One dancing wolf, just for you! ❤️

I've wanted to do this dance for such a long time! It sure was tricky getting these big bappers to move fast enough, and doing footwork on carpet, but we made it work!

Side note... Masto wouldn't accept my video directly? :C

I guess 155MB is too big?

Thumper ➡️ LVFC mastodon (AP)
my instance is default and limited to 50mb. It's not obvious to me how to change it, but it may be a thing that is configurable to some degree.

@thumper The default for 4.2 is 99MB, up from 40MB before, though we'd have to ask Scatterplot to see if it's correct here. https://github.com/mastodon/documentation/commit/9340cb6a9f6aa4dc7685a8b19af20bc5c9d5f285

A 40 second long video will be re-encoded to around 7MB. This is plenty for a short clip with mostly static camera, though might be insufficient for high motion videos such as recordings from video games. https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/posting/#media

Thumper ➡️ LVFC mastodon (AP)
@kakurady thank you, mine still stops me at 50 so I probably need to change a config setting somewhere.
@kakurady @thumper this is how I resize my videos for mastodon, it seems to work well- https://woof.group/@PupShadowNH/110011616513285154
Thumper ➡️ LVFC mastodon (AP)
@PupShadowNH @kakurady thank you! I don't suppose you know where the server side admin setting is to make use of the new 99Mb limit instead of 40? I checked a few config files but haven't found it or any useful articles online.
@thumper I am not sure on that one! I've somehow managed to avoid setting up my own mastodon instance so far, so my experience with mastodon is client side only at the moment 😅
@thumper Honestly, I don't even have any idea increasing the post length on my own instance.

It's made me grumpy. I'm tired of living in a world where everyone is constantly out to trick, wheedle and dark-pattern stuff out of you on the sly.

Just charge a fair price for good work for smeg's sake. Piss off with the trickery, fucks sake. 🦬

Kinda' crazy to think about.

In about five billion years, when the world dies by fire as the Sun in it's death throws engulfs the Earth, only half of the radioactive material in Chernobyl's damaged reactor 4 will have decayed.

CW: dementia

It's only when you see someone you've known your whole life gradually losing the ability to operate a knife and fork, and watch them while they try, that you realise how much of a technical skill it is to use cutlery. It does require coordination and fine motor control, but I suppose most people learn it at such an early age they don't realise how much work it took. #dementia

“President Carter was four decades ahead of his time.  He championed the single largest conservation effort in history, protecting millions of acres of Alaskan lands to be experienced as national parks, monuments, wilderness areas and wildlife refuges.

He put solar panels on the White House and climate change on the agenda. Had the nation, and the world, listened to him then, the future would be far brighter now.”

I just fiiiiinally got round to sending an email to a potential transit supplier with cabinets right next to mine (so the cabling might be easier/cheaper than otherwise). Less than 8 weeks to go until my current main transit supplier turns my port off because they are getting out of the transit business. I am spectacularly bad at actually contacting people I've never talked to before.

Looking at a letter that starts "TO ALL CREDITORS", "Dear Sirs".

Sirs, right.

Honestly, I don't feel like having a gender today. Is that okay? 😉

It’s the last #FursuitFriday of 2024. Good riddance. While a lot of good changes have happened and I did things n went to places I had never been to before, it’s been a really rough road to get here and this summer was a heavy low point in my life. I still have a lot of healing to do. Hopefully 2025 goes better? 🤷

Actually it's rain now, I think. Snow will probably be gone well before morning.

Living in London, I rarely got to see snow. Now that I'm out here in the countryside I suspect it's going to be a much more more common sight.

the funniest thing I've seen all morning is when I typed "linguistic prescriptivists are..." my spellcheck highlighted "prescriptivists" as not-a-word.

THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!

So this happened to me today while on a Xmas eve Bushwalk.

