They will definitely come after humans if they are hungry enough and their pack is large enough. It's around that season that they start getting a bit braver because they are hungry coming out of winter and it's breeding season. Usually they run after the first shot, but sometimes they don't notice you dropped one and they keep coming until the follow-up shots. It's not out of the ordinary to bag multiple coyotes in one spot.

In the late Winter/early spring they start getting a bit braver and start moving further into the cow pastures. That's when we have to cull the pack to keep them away from the cattle.

You've obviously never been surrounded by a pack of coyotes or hogs.
.223 is also an excellent caliber for that size game.

Initial reports are saying he was on the roof for several minutes. I'm sure more/better details will come in the following days.

As for the range, 125 yds is WELL within effective range for AR-15s and .223/5.56. Personally, mine is sighted for 220 yd so the ballistic markings are accurate out to 600 yds. There's a nearby 500 yd range that people frequently take their AR-15s to for longer range shooting. This is also considered "medium range" as far as rifles go.

The call screener is a godsend and it's the absolute most used feature I rely on. Many evenings I wake up for work and see that my phone stopped 5-10 spam calls that would have ruined my sleep.

Turns out he's two kobolds in a trench coat. His name depends on who's on top that day.

Humble Bundle is a big contributor to my unplayed games. There's usually only a few games in a bundle that I'm interested in at a good price, and the test I'll eventually get to... Maybe when I retire... If I get to retire...

Let the bed cool down all the way, ya little gremlin! If you absolutely can't wait, put the bed on a tile floor and your print should pop off on it's own pretty quick.

Plastic deformation point, elastic deformation point, yield point, ultimate strength, and failure point

Everything past the dotted line is the point where the material won't go back to its original shape.
Example: You can push on the hood of your car all you want, it'll flex, and go back to its original shape (elastic deformation); but stand on it, and it'll dent (plastic deformation).

You'd probably get an offer from PETA.

I would like to be able to select "Block Community" from the 3-dot menu on a post, rather than visiting said community before I can block it.

It would also be nice to be able to block some things without needing an account on that instance (mostly for using the everything-all view).

Just wanted to give some feedback. So far, liftoff is my favorite Lemmy app!
