100% whatever trailcam fits your budget. They are robust against weather and other insults, crazy battery life, and some have remote monitoring. Don’t overthink this one.

Recovering academic now in public safety. You’ll find me kibitzing on brains (my academic expertise) to critical infrastructure and resilience (current worklife). Also hockey, games, music just because.

You have a lot of unattractive people too. The system needs everybody.
If anything, the attractive are in over supply and good nondescript character actors are in demand.
It’s an easy game not to play.
The pool of talent wanting to be in film is incredibly large - when Iived there it felt like half of LA was trying to make it in the entertainment business. Even the LA Police have casting leave written into their contracts in case they pick up a part.
So yes, the system is exploitative. But every person there is willingly playing that game using the cards they have available to them. Most of them lose.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is your life better or worse than your parents (I mean specifically your parents, *not* your parent's generation)? (Specify country)English
4·1 month agoGenX Canada. Better by every measure. I don’t have children so it has helped with financial stability to an amazing degree.
I can’t imagine the zoning bullshit that would have happened in that scenario. You can’t put a golf course anywhere on any patch of ground. That’s why there are course architects.
Not a big deal. They move the holes every week to keep the wear on the green even. There is a hand tool that cuts the hole and you drop the plug in the old one. The cup is just a plastic sleeve. It takes less than 10 minutes a hole.
Is this someone who doesn’t understand what happens on a golf course?
1965 clocking in. I want slippers and some soup.
Somebody saw the jackass movie.
We might have invented baseball too.
But we feel that way about curling, which we want to own, but was definitely invented in Scotland.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How come decades in the 1900s look fairly well differentiated but from like 2004 on feels like a giant run on?English
52·2 months agoYour impression of those decades is influenced by styling and design.
Photos of actual people on the street show a lost less variation between the 1950s, 60s, and 70s than you might imagine. But when stylists want to cue the era they dial up tropes that are instantly recognizable. Bobby sox and poodle skirts are instantly recognizable as 1950s style, but it probably applied to only a small geographical area in a few urban areas. Similarly the greaser stereotype was not widespread. But now you’d believe that half of high schools were wearing white t-shirts and leather jackets.
I lived through the punk scene. Half the people at the shows I went to look like they were part of a varsity basketball team. We had one friend who had spiked hair and people would cross the street to avoid him. The styling now would have you believe that most young people were decked out in eyeliner and bondage pants.
Chic or Patrician if you want to be fancy about it.

You can add my post 😀.
Wikipedia gets strange in some articles, and this is definitely one of them. St Brigid is a Catholic thing, not a wheel of the year feast. Why the conflation here? I don’t know.
There are a number of articles that talk about the “awakening” aspect of Imbolc, and it is associated with other hibernating animals peeking out of their dens to see what’s up. So the groundhog in the American context is a natural one.
You probably know this, but it’s what remains of the Celtic festival of Imbolc. It’s the first of the three spring festivals. Ostara you definitely know since it was coopted by the church along with the eggs and rabbit symbology.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How come residential power lines aren't buried underground still?English
12·2 months agoThe cost to reach them to diagnose and replace outweighs the decreased maintenance. Digging is really expensive.


I think they are suggesting it does not appear to be drawn by a human.
