Out of curiosity, does anyone know if this includes feral hogs, or just farms?

Why can I almost never load any images from science_memes? I can load every other community and instance. This happens on all platforms for me, even on different local networks a whole state away.

Edit: Example:

{"error":"unknown","message":"Request error: error sending request for url (http://pictrs:8080/image/original/f0df2dda-387d-42e9-b0d3-eae6db20e11c.jpeg): operation timed out"}

That's an error I had not seen before, but I also just encountered with this specific post. I will investigate, thanks.

Yet the Great Lakes remain barren. Possible source of hog repellent?

a bit ago, I had to go to Iowa for work, setting up a new branch office.

I had to keep my mental filter on because literally everywhere in Iowa smells like pig shit. Even the cities (which, to be fair, usually smell like shit.).

I wasn't there long enough to go nose blind, but it was a few months.

This map just... puts some numbers as to why... also makes me think Indiana probably smells like pig shit too... maybe not as much...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Lived in Indiana all my life and yeah, hog shit season is a thing

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I lived often-downwind from a pig farm growing up, and yeah, you never go nose blind to that smell. You tolerate it better, maybe, but it always stinks.

Covid did it for me.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well, the good part is you had some amazing bacon.

Gotta look on the bright side, right?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Oh, yeah, not at all.

My parents hated them. Long story short they blamed a livestock attack on our dogs getting out, it was the litigious 90s, and while they lost, it led to bad blood forever, stench aside, which they refused to do anything to mitigate.
