They build their homes in the pond out of reach of predators like wolves or bears. They also dig escape routes from their den under the water. They’re herbivores so it’s not for fish, btw.

The hole for the tool (I actually don’t know the proper name) is large enough for ants to get through.

I’ve got 3 of those at home (actually got one as a gift last week) but we don’t use it because the open honey jar attracts ants. So we use spoons. I do like it though.

I bought my wife noise cancelling ear plugs for sleeping because I (in her words) snore like a pig. She has several recordings to back that up. So I bought her these noise cancelling earplugs (Soundcore A20 in case anyone is interested) in the hopes it will allow her to sleep. I will eventually get surgery done for it, because I also have apnea. She hasn’t put them to the test yet because it’s not always that she can’t sleep, but I hope they will serve her well.

Yes, not the best source, but this was reported in many outlets including thegaurdian, nytimes and bbc.

My brother was studying to become a Jesuit and there was this running joke amongst the Jesuits about praying where they would go “Why? God doesn’t exist.” This may sound hypocritical and it kind of is, but they consider the religion more a moral framework rather than something to rigorously believe in. That’s also why Pope Francis resonated with many non-believers because, at least the modern Jesuits, apply the moral lessons of the New Testament with a healthy dose of rationality (they are considered the intellectual branch of the church for a reason).

Very few, if any, Jesuit these days believe in the existence of a god, but they find value in the moral framework and how they can apply that to make this world a better place. It’s the only religious order I can stomach to have conversations with.

I’m not super deep into it, but I honestly hardly noticed. Only when I ended up at reddit for some obscure tech issue did I notice it and 10 minutes later it worked again. The thread turned out to be useless anyway.

This guy made a sad face. You have to provide a picture now. We can’t sleep unless you do!

Rush is actually a pretty good band. I remember listening to them a lot when I was 17-18. Now I have to listen to them again…

Last I checked it was a fast food chain.

The copilot in outlook feature is super handy for summarizing mails from one colleague who writes half a novel each time. That’s about the only handy use I have found for it, for the rest it’s annoying.

The dead one or the new one?

And the river, but don’t ask them to play stud.

Nissan vanette and ford focus. Don’t miss either of those and have an automatic now. I still drive a friend’s van from time to time which has a clutch, whoch is good so I don’t forget how to drive it. Although it still feels completely natural since I drove manual for 2 decades.

My honda civic has this perfectly balanced (this is a stock photo):

Beautiful, but is there really a difference in pronunciation of hose and dose? I always pronounce them similarly…

Megacancer balls

Sounds about right for average US bagel size.

This is just one day. Most of these stocks are still up for the week.

There was a bug in older lemmy versions where a comment you made on another instance would be posted to a thread with the same number on your home instance, if there was such a thread. This has long been fixed though, but there probably are some outdated instances around still.

Edit: since the user is from piefed.blahaj.zone and this thread is lemmy blahaj.zone I would guess it is a similar, if not the same bug
