Description

Lupinus antoninus grows in mountain forests often amongst firs. This is a hairy, erect perennial herb growing 20–50 centimetres (7.9–19.7 in) tall. Each palmate leaf is made up of 6 or 7 leaflets each 1.5–2.5 centimetres (0.59–0.98 in) long. The herbage is coated in gray or silvery hairs. The inflorescence is up to 20 centimetres (7.9 in) long, bearing many flowers each just over a centimeter long. The flower is whitish with a light brownish wash on its banner. The fruit is a silky-haired legume pod up to 3.5 centimetres (1.4 in) long containing a few mottled brown seeds.

gollark: That seems like an issue of the actual processing it's doing (though I don't think there's a consensus on what exactly hypnosis is and how it works), instead of the hardware.
gollark: I'm not sure I would trust my brain to computers in any case, given the horrible security record of... most complex computer systems... which will likely only get worse as complexity increases. Though I suppose my foolish organic brain has its own (probably not remotely exploitable, at least?) security flaws.
gollark: SSDs are pretty dense. They're just expensive.
