Mine hated magpies. First time we took him to my mothers house I heard some miaus smd found him on a rock in the middle of a little brook next to the house being mobbed by three magpies. And I had to rescue him. A little while later I saw the setup. One magpie was limping along being tracked by the cat. The second the cat jumped in the rock the other two immediately started mobbing him and the “wounded” would join in.

After that magpies were an arch enemy. A few years later I sat on my own porch, and this magpie was hopping around for probably 20-30 minutes when suddenly my fur missile came out if a bush next to the porch. He had bided his time and actually got both his paws all around the magpie who started pecking his head. Think he was as surprised as the magpie as he actually let it go. (To my relief as I think he would have lost an eye)

I saw that the magpies had learned and was more wary when they spotted him.

Its the same thing that happens with fridges and freezers. But they have become better at equaling the pressue.

Change in temperature (T) means a change in volume and/or pressure

Fuck. For a second there I thought it was an ad in Lemmy, and was enraged that this shit was pushed. Don’t scare me like that

Well. I think they can dox someone editing out of Pajala in Sweden, Drenas in Kosovo, Bifuka in Japan or Bella Cola in Canada and it will mean fuck all. Perhaps Cletus in Bumfuck North Carolina will seethe but i will mean nothing

So how do these idiots plan to solve the fact that many editors are not in fact based in the US. Just move edition these articles to any other country?

Unmodified unpatched original Morrowind had this strange bug where a goblin (can’t remember where, but he was in a castle) would sell you 5000 gold for 5000 gold. He would reset every day so you could continue this indefinitely. Then if you killed him you could then loot him for the accumulated gold you had sold him. (Let say you had done this 365 days it would net you 1 825 000 gold)

In the end I only saw devils marching in with pitchforks

The word gard still also means fence in Norwegian. Still in use i the words “Skigard” (using the original meaning of the word ski as wood split lengthwise) and “steingard”.

Also in the word “manngard” as a line of people moving forward when searching for something or someone.

It also means the word gård.

It’s Miklagard (old Norse name for the city)

"Gard"means wall/fence and is incidentally where you get gorod in Russian/Slavic languages I think.

The more I learn, the better I understand Monthy Pythons song about how sweet it is to be an idot

I am semi-literate in “computers”. That means I can build my own PC, do no coding, but manage to troubleshoot most things by sheer stubborness, search and the odd question on a “forum” In other words not afraid of tech.

I can’t be bothered to sift through endless overengineered BS for a PC to do the few things I need it to do these days. Web browser, Steam and streaming, while not scraping every ounce of personal data and sending it to various entities for nefarious purposes. I have Mint, it works out of the box and I don’t have to tinker with it, but enough customizability if I want to.

Dont understand why you get downvoted, as I assume you mean that the generals were not strategical and tactical terrible. Think most historians will agree that Hitlers direct involvement in the war was a growing issue in conducting the war. Also Hitler stayed in power by making sure that the levels below him were at each others throats and not able to challenge him directly. Nazi Germany was not technically on a war economy until Speer took over, and the amount of corruption was immens.

Protonmail

Thats straight out of the communist playbook with political commissars. Think Russia just reinstated that?

This is an old meme, from before even they had branded internet cultural phenomena as memes. “a hero” means suicide if I remember correctly, but I can’t remember the origin/context that spawned it

Norwegian here. I quit reddit and joined Lemmy after the API debacle. Installed mint because of W11. (A big factor was how Steam and proton enables me to play games)

Can’t say either Lemmy or Linux has gotten any media attention in the big news sources as far as I can see.

I am the only one in my circle of friends that quit Reddit (most follow the various 40k reddits, and they have no replacement in federated options)

Oh yeah. I am om team lead. The problem with Mercury is the vapor that ridiculously easy methylates when heated, and then you have a nerve toxin that quite easily crosses the blood-brain barrier.

Kids with little experience perhaps. And morons.

Same with metallic mercury. But once it evaporates…
