For the vast majority of human history we have just been throwing sticks and stones and just got better at it.
Throwing stones by hand, invent slings to throw stones faster and further, invent siege engines to throw bigger stones even farther.
Throwing sticks by hand, sharpening the sticks into thrown spears, invent the atlal to throw the spears further and with more power, make the sticks smaller and invent bow to shoot them with more speed and even further, invent siege engines to throw bigger sticks with more power.
Guns? Actually just throwing rocks at high speed.
Nuclear bomb? Throwing a special, spicy rock.
It really is just rock chucking all the way down, projectile combat completely broke the meta
it is similar to how any kind of widely used power plant is basically just a steam machine. the difference is how we create the heat, but no matter if we burn coal or split atom there, it is still just a steam machine. if we some day finally manage to get fusion reactors to work, it will still be just a steam machine.
Yep, the antimatter annihilation reactor goes into the boiling water again!
Some of the new fusion startups are looking into aneutronic fusion, in which most of the energy output is directly captured as electricity. They will be using steam-driven generators to take advantage of the waste heat but they will be a secondary component.

Awesome!

MOTHER
FFFFFUUUUC-
cool, i will check it out.
Solar and wind would like a word.
Wind is still using fluid movement to spin a generator 😅 Solar is totally new tek though
We need to figure out a way to boil water by throwing rocks.
Throw rock so hard it hits water with enough force to boil it. Like that old “how hard would I have to slap a chicken to instantly cook it?” thing
Very tiny, very hot rocks.
Rocks that spit bees out of their mouths
We throw neutrons at uranium.
And then the theoretical peak of space combat, throwing big rocks at planets from orbit
Inyalowda deserved that shit, sasa?
Alternatively tungsten rods (rods from god) which is throwing sticks from space
Guns I’ll grant you, but
Nuclear bomb? Throwing a special, spicy rock
“Spicy” is doing a lot of work there lol.
And purposeful shrapnel is just throwing rocks that throw more rocks.
I’d argue we’re still just throwing (highly processed) rocks but much much faster using gunpowder to accelerate them through the tube of handheld devices
RUN THE FUCKING ANIMALS OFF A CLIFF
Or just hang out with them all the time, mostly being nice, so they get used to not running away and we don’t have to find or chase them when we are hungry.
Invent fire.
Invent guns to throw specifically shaped stones at 1000fps using fire.
Wow had 1000fps display this early? Man modern company gotta catch up!
Except for the time we tried poking with pointy sticks and swing sharp sticks. It worked for a while, but then we got even better at throwing sharp sticks further and hit all the stick pokers before they could get close.
Who would’ve thought the puny hairless ape would dominate the entire game? Get rekd animal kingdom
puny hairless apecuks!
Human beings really are the high skill, high reward spec. And like every other game ever, we get a bunch of dead weight teammates that the pros have to carry. We could be competing with other regions (planets/galaxies) already. Smh
Griefers. We have griefers who for some reason, we voted to lead us.
This was written by every megafauna we drove to extinction
Well, except the ones we just drove over cliffs with fire by the hundreds so we could harvest the good bits
Humans are the It Follows nightmare for animals.
I have to separate my cats for feeding and one of them isn’t fond of the process so she runs away from me. I simply follow her at a walking pace saying, “You cannot defeat the persistence predator,” until she gives up. It never takes long.
My cats went offense instead of defense / escape for the period during which I had to do it.
Based Apepilled and Staminamaxxing meta.
just throws sticks
infinite stamina
one part of his kit
Yeah maybe being able to count also helps
TierZoo is the fucking best. He’s also on Nebula for those with a subscription.
Maybe you should keep up with the meta of instead of just spamming the same old strat.
Working fine for the best predator in the sea, even before the dawn of trees. So, meta is the issue.
orcas have entered the chat
Like humans don’t just spam walk strats
it’s like when your buddy backs you against the wall in mortal combat and just spams low kick
Oh you’ll stop playing all right, you and your entire kin.
This is how i feel about apecucks too
Endurance mogged
Bipedal locomotion for efficiency.
Sweat and lack of fur for unmatched heat regulation. Slow and fast muscles for endurance. Numerous other adaptations in feet, ankles and sinuses.Skill issue
Don’t we have the strongest bite force of all the great apes
Relative to size but not overall.
