Is it generally safe to walk through a field of cows?
  • As the UK’s deadliest animal, cows attack between three and four thousand people every year.

    An expert has revealed this figure may continue to rise. Between 2018 and 2022, more than 30 people were killed by cows, according to the UK Government’s Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

  • Unite union refuses to endorse Labour's election manifesto
  • I was referencing (a) Shaheen who liked a tweet saying "Every time you say something even mildly critical of Israel, you’re immediately assailed by scores of hysterical people who explain to you why you’re completely wrong, how you’re biased against Israel.

    “Moreover, you can’t easily ignore them because those are not just random people. They tend to be friends or people who move in the same circles as you.

    Those people are mobilised by professional organisations." . Now whether or not I agree with her viewpoint it would so clearly be twisted by the right wing media to hurl claims of antisemitism at the labour party again. When we as a party have worked so hard to get away from that smear you have to be more careful than that.

    And (b) Lloyd Russell-Moyle who has had a behavioural complaint made against him. Again, it does look to be timed in such a way as to punish Russell-Moyle whatever conclusion the NEC come to as his seat will have already gone to another MP, but equally, do we want a party that don't investigate such things, or try to sweep them under the carpet?

    I hadn't heard of Akehurst before your comment, and have to say I'm very disappointed that he's been selected, given both of the rows I've referenced I don't think he should have been. Thank you for bringing him to my attention.

  • Relevant idea for an election campaign
  • I like the idea, but it would have to work perfectly otherwise politicians would get very very upset when it didn't work correctly and it could never work perfectly enough live.

    We just need interlocutors who are willing to break in and say, "What you have just said has been proven to not be true, please try to be truthful to the electorate." every time they lie.

  • Unused Airtag slot

    I've been bought a nice wallet which has an airtag slot on the front of it. I use android and therefore don't want to put an airtag in to the slot, but also don't want to leave it empty.

    Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to put in there instead. Googling is pretty useless as I keep just getting reviews for other AirTag wallets.

    Who will finish p8 in Hungary
    manifold.markets Which driver will finish p8 in the 2023 Formula 1 Grand Prix.

    50% chance. Prediction market for which driver will complete the race in p8. Market will close 2 hours before the race so, use qualifying as a guide, place your bets and cross your fingers. Will resolve 24 hours after the race to properly account for any penalties that are given out post race.

    Hi all, I don't know how we feel about this here. It's a fake-money gambling site. Seems like a fun way to make predictions and back out thoughts up.

    Let me know if we think it should be taken down.

    I went with a predict the p8 finisher as predicting the winner is pretty simple a lot of the time at the minute, but with the mixed up midfield p8 is really tricky.

    Results so far: Bahrain - Bottas Saudi - Ocon Australia - Hulkenberg Baku - Russell Miami - Gasly Monaco - Sainz Spain - Ocon Canada - Ocon Austria - Hamilton Silverstone - Albon

    Hi there, sorry if this has been posted. Is it possible to change the options when sweeping away a card?

    ideally, is like too just have hide with a small left swipe as that is the action I mostly do.

    Can I use a Lemmy client as an RSS reader?

    Hi all,

    I've seen some people saying that you can use an RSS reader to view Lemmy communities, which made me wonder if I could do the same the other way around, and use my Lemmy app as an RSS reader?

    Bottas to coast home to victory on Sunday?

    Practice one results clearly very promising for the Swiss-based outfit. Their upgrades are clearly very effective giving Bottas a one and a half second gap back to Max Verstappen.
