3-D modeling
Scientists at Imperial College London created a detailed 3D computer model of the arachnid from fossils.[1][2]
gollark: It's not, though, because you lose sæfety because of just dealing with numbers.
gollark: Also, Python's time libraries are utterly terrible.
gollark: That's Rust, not Python, and WAY more typesafe.
gollark: You can use them effectively against dragons.
gollark: Andrew is an utter `let ts = Utc::now().timestamp_millis();`.
