They can burst move faster than our eyes are capable of seeing. Most of their movements are burst speeds lol. So they effectively are D&D phase spiders XD

Have you tried unplugging your eyes, installing the later firmware and drivers and plugging it back in?

I’m afraid it wont reinstall correctly or I lose the drivers. This hardware is ancient.

Quite often, doom is the only thing that will run.

I can’t be the only one confused about whether this was supposed to be an animated image or not.

There’s a scifi novel called Blindsight by Peter Watts that plays with this exact issue.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct
