For all we know Donald Trump Jr. secretly dropped it there to stir nonsense up. It’s as preposterous as thinking Hunter Biden accidentally forgot it there.
How are there no fingerprints on the bag? Was it a bag? No touch DNA at all? Not video? No visitor logs? Seems strange there is zero evidence.
Large Language Models are nothing but very advanced regurgitation machines. That’s the AI these articles are hand wringing about - not a real Artificial Intelligence.
These articles remind me of the bitcoin articles we used to see.
The contradiction between plentiful global food supplies and widespread malnutrition and hunger arises primarily from food being considered a commodity.
When it’s profits at all costs, this is what you get - unchecked capitalism and mass inequality.
Is it just me or does the Lemmy community actively ignoring the existence of kbin? I see a lot of posts explicitly mentioning Lemmy users but only posts from kbinners mention both platforms.
Not having a kbin account, kbin magazines look exactly the same as lemmy communities. It’s only when you are part of a kbin server would you see the extra functionality of threads and microblogs that kbin gives you.
Have you considered going to a self serve dog wash and using their higher pressure water and dryer?
I also feel you are washing your dogs too often. You can give them dermatitis if you wash too often, they also will smell worse if you bathe too often.
I would google for your breeds how often they should be bathed. For instance, it’s recommended that a GSD be bathed every 3-4 months. Some dogs can be bathed once a month.
Desshedding active ingredients are omega 3, fatty acids and vitamin e.
shampoo
1 quart water
1 cup gentle baby shampoo or non-toxic dish soap
1/3 cup glycerin
2 tbsp. aloe vera gel
1/2 cup white or apple cider vinegar
conditioner
1/4 cup raw rolled oats ground into a powder in a blender
Sometimes when I try to let my dog outside to go to the bathroom he won’t go outside. He’ll just sit there staring at me. But If I go outside with him he will go outside and go to the bathroom with no issue. Sometimes I’ll just pick him up and set him outside when I know he needs to go but he’ll just just at the door...
My GSD wants to be by my side at all times. My rescue 15lb dog will only poop outside if I am out there but pretending to not see her. My Husky Sheppard would be fine being outside. My pit mix would visit the neighbor and beg treats and hang out with them.
I saw the flower and couldn’t resist buying it! It’s a hybrid between Paphiopedilum “Fred’s Wonder” and Paphiopedilum “Presidential Moon” which are themselves hybrids of hybrids....
Hey dog nerds / makers. I was surprised to find there isn’t a commercial option out there for detecting when a dog is doing a dump. For my pup at least an acellerometer that shows he is motionless and at an angle between standing and sitting should be a pretty good predictor of pooing behavior. I saw some blogs about a guy...
Disgraced sports doctor Larry Nassar has been stabbed multiple times during an altercation with another inmate at a federal prison in Florida. Nassar is serving decades in prison after admitting sexually assaulting athletes at Michigan State University and at Indianapolis-based USA Gymnastics, including Olympic medalists.
It’s the monsters we think ‘good’ when we hear about bad things happening to them in prison. It’s still messed up we won’t pay guards enough to keep all of the positions filled. It’s actually messed up we can’t keep the monsters safe in prison.
There are people incarcerated that are innocent, There are people behind bars that were way over charged for what they did. Prisons should be a safe place focused on rehabilitation, not a punative jungle where it’s every person for themselves.
Go on YouTube and watch a few videos on redirection training.
Also, does your dog have a favorite activity? My GSD loves balls, so if I need to redirect her I can pull out a ball and she will focus on that. My dog is trained to sit and stay, so I will take out the ball, make sure she sees it, then I have her sit down or lay down. Only after she is in a down will I give her the ball.
Dogs don’t need to play with other dogs, they really want to be with their people. They can be very enriched by playing with you and interacting with you in a positive manner. So if you take your BC to the dog park, plan to do activities with them that they love. They will.want to do that activity and will eventually ignore the other dogs.
They’re going to open a lot of the shells and use the armour piercing shapped bomblets as drone munitions.
US cluster bombs have 88 bomblets inside each shell. They also have a 1% to 3% dud rate on the bomblets, so that’s 2 to 3 duds per shell. Duds that turn into landmines. Use 10 shells on an area and you’ve suddenly laid 30 mines in that area. Mines that you have no idea where they’re placed.
So Ukrain can’t use the cluster bombs on any area they intend to occupy or traverse. They can’t use them on trench lines, they can’t use them on fields they would need to drive over.
I believe they will be used, but a lot of them will used for drone ammunition.

U.S. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a staunch ally of former President Donald Trump, has been voted out of the hardline House Freedom Caucus group after clashing with a fellow lawmaker, a caucus member said.
Calling Boebart a bitch wasn’t the reason at all, it was the excuse to shun her for being disloyal. She backed McCarthy as speaker and she backed the debt limit bill.
You can’t go against the group when you’re in a conservative group.
He was entertaining for the times in which he was popular. Then in 2007 he made a major blunder after describing the Rutgers women’s college basketball team as “nappy headed hos.” He didn’t retire until 2018, but his career was never the same again.
