Aren’t these changes, because there are just have bones to look at, so skin properties etc are a guessing game?
But how did that jaw bone double in length in 2001? Was the skull a missing part until then?

Uh, damn! I had the impression that a lot of governments around the world rely on the theory that talk is enough!
That makes sense, I guess. Like to choose a skillset for the next epoch, if you’re right. That sounds kinda cool. Almost like a skill tree for your civ, only that it comes with a civ name change.
The second big change is that when you transition from one age to the next—there are three ages, Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern—you’ll pick a new civilization to lead, one that was at the height of its power during the age in question. So you might go from controlling Rome in Antiquity to Mongolia during the Exploration age.
Well, I still play civ4 bts, never went beyond civ5 and unless I update my hardware probably won’t try civ6 and civ7 anytime soon.
But what you mean, you’ll change civilization midgame? I can’t wrap my head around this concept. Or does your civilization simply change it’s name?
The other 3% probably aren’t all climate change deniers.
I would guess that a large chunk of those are more like ‘the data is not sufficient or good enough to be absolutely, absolutely certain’.
I use mosquito coils, they are very effective.
I also have an electric bat, although it’s more for the phycho fun of killing than helping reducing bites. They are just too many.
I tried lemongrass as a natural deterrent but had the impression it made no difference.
What works best for me is: slapping those you can while not caring about the rest. Because once you start to scratch it’s a vicious cycle, so I don’t touch stings and usually then forget about them shortly after.
Maybe they are different. I live in Asia. From what I heard there are many mosquito species, but the majority not blood sucking or at least not human blood sucking. Only few species carry disease, if I recall correctly.
To be fair, when I’m preoccupied, I also don’t feel them always. Or I feel them but my hands are busy, so I can’t slap them. I often have this at night, when I’m playing PC games and my feet get stung up. It’ll be like “ouch, my foot! Gotta slap that mosquito, but first I finish this in game. And then this.” Procrastinating until it’s too late.
I believe ankles are prime for them due to thin skin.
One mosquito died, writing this comment.
The article:
This positive news comes after the first patient ([Noland Arbaugh]) suffered major issues with his implant, with only 10-15% of the electrodes still working after receiving the implant in January. The issue of electrode threads retracting was apparently a known issue years prior already.
I disagree. I live in mosquito land and get bitten a lot. I’d say the majority of mosquitos biting me, I feel when they land, before they bite. Probably half of those I can either slap or miss and they take off again and try again. There are some spots though where I don’t feel them land. The annoying ones are those I feel touching me but they don’t land, they just fly around. Those are hard to slap.
Unrelated question: does anybody happen to know if the biting time matters for transmitting disease?
2 mosquitos died on me while typing out this comment.
You’re right. I didn’t even notice the second jeep before. It looks like this was done on purpose, which is kind of stupid, especially on the jeep driving behind the other. The grill is there to protect the radiator from debris. Once the radiator gets hit by a a small rock and starts to leak, which can happen quickly, as they are usually made of very thin metal, you’d have to constantly monitor engine heat and fill up cooling water regularly.

This was an accidentally duplicated comment due to poor mobile data service in my area.
I don’t think this would improve cooling, as the bottleneck of airflow is probably the radiator, not the grill.
All I can guess is that the grill was damaged and removed.
Edit: accidentally commented this twice due to poor mobile data service.
Oh, sorry I misread your first comment.
First: acriculture is a major greenhouse gas contributor, globally.
The amount of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture is significant: The agriculture, forestry and land use sectors contribute between 13% and 21% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Source: Wikipedia
I’m not sure how they affected by climate action. I can only assume it’s a sector, where it’s very difficult to remove emissions, unlike other sectors without impacting the crop amount? Like reducing farm animals or fertilizers and machinery?
Here is a short breakdown of emissions in agriculture from “ourworldindata.org”.
Unfortunately my hardware is too old to play games that are like that.
But I’ve noticed the same with mobile games. My policy is: if that single player game doesn’t start without internet access it gets deleted.
It propably grabbed the info off some random number-confusing dude like me, who recently posted the Earth’s diameter would be about 6 km instead of 6000.
Edit: oops, did it again. Meant radius, not diameter…
Land use (and with that agriculture) has a lot to do with emissions. Imagine a forest cleared to farm palm oil. All that stored carbon is now in the atmosphere. Think about the staple crop rice emitting methane, due to the nature of water submerged fields.
If not emissions, water usage is also a big concern. Like farming water intensive crops in areas where water is sparse, just because the crop is very profitable, but maybe not very nutritious.
I always considered dying sleeping one of the better ways to go. But since I woke up some years back, I don’t want to fall asleep again. Despite being so tired of all of this!
Such a interesting time frame to be alive! Humanity is in a race against itself. Losing could not only mean the end of humanity, but of vast forms of life on Earth. And it’s an uphill race of common democratic people racing against the rich, who own the means we need to win.
Almost like a movie, however, I feel in a movie there wouldn’t be as many people shrugging shoulders and looking away.
Totally agree. I just witnessed my sister delivering her baby a few days back.
As always I will keep reading about every year’s COP. However, by now my expectation is, that there won’t be much, if anything at all, that I need to know about the COP.
