Whereas most races are content to evolve slowly and carefully over thousands of generations, discarding a prehensile toe here, nervously hazarding another nostril there, the Haggunenons would have done for Charles Darwin what a squadron of Arcturan Stunt Apples would have done for Sir Isaac Newton.

Thanks! What a great combination of words! Is it midjourney?
Whoa! Do you mind sharing your prompt? This is so cool!
Cold Shower.
Maybe a cold shower that has to be as long as the time it takes you to get into the shower from your bed. If it takes a minute to get into the shower, then you owe a minute of the coldest water.
I made the account to start a community on animal communication and so I wanted something interesting related to species. Haggunenons is a species from Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy that evolves very rapidly.
I used your name in a comment in that thread, do you receive a notification telling you that your name was used?
That’s a fantastic point, I missed that. Thanks so much!

Mixtral is an amazing one that isn’t super slow or require incredible hardware foe a decent speed.
In general this guy has really good videos/tutorials for the latest tools.
I don’t think there is a scientific concensus on this. We are constantly finding previously unknown similarities between the minds of other animals and humans. I’ve put together a small lemmy community on animal communication and digital bioacoustics, it is somewhat related to this stuff.
The main things that stuck in my head after all those years was that stuff like assault, rape, murder, torture, entertainment-based animal abuse all used to be much worse. He said that people used to nail cats to posts around town so they would flail around until they died, just for the hell of it. I never fact-checked these claims.
Thanks for the information, I had no idea that Pinker had such an anti-following. I’ve not read or even thought about him in years. I just vaguely remembered that that book did a lot to make me more thankful for the current state of things compared to how they used to be. I appreciate you letting me know that he is such a questionable fellow.
The Amazon reviews are really bad. If anyone is looking for a book with this same idea, The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined by Steven Pinker is really great.
This is big news! We’ve got a lemmy community specifically about Digital Bioacoustics (technology and animal communication) for anyone interested.
Are these all pronounced exactly the same way?
I loved Nova, but a couple of years ago, I found AIO, and it just blew nova out of the water for me. I look around to see if anything better comes along, but so far, I’ve not seen anything that gets close to AIO for me. It is so customizable, everything on one vertical scrollable screen, email, notifications, calendar, apps, weather. I absolutely love it!
