This flock of ducks runs a vineyard!

Army of pest-munching ducks keep South African vineyard blooming

Flocks of white, black and brown ducks hunt for snails and bugs as they patrol the grapevines at a vineyard in South Africa's winemaking town of Stellenbosch, helping the owners steer clear of pesticides and synthetic fertilisers.

Gates made the Gates Foundation, Allen did Allen Institute, Zuckerberg started CZI, the Google guys funded big new things under Alphabet, even Bezos is in the game with 10 Billion for Climate work.
Elon Musk set fire to 44 Billion dollars to make friends with somebody behind the handle “catturd” and give Kanye West a chance to post swastikas.

@RollingStone So like, Garland's not really an effective AG, more of a crypto partisan from the federalist society.

Merrick Garland is not a failure for appointing a Special Counsel today to investigate Pres Biden. Garland is a FAILURE because it is now 2 years and six days since Jan 6 and Donald Trump has not faced even one criminal charge!!!

Somehow the plan to let our CEO set hundreds of billions of dollars on fire in order to get in good with… [checks notes] “catturd” has gone horribly wrong.

So this type of argument comes up a lot. Let's take Putin at his word of what it means for his success, because his success was not defined solely in terms of Ukraine. It was defined in terms of partitioning the global economy and setting up a major new economic group including China and railing against the US/EU as part of the "golden billion" https://infosec.exchange/@frontier/109564875467342115

@[email protected] if we didn’t give any assistance to Ukraine the war would have been over much sooner, likely this spring. In fact isn’t the strategy here to bleed the Russians out? To turn it into a war of attrition for them?

@acosta I think Josh Barro is right about this, really. It should be a chance for news managers to pull journalists off Twitter. There’s no reason to make efforts to support musks authoritarian hobby horse, and it fed some of the community’s worst instincts. https://www.joshbarro.com/p/dear-newsroom-leaders-nows-your-chance

@Popehat was the US government not impressed with his playing video games while giving interviews? I don’t understand.
