Carnival of Evolution #45

Categories:

The latest Carnival of Evolution is buggy in more ways than one: I couldn’t get it to load in Mac Firefox with all my adblockers in place (but it worked fine on Google Chrome), and also every link is full of bugs. Literal bugs, not the software kind.

All I can say is that it needs more squid. Then not only would it be prettier, but it would be slick and smooth and supple.

The Carnival of Intelligent Design: Look, a whim of God. And there’s another whim of God! And still another….

ID is thinking the Designer’s disconnected and meaningless tripe after him.

Works fine for me on this optimized-for-Windows version of Firefox (Palemoon).

I could check on my Kubuntu laptop, but I don’t feel like getting up.

Hmm, Chrome seems to have messed me up on my first attempt to reply, even though it worked great on the CoE presentation. Anyhoo, slides 3 and 6 both had earwigs. I hate those things. Nothing creeps me out like earwigs. Give me tentacles any time.

I can see I’ve got a couple of hours to waste this evening following the links.

Seems to be working fine on Firefox.

Pretty cool, but where are all the Hemiptera?

Yes. More squid. Breaded and deep fried or, better yet, grilled with olive oil and garlic. Nom Nom.

Thanks for the link! I’ve had a squid-load of visits, very humbling.

My company firewall has blocked the link because it falls under the category “Hate Speech”

Must be interesting….

Works great in Opera mobile on a Xoom tablet.
