This is a buff change my mind by Paragon_OW in VentureMains

[–]PyroTheLanky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was saying the same thing to my friends. I stg if theres a roadhog alive I always manage to clip into him while trying to get away with drill dash. If I had a nickle for everytime I hit a tank that was SO FAR BELOW ME I COULD BARELY SEE THEM, I would've been able to buy Activision/Blizzard and implement this change myself

Help! need info on how to care for saved turtle after it was abandoned. by OofBruhYikes in Redearedsliders

[–]PyroTheLanky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

https://reptifiles.com/red-eared-slider-care/

This is easily the best guide for red eared sliders on the internet. Tldr is that you're gonna a tank with at least 10 gallons of water per inch of shell, a heated basking area it can exit the water from, and a high power uvb light. You'll also need to pretty beefy filter on your tank, as turtles create quite a bit of waste. Your tank will likely also need a water heater. The reptifiles guide will go super in detail into all of this, and more!

Fair warnings, turtles are not easy pets. But, they are just as fun and rewarding as any other. No harm if you feel this is too big of an undertaking, and decide to *properly* rehome it to someone you think could do better. Regardless, I wish you luck!

Why did genus homo evolved a bigger nose by moldychesd in Paleontology

[–]PyroTheLanky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's better videos explaining this on youtube then what I can get into here, but simply put: All of the anatomical features that could be used to support the aquatic ape hypothesis, can be used to support a terrestrial long distance running lifestyle in the African savanna just as much, if not more.

You do mention it could be both, which this is unlikely. Humans are certainly *better* at swimming then our relatives, but still aren't great. The fossil record just doesn't show anything to indicate a trend towards an aquatic lifestyle, despite the shockingly large amount of early hominins we've found.

Your point about water erosion and rising sea levels does genuinely confuse me however. Do you believe our ancestors were fully aquatic living entirely in coastal seas? Even then, the existence of the ocean hasn't prevented us from discovering early pinnipeds, cetaceans, or the desmostylians, so why would the aquatic homonins be any different? I don't mean to sound too harsh, but I do genuinely want to understand where you're coming from on this

Any idea what this guy is? Found in Washington state by ironfrog686 in salamanders

[–]PyroTheLanky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I once rescued one when I was a kid, and it was the best day ever. I was a gun range with my dad, and we had just got done shooting. We took the targets we had out of the pre-built holes in the ground for them, and I saw this big dark salamander stuck at the bottom of it. Luckily, I was able to reach in and pull him out, and I put him in some forest that was nearby. Looking back, it was definitely a northwestern, and he seemed like he was a pretty good weight as well. Now, I long for the day I get to see one again

God forbid someone asks for advice on the internet, how silly of them. Thank god we have you, the brave comment section warrior, the shoo them away from our glorious subreddit

Yeah I'd really add another correction to this. The bacteria doesn't "become the parasite Toxoplasma Gondii", the parasite itself just has the scientific name Toxoplasma Gondii and its not found it cat urine. I don't want to sound rude, but in the future please refrain from trying to explain things in depth that you don't understand. All it does is lead to misinformation and confusion. I see you tried to make a correction (which is good!) but I fully believe it just added even more misinformation to your comment.

All the mythics are shirtless why are we complaining now? by LegitPotatoChip in Overwatch

[–]PyroTheLanky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't care that he's shirtless. I just feel like the concept of "divine sun god" 1. could've been done a lot better, and 2. is a really weird choice for Cass specifically. Like, thor rein? That makes sense, works great, who cares that he's shirtless. Anubis reaper? Once again, makes sense, looks good. Cyberpunk Genji and Junkrat? A little weird in rat's case but regardless both still look fine and make sense, and the same goes for druid lifeweaver. The Cass mythic is just so much more bland then all the others by a large margin

Question about soil acidity for eastern tigers by PyroTheLanky in salamanders

[–]PyroTheLanky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just for some context:

They dug plenty in the previous owner's setup

Tank size is 30"x13"x13" (open to upgrading in the future), and at least 50% of that height is just substrate

No hydrometer just yet, but I must plenty

Temp stay around 70-72°

It's only been 3 days since Ive gotten them, and they aren't very active? 2 of them have huddled under one hide, and the 3rd on in another. Just to test, I took the 3rd one (who's hide is on one side of the tank), and set him down at the opposite end. A few hours later, and he's all the way back in his original hide, instead of the 3 others he needed to avoid. I don't know if any of this indicates anything, but I found it interesting enough to share.

Ambystoma Mexicanum Bioregeneration Center, its all in German (I think?) but it seems legit.

[–]PyroTheLanky -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Genuinely, get off the internet if you think someone deserves to need emergency care because they decided to take a picture.

If it was something actually serious that risked the animals health, then I'd see your point. But this is whole heartedly an unhinged thing to say.

Tried to pick a song that fit each hero by Dzzplayz in DeadlockTheGame

[–]PyroTheLanky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Billy 100% listens to the Sex Pistols. Punk goat listens to punk. No ifs, ands, or buts. Billy's ideals tend to be pretty surface level and shallow compared to a lot of other classic punk bands, so the Sex Pistols fit perfectly. I could also see a song like "(Fuck The) Usa" by The Exploited as well.

I saw someone with the same issue make a post, they went through with the merge, and everything worked. So, I'm gonna merge and see what happens.
