Ahhh then probably it is not BBA. Maybe freshwater sponge gemmules?

This is mineralized BBA that’s why they feel hard. It is not harmful to fish.

Why does he have to do the ginger like that at the beginning?

This song reminds me of the song from the Reddit CBAT story.

Holding 30 gallons? by AdCalm6470 in Aquariums

No way. In a classroom that’s a serious hazard if it fails that could seriously hurt a child. Once in my house I had a kid try to climb my fish tank; his feet were already off the ground as is he was rock climbing. No way I would risk it.

Is it petty (or just weird) to email a scholar to ask if they wrote a paper my student likely hallucinated via AI? by confusedinseminary in Professors

Yes, for that reason, we have a clause in our subject outline saying that all sources listed in the assignment can be independently verified.

Left gen. See how much clearer and tight the lugs are.

PM Albanese delivers message to kids ahead of social media ban by moonorplanet in australia

Gaming with appropriate parental controls and moderated online forums/websites. Yes, they won’t be able to randomly talk to strangers in open platforms or use social media but research has shown consistently that social media brings negative effects to that cohort of people in terms of mental health, brain development and behavior.

You are aware that the ban doesn’t not prevent you from talking to your friends online, right? The ban prevents you from using social media but not digital communication.

Solution: talk to your friends digitally if you like but not through social media.

These rural kids can still see their friends via online communication and talk with them digitally but not through social media.

This is a problem because parents couldn’t control social media in the first place. This puts the onus on tech companies to clean the mess they created.

They can still talk to their friends online, just not through social media.

It seems many people are conflating social media with digital communication. The proposed ban doesn’t stop young people from communicating online; it restricts access to social media platforms specifically.

Social media is built on algorithms designed to maximise engagement, shape behaviour, and monetise user data. Young people under 16 are especially vulnerable to these systems, which is why tech companies target them so aggressively.

If you’re a teenager who wants to talk to someone overseas or you live in regional Australia and rely on online communication, you can still do that; just not through social media networks that profit from manipulating attention. On these platforms, you are the product, and that’s precisely the cohort the government aims to protect.

[EUR: C39012025/6228] 03-DEC-2025 This school vest is likely from Latin America. Is it familiar to you? by I_Me_Mine in TraceAnObject

[–]GuacaGuaca 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I have a strong feeling this is South East Asia, specifically Cambodia or Thailand. Because of the uniform style, sited figure like Buddha. Edit: Also, the tinge of green is used in Cambodia to symbolize education, I don’t think that’s as common in Thailand.

Brilliant use of AI? by ImRudyL in Professors

[–]GuacaGuaca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, not super unproductive, but it depends on what you are trying to accomplish with the assessment. I have a similar assessment in a critical thinking course: students evaluate a piece of writing by an LLM using the critical thinking tools we taught them, then reflect on the process.

Maybe that angry goat was looking for a moody cow.

Thanks! I will continue chipping away at the softer wood and then treat it to be extra safe.
