A Sydney man has said he was “totally amazed” when snake catchers removed a bumper haul of 102 venomous snakes from a single spot in his backyard.
David Stein called in snake relocators after seeing what he estimated were six red-bellied black snakes on a large mulch pile on his property in the western Sydney suburb of Horsley Park on Friday.
After Stein’s dog was bitten by a juvenile red-bellied black in December, he said it was a “relief” the snakes were no longer making his yard their home, but also happy “they’ll be released into the wild in a safe environment and preserved”.
As for why they were all in his yard:
He said it was common for female red-bellies to share birthing sites, “but actually being there and the babies being born, I haven’t seen anything like that. It’s a highlight”.
Bonus:
He said the final tally would climb from 102 because one female was yet to give birth.
Such empathy 😄
Wow this one is nice, thanks!
Both Boost and Sync tend to get infrequent but large updates. Since the dev is still around, I don't think it's abandonned :)
I don't have the discussion on hand right now, but it's come up a few times that lemmy.world is dealing with slowness. I think the hardware is having a hard time keeping up with their size, and they're running an older version of Lemmy on top of that.
You could try another instance in the meantime?
A number of the smaller communities are a little sleepy, but will pick right up if you post to them :)
Could you give a short guide on how to use it, and what the limits are? A link would be cool too :)
I was thinking it was AI at first, but I settled on it being a scan of a photograph which then got processed weirdly by the scanning software
This is what they listed:
What makes CIRA’s IPT test different?
CIRA’s IPT is made up of test servers located throughout Canada at various Internet Exchange Points (IXPs). IXPs are critical hubs on the Canadian internet and play an important part in the efficient and fast transfer of data securely within our borders. Currently located in Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal and Moncton, these servers run a network diagnostic test (NDT) provided by M-Lab, which allows us to run a variety of tests measuring everything from network speed and latency to blocking and throttling.
I think a benefit specific to this project is to build up data that could be used to put more pressure on the telecom companies to fix the issues?
The CIRA Internet Performance Test (IPT) is a quick and easy test of your internet connection, either at home or at work, that gathers data for communities, researchers and decision makers so they can better understand and improve Canada’s internet. It also provides advanced users with detailed technical diagnostic information.
Users can now explore trends and performance data from previous tests, gaining a deeper understanding of internet performance changes over time. These insights empower individuals, researchers and policymakers to track progress and identify gaps.

If you wanted to use the most secure tools available, you'd have to sacrifice a lot of usability. And, even then, nothing is ever fully secure. There's high security, but never full security. That's why threat models are important.
A threat model is a list of the most probable threats to your security and privacy endeavors. Since it's impossible to protect yourself against every attack(er), you should focus on the most probable threats. In computer security, a threat is an event that could undermine your efforts to stay private and secure.

Congratulations! Looking forward to trying this :)
It could be simple to design since you can have the content federate in and then ignore the removals. That's one of the risks of posting on federated places since there's always a chance that some instance won't respect deletions.
However, if such a tool was made, it might be good to have it be text only and/or hidden behind a login screen. The vast majority of content I remove is spam, and occasionally gross. I wouldn't want that stuff to still be out there polluting the internet
Looks cozy! Also ptarmigans make a cool sound

The way you see nutrition labels on food packaging is about to change. By 2025, new front-of-package labels will start appearing on grocery store shelves, and by January 2026, they’ll be mandatory.
Over the past two decades, nutrition labelling has evolved into a cornerstone of public health strategies worldwide. Traditional back-of-package labels, which provide comprehensive nutritional details, are often overlooked due to their complexity and placement, making them less effective in guiding consumer choices.
Front-of-package labels address this issue by simplifying key nutritional information and positioning it in a more prominent, visible space. This streamlined approach has proven successful in leading consumers toward healthier choices, as research indicates that simplified, visible labels can influence purchasing decisions
