Lantern fly nymph. Kill it immediately.
And the bug?
Ha! I always do. But I have a friend who has no clue clue why. Could you explain it to him?
TIL what a spotted lanternfly was, they're an invasive species in many places and are spreading. While they aren't directly harmful to humans, they can cause a bunch of damage to plants, which include the ones we as humans tend to enjoy being able to eat. They're considered kill on sight, because many of the places they're spreading to don't have predators to keep them in check (on top of the fact that invasive species throw local ecosystems out of whack).
That's an easy fix. Just release a bunch of parasitic wasps and problem solved
Spiders? There are no spiders here, we released snakes who ate them! What? Oh there are no snakes here, we released crocodiles who ate them. What, ... You don't want to know what happened to the crocodiles?
That's the beauty of it. When winter rolls around the crocodiles will simply freeze to death.
THEY EATIN THE TREES
hey, no one thought you were a bot. The joke is that the guy didn't know anything about what you were talking about about so he pretends that he has a friend that is curious and asks you to explain for the friend instead of for himself.
Like he wanted you to explain to him but he was too embarrassed to asked for the explanation without the fake friend excuse.
Or maybe that user really is a bot, posting screenshots of a conversation with an obvious bot to throw off the suspicion that it is a bot because the LLM predicted "they think I'm a bot" after feeding in that message.
See how the obvious LLM labeled contempt as frustration in the 2nd response?
Maybe you're all bots!
glares about suspiciously
puts on sunglasses to reduce the glare
Lmao this is the dumbest possible response. Your brain has already become soup and LLMs haven’t even been around for very long.
Are you even reading what you’re posting? You didn’t follow the instructions it gave you.
Yes! One of the few things I will immediately kill on sight. Them and mosquitoes. Wasps are much cooler than people give them credit for, and obligatory "spiders are bros".
TIL I'm a spider.
It's sad that they're so destructive because they really do look neat
For safety:
*(right)
Let me guess, you just assumed this women lives in the US where they are invasive?
Looks like it's invasive anywhere that isn't China or Vietnam, and has managed to be a problem for a few countries with several more concerned about it becoming a problem
Umm the us is the only real place? Duh?
