He's definitely a British fella. Sincerely, a British.

I wouldn't know where to begin. Simple and reliable is what I'm after unless you are able to expand on that.

 

As above I was previously paying a lot for Sky Sports but I'm interested in what else might be available. I think I need to use a VPN to see anything else from the UK, so anyone with experience with that I would be interested to hear from.

I don't understand how that is possible in any sensible prize money system. Does this include Ferrari getting some annual payment for being the oldest team?

That's the site and I think probably the post. Thanks so much I couldn't get anything in search.

That's the one! ❤️

I was wrong, I was using Sync previously. I'll update the post.

 

I had a saved post where someone on the fediverse made a website to end all job websites because job hunting was so unreasonably difficult. Now I need it, I can't find it and I'm hoping someone remembers this and knows what I'm on about.

I think it's because I saved the post in ~~voyager~~ Sync, then the dev abandoned it and I switched to using summit.

My understanding of the website was that it crawled company websites for vacancies and produced a clean way to browse and apply directly, skipping all the spam, recruiters and paid/account creation of the typical job sites.

Zoos make me extremely sad. I understand the human zoo is another level of fucked up, but I do wonder if we will ever progress to the point where animals in tiny enclosures for our amusement is also some historical blemish on our species.

Microsoft pissed me off so much last week I finally listened to the fedi hive mind and installed mint. Feels good man.

I have a chicken fact here! They can repair their hearing if it's damaged.

Got it. Nice puzzle.

First I figured out what was meant by the number 7 isn't a typo, by jumping to the wrong solution. Next I figured out the next idea was and it worked. No spoilers ༼⁠ᕗ⁠ຈ⁠ل͜⁠ຈ⁠༽⁠ᕗ

I've officially been cookie profiled as an internet user who is interested in owls.

Two stowaway owls have been living the good life in Spain after hitchhiking on Allure of the Seas' transatlantic cruise

During the 12-night voyage, a pair of burrowing owls felt right at home in the ship’s Central Park neighborhood after boarding the ship in Miami, Florida.

 

Picture from RSPB page on these great creatures.

Owl of the year has this squishy bird against the favourite, I was hoping to stir up some support.

 

I'm wondering if there is a recommendation for a small camera to take hiking, or just for general convenience. I like to turn my phone off when I'm out so I can properly disconnect, plus I'm winding down my phone dependency in general.

Something to point and shoot would be nice, but I'm potentially interested in learning a bit about using some actual camera techniques.

 

I don't have an id, I just thought they were cool.

 

I've got some determined leghorn pullets that I'm hoping to keep free range, but they are really getting good at flying now. I'm going to run an electric wire over the top of my fence so that they can't perch up there and plot their escape. Does anyone have experience with electric fencing and chickens?

I'm worried if I buy a normal kit it will be juiced up for horses and the like and I'll end up harming the hens. If there are recommendations for energizers that would be great too.

 

I was thinking today how cool it would be to live in a community that restricted technology to things no later than 2010.

I'm not sure exactly why but I can't think of anything after then that properly enriches my life.

If you could pick a date and create a real community around it, when would you choose?

 

I get why people don't like it, but when I scroll lemmy and see a post which looks like it has a decent level of engagements I'm finding an endless stream of replies that are always the same.

"Is this ai?" "Looks like it might be ai" "Ai slop" "This is ai, look at the [feature]"

Communities should set a rule to allow ai or not. Allowing ai but it must be declared could be a decent approach.

If there isn't a rule in the community that prohibits ai, I really wish people would cool it.

 

I've hatched 6 eggs and got 2 roosters. I was thinking about keeping one if I can manage the noise and agree with my neighbours.

If I do go ahead, how do I deal with the inbreeding thing? I assume he is probably going to try mate with his sisters... Obviously I wouldn't hatch any of those eggs, but is it normal to just allow that kind of weirdness in the flock?

 

I had a small flock of 3 hens who all got along once the pecking order was figured out.

One day, a lower hen became broody and I allowed her to hatch a clutch of eggs. This broodyness made her a bit defensive and caused some issues with the top hen.

Once the eggs hatched I separated her and her chicks to a nursery space away from the other hens until I felt they were old enough to free range, ~4 weeks. I didn't move her while nesting because I was afraid of breaking her broodyness.

Gradually she became less and less protective and has now returned to laying eggs. The chicks are independent approaching 8 weeks, although still attached to the mother hen. They are still roosting/nesting separately to the other hens in the nursery coop.

When the bullying happens now, she submits immediately to the lead hen and has no protective urges for the chicks.

The issue is that the top hen isn't letting up and I'm concerned about what happens when the chicks become too big to fit in the nursery coop and everyone needs to roost together.

I've seen some recommendations to separate the one being bullied for awhile, others to separate the bully and others to let things play out. One thing I was potentially going to wait out was for the rooster chick(s) to grow up enough to police the hen fighting.

Any other suggestions here?
