Clay soil. The bubbles aren’t flammable, I held a long lighter over them and they actually blew it out. I got close and smelled the bubbles, they didn’t smell distinctive, maybe slightly sewery. There are no utilities that I know of under there, but the area has been occupied for a long time, and my house is 100 years old.
I’m curious if any of you still use anything other than fediverse. Since discovering it last year I’ve deleted all my non fedi social media, and it feels great!
I just finished listening to the latest Behind the Bastards episodes, and was quite surprised to find this was one of the least bastardly subjects in the history of the podcast. In it, Robert Evans mentioned that none of the children have come forward with allegations of sexual abuse (or with any allegations at all)....
I mean i understand some matches may be fixed but when two popular players fight would any of them want to be the loser ? And the damage looks very real or is the only fixed thing the outcome ? Maybe someone from the industrty can answer . Or am i missing something if so put it into the comments and i’ll edit the post.
Hey all! This may be kind of a dumb post as I know I need to make this decision myself, but I‘d sure love some advice. My oldest dog is 11, going on 12. The poor girl is diabetic, blind, has fatty lipomas, and mobility issues due to diabetes, breed, and age. This morning, we are fairly sure she had a stroke of some sort (the...
Every day there’s more big job cuts at tech and games companies. I’ve not seen anything explaining why they all seam to be at once like this. Is it coincidence or is there something driving all the job cuts?
I understand the problem with server overloading and the problems with hosting big database etc. But can’t we host short , compressed videos with just good enough quality . Like some of the high quality gifs on lemmy is much ,much bigger than the kind of videos i described . Or am i missing something ? I do understand the...
So I’ve seen passing ironic references to DARE in American media representing it as a bit of a joke. That media was intended for American audiences so didn’t really elaborate on what the program entailed but I somehow already knew without any need of such context that it was an anti-drugs public outreach campaign and was...
EDIT : It seems as no one understood what i was talking about and maybe its my fault for not elaborating . I always thought chicken was a metaphor for this paradox and not really meaning chicken as a specific spiece . So my question is how did the ancestor of chicken came to be if it was born (egg) wouldn’t it need a parent or...
I’ve looked at suggestions on StackExchange and made some changes to files in /etc but after each login or reboot it is up to 100 % again in pavucontrol. On this computer I hardly ever use the speakers, and I want the microphone muted, always, so I guess I could even block list a few kernel modules for sound (which ones ?)....
Some people change their socks every single day, to me that’s a little to much. I’m more of a 2-3days kinda guy. Is changing socks each day absolutely necessary?...
There isn’t enough people on Lemmy to have niche communities finding someone interested in threads for example here is like finding a grain(Though niche communities like spec evo in for pages I own probably could take take off If I put enough effort into it) in the sand people will follow niche sub lemmings and they will...
