Who is “we”? It certainly isn’t most people. It’s like these interminable “no such thing as a fish” bollocks. Or “AcKsHuAlLy bananas are berries OHOHOHOHO.”
Keep that kind of jargon for your academic articles. In pop-sci contexts like here, it’s not unreasonable to use, but it deserves a health warning because of the intersection of audiences. Insisting that there’s only one correct usage is insufferable.
Fish, interestingly, aren’t a real thing in terms of formal classification
This is misleading. Formal classification existed for a long time before phylogenetic classification became the standard.
Reptiles, as traditionally defined and therefore as usually meant, do not include birds or mammals. It’s a paraphyletic classification (of which there are boatloads).
Mammals, Birds and therefore non-mammal, non-bird amniotes (reptiles) are class-level classifications, as are insects and arachnids.

Sorry I value my time
Non video link? I wasn’t able to find anything that sounded relevant by searching.
In general chemical synthesis is indeed dependent on conditions…
Ok, and what about the rest of the research? https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2018ScTEn.616..255V/abstract
I’m already on social media, I didn’t “take to it.”
So do you think that Israel and Jews or Judaism are one and the same? No?
The symbols are not the same. A swastika emblazoned on an Israeli flag would be a completely different statement.
You know, just the same as there’d be a difference between displaying an alteration of any religious symbol that implies its members are all evil, and displaying an alteration of a flag featuring that symbol. Many flags feature religious symbols.
What do you mean, “get them back”? Do you mean, “pay less tax by listing them as an expense”? Because you still have to pay for them, just not as much.
In casual conversation (such as on an internet forum) “addiction” can also mean “physiological dependence to something not ordinarily necessary”.
Caffeine creates very strong physiological dependence.
In addition, due to its ubiquity, the actual harms of caffeine go unrecognised: people who are caffeine dependent are more tired and irritable when they haven’t had any than if they were not dependent, and also tends to cause headaches and stomach problems.
Well that does sound annoying. I don’t fuck with my phone during a film except to look up actors, so I am more talking about garden variety stupidity.
A star of David entwined with a swastika? Clearly, without a doubt anti-Semitic. It’s saying “Jews are Nazis”.
If you want to convey an anti-zionist message and don’t hate Jews, it’s actually quite easy. Yeah, Israel will still accuse you of being anti-Semitic but they say Jews are anti-semitic if they dare suggest genocide of Palestinians is a bad thing, so we don’t go by that.
People are pushing back on Israel’s “all criticism of Israel is racist” with “no criticism of Israel is racist”. Be fucking better. Stop condoning racism because it aligns with your politics.
Uncanny valley is a perfectly good reason. If you saw an ad with shitty CG I’m sure you’d agree.
Yes but sometimes I miss that information or it’s obvious to other people and not me. So sometimes, I ask my partner.
Since I’m not anti AI (I think it’s a bit crap but I don’t hate it) it’s not that.
I don’t believe your latest question is serious. If you don’t believe that I (along with many others here) find it visually unappealing, there’s nothing left to say. You have to either believe the person you’re talking to or not have a useful conversation - you won’t be able to access my feelings except through what I say about them, will you?
I’m sorry you didn’t like my opinion.
Not sure what your proposal is supposed to say given that I have an example of what I would prefer, and that you seem to be saying that all ads are equally bad.
I can only remember one McDonald’s ad which featured some kind of burger-UFO. That was pretty funny.
They’re all soulless and horrible, but the uncanny valley jank-fest is unsettling in a way that’s worse.
What underlying fact does that teach you? Only that botanists categorise fruits a certain way. Learning that word doesn’t teach you anything about bananas, does it?
