Not really. I adopted a stray kitten which cost 0$, a couple of vet visits set me back maybe 200$ for most of his life. Cat food isn’t expensive, car toys, and the environment was easy to supply and make it interesting. Later in life he got a tumor, and regular vet visits did cost a couple of thousand bucks and he eventually had to be put to sleep. But that was the most amazing cat, who gave happiness and love to 4 people, and a kitty friend.
Owning a pet responsibly is like owning a car: there is the expense of regular maintenance, and then every so often you have to drop a wad of money for a major repair.
Don’t get me wrong, my animals are worth it, but I think some first-time pet owners don’t realize this.
cat: ahhh killed a bird///secretly brought the corpse inside/// aaaaaaaahhhhhyah so badass***did you see what i did!!!***human: now i need to sanitize everything, thanks
We have one of those electric fly swatters and one of our cats will join any hunt for an insect, but only eat it if it has been electro-fried to a crisp.
Not universally great with any bright light for me.
Also. Black smeared on OLED (I use ASUS laptop) when moving windows - universal issue. And non-consistent black on LCD due to light bleed. So I haven’t prefer black black for a long time. But that’s me. Not sure about him though
Edit: Was not aware of the Torovoltos copypasta when I wrote the below.
That sounds more Greek than Russian.
"Lën Nikolaevitch Torpravi(tel)sky" would be a Russified calque of Torvalds' name, although that has at least a couple of issues with it. (1: The first word is literally "Linen". Same root, but no personal name developed from that root in Russian that I can see. 2: No-one has either surname.)
There’s an episode of Kitchen Nightmares (UK) where he fights with a French chef, each cursing in their own language. I imagine it would go something like that.
I actually like minimalist wallpapers. Drawings and photos will bother me over time as I start noticing odd details. So in this case, I would not feel the need to change it right away. But I do like variety, so I’d have to build a library of fifty minimalist wallpapers or so.
