As far as I know, the purpose of yawning isn’t really understood, but it’s present in nearly all land vertebrae. Maybe it’s a universal bug in the breathing animation code.

            we’re got hardware. that’s the stuff we write hardware software and firmware on.

            what the heck is “wetware”? what’s that tech? it’s new to me.

              I just told you. I’m speaking of the human brain.

              Wetware is a term drawn from the computer-related idea of hardware or software, but applied to biological life forms.

              The prefix “wet” is a reference to the water found in living creatures. Wetware is used to describe the elements equivalent to hardware and software found in a person, especially the central nervous system (CNS) and the human mind.

                  I agree. I’m getting pretty tired of your condescending tone. I’ve looked past your false accusation about me supposedly downvoting you, ignored the rude “explain or GTFO” remark, and even politely asked you to clarify what you were asking so I could give you a more helpful answer - but you just keep going with the same behavior.

                  You have a nice day.

                    i hope you have a nice day, too, but you still didn’t explain how “wetware” is written, assuming we live in a simulation. that’s what this is all about, right? i didn’t mean to make accidentally make you feel something…

      i see your opinion (it’s a small world; voting is pretty clear). do you care to argue for it, or are you happy with your downvote?
