It’s actually quite rare for cats to kill birds, it’s a skill very few cats have. None of our cats has ever brought back a dead bird, while they have gone on an absolute killing spree among the local mouse population.

The birds around our house (mainly jackdaws, which are wicked smart) like to taunt the cats though.

This you?

Don’t treat it like an action game, treat it like a rhythm game.

Data communication speeds have always been in bits/second. No marketing teams involved, it’s just the most logical way.

It’s called the ‘inner platform effect’. They are basically replicating parts of the underlying platform (the OS in this case) inside their own application, until the application turns into a platform itself, one crappier than the one below it. You see this happening with web browsers and ‘web apps’.

Then maybe switch to a better OS / Window manager?

Much, much less. The city I live in wants to promote biodiversity and has adapted their mowing schedule for this. Large parts of public greenery are only mowed once or twice per year. Other parts 6 times a year. Some parts are mowed 20 times a year, e.g. fields for kids to play on, or where it would be a safety issue (e.g. high growth blocking view around a corner), but that’s just a small portion.

Also in some parts they only partially mow, to create spaces where there are different heights of greenery. They also sowed a lot of mixed flowers, which looks really nice.

The lack of braces in python code makes it quite difficult to read for someone who’s used to languages that use braces.

I’m sure it would trickle down at some point, right?

Plus get a few billion in charity from the government.

I just don’t get why people choose to be poor. It seems like a difficult way to live. Why don’t these people just get some more money?

Yep.

You’re welcome.

In the same vein, stop drawing dead butterflies

Taste like crab, talk like people.

Same on iOS

Bumble’s new verification feature lets users submit a picture of a government-issued ID to authenticate their identity

ID verification using a picture taken of the ID is practically worthless. It is trivial to fake.

Canada should just shut down energy delivery to the US.

What would you say determines whether a kernel is a Unix kernel?

Not what, who. And the answer is The Open Group,

Gotta love people who don’t want to take a vaccine that was designed by the absolute top experts in the field and extensively tested, but have no problem popping pills some grifter on the interweb sold them.

Is this also not a good reason to not set up auto pay in the case of data breaches?

No.

Sure it may not be connected to your lemmy account, but does no other personal info about you link to that data?

That personal data is already in their system whether or not I use autopay. I’m pretty sure my mortgage provider has my name and address on file. So does the energy company, my internet provider, etc.

Also, not doing automatic payments doesn’t even prevent them from having my bank account number. If I manually transfer the money they can see the source account number.
