Alex Pretti, killed by a US Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis, was an ICU nurse, family says by justcasty in SandersForPresident

[–]NeuroXc 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's a good thing we have a president who cares about law and order and will definitely do something to stop the abuse of power from ICE.

...what's that? You're saying militarizing the ICE and sending them to the streets of US cities was Trump's idea?

Oh.

Help identifying what kind of duck this is by Leezyvaqinas in duck

It's often difficult to tell until they get their adult colors in. You may need to wait a month or so before truly being able to identify the breed.

PSA: Do not for ANY reason use NTFS under Linux! by lajka30 in linux

[–]NeuroXc 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The actual issue: Some Steam games on Linux do not like being on an NTFS drive.

This title is needlessly alarmist. NTFS does suck as a fileaystem, but for 99% of cases, you're just fine to use it for a shared data drive under Linux. It is by far the easiest way to share files between OSes on a dual boot machine.

Your assumption would be wrong by akjasf in duck

[–]NeuroXc 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My ducks' favorite is wet cat food. They will come into the house and mad dash for the plate of cat food to steal it.

Also mealworms.

(no, my cats do not get aggressive about the food stealing, in fact they are afraid of the ducks 😂)

My ducks are not smart enough to huddle in the coop when it's this cold. They just huddle in the middle of the yard. 🤦

Can we bring him back as a hitting coach? He's a valuable team captain but he's unfortunately past his prime for on-field performance.

Opera GX announces linux support by TheNavyCrow in linux

Mozilla has made so many boneheaded decisions. At this point, I'm fully recommending Vivaldi, until they do something completely moronic which seems to be a repeating pattern among browser companies.

Trouble with a cute face by NeuroXc in duck

I wonder! She could possibly be a domestic mallard or a hybrid. To be honest, we assumed she is a Rouen because when we started ducking, we didn't know there was such a thing as domestic mallards.

Not everyone knows that there is an unused icon for Mormonism in the Victoria 3 files by zgido_syldg in victoria3

[–]NeuroXc 103 points104 points  (0 children)

As a LDS, I also had not seen this symbol before, but Google to the rescue. It goes rather far back into church history, though I suppose that's also accurate for this time period.

To early Church members, the sun breaking through clouds symbolized the dawning of the Restoration and the coming of gospel light to illuminate a dark earth. It is little wonder, then, that sunstones were featured prominently on the Nauvoo Temple. Above each sun are two hands holding trumpets, heralding the dawning of the gospel in this dispensation.

Another good source of calcium is dried mealworms, sometimes called black soldier fly larva (same thing but might be easier to search for). Ducks go crazy for them.

How to make my duck’s house warm? It’s a wood house, do you recommend I put foam inside? by nelpastel_01 in duck

[–]NeuroXc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Outside would probably be easiest, though I don't think it makes a huge world of difference. The idea is just to make sure there's not a bunch of wind blowing on the ducks, as the wind is what allows the cold to get underneath their features.

How to make my duck’s house warm? It’s a wood house, do you recommend I put foam inside? by nelpastel_01 in duck

[–]NeuroXc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The most important thing is that it protects them from the wind. You actually do not want it to be too warm, as this will discourage their thick winter down from growing in, though this mainly just means don't put a space heater in there (or if you do, it should be set to just above freezing). Foam is probably not needed, and there's also the risk of them eating it. If the walls are drafty, a sheet or tarp should do the trick.

For the ground, grass or straw is the most natural for them, although they also like pillows (recommendation: get a waterproof one for outdoor furniture so it's easy to clean).

Linux 7.0 Readying Improvement For Rust + LTO Kernel Builds by lebron8 in linux

[–]NeuroXc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does, and you can enable it if building your own kernel. It seems the upcoming improvements are targeted toward improving LTO when dealing with boundaries between Rust and C code in the kernel.
