>>5106420ai slop didn't start until 2022 or so, it basically timed perfectly with ethereum switching to proof of stake. The demand for nvidia gpu chips would have dropped with the death of crypto mining, but instead it exploded. Really, videos that were good enough to trick people didn't happen until last year. Pic related was from May of 2024.

>https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20251121IPR31539/protection-of-dogs-and-cats-deal-on-eu-rules-to-stop-abuse>Mandatory microchipping and registration of all dogs and cats in the EU It's happening. The EU has taken the firs step into preventing crush porn. It's a small step but a huge one at the same time. Crush porn enthusiasts torture animals for their entire lifetimes. They will never be caught, they will bury animals in the forest, in their yards, or just throw in the trash can. There will never be an investigation, nobody is looking to prevent animal abuse like we actively strive to prevent and detect human/child abuse. In china it's not even illegal to torture animals so pic related, they do it in the open and you can even get paid to be a professional cat deleter.But now a first step has been taken in registering all cats and dogs.We ultimately need to copy/paste all procedures in place to stop child abuse and use them very same ones for animals. It's the only way to keep all animals safe.But now, if you dump an animal and its not microchipped, there will be a police investigation. EUROPEAN ANIMAL ABUSERS ARE FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW. THEIR LITTLE DAILY ANIMAL TORTURE IS ABOUT TO GET NERFED
>>5106514>understanding emotions, having the empathy to perceive this very physical, real, chemical process that happens and influences on conscience, is the same as being ruled like a womanNo, it just means empathy, understanding the process. Try to solve this quizz: animals and humans feel pain exactly the same way. Therefore, there is no logical difference to treat animals and humans differently at a logical level.The only way you could justify different treatment, would be through emotions: "but I think i'm more important"Logically you cannot make the argument that animals should be treated differently. Real men follow logic, real men are mostly gone now
>>5106546>Therefore, there is no logical difference to treat animals and humans differently at a logical level.wrong. animals aren't people therefore it is illogical to treat them as if they are people, it's as simple as that.
>>5106546>animals and humans feel pain exactly the same way. Therefore, there is no logical difference to treat animals and humans differently at a logical level.so are you gonna lock up all the ranchers? what about the pest control people? rats and mice certainly feel pain. or how about the lions eating an antelope alive? gonna send them to jail too?
>>5106546False promise, no true scotsman, god knows what else, and of course, you’re known by your fruitsRegulatory overreachMalnourished infantsEntire malnourished former-civilizations (veganism destroyed the indian race)Stolen and slaughtered petsTerrorist attacks on farms and research facilitiesAdmitting you would destroy a human life for the sake of a pest cat
>>5106550*false premiseMaybe begging a question ackshuallyVegan ethics are faithless tautologies, shitty religions. At least bible thumpers have the creator of the fucking universe to listen to and his supposed laws are remarkably concordant with natural law. Vegans have “the virtue of being logical and righteous” “because its righteous and logical”
Podcaster Joe Rogan has warned that mountain lions are running riot in certain states and eating household pets, demanding politicians do more to address the problem.“One of the things they found out in San Francisco in the Bay Area was when they do shoot these mountain lions, they’ve done an analysis of their diet. It’s 50 percent dogs."“They’re doing nothing to curb the population. And this is the thing is like people go, ‘Oh, it’s OK Let nature do its thing.’ No, it doesn’t do its thing. It kills your dog, OK?” he said.He continued: “Fifty percent of their diet is eating people’s pets. So, they’re hunting people’s pets. That means you are, if you’re a dog lover, you’re allowing a monster to eat your dog because you think that’s the right thing to do and to be kind with nature."“No, you have to hunt them. You have to get them the f*** away from you."Rogan went on to share a story about Hanes being pursued by a mountain lion while out for an evening jog and commented: “That is the consequences of letting monsters live in your neighborhood."The host concluded by suggesting that trophy hunting should be rebranded as “monster control” to attract broader support, signing off by saying: “I love animals, but I am on Team People.”Comment too long.

>>5084698That cat is a fucking unit.
>>5105038>Cougars are ecologically more valuable than 99% of humans and 100% of petsCompletely false
>>5085470Retarded pseudoscience with no basis in reality.
>>5106432Completely true. Pets serve no purpose whatsoever.
>>5084961Because Humans are overpopulated, so we project onto animals the controls that we're no willing to impose upon ourselves.
Tell us, friends, what are your thoughts on the Orange People and their delightful facial features?
>>5106187He looks nothing like Rory
>>5096043why do baby macaques always look like their on the verge of tears?

>>5106329If you knew what they knew, you'd be on the verge of tears too
>>5090828Do these threads happen often?? I fucking love monkeys and this is kino
>>5106339
Oak thread? I like the bicolor.
Q. phellos is my favorite. I like oaks with unoak like leaves.
>>5106375Hipster.
I have a bunch of lithocarpus glaber in pots. They don't look like oaks that much.
I love oaks and oak galls
Post raccs, save pics of raccs, discuss raccs! Here is a critter embiggining for the winter months.

