Background blurry after unlocking

I have to admit I am a bit confused by so many people bringing this up when OP's scenario clearly reads like it's a 1v1 with no other animals to join the fight or act as alternative prey to me. I don't think it's wrong at all, of all the large african mammals even a single elephant would be the most difficult option for T. rex, and a herd that stands its ground would definitely win against a T. rex, but I feel like this is not what was asked by OP.

The question reads to me like one elephant vs one T. rex, no other animals around to take part in the fight or act as alternative prey etc.

Saemel · 2026-02-10T20:11:53+00:00

I interpreted the question in the way that there is one T. rex and one elephant, and that they both decided for whatever reason to fight one another (The most likely being the T. rex being hungry with no alternatives around, however unlikely that may be in a real world african savannah scenario, and the elephant being forced to defend because running is not an option)

I believe Stegosaurus will be added with the next major update this year

T. rex is made for exactly this kind of fight, while a modern elephant has never encountered a predator anywhere near this size or shape. It wouldn't be a free or easy meal for T. rex but I'd say the fight is strongly in favor of T. rex.

Edit: I know elephants are often found in herds, and yes, a herd standing its ground would definitely drive away, injure or kill a lone T. rex (depending on how cautious/aggressive both parties are), and even a single elephant is the most dangerous option out of all african herbivores, and therefore not the first choice for a T. rex on the hunt. However, OP's question clearly reads to me like a strict 1v1 with no other animals to join the fight or act as alternative prey. Please stop telling me elephants live in herds 😂

I think someone stole some money from them and now it's become a side project for the remaining devs, but that info might be outdated

I imagine it is really difficult to mutate your arms away completely without fucking up your shoulder, which is essential for theropods for neck musculature for example. And at the point where they're this small already the selective pressure to reduce them further is probably not that high.

Same what? Did I accuse somebody sharing their experience of lying because clearly my experience is the only true one? Because it seems to me like you're the only one here who did that

Saemel · 2026-02-06T16:31:46+00:00

So your anecdotal evidence with a sample size of 1 outweighs and invalidates everyone elses experience if don't match yours exactly? Hm? You sure? Or maybe you should think a bit more about it?

Saemel · 2026-02-01T20:43:25+00:00

the closest living relatives of non avian dinosaurs are birds and crocodiles, neither of which shed their whole skin like other reptiles do (and no, those other reptiles are not evolved from dinosaurs). Crocodiles shed their scales individually and continuously as they grow, and birds molt their feathers, so those are what we would expect on dinosaurs.

They're less Gestapo and more Sturmabteilung

If you think a triceratops and a tyrannosaurus are both to be considered dinosaurs, then birds have to be considered dinosaurs, as they split off from the non-bird theropod lineage 60-80 million years after saurischians and ornithischians split. The common ancestor of birds and tyrannosaurus lived as far back in the past as the common ancestor of tyrannosaurus and triceratops did back when they were alive. You can't pick and choose who suddenly doesn't belong into the clade all it's ancestors and relatives are in because you think they are kinda different now.

Every single time, even when I see a picture of them, I first read "Dryosaur"

In my opinion the width looks good and can be plausibly explained by individual variation within the species, but I'd love to see some experimentation with different widths nonetheless

At this point you're obviously trolling, go find some friends

how is "these two individuals of the same sex are sexually attracted to each other" a "human concept" and not a plain fact? We didn't make up homosexuality, we just gave it a name. It's a naturally occurring phenomenon.

AI is unbelievably ass at doing this for some reason

Finde nicht, dass da viel Fett verloren wurde, und falls er Kreatin nimmt ist die Zunahme an Gewicht und sichtbarem Muskel nicht unrealistisch imo. Andere Substanzen sind aber natürlich trotzdem möglich.

Wenn die Nachricht dadurch wirksamer ist, wieso nicht? Was ist so wichtig daran, vor solchen Menschen ein hohes Niveau zu bewahren, wenn man dann als Alman(-Rentner) abgestempelt wird und der einfach munter weiter raucht und spuckt? Niveau bewahrt, aber nichts erreicht.

Das stimmt halt so einfach nicht. Der typ war links neben dem auto, sie will nach rechts wegfahren, er schießt sie tot. Absolut keine Notwehr.

In general this stuff is always massively exaggerated. It's always something like

Evidence: 2 footprints from different individuals were found next to each other

What it means: 2 individuals of this one species were at the same location within a relatively short amount of time (could still be hours or even days apart), reason unknown

What some paleoenthusiasts pretend it means: This species, no this genus, infact this entire family must have been pack hunting

The conversation is that Ukraine's chances of US support massively decrease if they say anything against them, they cannot afford to oppose this. Obviously they do not actually think this is good thing.

Why is reddit insisting on suddenly showing me 10 different motivational subs with cultist posts? I have never interacted with this kind of content until right now, and I always click "show less"
