Devi, to asklemmy in How do you discourage a dog from biting while playing?

Most pups are taken away too young for this to happen. You want pups with their littermates at least up to 12 weeks and they start with pretty good bite inhibition. It's so different meeting pups treated properly rather than the byb pups taken at 8 weeks or sometimes even younger.

This is old fashioned dominance training, it's been proven not to work well and it damages the dog and your relationship with them.

Devi, to asklemmy in How effective in their activities do you imagine a coordinated colony of jellyfish could become?

Jellyfish are really weak, obviously they don't really have control over themselves but I think even if they did they'd be pretty hopeless. maybe they could travel where they want together?

Devi, to piracy in Is there a place with the complete Doctor Who collection (Classic, Modern, AND spin-offs)?

Everything doesn't exist. There are 97 episodes currently missing. I started watching from the first ep a while back, there was a fair few more missing at the time, but I pretty soon got lost with big chunks missing.

You can use iplayer through a VPN if that's useful to you.

Devi, to asklemmy in Non-religious Republicans of Lemmy, how do you reconcile your non-religious convictions with a party that bases a lot of its policies on religion?

Right wing in my country is also non religious, religion in politics is really frowned upon, to the point that one of our former PMs 'came out' as a Catholic after he left. Everyone is pretty pro LGB... less so on the T though, our conservatives are very anti-trans, our left party less so. I think our only anti abortionists are on the right? It's a rare viewpoint to say out loud though.

Sorry, I don't mean moderation by mods, I mean moderation by you, the things you choose to follow will change your experience, you can even block specific pages that bring in those comments.

It takes some time to cultivate your experience and learn the voices you want there but once you've done it you'll find the whole thing more positive.

That's a moderation problem, the joy of social media is that you can follow who you like so no toxic people should be on there.

Devi, to asklemmy in Do InvisibleFence brand controller units work with non-IF collars?

You can't bring yourself to tether him but electrocution is just fine?? That makes no sense.

Huskies are escape artists, they will get out of nearly anything eventually if left to their own devices, including an electric fence, you need to supervise them. A fence with a top that leans in is the best method.

I think the people who are genuinely made unhappy by it just don't really understand it. My friend told me once that she avoids it cause she sees everyone having a better life than her and gets depressed, but people just put good stuff on social media cause you don't want to be a bummer. It's just like going out for drinks, you don't sit down and go "I've really been struggling with stomach pain this week, my doctor is doing scans", no, too much, and that's what a facebook status is, just an opening statement read by potentially hundreds, so it's a light statement, a joke, something to share, that sort of thing.

Devi, to asklemmy in How do you work full-time and stay awake all shift?

I like to go for a walk at lunch, get some fresh air. If I've bought a lunch then I go to the park to eat while walking around, if I'm buying then I pick a slightly further away place.

It is worth seeing if you get used to it though, everyone struggles with a full time job to start with, especially if it's a starter job, low effort, repetitive, probably below you in the long term. As you get into a routine it gets better, adding responsibilities makes it better, even getting to know people so you have more chats makes it better.

There are better ways of containing your dog. Like an actual fence. Don't cause your dog pain for your own convenience. They don't even keep the dog in, a good run up, for example if they are being chased by something, they can be outside before they feel anything and then unable to return home.

Devi, to comicstrips in Water? What's that? [ADHDinos]

I was so confused how a 1 week old had ADHD then.

Don't forget to look after yourself. Babies are hard work.

Devi, to asklemmy in In which scenario would you last longer before being outed as a time traveller?

I think even then people are too skeptical. I could stand in Trafalgar square and start levitating and everyone will be like "Well done, clever trick!"

Devi, to asklemmy in In which scenario would you last longer before being outed as a time traveller?

So how about, you go to the future, look up a museum of your time, then just go and be yourself, like the people who do similar in museums now of the past.

Either way though, unless time travel has become widespread in the future, you wouldn't be outed, people would just straight think you're a bit odd. There's people now who straight up claim to be time travellers and we're just like, OK mate, suuuure.

Devi, to asklemmy in What kind of wearable device do you want? Assuming it will work and feel like you imagine it would

Some kind of chip or retina scanner that lets you into wherever you want with no hassle. I have keys for home, keys for my car, keys for my parents, a keycard for work, a code for the gym, there's a lot of shit to carry round just so I can go into the places that I'm allowed to go into.