Too fat.

General for the discussion of rodent care with a focus on rats3 year old editionPic rel is Burroughs taken in June who passed on Saturday at about 3 years old>Rats need love >Rats need companionship >Rats need free roam time >Other rodents welcome Rat first aid: http://neratsociety.co.uk/articles/firstaid.shtml Good and bad food: https://squeaksandnibbles.com/safe-foods-for-rats/
>>5105341We try to also be a rodent general thread here but it's slow for replies to not-rat questionsAsk here and we'll do the best we can
If God gave me three wishes one of them would be for rats to live healthy for ten years or so. Hopefully one day genetic engineering allows us to help our rodent friends out.
>>5092154rule 1: be attractiverule 2: don't be unnatractiveif chad has pet rats it's quirky and adorable, if you have pet rats it's weird and offputting
>>5061960Have that rat "taken care of." lol. kek.
>>5105935There's an irony in giving up on God to wait for science but the other side, God helps those who help themselvesI guess you gotta study genetic engineering now anon

temperate climate northern hemisphere bros... spring is almost here. The air already smells different and better than w*nter air
Hi /plant/, I did it, I have bought a PLANT. What am I in for?
Leeeets gooookk
They are neat. I wonder what their underside looked like.
>>5105689https://www.trilobites.info/trilovent.htm
>>5105673Basically water roaches. I like them
I like 'em
>>5105673I find it very weird the no species of trilobite adapted to land has ever been found.They existed for hundreds of millions of years, an like most arthropds, seem pre-adapted for walking on land.hell, there isn't even evidence of fresh water trilobites, shit is just weird.
I would like to honour the memory of Triceratops, how would I do this /an/? Should I help birds out even tho they're merely just distant cousins of the ornithiscians?
Cave paintings and rock carvings.
>>5106439This. Go to a random cave and paint a Triceratops using only your hands
>>5106433Styracosaurus was way cooler
Post birds, appreciate birds

Keep in mind that nuclear weapons would be useless against them and since they possess human-level intelligence, they will quickly figure out how to sabotage drones, take down power lines/grids, organize well-coordinated attacks, etc.
>>5104914Oh yeah, a bird that just got a little extra pattern recognition is suddenly going to know how to go after hardened substations, underground cables, and sodium cooled microreactors. It would take them years to figure out what above ground power lines do. And it takes breakage to destroy those. All we have to do is turn the lights up, leave them on all night, and blare electric wizard 24/7 and every bird would die of stress without even being able to think of a solution
>>5105067Birds with human level intelligence wouldn't just sit around in slingshot range like those ones the Chinese killed. No, we're smart enough to keep out of sight and gather in remote, hidden locations.
>>5105142please refer to >>5103936There's simply no place in the world where birds can just gather and hide in safety to build their nests that's not in range of human missiles, or out of the scope of human radars. And yes, there is such thing as birds radars, as a matter of fact, all air radars, be it weather or military, are bird radars after a few technical adjustments.
>>5105080>Oh yeah, a bird that just got a little extra pattern recognitionHuman-level intelligence isn't just a little extra pattern recognition
>>5105142>No, we're smart enough to keep out of sight and gather in remote, hidden locations
Fuck yeah
>>5015324>>5016213lots of people say giraffes can shatter lions apart with a single kick but I've never seen them kick a lion and not have it just mildly inconvenienced.
>>5095221only humans get cut once and die instantly, everything else heals comically well and fast, every other animal just has antibacterial soap for saliva compared to us
how the fuck is this thread almost a year old
>>5004143what a pawg

I finally understood why women and low test beta males love catsbecause they like being dominated and commanded
>>5104869>Red meat is not a carcinogen. You’re rambling like a schiozphrenic. red meat is a class 2a carcinogen according to the WHO, and class 1 if we include processed red meat. now please go ahead and shit your pants because I cited the WHO.>Got a problem? Go pay $1k for an epi pen yes price gouging drugs like insulin is bad, no argument there. I am saying that "big pharma" entities contribute a net positive to humanity. the alternative to big pharma is jeet tier unproven homeopathic garbage.
>>5104900Now cite the WHO’s actual data. Its gen pop slop. Better yet, tell me the specific carcinogenic chemical. Protip: muscle tissue is not carcinogenic. Blackening it on a grill is. Fucking intestinal microabrasions from eating too many plants could be carcinogenic. Don’t be stupid. They issued a political statement, not a medical one. These are the same people who advocate for alpha gal syndrome.
>>5104900The WHO also advocates for the forceful circumcision of non-consenting male infants without anesthesia because a study of promiscuous african men found that circumcized africans were less likely to transmit and contract HIV and actively denies hard data showing permanent neurological damage and measurable unwanted temperamental changes.
>>5104900>red meat is a class 2a carcinogen according to the WHOhow insanely dumb do you have to be to beleive WHO in current year. jesus christ.they say its carcinogenic because it has some haemo iron which can be carcinogenic if you OD on it. yet they don't list anything else with haemo iron to be a carcinogen, eg sardines or liver, which have like 10x the amount.
