Lucky for you that you didn't grow up in our little town then. Not only were the little kids setting off fireworks, we were ARMED! I could buy shotgun shells at the local hardware store, and didn't need so much as a parents permission note. 🔫

small berry
#

How can they verify your parents signature

final karma
#

They didn't. We didn't even need a note from our parents to buy ammo

cause a note from your parents makes no sense, but being able to buy ammo while underage and not having a license seems pretty US like

Ant Party

small berry
#

" One common reason is when they lose their pheromone trail, which is a chemical signal that helps them navigate and communicate with each other. When an ant becomes separated from the main trail, it may start to follow the pheromones of its fellow ants, creating a circular pattern.

This behavior is often referred to as an “ant mill” or “death spiral,” as the ants may eventually die of exhaustion from circling endlessly. Army ants, in particular, are prone to this behavior, as they rely heavily on pheromones to navigate and forage for food."

#

"In some cases, ants may also circle around a stimulus, such as a vibrating object or a food source, due to their innate curiosity or attraction to certain smells. This behavior is often seen in ants that are not necessarily lost or disoriented, but are simply exploring their environment."

small berry
#

I knew the clearing its pheromone trail with some saliva and your finger trick so they stop going forward but I didn't know it went this far

Well, if this ant gets murdered, from what I read, it is a super sweet treat. Apparently, humans gather them and eat them like candy after filling them up

small berry
#

"This adoption is often facilitated by the presence of a specific scent, known as “Passport Pheromone”, which helps ants within a colony identify which ants are family and which are invaders." Yo WTF

queen vale

#

"In some cases, orphaned colonies or workers separated from their foraging column may be adopted by a new colony that benefits from the added labor. This can occur when a colony goes queenless, and the orphaned workers are absorbed into the new colony."

Sugar ants are awesome to coexist with. I used to let them stay around my sink and those counters. They cleaned up really well when I missed things.

I blended the garlic until minced. Scooped them into 1 tablespoon half rounds (pucks). Out them on a baking sheet and into the deep freezer to freeze.
I meant to put them in a ziploc after they froze

did you remove the fibrous thing in the middle?

I only cut the middle out of it is older garlic that has started growing.

But, I cut the hard ends off

afaik if you remove it you remove most of the strong odor and whatnot

I like how garlic smells o.o

thus less smelly breath

My older cat can't stand the smell and is deterred. My younger one loves it and will beg for it. She got ahold of garlic and green onion a couple of times. I rarely grow green onion or keep it bc of her and the garlic has to be stored far out of reach of her.

# small berry afaik it should be something neuronal cause cats are predisposed to not like the...

Scarlett doesn't like the smell of plants that will hurt her if ingested. If food contains those plants, she will turn away from that too.
Her weirdest food quirk is she won't eat any cat food that has "peas" listed in the first 5 ingredients.

Nori on the other hand seems to be attracted to the items that can kill her, but is opposed to a few items that cats typically love. If I offer Nori dairy, she will scrunch up and avoid it, she doesn't care for most fish, but, will try to eat anything oniony, gingery, garlicy, we found her in a whisky glass one day -.-"

Omg I didn't think of that.... She does purposely destroy things and present her butt to you to get whipped....

hearty sonnet
small berry

usually it's just cats being incredibly rebellious and doing things to annoy you cause you annoyed it

#

but who knows

night plume
#

She is the "any and all attention is good attention" type

#

If you aren't giving her attention when she wants it, she figures out what she can do in that room to get in trouble, does it, makes noise to show you she did it if you don't react immediately, then lays there or presents her butt to get popped for doing a bad thing.

To punish her, she now gets grounded from rooms. I need to record her hissy fits xD

My dog gets really excited when I come home, even if I'm just gone for 15 mins.
I gotta record that sometime

night plume
#

I love the coming home excitement. It's the best. I will sometimes cam that for my friends

#

Both Scarlett and Nori race from window to window waiting for me to come inside.
Nori will be at the door rolling doing her, "pet me, pet me, pet me!!!!" Routine. And Scarlett, you hear her racing down the hall all excited, then she stops and just walks in slowly to sit across from you with a, "oh? You're home?" Look xD before she walks off as if she doesn't care.

hearty sonnet

My youngest cat will get all excited if she sees me out a window coming inside

I had some gripes with the Hobbit movies (that I can't really remember bc it has been so long since I watched them), but I don't recall them being bad movies.

They were great movies for their time. Reasonably true to the books too since Peter Jackson was a huge Tolkein nerd himself

I think the only things I can think of off the top of my head are some scenes felt rushed that needed explanation for those of us who hadn't read the book, while some felt longer without reason other than pretty scenery.

IDK if it was really so much filler as movies just moving at a slower pace for dramatic effect

Kind of like the difference between Dune 1 and Dune 2. I liked 1 better because of the pacing, but I'm probably in the minority

I watched Dune.
I can't remember a single thing....

On the bright side: I can rewatch movies and enjoy them all over again.
On the downside: I can rarely ever talk to people about what I watched bc it is just gone

The thing is that pirate game wasn't supposed to release. It was made by interns and the government wanted the product shown since they spent money on subsidies for Ubisoft. This company basically used free labor around the world to build a trash game and sell it at a high price

Neat concept executed horribly.

Short of AC Black flag and maybe sea of thieves there aren't really good pirate games out there. 😔

Skull and Bones actually has a lot less than Black Flag has in terms of gameplay and intractability with the environment and NPCs

I win!" before dropping two joke responses saying Charlie had no evidence. After failing to raid Charlie's reddit, discord and stream, he later deleted those two joke responses, went back to his server to say edgy stuff like how he's going to kill Cr1tikal, and then made a "proper" response but uploading it to an alt account. The response basically said "I can't control the server, therefore, I'm not at fault for CP. Charlie has no evidence they uploaded it anyway."

That's Psychotic.
Microsoft wants laptop users to get so comfortable with its artificial intelligence chatbot that it will remember everything you’re doing on your computer and help figure out what you want to do next.

The software giant on Monday revealed a new class of AI-imbued personal computers as it confronts heightened competition from Big Tech rivals in pitching generative AI technology that can compose documents, make images and serve as a lifelike personal assistant at work or home.

We can hardly trust Windows to not fuck up their own update system

Linux as your Daily Driver with a Windows VM / seperate dedicated PC for when you're forced to use it where Proton, etc is not working

Not exactly a real choice, but you work with what you have

I'd actually love to see how this would work given GDPR

#

Or shared PC's and the info leaking between users

#

What we should be asking these companies is to stop hoarding this type of data remotely and start doing it locally on our systems

nobody but the AI needs to process that

Not even that, "Opt In" should be the default for these kind of systems, and there is no way in hell this will fly for a OS in a more secure or restricted environment

#

Just because the data is stored locally doesn't mean it won't be exfiltrated by a hack at some point soon.
Not if, but when.
And then the attacker has a pet AI trained on your personality and quirks.
Amaaaaazing

#

No more having to do any research on the target, just nick the data and you will have all you ever need to know

#

"That won't happen" - the data will be linked to your MS account, which they are trying to force you to use on your OS, so you can have the "seamless" experience all over.. so the data will be tranferrable
