It has six legs, so this is technically an insect.

[–] hswolf@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

you're right, but the bad kind of right

[–] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Nah, see, the other two legs are smaller at the top (back?) of the spiderouter.

[–] swab148@lemm.ee 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I dunno, those are pretty bendy. Looks more like antennae to me

What is a bite? Is it between bits and bytes? 4 bits?(thats a nibble)

[–] ramble81@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Bite was a word pun. The technical term is “bytes” however it’s pronounced “bites” which is also the term for what a spider would do to you. And one that big would be a “mega bite”

The biggest spiders are fine. We allow them in our houses. It's the little spiders that Australians worry about

The only person I have ever seen in hospital for spider bites was bitten by several redbacks (pretty similar to black widows)

I have never heard of anyone hospitalised by a huntsman spider

This ~~antenna~~ leg configuration is quite useless

[–] kemsat@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

The camera to the side is also flabbergasted

[–] Fuzzy_Red_Panda@lemm.ee 7 points 4 months ago

Does anyone else see the creepy upside down smiley face in the corner?

Middle of the night, semidarkness, walking to the loo. Looking up...

My understanding is that the biggest threat is when one of those sneaking into your car and start crawling on people while driving. I think we can both agree, people make for terrible drivers when achiant spider is crawling on them
