Tree Net

Trees have been known to communicate with other trees through their roots. They relay information about the conditions in the soil like having too many pests or poor sunlight. 
I thought they just log on 😂. The floor of a forest or the woods is a communication network for trees and bushes.

New Encyclopedia

There is a new encyclopedia created that was written by artificial intelligence. It is called Grokipedia. It was created by Elon Musk's ai company xAI. 

You can visit the Grok ai now at https://grokipedia.com/

Grok ai does it's own research and searches for the truth. It is a machine, it isn't biased, it doesn't have opinions about things or people so it only wants to display the truth. 

I have already created a shortcut to it on my Android desktop. 

The online encyclopedia Wikipedia has had issues with biased authors recently, politicians and activists being labelled as far right and statements about companies that aren't true. Even historical events being changed to suit the opinion of the editors. 

When I tried Grokipedia, it was dark like a dos prompt screen so I changed it to light mode.

Stegasaurus and Tyrannosaurs Rex

The stegasaurus and Tyrannosaurs Rex never met because the stegasaurus went extinct in the Jurassic period and the Tyrannosaurs  Rex was around in the Cretaceous period. When the Tyrannosaurs Rex was around, the Stegasaurus was extinct for 80 million years. 
We are closer in time to Tyrannosaurs Rex than the Tyrannosaurs Rex was to stegasaurus. The Gap between Us and Tyrannosaurs Rex was 66 million years. The Gap Between Tyrannosaurus rex and stegasaurus is 80 million years. 

In the movie Jurassic park, Tyrannosaurs Rex didn't belong there because it wasn't from that time period.

Before the Dinosaurs

Before the Dinosaurs were around on Earth, the dominant group of Animals that roamed the earth were the  Permian Synapsids. They were bizarre looking mamal like reptiles. Some of them had spines on their back. 
If you saw a Permian Synapsid, you would see a creature that looks both like reptile and a mamal at the same time. 

It is thought they went extinct because of frivalous volcanism, or several super volcanoes erupting in tandem. The food chain was wipe out by acid rain and cold weather because of dust from the volcanoes.
