There may not come another time where she's in all the news, worldwide. Gotta use every second to promote the upcoming tour with that amount of exposition, i guess.
Tbh it was the most normal headline for me. Not the craziest to happen nowadays.

A cartoon that unexpectedly got me, was about a young Christmas tree, all eager to get chosen by a family. It keeps imagining how cool it will be, until it gets chosen and Christmas actually exceeds all the expectations.
After Christmas, the terror begins, with the family taking the decorations off and putting the tree in the basement. No more water and lonely, it slowly dies off, while rats keep harassing it hard.
It didn't lose hope until the end, always thinking the family is about to come and take it back to the living room. They never came.
It was on TV , on Christmas, shown between the "normal" kind of Christmas cartoons.
Thank you, having reached my 50s, that's my call. But I'll just conquer my house and campaign in the garden.
They were all directed by George Miller, including Furiosa. I think it's the longest running franchise, where the same guy that started it, is still doing his thing.
They are both incredibly photogenic, made for the life in the spotlight
Some can't get enough and want it all
Can't tell if it's gonna be a good or bad talk 😿
They shouldn't be allowed to have "news" in the name then.
Basically you skip the first two steps with free bird poop.
Can i apply this to other areas as well, like building a house or something else?
I think arachnids that aren't spiders scare me even more.

Do you think it's real? Each time i watched, it became more impossible...
Ja, und me too.
I found this squirrel video, that was in the next swipe, to be really satisfying
No problem - I'll check it out on SoundCloud then and also, thank you :3
Elon Musk is a fake!
This is something that should be preached everywhere.
Nice, but it ain't free here on my end. They also say free download, but it's $4.20 min. I feel like I'm missing something here. To be fair, i waked and baked.

This time it's not an onion. I love how close this is to the Onion's "Elon Musk's AI turns on him" story from a few days back
There's a flying squid?
Can squid really fly? Yes, says David Brian Butvill, there are a few squid species that can get airborne... Here's how and why
I knew there's a flying squid that likes to post memes though
If a squid swimming near the surface is spooked by a predator or a boat, it streamlines into a torpedo shape and fires itself out of the water. At the same time, it splays its eight tentacles into a flat, fan-like pattern in front of its face – some breeds even exude mucus to fill in the spaces, creating a unified, kite-like surface. It also flares a pair of fins near its rear end and – voilà – the squid becomes a living, breathing jet.
Novel research published in Ornithological Applications has revealed noteworthy insights into how barred owls (Strix varia) interact with urban environments, with implications for both wildlife conservation and urban planning.
Key findings
Day vs. night habitat use: Barred owls' home ranges were significantly larger at night than during the day, indicating different habitat needs between their active and resting periods. The research emphasizes that preserving green spaces in urban areas can have profound effects on nocturnal and diurnal wildlife.
Energy efficiency in preferred habitats: Owls expended less energy in their preferred nocturnal habitats, suggesting that these areas provide higher-quality resources.
Affluent neighborhoods attract barred owls: Barred owls in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, showed a marked preference for habitats in affluent neighborhoods, supporting the "luxury effect"—the tendency for wealthier areas to harbor greater biodiversity.
Implications for Urban Design: The study advocates for providing and protecting habitat for barred owls to keep this important species, other forest-associated species, and the ecosystem services they provide present and functioning in urb

As in title - woke up today and sync closes instantly after opening. trying a re-install now.

The culprit was Canary Webview. I uninstalled it and everything's ok again. All apps working fine.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk volunteered his sperm to seed a Martian colony, the New York Times reports, highlighting his obsession with the plan.
SpaceX employees' work is breaking barriers, while this asshat keeps terrorizing them with his utter gross bullshit
Edit: after reading through the article again, some passages stuck out, like:
Apart from aspiring to become the biological father for his Martian colony, Musk has leveraged many of his own businesses to create a civilization on Mars, including Boring Company tunnels to dig under the planet's surface and a Tesla Cybertruck rugged enough to traverse its mountainous landscapes.
So, take it all with a grain of salt.

Error Correcting Schemes
To reliably perform complex, large-scale calculations, computing systems rely on so-called error correction schemes, techniques designed to protect information against errors. These techniques are perhaps even more essential when it comes to quantum computers, devices that perform computations lever...

Documents found on a North Korean server suggest US studios may have unknowingly outsourced animation work
North Korean illustrators and graphic designers appear to have helped produce work for US animation studios unbeknownst to those companies, suggesting that unreleased episodes of a few popular American cartoons could include work from one of the most closed-off economies in the world.
The files were discovered in December by Nick Roy, a Boston-based cyber-sleuth who regularly scans the North Korean internet as a hobby. Roy found a new North Korean website that outside visitors didn’t need a password to access, unlocking a trove of animation sketches, and shared them with the Stimson Center, a Washington-based think tank.
The documents include a series of Chinese instructions that have been translated into Korean. They call for making adjustments to the size and style of the animation. Among the documents, there is also an editing sheet written in English with specifications for animation work with “Invincible” printed atop.
Deleting a Comment
I'm pretty confused about one thing.
When deleting your own comment, there always stays a placeholder in its place. I noticed this with my own and other lemmings posts.
So far so good, but i tried to reply to a deleted comment by another lemming and above the reply box was the full comment the other user deleted.
I mean the full content of the comment that was deleted.
Is this the normal behavior in Lemmy or is it Sync?
I mean, i want my deleted comments to disappear and not just hidden and for everyone available to read.
Please try it out and reply to my deleted comment in this post. Just above the reply textarea you'll see my deleted comment.
Asshole design
I must admit, i was somehow curious, but no!
