Woah. Interesting.
To a Tyrannosaurus (~66 million years ago), the Stegosaurus (~155 million years ago) is as ancient as the Tyrannosaurus is to us.
It is interesting because most people think of “the age of the dinosaurs” as one big piece of time where they were all together.
There is a nice VSauce video on the illusions of time: https://youtu.be/zHL9GP_B30E
That post is actually how I got here. This is my first Lemmy comment ever.
What is the YouTube alternative? That’s what I’m struggling to find. I found PeerTube but couldn’t find much I’d like to watch.
ETA: I like videos like Veritasium and VSauce, Tom Scott, those kinds of things.
