Love that you got to experience the personality of a named and much loved four legged farm creature. Those are really adorable. Although, poor things, with those nasty flies!
People used to smile patronizingly at me (the less subtle actually laughed in my face and contradicted me) when I explained that each of my goats had a name and answered to it. I can see how that sounds outrageous when you are talking about 60 apparently identical and stubborn goats. Buuuuut....they proved the skeptics wrong every time. And I always got a kick out of the jaw dropping stuttering when I would point, call and that goat would come trotting over. Or - these ARE goats we're talking about - get a head toss, indignant bleat NO (in goat lingo) and then Miss Goat sauntering in the opposite direction. However it still showed that they answer to their name!
Craig phoned me this morning to drop the news that there's been a hard fork. I immediately said I didn't need a fork as I was using a spoon to stir my coffee. He said "no hive...and to ask Denise" 😎 so...this is me, ignorant South African, living in the desert. What does he mean?
They are my daughters. She keeps them in with the horses. :) They are really fun and we have had them since the summer. The flies! Yes.
People do laugh, don't they? It is funny to watch them as they watch us calling them. Sassy little goats!
The hardfork (or hard fork) isn't anything to worry about. They had a bigger one two weeks ago and there were all sorts of little issues like comments not showing up and I wasn't able to post.. for a day or so.
Basically it is a major code change that modifies how the server works, such as upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10. In a nutshell, that is it. So, no worries. I am not sure I have even seen a glitch.
I think this is the 25th (don't quote me on numbers) that has happened since we forked over to Hive from Steemit. Text Craig and tell him he can chill. He missed the big one! :)
Oh, my friend... you are anything but ignorant. ❤️
Thank you for the explanation. And one in layman terms. The jargon and terminology baffles my brain.
Oh your daughter has good taste in cattle! What is her plan for them? We just brought home a jersey cow. Her name is Gretchen and we got her from our friends who are having a grazing crisis. She's totally disgusted with them - he is with his chickens and cows the way I am with my goats. We offloaded her and she promptly greeted our other cows, then turned and followed me out the gate! My only problem is that Gretchen is just another girl for me to milk.....
