  • Me too, grandmas shirt graphic and the bookshelf look off

  • I would since I thought this was some kind of food until reading your comment (though it would be a bit overpriced for what looks like terrible cookies)

  • Teef

    Jump
  • Did you watch Only Murders in the Building yesterday? 😇

  • The plastic straws also contain PFAS anyway so paper still may be marginally better, but it’s definitely money and time that could have been better spent on a different environmental initiative. I’m happy to see plastic bags go, though. Can’t win em all

  • Depends which direction you’re coming from though

  • That’s the point of the community, to reduce musk spam elsewhere by concentrating it in one targeted place

  • I think to really troll, you should try playing it a bit more stupid and oblivious, so people really buy it yknow. This feels a bit too on the nose, I believe you can do better

  • I always attributed more to soil and sun, because I grow great tomatoes easily in my garden every year. This year I did have to fertilize a few times, and they are only ripening now. I’m on the Canadian Prairies so not exactly subtropical. And I’m not that good a gardener either, cucumbers are often a struggle for me and my beets always get demolished by birds. And it’s been a good 4 years of various weather here and still, nice tomatoes. I wonder if there are some more locally adapted strains you could try?

  • Check out exotic toad bulldogs for a step into the very wrong direction

  • The old one was revived, the admins of lemmy world don’t agree with parking community names

  • No its more for secretly spying on a partner you suspect of cheating or child’s phone activity. I think you need to get ahold of the device in question and have it unlocked to install this. Still very unethical obviously

  • Chickens originated from the red jungle fowl which is a much leaner and flighted bird (as are certain breeds of chicken) We’ve made modern chickens into something that can’t survive in the wild, much like we turned wolves into pugs!

  • If you reinforce the behaviour with attention she will continue it, that’s how it works. Ignore and she will stop, but do give her some acceptable method to get normal attention (not just asking you to prep her dinner) and encourage that. You can pick her up off the desk and set her on the ground nicely if she is physically in the way.

  • That works if the instance openly expresses a general policy on defederating , and then adheres to their own policy. Based on the whole pre-emptive threads defederation that many other instances took part in, but lemmy.world did not, it seemed like they were aiming to be a very open instance - their stated reason for not cutting ties with threads was to have a wait and see approach and actually give them a chance before assuming it will be a problem (and it’s not like meta has a stellar track record either). Now with hexbear they are taking an immediate defederation, no chances approach. It would be nice to get some clarity on the general criteria for pre-emptive and reactive defederation in order to make those home instance decisions.

  • I think the issue has been, while the result is something illegal (and that’s why it’s rightfully being cracked down on), the path to get there is not strictly outlawed. They are paying a subscription service for an amount of general visits, but because the purpose of the visit isn’t outlined prior to the patient requesting them, the visits could be non-essential or elective care - things that doctors are not obligated to provide access to equally or freely. And then they say they will also offer some level of necessary care to non subscribers. But obviously in practice some of those preferred customers will book non essential appointments and deprive the non-payers of spots to even make requests for necessary care.

    At least that is how I understood it. It is wrong and Health Canada is responding properly it just wasn’t super direct path to wrongness that makes it easy to point directly to a line in the Health Act - and that’s why these greedy centres tried to get away with this bs in the first place

  • They’re basically exploiting a grey area that isn’t specifically outlined as being illegal, but ultimately creates an environment where illegally preferential care could occur. But they say ah but we still provide access one day a week to the general public for necessary care, therefore we are all g - Health Canada is now challenging this approach fortunately.
