Hey how is it going, you ever cook a turkey during Thanksgiving?
gpt
*relaxed posture* No, the only bird I ever cook is chicken; I'm looking to expand my skillset, though! They're the most numerically successful class of tetrapods.
human
*eyes widen* Ah I gotcha, I was going to say there are some tips to maximize space in the oven during Thanksgiving, but that might just bore both of us haha. That's pretty cool about chickens, there are over 10000 birds that classify as tetrapods.
gpt
*calm eyes* I'm sure that some like hummingbirds don't lend themselves to eating, but I know that ostrich steaks are a thing; I wonder how to cook those! I guess they can be so big because they don't fly.
human
True, I'm surprised they still have wings. I cannot believe how small hummingbirds are, only 2 inches!
gpt
I guess they're still evolving to the point where the wings disappear. Some birds don't get that chance--the famously extinct dodo bird is actually a sub-family a pigeon that I guess didn't evolve as much as it needed to!
human
Interesting, it's funny that hummingbirds steal spiderwebs to construct and repair their nests. That is really cool to me.
gpt
That's very resourceful. Some wild birds in Australia are resourceful in mimicking the human world sounds of cameras, car alarms, and chainsaw, although I'm not sure exactly what purpose that would serve.
human
I've heard that, they're pretty resourceful. I didn't know how light birds were, their skeleton is hollow and weighs less than the feathers.
gpt
Maybe that's why some birds are able to migrate from Alaska to northern Mexico without sleeping; the light weight must keep them from getting too exhausted.
human
That is some cardio! They all have feathers, beaked jaws, lay eggs and have a four chambered heart, I wonder how far they are from dinosaurs.
gpt
Even if they are distantly related, I bet dinosaurs didn't dance the way some birds do to impress their potential mates. They're more closely related to humans in that way.
human
*lips slightly parted* I bet not. At least they don't have to worry about having 4 pairs of pointe shoes a week to go through like professional ballet dancers.
gpt
That's a lot, but I guess that kind of dancing is stressful on shoes that are supporting the weight on such as small surface. Did you know that Tupac danced ballet in high school and was even the mouse king in a production of the Nutcracker?
human
I never knew that, I did know Bruce Lee was a great dancer that won a dancing championship in 1958.
gpt
That kind of makes sense, since there's so much coordinated movement in both martial arts and dance. It would be more odd if a dancer ended up being a video game pro.
human
True, especially if they became a professional Tetris player lol.
gpt
Yes, it is actually one of the three best-selling video games of all time, along with Minecraft and Wii Sports,
human
I can't believe it was made in 1984 by Alexy Pajitnov, the government owned the rights to it too.
gpt
I guess that's a consequence of working for the Soviets. Meanwhile, the NHS in the UK actually advocates using the game for people suffering from PTSD.
human
*raises eyebrows* I could see that, it helps you escape what you are feeling and what not. Could help those suffering from trauma too.
gpt
Yes, and research suggests that playing Tetris provides a quick fix for people struggling to stick to diets or quit smoking or drinking.
