First hominin muscle reconstruction shows 3.2 million-year-old 'Lucy' could stand as erect as we can
  • The paper touches on this in its introduction. I can't explain how they did it, because the details are too technical for me.

    However, the method they used comes from this paper here, where they reconstructed an extinct archosaur's legs by using an extant crocodile species. If I understood it correctly, they were able to verify the technique by then applying it to a gorilla's shoulder.

    Digital modelling of legendary fossil's soft tissue suggests Australopithecus afarensis had powerful leg and pelvic muscles suited to tree dwelling, but knee muscles that allowed fully erect walking.

    How has ur lemmy experience been so far?
  • There's a "Goldilocks Zone" when it comes to amounts of users that Lemmy is still pretty far from IMO. A few hundred thousand people would already make the place feel alive without losing the communal feeling, like what Reddit had around a decade ago or more.

    Can't see posts on own instance

    Basically title.

    I'm able to post something on my instance and access it directly through the link, but I won't be able to see it on the front page. However, it does appear in a private window.

    This link appears to me, logged in, as follows:

    !

    Is there a setting or something that is causing this? I've previously posted something that did appear, in a community I've since purged, but yet another post does not.

    Removing communities as admin

    Apologies if there's an obvious way to do it, but I couldn't find it. Is there a way to remove communities using the web interface, without having to touch the server?
