    They started defederating with piracy and trans instances and kept pushing a Discord server so I took off.

    Oh and also Beehaw defederated with lemmy.world, and I wanted to see that content.

    Second edit because I was reminded lemmy.world is still planning to federate with Threads, which I also wasn’t okay with.

    I literally corrected the sentence from “hormones” to “selective breeding” and it’s still factual. Simple mistake. I don’t watch shitty Facebook videos, and my brain isn’t rotten… I just miss remembered what I assume was the scene from super size me 2 mentioned by another poster.

    I also included a quote and a citation and my original post about how they grow so large so fast they often collapse under their own weight.

    Truly the greatest of errors misremebering that was because of hormones 🙄

    The explanation behind this is actually pretty disturbing. Due to selective breeding the growth hormones we feed chickens in America, the chickens become fully grown much earlier than usual. It’s like the equivalent of becoming a fully grown adult by the time you are the age of five, but you still have the mental and muscle capacity of a five year old.

    Between 1957 and 2005, chickens raised for their meat quadrupled in size due to selective breeding. They grow to their slaughter weight in just 6 weeks, and their legs often struggle to support their own body weight.

  • The list of Bender’s claimed composition adds up to over 100%, so he can be a dubious source (episode codes in brackets):

    40% Zinc (1ACV13).

    40% Titanium (2ACV03).

    30% Iron (3ACV22), presumably mixed with osmium, (3ACV17).

    40% Dolomite (4ACV07).

    40% Lead (video game).

    40% empty (s07e09)

    40% back (s7e21 Assie come back)

    0.04% Nickel impurity - (3ACV17 - A Pharaoh to Remember)

    There was also a claim that he was 40% chromium (not made by Bender but by someone else - 6ACV03). In addition to those, he’s also claimed to be 40% horseshoes (ITWGY), 40% Wire (7ACV03) and 40% scrap metal (6ACV23), either of which could be any of the above metals or something else.
