Yeah I looked into migrating to earth but overall it didn't seem like a great idea. Most of the world is rife with hatred of aliens and has a very much higher percentage of trafficking aliens than native peoples. They seem to be highly focused on competing against each other rather than helping their societys grow together. When was there last war, today.. that number hasn't changed in thousands of cycles. An atmospheric scan shows catestorfic changes making it inhabitable for many life forms on the planet and yet still while thousands of species have died off around them, the primary "intelligent" species ignores it while lying to their peers trying to swindle themselves into a better standing so they can think they are better than others while dooming near everything. Maybe I'll go in after the next thaw in about 65,000 cycles.

I agree, I would never shoot to hurt an animal, a gun is a weapon of death, and should always be treated as such. 1.8 years I have had the chickens here, never wanted a rooster, and he proved to be my best friend. At 11:30Pm he had a chick who tore itself out of a shell in 39 minutes. Average is 24-36 hours apparently. I'm taking closed shell to walking eyes open. Shouldn't happen. But she has. She looks tired AF here

Yeah, they had to change things, the person was hit by a human driver and flung in the self driving cars path and the human driver drove off. The self driving car didn't know what to do and dragged the body to the side of the road basically. None of these incidents took place by a Waymo vehicle though. Waymo has had to shoulder the shit that Tesla and other companies have put out. GM as you said making that "mistake".

"For example, the stated goal of both the Helms-Burton Act and the Torricelli law is to strangle the Cuban economy by cutting off its ability to carry out normal financial relations around the world."

Torricelli law, that's a principle of fluid dynamics, guess they shared a name, they must have meant the Torricelli-Graham Bill.

Copy party works pretty well, I've liked it. That said I don't have mine open to everyone, it requires a password for view/read/edit rights or whatnot, which you can easily divy out using a config file. (Not the most secure, but that's because I haven't put in any protections myself)

18-29, where do they get this biased claim from? I find it hard to believe people 7 years or so younger than me are trusting false data more than the large swaths of 65+ gobbling up misinformation about immigrants, drugs, etc. "Younger users are more active, more influential in their peer groups, and frankly, often less skeptical about what they’re seeing online."

Yeah, I was probably way to soft spotted about the dogs, spouse kept pointing out it was Halloween last night so small kids out wandering would have been predictable. As for where I live let's just say that stupid country singer who wrote a song recently about "try that in a small town" or whatever... Didn't sing it in his town, he came to our town to sing it in front of the court house here, there were a few people I know who weren't so happy about that.

Yeah, the spouse kept pointing out that it was Halloween, so the odds of small kids encountering them was definitely non-zero. It's a new day though, so it's time for me to get to making a better solution.

That said, sorry for the separate message. If your standing there with a small arm (22lr pistol) do you just let the dog leave. For me it was an easy answer that I did. Maybe a lot would not, but I just can't understand/wouldn't shoot a trapped dog who was trying to find it's meal. I figure she has pups to feed somewhere near enough. She's living in pups America. Lol. Not a good place

Yeah, we would be talking around 7 meters or 21 feet max shot. It's a guarantee hit. I don't want to fire a 9mm, 22LR, .223, at them. Salt gun I don't know if they would feel from there, but yeah it's very much "on the line" of how to scare them away forever and not hurt them

I have an old pink pellet gun I bought for my spouse years ago that I took with me. I don't want to shoot them... But scare I'm fine with

(Animal control was closed, I ended up with non-emergency line)

But they want report as dangerous, or ignore... And I told them I don't want the dogs killed for this( and to never tell my spouse that lol)

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (2 children)

They look very well kept, but maybe it's just their short coat that makes it seem so. I talked to an officer because she demanded I called the non-emergency line. (I fired a shot at the ground 15m from where the pen is to make sure they were scared, I couldn't see them well in the dark, so I aimed where they couldn't be) 22lr round out of a pistol, not my 9mm or a rifle, something I found most reasonable... still scary as shit..) He was saying re-inforce either way and if you want me to file a report I will type of deal. Call me a coward but I don't want someone's dogs getting killed because they didn't know where they were the second time. Especially if they didn't know they got out originally. But yes, they took a life... Which makes it so much harder. That said, when I eat chicken for dinner tomorrow, is that dog any worse because "it's sustainability" or what not?

