Thanks for reminding me I’ve got a daki on the way. Time to check the mail every hour.

There is a good chance…
Probabilistically, the early bird theory is unlikely. If development of life were to follow a normal distribution, it’d be highly improbable that we’d be in the tails as opposed to the main body.
Exhibit 5: Falling Down
I’ll just send a picture:

This was before I added the netting. I use tomato clips to hold up the plants:

Then the netting just goes all the way around the outside hanging down from the top, and secured at the bottom with ground clips.
The netting isn’t big enough for squirrels to get through. It’s draped down from the trellising, and pinned down to the ground. There’s no way for the squirrels to get in unless they climb up and over, and they don’t seem to be able to figure that out.
Not sure what to do about the horn worms though.
I have a raised bed and just hang a loose net around the whole thing so the squirrels can’t get in. Otherwise those little buggers will take one bite out of each tomato and leave the rest for me to clean up.

4·7 months agoIs it really that bad? I don’t really play metroidvanias, but thought I’d give it a try and have really being enjoying it. You have to go in with the expectation that a lot of fights might take 5-10 tries to learn all the mechanics and build muscle memory. It’s a hard game, but also very rewarding when you progress precisely because it doesn’t spoon-feed you victories.
Also, IIRC, they’ve already released a few patches to tone down the difficulty in some of the tougher spots.

Technology@lemmy.world•Meet the AI vegans. They are refusing to use artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasonsEnglish
2·9 months agoIt’s honestly not even the worst way I’ve even seen it used.
I used to watch some League of Legends (I know, I know) streams from time to time, and there’s a meta where your mid laner, who is supposed to be a strong carry, gives up all their farm to the roaming jungler roll so they become the super-carry.
In any case this somehow got termed to be the “vegan mid” strategy. Ugh. Veganism is when you starve, apparently.

Games@lemmy.world•GOG’s Freedom To Buy Campaign Gives Away Controversial Games For Free To Protest CensorshipEnglish
14·9 months agoJust getting around to trying it now. Will update with further info.
Very first impressions:
Yep, its sexo pokemon snap! If you’re into furry or pokephilia, and enjoy photography, this’ll probably be a fun time. It seems like it is more anthro focused though, not that I’d be a good judge of any of this or anything. >_>;
Right off the bat, the walking animation is very janky, but otherwise it seems surprisingly polished. The tutorial is a bit info dumpy, but it’s not that overwhelming.
Just starting actual gameplay now.
Edit 1: Managed to soft lock myself on the very first quest. Got stuck in a tent flap. Lol. Fixed with a reload.
Edit 2: Now I can’t find this expedition log for the 2nd part of the first quest. This does not bode well. I swear I should work in QA, as I can’t find anyone who’s had this problem.
I’m giving up for tonight. It kinda feels like nobody play tested this.

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Does a vpn really matter when torenting? Do people care?English
16·10 months agoI’m in a country where there’s no legal precedent against torrenting, so it’s somewhat safe, but it’s still better to use one anyways. You never know when the laws might change, and it’s best if there’s no record of your IP/timestamp torrenting.
Either way, there’s a risk-reward tradeoff of not using one, but the risk is much higher in the US, and if you’re made an example of, it could be life ruining. You’ll have to decide for yourself if it’s worth paying to mitigate the risk.
I personally prefer the humped-back interpretation from the mid-90s:
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/was-spinosaurus-a-bison-backed-dinosaur-12849430/
I can’t quite tell if it was accidentally omitted, or if it was intended as part of one of the listed theories, or it was left out because it’s just a silly meme.
And it’s a damn shame too, because it’s a very cool looking symbol. Stupid Nazis ruin everything. >:(

Ok, you’re going to have to share with the class.
