Holy shit I did not expect that. A lot of the same mannerisms are there in proto-form but he's actually talking like a human it's super weird to see

Spray cheese, Ritz, topped with a pizza roll. It was one of my "treating myself" staples in college

"It swings its long neck like a whip and smacks its opponents. This makes Exeggutor itself dizzy, too." Amazing

We're midway through passing the blame torch. Soon they'll drop the millennial part and it'll just be "gen Z is killing an expensive or shitty industry how could they!"

"pay that debt later on", nothings more permanent than temporary. In my experience things are more likely to default than get paid lol

That looks like sod. Basically the grass is pre-grown in a thin layer in top of a plastic sheet then cut in strips to get moved. New grass seed is very fragile, takes a while to root, and is basically a big mud pit. Sod can get an area up and running a lot more quickly and reduce the chance of the landscape changing before the grass can take hold

I bought a 1200w PSU in like 2011 and it's chugging along through multiple upgrades and two different builds. They forgot to put the quit in that one

I did read about damaging effects of oyster farms though

Yeah no monoculture farm is without it's damage, for sure, but oysters are real low on the list. They are filter feeders so don't need any additional food source or fertilizer you just seed them somewhere and pull them out as needed. A single one filters something like fifty gallons of water a day, capture carbon for their shells, and they're incredible at pulling heavy metals out of the water but that's not something they're utilized for at scale afaik because then humans wouldn't want to eat those ones

I am not a biologist but my understanding is that largely has to do with a lack of central nervous system. It would be like asking if a heart is aware of itself. It can autonomously react to things like low oxygen but that isn't because those signals go anywhere that makes a decision it's more like a chemical/biological Rube Goldberg machine. If you really want to get down to it though I don't think we can know for certain just make educated guesses, and imo oysters are even less likely to have any form of consciousness than a lot of plants or mushrooms
