As far as I am aware, grazing animals like cows or sheep poop in the same meadows where they eat grass, but presumably don’t have any problems eating the grass and pooping in the same space. But if humans would eat vegetables that they had pooped on, my understanding is that we would get sick....
Hey All,...
Is there a similar solve for say … 4^12 + 4^23
I am not a film maker in any way. So then why do so many news sites tell me about how much money the film has taken in during its first weekend, week, etc…?...
I started lifting weights (again) and accurately tracking my progress (I bought a “cheap” workout and weight loss plan, which requires a lot of data so you can see your progress (or regress)). When bench pressing and doing squats on the (Cybex) Smith Machine I had assumed that the bar weighed 45 pounds like a free bar does...
To clarify the point for my four-legged friends. How do you resolve the incongruity between this and the conventional view? Which is that people are self-aware creatures with valuable opinions .
I was recently involuntarily held in a mental hospital where I went through prison like conditions (strip search, had to wear scrubs, was locked in a room outside certain times a day, stuff like that) and thankfully came out in one piece after 8 days of this crap.

If two people agree to a debate, but one of them participates in bad faith, and spends the majority of the time talking over the other, sidestepping virtually every point their counterpart makes, blatantly lies, employs personal insults and frequently airs irrelevant grievances, is it still considered a debate?
I’d like something like JBL Charge, but with USB port that I can connect to PC and speaker would act like external audio device. I’ve only found ones with USB-A to insert pen-drive, which is not the same....
I haven’t spent long on Lemmy, but I see a lot of posts with their title literally being “Title”. Is it meant to be a joke? Is it because the title would otherwise be a quote ripped from the image/post itself, and the posters don’t want their fellow Lemmites to get bored from reading the same bit of text twice? Reason...
Here are some specific questions....
I would consider myself a good driver on the right side of the road but I am wondering if visiting Ireland and renting a car is for me....
Hello lemmy! ^^...
This is what “embrace, extend, extinguish” means btw: link
