🧬⌛ A study of 117 mammal species shows that suppressing #reproduction can boost life expectancy by 10%.
While males benefit from removing the effects of testosterone on aging, females gain longevity by avoiding the high #energy costs of pregnancy and nursing.

Brrr... new introduction time cause my old one is already outdated lol.
I am Sinclair-Speccy, your local resident computer nerd that can’t actually do a lot of tech stuff like people think. My primary interests are #Linux, #OldTech, and #OStan. You’ll usually find me boosting retro tech content and occasionally posting it myself, mostly retro tech ads.
My interest in emulation all started when I managed to run Yggdrasil Linux from the '90s (I know, so interesting /s). Despite having used 😜 as my first OS other older OSes (mostly Linux ones) interest me more if you look at the media I've posted on my account besides the tech ads.
I’ve moved around a bit online as I started on .art as my friend was there, then bitbang.social and now oldbytes.space.
One of my favourite niche fandoms is OS-tans which is turning operating systems and hardware into anime characters, though I tend to call them tech gijinkas. I even have my own tech gijinkas universe that is hosted on my site.
As for some other stuff I enjoy #mythology, #transformers, #cats, #touhou, #fantasy, #nature such as #flowers and #plants and #animals, #steampunk, #starwars, #photography, #art, #space, #cyberpunk and #scifi... there is more but I'm not writing them all.
You can check out my website here: https://sinclair-speccy.github.io/The-Mainframe/index.html and I hope to expand it into a tech journalism platform or something, though motivation and its static nature kind of stop me...
Unlike in the past I'm not active as I used to be, sadly.

Another picture of Max
I put multiple bells on his collar to make sure birds and mice can hear him coming
Now he's so loud, I can usually tell where he is, even when he's streets away
But I think he's annoyed because I made him look like a Christmas tree and sound like Santa's sleigh
Do Cows Use Tools? This One Does.
A pet cow named Veronika can scratch her own back with a broom — the first scientifically documented case of tool use in cows, researchers say.

Indonesia’s environment ministry is seeking $284 million in environmental damages from six companies it has linked to deadly floods and landslides triggered by Cyclone Senyar in November.
The areas affected include Batang Toru, an ecologically fragile ecosystem home to the Tapanuli orangutan, the world’s rarest great ape.

🐈👅 When a cat licks you, they aren't just trying to clean you – they’re designating you as a "preferred associate."
Animal behaviorists explain that this social grooming, or allogrooming, is a #behavior learned from their mothers to strengthen bonds and show trust.

🐑🐐 While #sheep and #goats often share the same pastures, a "geep" – a natural hybrid of the two – is incredibly rare.
Because sheep have 54 chromosomes and goats have 60, most pregnancies aren't successful. However, every few years, a healthy hybrid with 57 chromosomes is born, featuring a unique mix of woolly coats and goat-like features.
