(Assuming I got the reference lol)

I don’t. The “newest” console I have is XB 360 lol.

The Deluxe edition is now safely in my Steam library, lol, so I’m all set for when I eventually upgrade.

Nice!

I’m not GPU-equipped enough to play it, but it’s on sale 70% off until 7/11. Gonna go ahead and snag that and worry about being able to actually run it later (which is how the admiral populates his Steam library 😆)

I know the cat is the focus of the post, lol, but what game is that?

Just updated again. Looks like she did come back for him. At least, I’m assuming she did. They normally don’t wander off from where their mom stashes them.

Not yet.

Got about 30 minutes of shade left in that spot, and about an hour before I have to let the dogs out. I’m afraid I may have to move him.

Luckily, I think it’s the same one that I usually see in the back yard, so I can prob move him there without momma having too much trouble finding him. Gonna wear gloves and try to minimize the amount of my scent that may get transferred.

Took all of my restraint not to boop it. lol.

Pretty dog, WAYYYYY too many hashtags.

True for dogs, too. (sigh)

Lol, yep. She was 8 at the time, so I was looking at middle-aged dogs that I thought would be a better fit for her, energy-wise. Nope. She hated them all. So we ended up getting a 4 month old Jack Russell mix which is the opposite of what I thought she’d want. They’ve been besties since.

They’ll beat the crap out of each other and then curl up like this and take a nap. Brown one is 9, black one is 1.

Fun fact: The old dog picked the new one. She didn’t like any of the dogs I chose, so I walked her through the shelter until she picked that one. Another fun fact: I did not want a puppy, but Daisy did. So, we got a puppy.

I don’t have a cat now, but when I did, that was the face right before a roll of paper towels became confetti all over the living room.

I have never been to Toronto, but your description of it makes me think of Pawnee.

There’s always a loophole.

If any Russians living abroad have anything they want to get off their chest, lemme know, and I’ll besmirch the daylights out of Russia for you. I’ll have to do it in English or Spanish though since all I know in Russian is that “D” looks like New Hampshire with legs.

We’re working with the admins to come up with a bot to automate it.

When I was still developing Tesseract UI (RIP), I incorporated MBFC lookups directly in the client and put credibility badges on posts. I didn’t see that MFBC had a public or private API, but they do export a MIT licensed subset of their data in JSON format in their official browser extension. I was able to bundle that dataset into Tesseract to perform lookups locally.

If the admins want any help with the bot tool and working with the MBFC data, I’m happy to assist.

I was told to add my voice here, so here’s my take on Rule 3:

Please keep the MFBC rule. Without that, this sub would be just a repackaged WorldNews@lemmy[dot]ml which is a cesspool where terrible sources and propaganda run crazy. I’ve admin-blocked that community on my instance months ago because of the poor sourcing.

You can’t “both sides” the truth, and sources that habitually lie, distort the truth, or inject heavy bias should not be given a platform. There are plenty of left-, center, and right-biased sources that are credible, so all angles are possible while maintaining standards for the credibility of submissions. If a particular story is only covered by news outlets that are deemed non credible, there’s probably a reason for that.

Even allowing case-by-case submissions from non-credible sources (e.g. they just repackage an AP article) is dangerous as it gives the otherwise non-credible source undeserved legitimacy and only serves to muddy the waters for the other stuff they put out. It also sets a precedent: “Well, you allowed this story from Jim Bob’s Reel Truth News so why not this one?”

Edit: This may be the wrong post? I can’t find the post Little Cow linked to me, but they said it was pinned (lemmy.world/post/10102462).

I agree that this article may be fine, but overall they’re not a credible source. Allowing case-by-case for individual articles from a generally non-credible source only serves to legitimize them and muddy the water for the other bunk they put out.

I strongly feel that the post should have remained removed and the poster encouraged to re-submit the article from a credible source.
