It’s why you can go to the store and not worry about being murdered even though there’s nothing preventing that from happening.

Ooooh, black water closets. Bouncy is my forte and I just assumed. How embarassing.

Well most water closets are tiled and can’t be.jumped on at all.

This definitely isn’t just a female thing. We were all exchanging doctor stories the other night and everyone had ones like this. Weirdly they were all in the past few years and that being gaslit or dismissed by a doctor just feels normal now.

That’s…not how the sterile tactic works. Anywhere in the world.
For starters, you think they’re just going to release everything in winter because last fall there were a couple of cases in proximity of the border? It’s insect ecology. Always wait for late-spring to summer before anything. Most generational breeding starts peak-summer period.
When we do this for mosquitos in SE Asia, African Lakes, South America, etc. you prepare, then go it at the right time.
“We had a case in Texas now! Unleash the horde!”
Aaaand you’re fucked.
Again, the main concern is about how infestation breached through north of South America and Central America to get to North America. There were proxy cases to the US border over the last six months which obviously meant it’d be in the US come warmer months—and that’s been factored for—but why did it get that far up the continent over the last two years?
These are things way outside of Trump’s wheelhouse and apparently Lemmy users that only come in here for US politics articles. Hell. I can tell most of you didn’t even read the article, let alone look into it.

Literally has nothing to do with Trump or Trump voters.
While the USDA has long been prepared and will just repeat their actions of last time—which the article implies they’ve already prepared for—it’s more a concern of what happened to Central/South America, or the fly’s geneology or reproductive behaviours that has caused the safe zone to slowly get overrun these past few years.
If you really want to point this to Trump, I guess you’ll need to find some sort of link to something the US did that somehow caused Panama and then Mexico to get re-invaded, about 6-12 months before he was in office.

Ah. End-game was many things. But my fav parts was PvP and huge raids. Fun social nights of really challenging stuff with a group of friends you’ll never meet irl 😍
- Comment on Anon plays World of Warcraft 2 weeks ago:
That game was all about the end-game. Questing up to max level was like the intro and could be done very fast with a good guide. The only good thing about leveling was getting used to new skills at a slow rate, otherwise it was kind of pointless and just something you’d quickly get out of the way.

This’d work if they weren’t Millennial terms.
Kids think you’re embarassing and old if you use terms like rofl and wear ankle socks.

The Scott Manley video is great.
He slows it down and you get to see the exact moment Bezos practically nuked a launchpad, with nothing more to say but “anolomy”.
Yes, he can easily financially absorb it easily. But the damage he caused hopefully has repercussions on billionaire space exploration being regulated like any other public space agency.

- Comment on Aussies are a strange beautiful people with ways that are alien to me... 4 weeks ago:
Funny you say that. I’ve grown up poor, life without money didn’t stop me from living great. Just by devaluing it, it’s slowly come to me faster than others that live by it. Now I’m sort of at the point where enough is enough, it’s a hassle at a point and I can’t succeed in life if I’m not living, just bound by it.
So I kinda see it as a failure. Like something that gets in the way and holds a person back in life if they lack the capacity to think much for themselves. I’ve met very few rich people of substance or value in anything beyond their accounts. Not saying they’re worthless; just not of much consideration for value.

A budget as possible to meet the bare requirements for military use on bulk. You can consider “military grade” the baseline while most civvy items have higher quality, more feature, more comfort, etc.
