As a dog person I see cats as being apathetic towards their owners. Oh you arrived from work or a 3 month holiday, well I do not really care.

Where my dogs in my mind, which is based entirely on my feelings, will take a bullet for me if they could.

I have seen one, and it was on a school trip in 2004 in Durban where they brought one of the caught great White Sharks and dissected it in front of us kids for "educational" purposes, basically showing us what it has in its stomach, how it has infinite teeth. They use these "educational" dissections as justification for draglines and nets unfortunately.

I actually wrote an email to the new Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment: Dr Dion George, giving my two cents like how draglines and nets are outdated and dangerous to the shark population, how much better methods now exist. I only received an email saying they noted my concern. At least there are organisations really trying to save not only the great White shark but many other marine animals

Sadly through studies, like the one that ended in 2019, we have lost about 90% of our population then. The issue still is the use of draglines along the coast and nets which kill a large number of Sharks like in KZN, and the orcas also chase away some of our white Sharks.

Go look up yourself to see how our population has been decimated

It's sad that we don't have great White Sharks anymore

I love Mint 22 so far, it really has matured where my home computer is running Mint is more stable than my work computer running Windows 11, luckily my company uses CrowdStrike so nothing to worry there.

But really I now recommend Mint to my non tech savvy friends and family, as a person who uses Linux should! But joking aside took my sister's old laptop running Windows 7, slapped a SSD and upped the ram to 8 GB into it with Mint and she has been happy

This is so cool if they make it easier to convert. It was a huge project at our mine to convert one of our Komatsu trucks to Hydrogen. Funny thing is the diesel engine originally only powered a generator that then powered the electric motors so they swapped in a hydrogen fuel cell where the diesel engine was. I wonder how the batteries will be changed since the diesel and hydrogen needs like 15-25 minutes to fill up for the day.

I understand that Epic funded their project to be an Epic exclusive, but was that a financially sound decision excluding the major market place. Could they not have worked in like a two year or three year exclusive period

Yeah I feel there is a weird history between steam and remedy media. Like I remember when you could one day buy Alan Wake like really cheap since it was being taken off steam. Then the Epic deal making Alan Wake 2 exclusive basically meant they excluded a lot of customers immediately on steam.

Even if I know it could end badly, I actually still believe this is the best short term plan, we already geoengineered the atmosphere warmer, might as well quickly cool it down back to where it was. But as long as this is seen as a bandaid, not the cure

Yeah pretty shitty going after the wife, but they are lawyers and have to best represent their clients, still it is heartbreaking hearing these questions, but if they are not asked the perpetrators could later claim because these questions weren't asked they have ground for appeal or maybe a mistrial. I am not a lawyer nor have any knowledge of the French judicial system. But I am glad she is having this trial in the open, it really lets the public see how such a horrific crime is dealt with in the court, the uncomfortable questions, the belief that if they have her husband's consent it is fine. Fuck and her husband is throwing all of these fucks, including his fucked-up self, with him underneath the bus, like taking them all down with him.

No fucking way this was better than Hereditary. The Babadook is iconic, but if I think right now what I can remember after all these years, little remains. Yet with Hereditary there is so much that stays with me.
