I don't really know what to think of this except that if he makes a cyborg dragon...I want to pet it.

I'm just wondering how will it be organic...  Is he going all Dr. Moreau on us now?

No, they have distinctions that separate them.

Dragons are basically generic derivatives.

depends on who you talk to

‘Dragon’ in pop culture often refers to a whole category of monsters that tend to be covered in scales with a long thick tail, often bat-winged with four or six limbs. Multiple heads are also possible. Their intelligence varies from animalistic to smarter than humans, the smarter ones tend to be able to use the same magic (or even stronger kinds) than humans. Fire or poisonous breath is common though you can also find more exotic takes like lightning or ‘fear’.

In settings where ‘Dragon’, ‘Wyvern’, ‘Drake’ refer to different species, dragons tend to have six limbs, two being wings.

 

If you want to consider them as different, then based on biology they would be cousins, sharing many genetic features and anatomies. Meaning you either think wyverns are species of dragons or wyverns and dragons are species of a larger category.

I think using the word cousin is the wrong term in this situation, but the proper term would be a seperate species under a Genus they all fall under.

 

But who cares, I'll take one of each type

If you're watching them go wild does that mean you enjoy watching yiffing?

Dragons are physical embodyments of magic and bad backstory.

havent looked into the backstories there, but drakes being wingless kinda takes the fun out of it for me, it's just a wolf with dragon armor and a cooler head, wyrms (worms) are basically gyarados from pokemon, which is ok, but i prefer the flight aspect in wyverns and dragons.

Wyverns are the coolest looking to me, though i feel without the second set of legs associated with dragons, it's going to be very hard to balance.

is it gonna use the flamethrower he posted about some time ago?

Wyrms are (sometimes) wingless and usually guardians/offspring/pets/tools of/for gods.

Drakes are basically smaller, magicless Western dragons. They're Apex Predators, and not a single shred of their badassness can be attributed to magic. Sometimes they're hellspawn, sometimes they were/are denizens of different realms.

Wyverns are basically Eastern dragons, and have all sorts of backstories.

 

Whereas Dragons exist only due to magic.

Yea, funny thing is any car can crash into walls. Stop hating. Reality is the driver was likely too busy on their phone and hit the wrong pedal, I'm not joking about this there are youtube compilations of this happening...

They are referring to the red tesla a few days ago that crashed into the gym.

Hadn't heard about it, but just looked into it and found this

The driver reportedly claimed the vehicle accelerated after she hit the brakes, though a Tesla representative said similar incidents in the past revealed that the driver accidentally pressed on the accelerator instead of the brake.

So yeah not the car's fault, and can i ask why she was close enough to and facing the direction of a gym wall while driving at a high enough speed to plow through a buildings walls like that?

For a Tesla it's not about speed but the torque it can push and if she owned the P/AWD version thats worst, plus it's a SUV that went threw what seems to be a glass storefront (made for easy modifications), and the divider walls in those units are a joke.

 

Also holly F I never watched a video about it till now... But Whats that funny white thing in her hand  Looks a lot like a phone to me...

I remember the good old days when Tesla was small,  the preorders where finally coming to Canada with the Model S and only the smart people drove them... Now any dumb schmuck with the money can buy one... And this is what we get, 100% power with 100% stupid.

that video is hilarious, and she went through a glass store front and a drywall interior wall and plowed through a weight stand! It looks to me like she was driving too fast in the first place, then accidentally hit the gas and went faster and plowed right thru. As to your point of the good old days, I don't think that matters, if anything the existence of self driving will eventually remove this risk altogether as manual driving is slowly removed from society. Tesla making more cars is great for the economy and will only further the advancement of society, plus let's not pretend people don't crash into buildings with normal cars
