It’s a surveying tool. It logs the creatures you encounter and provides relevant information as a reward when the special capturing device registers and tags the creature. From this data they can understand populations, territories, genetic variations, migration habits, etc.

2·3 days agoHere’s what you do: get a bike rack and bungee core a milk crate to it. Bonus points for a milk crate that looks well worn and like it lived an entire lifetime before it took up residence on your bike. The look is timeless, a classic of style, unquestionable. From there you can store anything you want, hat included.
Or don’t. You wouldn’t ask a stranger on the street for their opinion, so why care what they think?

31·7 days agoStory on this one. As a young adult I needed gas to drive to my second job a town over, maybe 12 miles. I had $75 in my account which was plenty to fill up.
When I started the process, my card was declined. I tried and failed a few times, then went inside the store and had them try there to no success. The cashier mentioned that the hold amount was set by the bank.
Hearing this I went down the road too my bank and asked them what the fuck was going on, to which they said it was normal and that my funds were locked until the transaction went through. The 0$ transaction.
I managed to scrounge up enough change and a single $5 bill I had in my wallet to buy like 2 gallons of gas which was just enough to get to work and back. Shortly thereafter I closed my account at that bank and transferred everything to a credit union I have been much happier with.

My ability to zone out and get lost in my head is legendary.
Although, I have used headphones for grocery shopping during busy times because music helps keep me from becoming enraged at stupid people.

I second New Balance. 10.5 EEEEEE here.
Which reminds me… I should order a new pair.
3·20 days agoGood on ya, that’s an awful lot of work. I did something similar years ago with 2,000 emails and it took forever.
The thing to do now is stay on top of the emails coming in and unsubscribe or block any that remain. If you can stem the flow you won’t need to purge again.

Yeah, that’s nice and all, but is that a glass of milk and fucking ketchup?
“Can you fucking not?”
Depends on the costume. One year I spent almost $200 on Wreck-it Ralph, but that was a pair of overalls and two shirts I can still wear. The next was like $1000+ on electronics and components for a LED wizard orb I spent a month making and like $20 in fabric for a robe. This year was probably $50 for fabric, cardboard, and tape for a terrible Ken The Butcher costume.
What you do is entirely up to you and your situation. Cheap materials make it cheaper, but the costume may only be single use. The orb was stupid expensive because I went fancy and made an object that would last, but that’s hardly necessary.
I did a similar project with a raspberry pi pico w and a glitter lamp. I ended up destroying the surface mount LEDs trying to solder them in to the board and instead replaced them with my own. The stirring motor was good, and a button to control it from the outside was a nice addition. Put the whole thing together with ESP Home and it’s fantastic. Also allowed me to switch from disposable batteries to a standard USB cable for power.
The issues get fixed, conversation happens, and there is content worth engaging in without feeling like an endless trap of doomscrolling.
Top ten answers on the board; we asked 100 users “How will Canva cover the costs of the software development if Affinity is free?”

Crossing the street is a momentary delay, a few seconds while driver sits in a climate-controlled chair with optional music, but parking across a sidewalk hinders people for minutes, hours, or even days until it is removed. The road isn’t wide enough to allow people to safely enter the street to go around the obstruction, and that says nothing about those who rely on sidewalls for free movement such as the elderly, injured, and disabled.
In short, blocking other people for longer than is reasonable makes you a dick.
Every towel I have ever used has a tag on it, that’s the crotch end, dry your face with the other end.
