    Crows are intelligent birds and learn quickly – even from each other. In Sweden, they are used to collect cigarette butts and bring them to a machine that automatically rewards them with peanuts.

  • That image is not real. I wouldn't trust anything from a "source" that uses AI generated images in their "journalism".

    Which German publication is that? So we can shame them.

  • Beaks are not mouths. And they're not ingesting and regurgitating them. So I doubt there's enough toxic compounds leaking into the crows for it to be a problem in their lifetime.

    If anything, it's far better that crows recycle them, than other birds eating or building neats nests out of them.

  • Hurray! This German State Decides to Save €15 Million Each Year By Kicking Out Microsoft for Open Source

  • That's not what he is saying. Quit that strawman bullshit.

    It's not exactly a secret that competence for Microsoft Solutions is far more frequent than competence of various Linux solutions, if someone built that solution at all.

    At my work, If a windows user gets a windows related problem, we probably have hundreds of people that can fix it.

    If a Linux user get a Linux related problem. If they can't fix it themselves, then IT probably can't fix it either. Not because our IT is useless, but because the Linux guys know know Linux better than IT. So we'd have to call in a contractor to help them.

    And they are not cheap. Because there's not a lot of Linux experts right now.

  • MAGA propagandist Will Chamberlain "It should be American policy to force the dissolution of the European Union. Punish countries that stay in, reward those that leave"

  • Eh... you're being even more short sighted than Trump.

    EU leaders are not children. They have plans that goes beyond who the current president is.

    We've been Allies for a very long time. Exchanging technology, products and services. It's not as easy as just "cut them off". A lot of companies in EU have taken steps to become more independent in case of a major fallout with the US. But it's not exactly the thing you hear about on the news.

    I can only speculate from what I know of my workplace. We are taking steps. But it takes time. We can't just stop all services and take a break for 5 years while we spend God knows how much money developing our own software and solutions.

    We still need to keep a cash flow while we transition.

  • Hillary Clinton Joins in Blaming TikTok for Young Americans' View That Israel Is Committing Genocide

  • Stop calling it a genocide, it's just a simple case of systematically eradicating a specific group of people. - Hillary Clinton (probably)

  • Trump wants the NFL to change its name so that soccer is the only sport called football: ‘We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff’

    Jump

  • This is one of the rare cases where I don't disagree with Trump.

    But they could just call it what the rest of the world call their sport. "American Football".

    It has their favorite word in it. America.

  • Interesting, The top one is a "brown haired nurse."

    Second, how dare you?

  • I think even a bad translation is better than no translation at all

    I disagree with that. Example.

    Vs

    Brun hårig sjuk sköterska

    They look the same. But I can assure you. They mean two very, very, different things.

  • Yeah? You're supposed to put it down after You're done.

    I'm not gonna thank someone for flushing the loo after they're done either.

  • Japanese game developers face ridiculously high font license fees following US acquisition of major domestic provider. Live-service games to take the biggest blow

    Jump

  • And each dev is free to make their own font. But if they want to uses someone else's, it stands to reason they might have to pay that someone else.

    If you draw a really cool painting. That doesn't mean I'm allowed to then just scan your artwork, print it on bottles and sell them.

    The problem here is no one had the foresight to realise it's a pretty big issue when you're leasing the rights to a specific font for a specific period of time, what happens after the lease expires?

    If they did, the contractual language would be different.

    It's not a problem in this sector alone. It's a problem, in many sectors, but no one seems to learn from others mistakes.

  • You don't need a unified theory of why animals have binocular vision.

    The biggest threat to a primate isn't always felines, it's often other primates. Judging distance to your target is a very beneficial trait for survival if you need to fight them. Which means if you need to survive other primates, it is beneficial to be able to judge distance to other primates. Even if you're not a predator.

    Gorillas might be herbivores. But they are excellent at fighting eachother. And a dead gorilla can't reproduce.

  • I would assume a lot of fear isn't just from the Sallad having nuts, but that it would be cross contaminated.

    I don't know where you get coffee where they decorate it with nuts, but I need to know. So I can avoid them. Not that I'm allergic. I just think that's sacrilegious.

  • This isn't meant to be an "achktually", just a bit of trivia on the process of how we prepare meat.

    And why, their hyperbole is actually even dumber than you think once you know the process.

    After we kill an animal, it is left to hang for a couple of days depending on temperature. And it is so oxygen can interact and the meat starts to break down a bit, it decays. It's slowly rotting. And there's a fine balance between decay and bacteria growth. Simplified. The closer you are to that line, and the longer it can hang, the more tender it will be.

    E.g. wild game is suggested to hang for at least 40 "day temperature". So if the average temperature is 5 degrees Celcius, it needs to hang for 8 days. 5*8=40. If the average temperature is lower, it hangs for longer. It's generally believed you need at least 2 degrees for the decay process to happen the way we want to. And if you start to reach 10 degrees, you have a much higher risk of bacteria growth. (These are in the context of average temperatures, hanging outdoors)

    I don't know the ins and outs of beef or pork, but the principle is the same. And today, I would assume all slaughter-houses have large stable rooms where the temperature and airflow is controlled down to the decimals.

    So... I'd say yeah, the sight of a cut of meat, prepared in a highly controlled decay process. Is incredibly savory. Because you know it's gonna be tender as hell!
