This is literally an orphan crushing machine story. 38 dogs were heroically saved after...checks notes...they encountered disaster on a freaking FOX HUNT run by humans?!

Well, I've maintained my music collection from the olden days, and acquire new music as I discover I like it. I mostly have trash vaporwave tastes so I actually buy most of my music cheaply on bandcamp. My music collection isn't massive like some peoples, but it's a decent amount of GB. Mostly mp3, I'm not fancy enough for FLAC.

As for hosting the music, check out Navidrome. It's a great subsonic compatible service that can run on your OS of choice. I use Symfonium on Android to access the library. It supports playlist syncing, offline caching, etc. etc.

Don't worry, I'm sure we can come up with a way to explode the sun much sooner than that.

Unfortunately so. They are an Eastern US species that has been moving ever westward. And they are, in bird law terms, 'huge dicks'. They've been systematically kicking Spotted Owls out of their traditional roosting spots for about a decade now. Spotted Owls are pushovers, so they've been losing breeding ground. And barred owls are not just dicks to other birds, they don't like humans much either.

A tiny sculpture of a solitary grouse in a field. The grouse menaces with spikes. The overall composition is realistic. This work represents terror. This representation relates to a Greater-Sage Grouse attacking the colony on 6th of Decembary, 5210.

To be honest, would a spreadsheet not be a good use for this? There are FOSS asset trackers, but a simple .ods with a pictures column might serve you well. Are there additional features/conveniences you are looking for?

New greenhouse! (orbiting.observer)

Spring is approaching! I've just set up a level 1 greenhouse (plastic tier, I'll have to grind to upgrade to glass and metal....). Regardless, it's exciting! My seedlings are doing well, I can't wait for better weather!

What are you going to grow this year, Beehaw?

Ugh, I KNOW. All these people developing these amazing alternatives and I have to checks notes make an effort to degoogle myself for my own good. SIGH.

Boy, that cat sure has egg on it's face.

Well, these were golf courses.... The uplifting part IS that they stopped mowing it to let it be used for better purposes

Sorry, best we can do is make a new tier at the same price that only plays music, while we jack up the price of the new Premium Plan to account for 'rising market costs'!

So uh, what are the story beats of Squadron 42, exactly? And what kind of release date does it have? And say, what exactly, are the features it offers? Because it's been in development for 10 years now, and literally all I've ever heard is 'It'll be good, trust us!', and yet I've seen less gameplay from it then Star Marine.

A Gorgeous Sunflower! (orbiting.observer)

This is a beautiful Lemon Queen sunflower in my backyard. I've planted a whole row, but this one shot up and got an early start, the rest barely have their heads grown.

I'm growing these as part of The Great Sunflower Project, a citizen science effort to track pollinators in the United States. These were chosen for their wide appeal to pollinators, and true to form, there is always at least one sort of insect buddy visiting at any given moment!
