MoonMelon@lemmy.mlto Earth@hexbear.net•BREAKING: Trump Administration Orders Dismantling of the U.S. Forest ServiceEnglish35·6 days agoI live adjacent to national forest and the forest itself is pretty much the same on public and private land. When people around here clear their land they basically break even or have to pay to get rid of the trees because, shocker, saw mills for lumber aren’t setup to process oak/maple/hickory. So it’s either pulpwood, or truly prize specimens (which are rare) get sold to smaller processors as like “bespoke” trees for making furniture.
Our softwood stands come nowhere close to competing with Canada and the southern states in terms of tree size and number, so even if you do have loblolly (or whatever) it’s not economic to harvest. I mean, you make a little bit, but it’s laughable. It’s only worth it if you are going to clear the land anyway for development.
So cutting a national forest to compete with Canada wouldn’t even work in the most bare naked capitalist, Looten Plunder-ass sense.
Hiring an actual company is way too complex. If they wanted to fake this they would have some intern from Bob Jones University use his personal Gemini account. The fact it hasn’t been tied to some crypto-scam or hawking a collectible geegaw is pretty good evidence the admin isn’t involved.
MoonMelon@lemmy.mlto Are The Straights OK?@lemmy.blahaj.zone•Everything OK, Brazil?English41·7 days agoSeems pretty close to “Anus”. Better change your language quickly before it rewires your brain to be gay like some sort of gay “Arrival” alien.

At first I was confused because this is also Charlie Kirk’s nickname.
MoonMelon@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If not Github, where would you host your projects?English21·8 days agoIf you pick a FOSS license then your project is FOSS. The number of developers doesn’t matter.
I moved all my (meager bullshit) personal projects to Codeberg awhile ago. My stuff was already open source, but I did explicitly add some license files I neglected to add before just to make it clear. So far so good.
Before you archive your Github repos make sure to update them with one last commit explaining that the repo has moved to somewhere else (and potentially why). Once you lock the repo you can’t make changes. If you straight-up delete them then this isn’t an issue.
MoonMelon@lemmy.mlto news@hexbear.net•Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian publishes letter to the people of the United States of AmericaEnglish118·8 days agoI invite you to look beyond the machinery of misinformation—an integral part of this aggression—and instead speak with those who have visited Iran. Observe the many accomplished Iranian immigrants… Do these realities align with the distortions you are being told about Iran and its people?
Sorry is there an Adrian Zenz-like figure I can ask instead?
Seriously though I admire that, despite all we’ve done to them, he still responds with a dignity that we certainly don’t deserve. Of course we’re totally deaf to this as a people, but I respect the gesture.
George Orr is a draftsman with a mysterious ability. Some of his dreams are “effective” dreams that change reality. Orr’s effective dreams shift the entire universe, changing both the past and present and creating a new timeline.
My grandpa said he would jazz up his marbles by making a little oven out of a tin can. You would heat them up then plunge them into a bucket of water, and if you did it right they would crack up but not fall apart.
Former prosecutor, btw.
There’s no way they want to eliminate bot traffic, it would kill 2/3rds of their traffic instantly. So this just means, “bots that aren’t paying us.”

MoonMelon@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Oddly specific question, but has anyone here had or known of someone who had an epileptic pet? If so, could you help me understand some stuff?English4·20 days agoI had a dog who developed seizures. Low dose phenobarbital solved the issue thankfully. It was a little inconvenient because he required regular liver tests and also, phenobarbital being a controlled substance, I had to buy it at a regular pharmacy. But other than that it was fine, much better than the seizures. He had no issues until he died (years later) of unrelated problems stemming from old age.
MoonMelon@lemmy.mltoHacker News@lemmy.bestiver.se•Afroman found not liable in defamation case brought by Ohio cops who raided homeEnglish18·21 days agoI’ve actually been there. This is hilarious, but the serious side is that their county doesn’t have the money to spend on this kind of shit.
When people say the USA doesn’t have “real poverty” I always think of the two barefoot kids I saw carrying buckets to the creek. Or the partially collapsed rat’s nest/lean-to “cabin” that I was sure had been abandoned for decades, but then had smoke coming from the chimney in winter. Half the walls were plastic tarp and scrap metal. That’s Adams County.
The town of Portsmouth is right next door in Scioto County, and it was ground zero for the opioid epidemic in the USA. The first pill mill was right there. Last time I was there on any sheltered stretch of the river you could find addicts living in tents. The librarians carry Narcan.
But they raid Afroman’s house looking for weed.
I remember her ex-husband lost some political run (in part) because it came out that he took her to sex dungeons basically against her will.

They think what they see in daily life represents one cell of a giant organism, but its more like one atom.
