Solid answer to a different question 😉

Dawn Soap, Hot Water, and on anything with cracks that I feel like the sponge won’t reach well, I add salt or sugar as a “scrub”! Never had an issue ❤️

Note that I prepare raw food (including chicken) for one of my dogs.

Except that that is a back pedal on their part and their FAQ plainly says they actually have no way of tracking what is a new install versus a re-install; which is why they decided to count all installs to begin with.

Clearly without consulting anyone with a modicum of common sense.

It’s also possible its a move to deliberately piss of the customer base, so they can “back off” and implement a solution that still satisfies them, but looks like they let the “customer” (mostly) win.

For example: “We will charge $.20 for over 200K installs!” Backpedal: “We will charge $.05 for only the initial install after 500K installs!”

Pretty sure there are many documented instances of exactly this occurring, especially in the game dev industry unfortunately. (The goal was never the first offer, but rather to overshadow the real goal.)

It is exactly what Unity means; they have doubled down on the clarifications. The precise point is to charge the developer for any install a user makes once they earn a (paltry) $200K.

It’s not rocket science to see that this is a very bad, very abusive idea and its targeted to hurt indie developers the most (as larger studios like EA would be on the enterprise plan and therefore on the hook for only 1/20th of the same usage).

Some simple math says that you would have to uninstall and reinstall a $5 game 20 times to completely nullify the earnings from your purchase.

It’s surprisingly easy to rack up installs; between multiple devices, uninstalls for bug fixing / addressing, the OS breaking it, modded installs having to be reset, making space for other games, refreshing a device… and so on. And that’s not even accounting for bad actors actively trying to damage a company.

From the Canine Competition universe… confirming fortune spent on doggos. I definitely did not spend 4 figures on entries fees for 3 dogs in a multitude of sports in one weekend… ~

Thank you! ❤️ I don’t have the means to host my own instance, but once I do a bit more research and understand Lemmy better, I will definitely be making some pet related communities ❤️

Ha… I use Voyager and had -no clue- that Lemmy supported either one of these features (previously wef wef). Maybe turn it off in your client, or use Voyager?

None! I haven’t actually watched it 😅 It does amuse me that it exists, but I spend waaaaay too much time training dogs to actually watch a movie about it.

American here that does long haul drives rather frequently for dog shows…

When I give a time, it’s without breaks. “10 hours to the Fairgrounds” - 10 hours of straight driving with no problems.

I tell folks new to my methodology to anticipate around an hour of variance for every twelve hours, as I typically must stop 2x for gas at least. (My tank holds 400 miles / 12 gallons, and I try not to let it drop below 50 / 1.5 gallons.)

For the dog shows, I’ve got a varying number of dogs with me (8 was my max, 2-4 pretty common) and pottying them takes forever.

Edit for Clarification: I’m content to drive around 14-16 hours straight without stopping to rest. If the trip is longer than that, I do have to pull over to nap.
