Lol - ya, location makes a difference. I am now also curious what that is supposed to represent. I looked on their website but since I don’t have an account all I could see was mostly marketing and sales info. There was a FAQ about that feature with a youtube video that might explain the data points but the video opened with a 2.5 minute ad so I bailed… can’t believe there are 3rd party adds on a video from a company’s help section! The iOS app store lists the rut map/forecast as a feature but that’s it. The app does look pretty sweet though - I’ll have to tell my brother about it.

Ya, that one isn’t quite clearly labeled.  The rest of the charts and data points make sense.  Since it looks like this is a 5 day forecast I am guessing that the shaded green area is the historical average high/low temperatures for that date/time wherever this is in the world.  The forecast is saying that the temp is expected to be 49°F on 11/1 at 2:07pm which is 9°F lower than the historical average so there looks like there will be a lesser chance of spotting deer according to the top graph.  I guess?  It would help to see the source page for context/additional info.

I think a lot of people are confusing the “best by” or “sell by” etc. dates on foods (in the USA anyway) with an “expiration” date. The only foods in the US that actually have expiration dates are infant formula. NO foods expire exactly on some arbitrary date stamped on the packaging. The dates are listed to give consumers an idea of when they should think about consuming the product, many with a large amount of useable time after the date printed.
Don’t believe me? Here is the USDA’s FSIS explanation of their own regulations.

Specifically: Califia Farms Toasted Coconut - Coconut Almondmilk Blend. This is the closest I have found since I started watching my carbs/sugar intake 4 years ago.

More proof of ancient aliens! However, I never expected them to be mongoose. Or is that mongeese? Mongooses? Lets just go with alien otters.

What?!? Mexico has carbonite freezing technology? When did this happen?

They are just from the Roman equivalent of Hobby Lobby or the like. Just “quirky” home decor that was popular at the time. If they had the internet you would find these on ebay, etsy, facebook, pinterest… nothing to see here

So… do you mind telling the rest of us how to do this? I don't see a setting anywhere to change this behavior.

… really? Then you have your answer. If you just think typing like a child is fun then you are a child. Age in years doesn’t matter.

Mix is barely a shadow of StumbleUpon… The closest StumbleUpon “clone” I have found so far is cloudhiker.net. There are a few others that attempt the same thing but aren’t quite there yet. I also used StumbleUpon daily since inception until it was shut down. I really miss it.

Ok, I get it. Again, I wasn’t trying to bust your chops, just couldn’t figure out how the country you are living in is foreign. If the country puts barriers to entry like that ( you have been there for 6 years and they still consider you foreign? That doesn’t make sense to me) then I understand why you consider it foreign. Just curious, and you don’t have to answer this, is your wife a native there? Does not marring a native not give a person some standing?

[–] Daviedavo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Well, sure. I’m not trying to start an argument or trying to talk down to you or anything. I just mean that once you are living in a country then it’s no longer foreign? If you are there on vacation then sure. But if you live there then it is your country. Sorry if it sounds like I’m splitting hairs, but at some point the store down the street or your neighbors aren’t “foreign” any longer, but home. That’s all, just my thought process.
