My African Grey could easily cause me serious damage but he does hold back by only giving me warning bites. He thinks he’s being gentle but it still hurts and I don’t ever forget what they are capable of.

Ooo yea rubbing alcohol works too in a pinch. I’ve been lucky enough not to have to do it. I typically stuck to working with our carpet pythons and left the boas to my husband.
No not where I live. When my husband and I kept hot inverts along with our snakes I kept a comprehensive supplemental insurance just in case someone got hurt, but the laws here only apply for reporting illegal animals.
The key to dealing with a (pet) snake bite is to not pull back in fear. Their teeth are definitely like Velcro. Usually I’d just let them go to town and then run some hot tap water over their head. They don’t like the water and immediately let go. With birds you’re getting hurt no matter what you do.
Crazy parrot and reptile lady here to confirm. I would much rather take a bite from a large snake any day of the week than take a bite from one of my birds. I’ve had to get stitches multiple times because of my little feathered assholes.
Had a good snort at that title. Well played.
Well at the the article did sort of explain why the team was pursuing this line of study. Too bad they didn’t learn anything more useful.
If you’ve ever been in southern VA in the summer you’ll understand the name “Dismal.” It is nice that we have protected wetlands though.
Ah yes, the “Flounder” of the snek world.
I’m using mine almost exclusively now. My PS4 is dying and I don’t want a PS5 so I’m currently buying my favorite games from that system in steam. Occasionally I’ll co-op game on the Xbox with my husband and I’ll pick up my switch whenever I get the itch to play animal crossing. But truthfully my vision is getting worse as I get older so the steam deck has become my favorite. My only regret is not getting the version with bigger storage. I haven’t tried streaming games from my PC yet but that’s my only option right now for larger games like Forza.
I agree. The same thing with the words idiot and moron. I find the whole evolution and usage of words to be fascinating.
I really do think about this from time to time as to why we ever even used this word. I grew up the same as you where we all said it and used it as a replacement word for “ass” in situations where cussing wasn’t allowed but you needed a word that hit a bit harder than calling someone stupid. I can’t ever remember a time anyone I knew using it as a slur because someone would beat your ass if you got caught bullying anyone disabled. Now that I know that it is offensive I don’t use it. But for me it’s a bit weird fully relating to the current perception of the word in today’s society because I still have mostly positive memories of goofing off with friends associated with it.
Cool. Yea I saw all of the hardware they’re pushing and that’s what made me wonder what’s going on there. I use professional grade software for work but I’d like to have more professional features for home too without the high cost of entry.
Just looked at Resolve and I definitely want to try this out. It almost sounds too good to be true. Anyone here tried it?
Ooo I just started my Linux journey and I’m definitely checking out that YouTube channel.
This is good to know. I want to put Mint on my laptop but I do like the look of steamdeck desktop too.
And together they will all sing me the song of their people in a glorious harmony of “AHHHH.”