I was 6km into a walk and decided to sit down on a rock at the crest of a hill and have a coffee while looking over the valley below, and enjoying the late afternoon sun, soon a Kangaroo comes bounding up from below, getting closer and closer, I'm thinking shit he hasn't seen me. He was about 3 meters away when he did and he craps himself, then launched at me feet first and knocked me backwards, next thing I know he was on top of me kicking and scratching. I threw him off and rolled to get away then he kicked me in the back and sent me flying, I grabbed my daypack and got it between us, which to be honest just pissed him off and he promptly ripped it out of my grasp. I managed to get to a tree a few metres away, while he’s kicking away, then we spent the next 5 minutes with him chasing me around it and me trying to keep it between us, all while he was making a cross between a growl and bark noise while doing the skippy tongue clicking. A couple of times he bounded away and I thought it was over only for him to stop and I swear I could see him thinking “nah stuff that” and he would come hurtling back for another crack at me, eventually he left with a few stops and glances back as if to say “you wants some more mate?”
Here’s the funny bit, when he was on top of me he smashed my clip belt and I was wearing my hiking pants that had lost it’s top button, but I hadn’t got around to sewing it back on, so as I'm running round the tree my pants kept falling down around my ankles and every time I tried to pull them up it gave him an opening to launch another attack, all while the Benny Hill tune was running through my head. All I could think was if he kills me how will this be explained to my family.
Anyway I survived, some long scratches on arms, legs and back, one scratch close to my left eye and three huge bruises on my chest, side and back in the shape of a kangaroos footpad. No broken bones, slight concussion and a 2km hike/limp back to car armed with a big stick, luckily I made it before the adrenaline wore off and the aches and pains showed up, I admit it was terrifying and Those claws are quite scary up close. I have a new found respect and wariness for them now.
Getting pantsed by a kangaroo was not on my Xmas list.
Still not as bad as the year I got shingles for Xmas. 😂

What a story! I also went for a Christmas eve walk. I chanced upon a dingo that was a little too bold. I scared it off with a rock raised in my arm. The dingo ran, but only out of a stones throw's distance, whence he stopped, turned and watched me. It trailed me a little way, so I decided to bluff it out and walked aggressively toward it with my arm raised, rock in hand. Once again it bolted, but only so far. Rinse and repeat three times before it finally gave up and left me alone.
Sheeezus! Is being attacked by large mammals an Aussie Xmas Eve tradition?
Never heard of it before, but maybe it is starting? To be clear I was unharmed, I'm just not sure if I was in any real danger or not.
It’s Xmas day here in Oz and just to follow up on yesterdays Man Vs Roo.
Sore today but not too bad, a few more aches came out overnight, I hadn’t realised I rolled my ankle as well. Wondering if I can use it as an excuse to get out of visiting the in-laws today 😁
Just to add to any questions.
My fault entirely, I should have made it aware of my presence earlier and it would most likely have gone around me. I see and walk through mobs of kangaroos on most walks in the hills around Melbourne and have never had an issues apart from being stared at, which can be disconcerting. I think I was to relaxed around them as when I was a kid we raised a Joey for 3 months and was one of our most fun orphans.
It was an eastern grey and luckily it was only a teenage male so stood about 3 feet, but when it was up on its tail kicking it was closer to 5. If it was one of the big males in full rut I think it would have slaughtered me.
YES the Benny Hill theme was going through my head at the time (just how my mind works)
Not sure what my reaction will be next time I encounter some, but pretty sure I’ll be right.
To all the foreign tourists who have ever been attacked by one, my apologies for all the times I have said you would have to be an idiot for that to happen 🥺
If they ever put that scene in a movie or comedy show about Australian , nobody would believe it.
I’ll try and respond to all the comments but might take some time.
Anyway, Merry Christmas to you all. 🎄🦘

Money should be fissile, that way anyone hoarding wealth will be in for a bad time

Pippin friendica
Hmm, yes, I like the idea of money having an intrinsic critical quantity, more than which it'll become more harmful than useful.

Pique wakes up in the morning directly to the tree, and as the little bunny unwraps his gift, he discovers a shiny new drum set. With no hesitation, Pique starts banging away, creating a chaotic symphony of noise. His dad, with a tender smile and his ears discreetly covered, watches his son, happy to see him happy, worried for the upcoming loud days.

Gift from Rabid Rabbit to Pique.

Merry Christmas!!

Despite the urge, remember the following are all none of your business to ask about:

Their size, weight, or any other body changes
When they’re going to get a partner
When they’re getting married
When they’re having a baby
Why they’re not drinking

Unless they’ve opened up to you about it first.

Everyone claims there's no pressure to drink, but still keep asking that question.
