Because nobody wants to sell this?

I don’t think that has anything to do with having sex.

I guess that’s the whole point why most people tend to build some kind of relationship before jumping into bed. It’s not weird if there is trust and affection between the people involved. It’s also a basic instinct of most animals, it’s something you want so any awkwardness that may arise is secondary.

When I couldn’t afford a new species that I wanted to keep :(

If you don’t like the act that leads to reproduction, you’re less likely to reproduce meaning that your genes will probably not be represented on the next generation and therefore the likelihood of people not enjoying reproduction is generally low.

This isn’t properly calculated though. They only count the actual laser energy inside the reacttvs output. They don’t account for the huge amount of energy thatch’s needed to run the lasers in the first place or the rest of the facility. It’s nowhere near putting out more energy than it consumes and it’s also a reactor for nuclear weapons testing so they don’t really try to produce energy anyway.

Easy, just drive them in Mexico or Canada and they’d be fine.

I’d like to be able to hear like a bat. There’s so much of the sound spectrum we normally don’t perceive and it’d also be cool to experience their echolocation.

Our eyes are pretty good at working in air though. The only thing that makes them fish like is that they have to stay moisturised really. I doubt that filling them with air would do much, we could maybe get rid of floaters though. The dumbest thing about our eyes is that they’re inverted with nerves and blood vessels being in front of the receptor cells so I’m wondering how much they’d improve if they were properly constructed like in squid.

They probably can’t see colour very well though. They may have more receptors but they can’t mix those as well as humans so it’s a bit like looking at an 8 bit game with some new colours. Also the resolution of their eyes is abysmal. Birds have one receptor more (UV) and really sharp vision. That’s where it’s at imo.

I fear that it will be the former.

Well well well, just wait until you get a sunburn resulting in skin cancer and say that again. Check mate astronomists.

It is certainly a challenge to keep a large animal with such a thick shell afloat. However that would just explain the immense size of the shells. Their shape is just extremely weird and sometimes I’d even expect it to be detrimental to their ability to navigate the open water. If they were planktonic it would not be as problematic I guess but I still don’t see the functional advantage. Maybe mimicry? But of what?

They look a lot like the calcareous shells of some polychaetes but they have a sedentary lifestyle attached to rock or other substrates which is not what we’d expect for Ammonites.

Maybe it’s a puzzle that will remain unsolved.

Don’t hurt me like that :(

Electric brushes (with regularly changed tips) can be amazing. There are also some inexpensive ultrasonic ones and I’m absolutely happy with mine. It’s a whole other level than handbrushes.

Drip feeders can in fact be excellent. Unless you’re already the kind of person who will forget about those as well.

Might be plausible. I’ll have to look it up at one point, maybe there’s some research on this. I think it may be hard to guess why because we don’t have many swimming animals with shells. I don’t know if snails may offer some answers but they are maybe to different in lifestyle.

For 90% of people it’s watering issues. Mostly overwatering.

Has anyone got some conclusive theories on the functional morphology of this?
