Pray for my boi by OwlPaste in c/[email protected]

Spend time with your special boy, that's the best way to make them feel better, and hopefully not any time soon, but be sure to be there to send him over the rainbow bridge when it is his time.

A few years ago I had to say goodbye to my my first cat. It was a heartbreaking 2 weeks of very heavy ups and downs. On Christmas day, that he was sick and went into the final spiral of a terrible day and sometimes a little better, but he kept getting worse and worse generally, until the vet agreed that he wouldn't recover. He was put to sleep in my and wife's hands. Sometimes you have to help them to not suffer. And honestly we breathed a very heavy sigh of relief after knowing that he wouldn't be suffering any more and his final moments were with the humans he loved. Cats try their best not to show pain and discomfort so when they do, you know its really bad.

Given what's happening over there right now, people who are due reparations will see exactly 0 and all the money would be stolen.

Anyone tried Kopi Luwak coffee? by OwlPaste in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 14 points 5 days ago

I haven't tried myself, but suspect its more likely to be generally unethical tpwards the civets. From what i heard at least. Think battery hen farming.

But i have done no research beyond general unregulated market assumptions.

No dna tests were done, sounds like they should have been done to remove any allegations credibility if they are so adamantly claiming to not be at fault.

Thats not a cop, but a "vote support officer" who help you vote for the right candidate even if you already have one in mind 😄😉

He saw that the lady clearly did not need support making a decision and went to get some coffee.

After all this is just a prime example of a far more efficient democracy in action. Why waste time voting individually? Its clearly faster to vote at the same time.

Where to recycle treadmill? (lemmy.world)

Got a small walking treadmill, that now became a fire hazard, rhe motor is sparking, but replacing it seems not feasible as i cannot get a replacement part (the company stopped existing a while ago and doesn't seem like a main manufacturer). And it seems a slightly more permanent installation than not.

So looking to scrap it, but how to scrap it in London without a car? Council bulk pickup seems not to mention anything about fitness equipment and neither does the "not so local" recycling centre, tried calling it but the number goes nowhere. Its a fair trip on a taxi if i wanted to bring it to the centre and not a straightforward walk either.

So the question is, how to scrap it? Contacted a random "local" company that mentioned picking up gym equipment but they quoted £200, which is more than the bloody thing cost!

Going to email the council, but anything else i can try?

It gets worse to put it through google translate... google translation of the image paints a far less politically correct translation.

The yacht was owned by a Russian oligarch and was abandoned in Antigua in 2022 after sanctions were placed. In June 2023, the sanctions against the yacht were lifted and the boat was auctioned off... by OwlPaste in c/[email protected]

Could you not connect the yacht to the grid to run ac? Wouldn't that be cheaper?

Vegan influencer Zhanna Samsonova 'dies of starvation' after decade of only eating raw fruit and vegetables by OwlPaste in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 60 points 1 year ago

So really her diet being vegan is only because she ate 1 type of food for 7 years... Thats nothing to do with being vegan, it has everything to do with being silly.

But ofc British tabloids are always there just to cause controversy and not offer any real value to spread information.

[Solved] How to properly throw a 404 status in react router 6? (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Using react router and have a route definition:

  {
       path: '/',
       element: <Root pageTitle={pageTitle} />,
       errorElement: <ErrorPage setPageTitle={updatePageTitle} />,
       children: [
          ...
          {
             path: '*',
             element: <ErrorPage setPageTitle={updatePageTitle} />,
             loader: async () => {
                throw new Response('Not Found', { status: 404 });
             },
          },
       ],
    },

This shows me 404 page how I want but without the rest of the root element but also the http status is reported as 200. How do I properly throw it as a 404 and show it inside root element?

             loader: async () => {
                console.log('throwing a 404');
                throw new Response('Not Found', { status: 404 });
             },
          },
       ],
    },

This does show me the 404 page how I want, but http status is reported as 200. How do I properly throw it as a 404?

It seems not to trigger the loader (console log does not appear), or is there another method to throw a 404 and show a pretty page?
