Because we have enough chickens

Sentient is a bit of a stretch for chickens.

To answer the rest of it, there are meat birds and egg layers. Meat birds grow fast and are ready to harvest in a few months. Egg layers produce more and larger eggs. We have a variety of egg layers, 9 hens and a rooster. We get between 5 and 8 eggs a day which is plenty for us.

The cost of owning chickens is a really flexible number. My wife wanted to try and loved it so we have put more money in. Our first setup was a small coop for 3 birds for around $200, the birds were cheap enough not to matter in the equation, another $100 or so in food and water things, feed, grit, calcium, etc…

She liked it so we upgraded to a $1000 coop and more birds. Not calculating the monthly payments on the coop we probably spend $20-30 a month on maintenance (feed, grit, shell, straw)

One reason those cooked rotisserie chickens are so cheap is because they are used to get people in the store to buy other things. So the store takes a hit on them but they end up making money from other stuff that may not have sold.

Also, scaling up a chicken farm, especially one focused on either eggs or meat, reduces the cost per animal by a lot. If you’re buying a single chick to raise, it’s gonna be 3 to 50 dollars depending on breed. If you’re buying 30,000 they are gonna be a hell of a lot cheaper.

I have seen mice eat each other alive. I’m 100% sure they would build a mousetrap

Yeah, that was the moment it changed from a social media platform to an advertising platform.

When social media started it focuses on friends. You add someone as a friend and you could see what they were up to.

Then Facebook came along and made it competitive, it became less about seeing what friends were doing and more about posting things that people liked.

As Facebook grew, it changed. One day you didn’t see the stuff your friends posted unless you constantly interacted with their posts or a lot of other people did.

It’s gotten worse and worse since then. They have added more and more ads and posts from people and pages you might know that you no longer see stuff from people you do know.

It’s absolutely worthless.

Here is how it has gone down for a few companies I have visibillity on:

• Investors with enough stock to have influence demand the company use AI and cut staff
• remaining ataff struggles to fit AI into their now bloated workload
• quality slips and stumbles. a few employees are able to make the transition and cause huge AI bills while attempting to cover the workload
• everyone gets upset and nothing gets done well

It looks like investors who have also invested in AI are trying to push its use and it is stumbling all over the place. If a company cant adapt it is basically stripped for parts and sold off to companies that are handling it better.

It really depends on how you find out.

From a meme: awesome

While biting into what you thought was a jelly doughnut: Not as awesome

Yeah, I don’t love every song but I’m perfectly happy to let their albums play through without feeling like skipping anything.

They keep putting out bangers, I love this album

This happens when you burn out your fans with constant releases.

Saving this for later, thank you

Back then most of the synths came from Japan, if not whole product than the chips and other internals.

Same, I sunk so much time in that game and the music was a huge part of it. It’s great to hear the original synth tracks.

Sounds like exactly what it does. And you’re treating it right, if they don’t answer it sends what you said to voicemail.

I’ve been using call screening in iOS and it’s stopped pretty much all unwanted calls. Automated systems do not know how to handle it yet and they waste their time because the call is “answered” and sent to whatever agent they use.

Because of the nazis

The biggest loophole they use is taking out loans and using stock as collateral. Stock is supposed to be unrealized so if it is used as part of ANY transaction it should instantly become taxable.
