    Unrelated, whoever re-unlocked this thread should be thrown in the Warzone Gulag with fists as their only weapon, while the opponent has literally any gun. Ideally AK-47 because cyka blyat.

    A lot of animals eat their children when they're scared / feel like they won't be able to raise the entire litter. Death is the most normal thing in the world.
     
    It's not pretty, but that's life.

    Has your rabbit ever had a litter before, or is this her first?
     
    You *can* control whether the rabbit mates or not. If this distresses you, and you can't take her doing it again, you need to get your rabbit spayed by a Vet.

    Moral of the story is you should do more research about what you own, especially if you say you raised rabbits for 5 years now. 
    This is something you should have known. 
     
    Literally one of the first results on Google :  https://www.rabbitcaretips.com/how-to-stop-a-rabbit-from-eating-her-babies/
     
    It's a long article with plenty of tips, not gonna paste it here.  
    All I'm gonna say is that this should have been the first thing to read after seeing the first baby rabbit being eaten.

    Nicehash, a cryptocurrency mining service for small users, is Petitioning against Microsoft for the blocking of mining software on Windows Defender. They're also asking Microsoft to target the -other- software that's on illegitimate miners, rather than the mining algorithm itself.
     
    They include 10 Appendixes which go into detail about their stance, but no external references to academic work or news.
     
    My thoughts
    Microsoft has always blocked mining software of ANY kind as malign. Nicehash argues that this is anti-consumer as it prevents consumers from mining, compared to big factories that have their own setup and probably use Linux.
     
    I see some good points and some bad points.
    Reduces trust in Windows Defender and antivirus software. I think this is a fair point if you're told by a lot of people that it's randomly blocking programs that should be legitimate, and people's imaginations would run wild if they're told a Microsoft is specifically blocking one type of legitimate software. There will be people on the side of Microsoft though. Many points related to decentralization and making mining harder for personal users compared to huge mining farms. I personally care about this because I mine on my gaming GPU on the side, and I want to be able to continue doing so. That said, outside of people who mine, who cares? Not a lot of people, so there's a chance this doesn't get much traction at all outside techy communities. Damages the reputation of blockchain. This one's a weird one. Are they arguing that Windows Defender is defaming mining software by stating that it's malicious and can harm your computer? I'm not a legal expert but I don't know that this is the right thing to argue. Contributes to damaging the environment Now if you can't see the irony in this one, allow me to point it out. They argue that small home mining rigs tend to use less power and can more easily obtain more energy from sustainable sources [citation needed]. So all in all, I do think it's better if Antivirus Software doesn't block legitimate software of any kind. I don't think this is something worth crying wolf about.
     
    Home users that are annoyed by Microsoft should look at alternatives, they do exist. I'm hoping that a Linux distro that can put a dent in the behemoth that is Windows at some point comes along.

    The first game is only 30min (when playing normally, i.e. not speedrunning) if you completely missed the 2nd part of it which is the good stuff 😛

    Hey everyone!
     
    Today I'm tapping into the wisdom of you web developers out there.
     
    Basically, I installed a plugin for easy contact forms and personalized it.
     

     
    I know the style looks terrible, don't worry about it xD
     
    The problem I have is when I submit, I can set the email to send to in the configuration page, but it's sending to spam. Here's the configuration and an example.
     

     

     
    The plugin I'm using is this one
    https://contactform7.com/
     
    Any ideas why this might be the case?

    I think most of the issues listed can be avoided just by adding nicehash folder to the exception list
    But it does add a bit of sketch to it if you have to add it to exception list to begin with
     
    If I were Microsoft, I wouldn't wanna take responsibility for softwares that are written by anonymous developers
    Many miners developers stays anonymous for obvious reasons, like Phoenix
