Is this thing on?

  • "Gen V" promoting hunting kangaroos (the tv show, not the vegan org)

    Jump

  • who never aim for the best

    They aim for what is available. This is usually the weakest, but not necessarily. Particularly with pack hunters.

    obviously doesn’t strengthen the herd

    Obviously (eyerolls and gestures to all the prey animals clearly doing well due to their regulated hunting).

  • "Gen V" promoting hunting kangaroos (the tv show, not the vegan org)

    Jump

  • You need to really consider how significant the difference is between intention and action in this regard. A hunter 'intends' to get the best animal they encounter. In the wild, Prime animals will not give them the opportunity. Even getting the biggest animal they've ever heard of isn't necessarily the 'best' one out there. Being so large it is likely old, and past its prime. You're basically arguing against a definition. By being culled it is, by definition, not good enough.

    This is first year ecology stuff. You are arguing with feelings instead of looking at the harsh realities involved. Audit a first year biology class if you want your concerns to be taken seriously.

  • "Gen V" promoting hunting kangaroos (the tv show, not the vegan org)

    Jump

  • Aiming for best, and actually getting it are 2 different things.

  • "Gen V" promoting hunting kangaroos (the tv show, not the vegan org)

    Jump

  • Unless they specifically hunt the weakest and sickest and oldest kangaroos

    They do. IRL the animals that get culled are those that were too weak, slow, or careless to avoid getting got. Hunting in the wild (whether done by humans or animals) has this feature innately, like it or not.

    Frankly OP's wall of text is deeply ignorant of the realities involved. The only argument that holds water without a simple 'citation needed' rebuttle is his first point regarding individual rights. Even then, we knowingly set aside that concern to prioritize the survival of the species.

  • Thousands of trucks from China build up at Russia–Kazakhstan border amid the Kazakh government's enhanced controls, stricter enforcement of Western sanctions

    Jump

  • Pics or it didn't happen.

  • Science nerds of Lemmy: Is there an upper limit on the volume of a "confined gas"?

    Jump

  • It's important to remember the word 'ideal' that dictates the conditions needed. The gas cannot be mixing with an 'external' source, gaining or losing energy to it's surroundings beyond the changes being specifically examined, is not subject to any forces or conditions not considered, and so on...

    You're literally asking 'at what point are perfect conditions, impossible to every truly achieve, implausible?'. The answer to that: as soon as any factor cannot be simply ignored for the sake of simplifying the math.

  • Woof is dog for "You may test that assumption at your convenience"

    Jump

  • Sorry mate, but any first year biology student learns that the higher up the food chain the more concentrated the heavy metals are. Take Tuna. As free range as you can get but it is advised to minimize consumption, particularly when pregnant, due to the high mercury content.

    While lifestyle does affect palatability of the meat (Bear near the dump always tastes 'off') it is more a question of 'what' is being bioaccumulated, not 'if'. In your example scavengers are bioaccumulating pesticides and preservatives, whereas the successful predator accumulates all the heavy metals its prey, and their prey, and their prey (repeat until the bottom of the tree) consumed.

    You can't get around it. All high level predators have shitty meat, whether it tastes bad or not.

  • Delivery driver foils Texas hostage situation after alerting police to alarming order details

    Jump

  • Adding a "litre" of cola to the order, in Texas, would definitely have made it suspicious.

  • Sixty-nine people drown as migrant boat capsizes off coast of Mauritania

    Jump

  • TIL it is 3085km to Nice, France.

  • I didn't get the rest but take solace in knowing how her story ends.

  • I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?

    Jump

  • My favourite technique learnt during Lifeguard training was The Eggbeater. Basically picture yourself sitting in a kitchen chair but whirling your lower legs in opposite directions. You do this very loosely and slowly. It allows you to tread water while leaving your hands free. You 'can' use your hands by slowly sweeping your arms out wide forwards and backwards but this is only to reduce the workload so that you can very easily stay afloat with minimal effort (without floation devices).

    The same technique can propel you on your back by simply leaning back a bit. It is good because it uses different muscles than typical flutter kicking etc. so you can switch it up if you get tired.

    Has the machine uprising already begun? In China, a humanoid robot suddenly attacked terrified engineers during testing

  • Imagine that. Someguy is watching pornhub, just jackin it, and then his webcam records him as he suddenly without warning gets punched in the face.

    And we all watch.

    .. in horror because it is that dude's kink.

  • Was he ever cognitively there?

    Jump

  • "Trump is not cognitively there".

    So, he's the perfect representative for the American people.

  • They got me😔

  • Why. The Fuck. Are they allowing prison inmates to torture cats?! /s

  • It is along the thinking of "kill one of my family members, I take one of yours in response". You're stretching the definition of 'nothing to do with' in a world where ACAB is the current prevailing sentiment.

  • Tesla tells Model Y and Cybertruck workers to stay home for a week

    Jump

  • There's been a bit of complaining regarding the effectiveness regarding protesting car dealerships etc...

    Felt like this might be considered an indication Tesla is starting to crack.
