“Chimpanzees communicate mainly by gestures and facial expressions. They do make noises, but they’re not the most important part like they are for us. Chimps only have four distinct noises, “grunts, barks, screams, and hoots”. The way they distinguish meaning from these is how loud they are and whether they’re low or high pitched.
So chimps don’t need the phonetic range that a human or a bird has. They don’t need their muscles to make the kind of complex sounds that humans use. Evolution made some changes to our anatomy that allow us to make a wide range of sounds, but chimps don’t need that so they never developed it.” —u/WarmerClimates
Where Do Internet Providers Get Their Internet From And Why Can’t We Make Our Own?
“The Internet is like a series of roads. Let’s say you built a road from your house to your friends. You and your friend could go real fast to each other’s houses. But what if you wanted to go to some else’s house? Or the mall, or school? You would have to connect your road with your towns road. You would pay your town money to access their roads from yours, now you can go anywhere in town, and still have direct access to your friends through your road.
But now, your buddy’s neighbor wants to take your private road to get to his house instead of the main road, as a short cut. So your neighbor pays you a monthly fee to get access to your road. Now, you are acting like the ISP. Now let’s say all your neighbors do this. Suddenly, you can’t travel as fast on your road now, there’s too much congestion! So, you have to build another road.” —u/rob132
