Ancient observers were treated to this celestial fireworks display without understanding its cause or implications. Astronomers now understand that SN 1006 was caused by a white dwarf star that captured mass from a companion star until the white dwarf became unstable and exploded. Recent observations of the remnant of SN 1006 reveal the liberation of elements such as iron that were previously locked up inside the star. Because no material falls back into a neutron star or black hole after this type of supernova explosion, the liberation of this star's contents is complete. It represents, therefore, a cosmic version of Independence Day for this star.
This is a composite image of the SN 1006 supernova remnant, which is located about 7000 light years from Earth. Shown here are X-ray data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory (blue), optical data from the University of Michigan's 0.9 meter Curtis Schmidt telescope at the NSF's Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO; yellow) and the Digitized Sky Survey (orange and light blue), plus radio data from the NRAO's Very Large Array and Green Bank Telescope (VLA/GBT; red).
This combined study of the Chandra, CTIO and VLA/GBT observations shows new evidence for the acceleration of charged particles to high energies in supernova shockwaves. An accompanying Hubble Space Telescope image of SN 1006 shows a close-up of the region on the upper right of the supernova remnant. The twisting ribbon of light seen by Hubble reveals where the expanding blast wave is sweeping into very tenuous surrounding gas.

An omni-wheel can move in multiple directions because it has lots of smaller wheels around its circumference, so it can roll like a normal wheel, or slide sideways. Normally you’d use at least three omni-wheels on a vehicle so that you can move or rotate in any direction. But in this video I’m going to put my giant omni-wheel on the front of a bicycle, and with some clever electronics I’m going to control the wheel so I can ride it. I’m using the back end of the bike from the Makers Secret Santa Christmas video which Colin Furze left on my driveway. I’ll need to modify the bike so I checked it wasn’t Colin’s bike from his childhood or anything and he said it sounds cool. As I mentioned last time, the wheel is going to be mounted the wrong way around on the front of the bike so the two wheels make a T-shape. So first of all I need to make some modifications to the front forks of the bike. > CAD and Code: https://github.com/XRobots/BIGOmni-Bike

Then I will include them on my watchlist and will try to post at least from time to time.
As I said in other comments, thanks to all of you who create and moderate communities. For now, I'm just trying to generate content, which I know is the easier part.

Note that I said: "you look a bit more organized than small subs", and that's not a very high bar, hehe :P.
More seriously, I thought you were related to reddit's Imaginary Network, which is huge and with some big power-users.
If that's not the case, then more props to you!

posting so much content can sometimes be a bit tiring.
Agree. What I'm doing (in case it helps) is, instead of going for quantity, go for quality and try to focus the efforts on a few communities that interest me. That way I am posting about things I really like in just a few places and it doesn't become a chore.
I'm trying to get other people on my community to do it too but it's not that easy.
Indeed, it's HARD. This is one of the reasons I haven't created a community yet, it seems too much effort-VS-results-ratio. I know I'm taking the easy path because I'm not so invested in any specific community. So thanks to all of you who create and moderate all the communities.

Prepositions are hard, and these are the ones that confuse me the most: - It seems (...) **[to / for] me** - It looks like (...) **[to / for] me** - It feels (...) **[to / for] me** - It sounds like (...) **[to / for] me** - (...) makes more sense **[to / for] me** Questions: - Are both valid? - If both are valid; is there any nuance as to which to use? - If they aren't: is there a general rule or is it a case-by-case (as it usually is with prepositions)? Thanks!

I know Bakshi's version has A LOT of issues, but I grew up watching it again and again and I have very fond memories of it. I'm aware I am in the minority. One of the [scenes I love is Boromir's death (video link)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZpmZyTK2dI&t=48s)... if you can ignore the "not-enough-budget" Uruk-hai. I like the roughness and lack of music once Boromir's is hit with the first arrow.

From the description: > HiPOD 26 May 2023: Fans Both Light and Dark > This image is part of a longterm seasonal monitoring site with lots of long bright and dark fans. These are formed as a result of sublimation, when subsurface ice is transformed by sunlight into a gaseous state and exposes the underneath darker material. This is subsequently blown about by the wind and the fans will fade over time. > ID: ESP_073543_0925 > date: 4 April 2022 > altitude: 247 km > NASA/JPL-Caltech/UArizona About Beautiful Mars: > Images and posts from HiRISE, the high resolution camera onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO, NASA).
