Every centipede you see equals ~700 dead spiders that aren’t living in your house laying eggs and biting you. You’d have WAY more spiders without them

These little guys can live for up to 7 years so be sweet to them.
I look at them like this: If a company made a little robot that does it’s best to stay hidden from your view, crawls through the innards of your home in search of spiders, bed bugs, termites, and ants, it would probably cost thousands of dollars.

28·12 days agonah hard disagree. Flash was the core of the web and it got gutted so Apple and Google so leach their 30% cut from their app stores. HTML / JS is still a buggy piece of crap that depends on what the major browser makers declare is valid, no better than adobe had with flash. Flash was the browser in the browser and they hated it.

28·12 days agolmao thanks for the laugh. HTML / JS is still a buggy pile of slop. Apple and Google both dropped support so they could stop Flash from providing app experiences through the browser and forced people into their own app stores. Flash was installed on 99% of computers around the world. It was top tier web and it STILL hasn’t recovered. The current web experience is complete garbage in comparison.

32·13 days agoRelax. I do think she wrote the book herself but also took heavy inspiration from Dippel and never credited the story. This would be like someone hanging around Castle Dracula, writing a book called Dracula, and then claiming the story “came to me in a dream”.

49·13 days agoIt’s not proven but some folks think she wasn’t ahead of her time and stole her story. I wouldn’t believe it myself but it’s sort of hard when she was hanging around “Castle Frankenstein” that was rumored to have a grave robbing scientist that lived there who did experiments to bring creatures back to life…
From a bot: The breakdown of the claims behind this theory includes:The “Mad Scientist” of Castle Frankenstein: Johann Conrad Dippel, an alchemist and physician, was born at Burg Frankenstein (near Darmstadt, Germany) in 1673. Local legends—largely popularized long after Shelley’s time—claimed he practiced grave robbing, boiled bones to create an “elixir of life” (known as Dippel’s Oil), and attempted to transfer souls between corpses.
The Travel Connection: In 1814, Mary Shelley, her step-sister Claire Clairmont, and Percy Bysshe Shelley traveled down the Rhine River. They stopped in Gernsheim, Germany, which is roughly 10 miles away from Castle Frankenstein. This proximity led some pop-historians to theorize that she visited the castle or heard local tales of Dippel from boat captains along the river.
The Lack of Documentation: Mary Shelley’s detailed journals and letters from that 1814 trip make no mention of Castle Frankenstein, Dippel, or local ghost stories. When the travelers ran low on money, they rushed back to England, leaving very little time for unauthorized detours.
Where the Name Came From: Shelley famously stated that the core concept of the novel came to her during a waking dream at Lord Byron’s house in Switzerland during the “Year Without a Summer” (1816), after a late-night ghost-story challenge. As for the name “Frankenstein,” it is a real German surname meaning “stone of the Franks”. Linguistic and literary historians note that it was a striking, gothic-sounding word she likely encountered or naturally synthesized, without needing a specific real-world blueprint. Ultimately, while the parallels between Dippel’s legends and Victor Frankenstein’s fictional misadventures make for a fascinating modern urban legend,
