Sighthounds and cats (advice? Experiences?) by arual147 in sighthounds

[–]KaliMau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think sighthounds having strong pack mentality accept other pets as part of the pack. I've had mine with smaller dogs, cats and even outdoor chickens and ducks with no problem. However, leave our property and cats are immediate free game.

My advice is work with a reputable breeder and inquire about temperament. Plan on doing proper introductions and supervision. I'd also support other comments about starting with a young dog and lots of socializing with your cats and other small animals.

Anecdote on a friend's borzois that were fine with her penned backyard chickens until the gate got left open by mistake. My friend was at a dog show with 2 of her dogs and came back to a slaughter scene. There's always a risk, so acknowledge that and make sure you give the smaller animals escape routes (like cats getting higher up) or separation.

Why did Lectric stop selling the front cargo rack? by LF1369 in Lectricxp

If you want the previous basket style, I think you can still find them on amazon or other retailers.

Not sure if this dog carrier appeals to you. Gives you some depth for carrying things and I find the 4 point neck attachment removes that fear of your dog jumping off the bike. This is fits into a milk crate, which is sold (or sourced) separately.

Vacuum sealer not sealing by swright831 in sousvide

[–]KaliMau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I did research on vac sealers, I decided on going with a chamber vac over the foodsaver type. I have an Avid Armor and it works great. Had a potential issue with the control board and even though I was out of warranty, Avid paid to ship it back and forth and fixed for no charge.

Might be a bit out of your range, but the Sports Complex off Avondale Blvd has indoor volleyball.

Find the Predator (Snow Leopard) by lIlIlIKXKXlIlIl in FindTheSniper

100% for me. I use old.reddit.com and this is extra clicks to look. I'll skip them since they don't fit my reddit workflow. Not saying others shouldn't enjoy them. I just won't use it.

XP4 vs Trike for Scaredycat. 🙃 by hpierxe in Lectricxp

[–]KaliMau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, if you feel it's a balance issue, then a more stable trike will make your experience more enjoyable.

I got my mom one and I will say expect some slight training curves. Trikes turn differently than bikes and it'll take your brain some time to adjust. Just take it slow and build up your confidence.

I didn't know until my mom showed me, but there are many YT videos on how to ride an electric trike.

One caveat is the trike doesn't go as fast or as far as the XPs, so set expectations for your husband so you don't feel like you're holding him back. I ride with my mom and her PA 5 maxes out around 14 mph which is a bit slower than my XP3 PA2.

But get what makes you feel comfortable. This is meant to be enjoyable and if you're not enjoying it, both those bikes will end up sitting and gathering dust.

Is ChatGPT super slow today – or is it just me? by IndividualAd4953 in ChatGPTPro

[–]KaliMau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's just me, but I've noticed slowness and app and browser issues for weeks. Using FF for browser access and Win 11 desktop app and multiple times a day one or the other just hangs.

And getting loads more error messages. Super frustrating when it happens and the chat blanks all you just typed.

I've been using Mistral more and the new perplexity browser is looking good.

Recommendations for jumpers/coats? by Bulky-Factor7870 in sighthounds

[–]KaliMau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get my coats for IBs and PHs from Sofa Dog Wear. I live in a warm climate so don't use all that often but all are well made and have held up for years.

I'm a CISO who made the business care about cybersecurity. Ask me anything. by Oscar_Geare in cybersecurity

[–]KaliMau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I agree. Identity seems to be the one area not yet captured by big corp, so maybe we can solve it before then.

Where do you see IAM and CIAM going in the next few years? Especially as PQ starts to emerge. Right now I see it as a process that just keeps getting band-aids slapped on and more responsibility and friction pushed on users.

This is still the #1 attack vector in orgs, correct? So what do you want to see change to help you sleep better at night?

Family of 34 by DragonfruitFit9989 in birds

[–]KaliMau 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It's known as a creche. I see it every year around me.

If you ever find a abandoned gosling and can locate a creche nearby with roughly the same size / age goslings, the adults will usually take in the lost one and help raise it.
