It seems kind of strange that “prey animals” would be what they are called in an official document. An analogous situation is how we call it “enslaved persons” now instead of “slaves” because that describes what is/was being done to them rather than essentializing them as a “natural” class which is taken for granted.

Also, one year minimum seems rather short for what is essentially a murder-like charge unless their lives are very short like cats in real life.

Hexbear is about to federate with us in about a week if you wanted to wait for that.

Is it actually making you happy to play it? Because that’s what made me quit the gacha game I was in for 5 years.

The other big news is they’re starting to use yuan to trade instead of USD.

I watched it and it’s intriguing. The characters have similar roles to the real show and speak in similar ways. The problem is that the “writer” has no point of view and therefore the satire was completely missing.

Wish I could, my phone manufacturer has the bootloader locked down and I will be using this one until it stops getting security updates. I’ll probably switch to Zenfone 8/9 or a mid budget moto eventually as those tend to be unlockable.

Way overdue feature. I agree, perfect for locating bundle pieces as those quickly fall off the recent list.

This is almost beyond belief… They spent so much time pulling teeth on the Ukraine question that they ran out of time for negotiating a trade deal. In a meeting of nations that happens only once or twice per decade.

It’s about 10% more efficient than jpeg compression.

Yes, I meant individual posters making the adjustment.

I’m more certain about the first search part.

Choosing a more compressed file format like jpeg/webp is probably also helpful. Converting that png online or in gimp can reduce the file size by up to 75%.

It took me a distressing amount of time to locate a swimwear brand that even makes a two to four inch inseam swim trunk. It’s Sauvage Swimwear, btw. Pricy, but if you’re like me and buy one pair every decade it’s worth it.

People look down on dress sneakers (dress shoes that have comfortable soles) but as long as they are fully brown or black, 90% of people would never notice them.

The first time anybody on your instance searches for a separate lemmy community, your Lemmy instance reaches out for the other community and learns that it exists. After that point it shows up in searches and after one person subscribes it appears in your instance’s All feed.

Yeah, it’s best to confirm that someone somewhere has rooted a phone before you buy it for that purpose. Motorola typically allows it but there may be exceptions.

Bring back cloaks.

It’s really hard to know if any particular animal feels pain. There are also hundreds of kinds of jellyfish with a variety of levels of intelligence. Some vegans would tell you that just because the nature of their intelligence is alien to us doesn’t mean it’s less valuable. Personally I find it difficult to empathize with any creature that lacks a brain, especially plants.

Kind of unrelated but squids are often extremely intelligent, and are definitely not vegan in my book.
