We had a rescue street dog who was constantly escaping. He ended up living with another family for a few weeks because they’d never heard of id chips. When we eventually traced him and went to pick him up, he looked quite peeved. He conveyed “oh ffs not you” from his side-eye very effectively. They’d been giving him roast dinners and letting him sleep on their bed.

    Yeah, concluding that from 1 day’s worth of trading is brave. Last 5 years or so shows much more volatility but still generally upwards… I can’t be bothered to see what those general spikes align with.

    I taught my kids our family motto when they were just 6 and 4. “He who puts his nose too hard to the grindstone gets bits of shredded nose in his flour.”

    It’s served us all well for many many years.

    Saw some students try to do that with a relatively small car badly parked on campus. They decided they could probably lift it with one on each corner. Unfortunately they each grabbed a wheel arch and came away with handfuls of corroded bodywork. The rest of the car stayed where it was and they ran.

    Back in the 1990s, a colleague and I manage to get the “Performance Enterprise Network Information System” project endorsed and launched across a team of several hundred people. Someone remarked it was a bit of a mouthful. We were very proud.

    I don’t know tbh, but I’ve seen many lemmy posts with multiple images… maybe it depends on your client, or were you using the web interface?

    But even a Dropbox or google drive wouldn’t have that level of scamware popping up all over the place.

    That gallery site was an interesting choice for a post on privacy… My phone has an extra mic installed after trying to navigate it.

    I turned 54 this year and went to Legoland in Billund, 50 years to the month since I was last there. Found the exact same street model that my dad took cine film of.
