Reproduction

H. stejnegeri is an oviparous, triploid, parthenogenetic species.[3]

gollark: There's also fairly consistent mobile network coverage on a bunch of networks, but it is *also* somewhat slow and has data caps.

gollark: Or Openreach or something? In any case, prices are okay and you can choose from a bunch of providers, but they all use the same bad infrastructure.

gollark: Most rural areas, like where I am, only have VDSL lines from BT.

gollark: > do people have these problems in other countries?In the UK, we have *different* problems.

gollark: Meh, I turn that off anyway because it seems to be more "Microsoft-approved boot" than *secure* boot. Unless you bother to set your own keys, I guess.
