Bobbing for treats in the pool!

This is the first time Friday has willingly gone into a body of water. Marble on the other hand, loves it.

Ruby went on a creek exploring adventure
  • She looks so happy!

  • Friday “assisting” with tree removal

    Both of our dachshunds just love to climb on whatever they can find when they’re outside. Always gives me a good laugh turning around to find them in weird positions like this

    I knitted my first dog sweater!
  • So gorgeous!! I love long hairs so much

  • I love her so much
  • Always - she will actually cry at you if you don’t give her enough attention, and then it progresses into a yell if you don’t immediately give in😆

  • I love her so much
  • She’s my first dachshund, and first female dog, so she’s very special ❤️ and very naughty!

  • Pablo and Whiskey - New Best Friends!
  • Amazingly, no treats! Those two in particular are just all about their people, so they’ll give me their full attention when I start talking to them!! My two would never 😆

  • Pablo and Whiskey - New Best Friends!

    We’ve looked after them both individually before, but their recent stays happened at the same time. Pablo is absolutely obsessed with Whiskey and follows him everywhere!

    I knitted my first dog sweater!
  • Fits her perfectly!! Now I’ve gotta knit another one for her sister - she’s a bit of a different shape so hopefully I can work it out 😆

  • I knitted my first dog sweater!

    It took me the better part of a week, but I’m so proud it turned out well.

    Friday is enjoying the end of winter!
  • Sure am! Preparing for a sweltering summer again, but I’m sick of the cold. Houses over here are poorly insulated and it sucks in winter

  • Two very tired dachshunds

    A day out at the market tuckered then out big time!

    What is the naughtiest thing your dachshund has done?

    The naughtiest of my two would have to be Marble - she’s too smart for her own good! Despite being a very delicate and small mini (5kgs), she managed to knock over a pile of stuff we were intending to move to the spare room, squashed some things down until she could climb them, and got up on the kitchen counter top.

    Upon reaching the counter top, she immediately ate the last half of an apple tea cake and realised she couldn’t really get down. We found her chilling up there the next morning.

    A secondary highlight was breaking into the cupboard and gorging herself on her food bag. We got child locks for the cupboard and she chewed them off. We then got different ones to lock the double doors, and she would just weasel her way through the tiny gap under the door. She also chewed through the lid of a plastic tub we attempted to hide the food in. Now all of her biscuits are stored in a food vault in the laundry sink!

    Some other highlights of things she’s either eaten or tried to eat and been caught:

    • Half of all of the hot dog buns she managed to leap up and rip off the counter (the plastic was hanging over the edge). She nibbled every single bun in half.
    • Knocked over the bins (which weigh much more than her) and chewed up a lasagne container (we now have child locks on the bins)
    • A pile of tissues my partner left unattended while he was sick
    • An ENTIRE LEG of a pair of tights, and the top of a sock (this one resulted in a vet visit and surgery). She vomited most of it up but they couldn’t get all of it!
    • A dead possum I had to wrestle out of her mouth
    • A dead bird I had to wrestle out of her mouth
    • My newly planted potatoes in the garden

    Shes not an anxious dog, and happily spends most of the day asleep when we’re not out walking - but she has the food obsession of a Labrador. We’ve basically had to rearrange the house to keep absolutely everything away from her 😆 Shes an angel when you’re watching, but as soon as she thinks she can get away with it when you leave the room, she’ll give it a good go!

    How many dachshunds can you see?

    It’s winter here, so of course everyone must cram into my lap at once

    Except
  • Reminds me of when I was looking up an issue for Kali Linux and saw like 10 different reddit threads, all full of “don’t use Kali Linux unless you know how to use it”. Which was very helpful when I had to use it for my coursework.

    Side note: the most downvoted comment contained actual advice that fixed my problem.

  • Sat down on my friend's MacBook and broke it, offered to pay her the money for it but now she wants more because "she was upgrading anyway" so it's this or she will sue me in small claims court.
  • Probably for now tbh - as Lemmy gets more posts/content, I imagine it will swing over to best Lemmy updates. There’s a few communities/magazines re-created over here but not a ton of content to share just yet!

  • What are the vulnerabilities of going to an unsecure website?
  • Data is encrypted when you access a HTTPS site, but not with HTTP. This means a third party can view your connection to the site, and any information submitted by you.

    The connection to HTTP can be exploited, and malicious script can be injected to the response you (the user) receive from the server. This can include ads that drain computer resources (memory, CPU usage), or attempts to exploit vulnerabilities within your operating system/browser. As there is no authentication used with HTTP, there is no way for the user to know if the request/response has been changed.

    It is considered generally safe to just browse these sites without inputting sensitive data, but the above is something to be aware of.

  • Any other Discworld fans on here?
  • I’m pretty sure it was Reaper Man, and then the Hogfather.

    My dad was always a huge fan and after I started reading the books, The Hogfather movie became one of our regular Christmas watches.

  • Reddit keeps undeleting my account and posts. Is there anything I can do as an American Citizen?
  • Would breaking a ton of rules and getting the account banned remove all the content?