 

Basic: 20ft x 10ft chicken coop being attacked by loose blue pit bulls. (Weight 60,80 lbs malle and female). I'm trying to address the problem by finding the owners and what not but I first saw them 3 weeks ago. Tried to break in and I told them to stop, they listened and left. They came back today between 2-4pm and broke in and the one rooster that was there (missexed at birth) fought them off, died doing so. It is a very low gauge wire surround the pen, chickens aren't to strong. After the situation I reinforced the entrance where they broke in with higher(lower) gauge wire to about 2.5 ft it's what I had available. They came back at 11pm and broke in above it. I had to let one of the dogs out of the door so they could leave. I don't wish to shoot the dogs, and am dealing with it on other fronts... I was hoping maybe someone had cheap ideas I could use to reinforce the pen in case they come back before the issue is sorted. As a gun owner, I never want guns to be the answer

2 60-80lb dogs (lemmy.world)
 

So 3 weeks ago I had 2 blue (pitbulls?) come by one male one female, jumping at my 20x10ft cage trying to get in. Luckily I walked out there, they friendly to people, I told them to cut it out and go away, and they left. This afternoon between 2-4pm they came back and broke through the wire to get to the chickens, the one missexed rooster fought them to his death, and all the hens survived. I wrapped the bottom 2.5 feet of entry with stronger metal wiring to reinforce it. They came back at 11pm. (They leaped over after tearing through the weaker part up top). I had to let one out) First off hats off to a rooster that fights off 140lbs of dogs. (Picture below for sorrow). Second, I will re-inforce further, but what would you/should I do. My spouse wants me to shoot them, and I am very much a dog lover and believe the female dog was recently pregnant so I think they are out trying to provide.... I'm trying to avoid shooting them at any cost. It's Tennessee. She grew up here. Her mindset is it's killing our livestock, kill it. I'm very much re-inforce, and figure out if we can find who owns them and make sure they know what's going on... What would you do?

Rest in peace knight of the chickens

 

Local news I suppose, but a family friend said it woke them up this morning.

 

Would prefer it to not be "hair" 'makeup" girlish oriented, but rather something challenging for her mind. I am her Uncle, and would like something maybe aimed at DIY outside of Lego if you know what I mean. Budget is small, maybe 39.99? Can move either way if needed

Advice, much needed as a 36 y/o male with no kids

 

The number of recharge cycles still sounds low, but there is promise in ensuring the lithium is being re-used.

 
 

I haven't used bazzite before but was looking into handhelds for my spouse and was curious if anyone has installed bazzite on a GPD Win 4, I heard some kinks hadn't been worked out with SteamOS on that hardware so I was curious about people's experiences. Or rather is that hardware more than needed? Would she be better off with a unit that comes with SteamOS for cheaper as it runs everything you have thrown at it?

 

The article left me with more questions than answers but at least it is an attempt.

For one, is a single axel propelling the entire rig at that point?

 

So I remembered a bookmark I used to have and went to look in Chrome and it was there. Went to export the bookmarks and import them into my current browser. Apparently unless you are on a desktop there is no export option for Chrome in Android now? I know it exists on Chromium based browsers because it exists in Cromite.

Not sure this counts as enshittification, but it definitely seems like an effort to make users not move away from using their product.

 

I get asked to check the box to prove I'm human multiple times a day, from opening an article on here, to going to cloudflare.com to see if they had advice on not getting hit with it all the time.

If I have a VPN active and/or I am using a secure browser I always tend to get it. Currently using PIA and Cromite. Is there anything short of just giving up privacy that can be used to verify and maybe hold like a token lease so I can maybe only do it once a day or once per VPN connection?

 

Bold claims, but that energy density would be amazing.
