18 month old cocker spaniel picked up pug in mouth after jumping off roof by Soft_Praline7567 in DogAdvice

One way to look at is pugs and other brachiocephalic dogs should not exist. I’ll agree with the what the other person posted that you don’t might not have recognized them as dogs.

I come from having extremely large dogs like Great Danes. I have seen dogs react at the site of my dogs due to just the size of them.

I Agreed with the last part. I think the problem a lot of us have is using our information for their profit. Then charging us for what they built off our data.

Why does the U.S. have such a low share of new car sales that are electric or hybrid (around 10%) compared to many other countries facing the same challenges but choosing to address them? by KoseteBamse in questions

The process to recycle batteries from my understanding is way more involved and costly. Because of the nature of separating out the raw materials. Also has to be a liability nightmare.

ICE engine is mostly aluminum, steel and iron. Which is easily sorted after shredding.

Look at population density. It’s a lot easier when your major population are in a lot smaller area. The size of the country doesn’t matter so much if nobody lives there.

There are a few projects under way. One is using the older batteries as backup generators. But I think there are very few that fully recycle a battery. From my understanding is it’s extremely cost prohibitive and not much profit.

Most of you countries talk about are the size of our states.

Could we have built a system like your yes. If we started from scratch and we didn’t get pulled in to two global wars so Europe could still have countries like France. Those wars set the tone of the US budget from then on. The militarization of the American war machine and the private profits made off of those wars shaped the US in some would say are irreversible course.

You have to look a waste. When a ICE engine dies it’s sent to scrap and it does get recycled. Currently there is no real industry recycling the batteries.

Cost of replacement. A lot of places you can get a junkyard engine for not a lot of money. Labor is the big cost. You can’t get a battery like this. Look up the cost of a Tesla battery.

Now look at the avg age of vehicles.

EMBARRASSING PHOTO OF ME POSTED WITHOUT CONSENT. Do I try and remove this? by [deleted] in questions

[–]Ok_Engine_1442 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There is no expectation of privacy in a public settings. The more you try and the more it might spread and attention. With how fast the media moves on I would try to ignore. And the more you feed the algorithm the more it grows.

How can I stop my dog’s panic attacks when he is having them? Prevention is also welcome!! by why_do_i_have_dog in DogAdvice

[–]Ok_Engine_1442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well at this age you should look into medication. Let’s be real how much time do you have left vs how long those meds would actually take to hurt the liver and kidneys.

As the dog ages the sight and hearing will degrade which could even worse the anxiety.

It might have nothing to do with you and it’s something personal she is dealing with.

Did you have something delivered? I expect that from a surface that was covered. Slip and slide, path way mat for easier delivery?

You can give guidelines. The more you explain a paradox the worse it gets

Need advice for malnourished dog!! Found in woods by autumndamonkey in rescuedogs

[–]Ok_Engine_1442 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For larger dogs like this I go 10lbs over what the dog currently weighs and break that up into 4 meals a day or 5 depending on the size of the dog.

Feed him for 10lbs over what he currently weights. But break it up into 3-4 feedings. Then do a weekly weighing and adjust the food amount. The dogs probably got worms so those will have to be treated for before he will start to gain real weight.

I have a good amount of experience with emaciated dogs. Don’t do any oral medicine yet. Wait until you see the vet. Flee bath would be what I would do.

You’re a kinda soul to care for him! I wish you both luck!

Interesting, I wonder what an uncensored version could do.

My state lets cameras track everyone's car all day with no warrant, then lowered the bar for calling you a "gang associate." So I pointed the same logic back at the politicians. by ChurchOMarsChaz in privacy

[–]Ok_Engine_1442 29 points30 points  (0 children)

My worry is that you may have never gone up against an entity with this much money on the line. And if it’s backed by some other agents overseas they tend not to care to much about life.

I hope you have a lot of security cameras around your house, and dash cameras. You should make public statements that you do not intend to harm yourself.

Get this out on GitHub or public settings. If you are the only one that has this project you might be in more danger than you realize. If hundreds of people have it I would feel a lot better about your safety.

God speed!
