Perhaps she could start with her own.
This measure of 199 out of 200 is the US population equivalent of 1,650,000 people.
So, roughly in the ballpark of how many COVID has killed thus far (best estimate I could find was a little over 1.2 million). Even that didn’t really motivate people, unfortunately.
Unless the human mortality rate is much higher than COVID, this is just going to be the same thing all over again. Vaccines take time to prepare and even though this is a flu strain (which should give us a headstart), there doesn’t seem to be much happening with this yet (even the US has only just started getting organised with an order of 4.8 million doses, which is a drop in the ocean if their burgeoning outbreak amongst livestock manages to jump to humans). Waiting until we have rampant human-to-human transmission to order vaccines will be too late.
CLearly getting in the week’s supply of cuddles.
Really glad to hear that - sounds like you have found a good vet. They are worth their weight in gold!
So, basically nothing new in Windows 11 that I want and a whole lot of things I don’t.
The next step is doing what I did - get a second office chair. One for you, one for the cat.
I have actually encountered those sort of potential differences between ground planes. They can indeed wreak havoc under the right circumstances.
Indeed! Covers most of the instances where I would otherwise have to use find.
That’s great news! Glad to see he is healing and is more active - definitely indicates he’s feeling better.
Top right quadrant - where exactly depends on multiple factors.
I just gave up and got a new desk chair.
He knows he’s on a good wicket.
I am glad Blue has been treated. Hopefully his wounds will heal properly.
I agree with another comment suggesting you get the details of the dental surgery in writing. They should also be able to tell you the urgency of the situation. I’m sorry to hear that the costs are so high and wish I could assist more. My wife suggested asking if the vet clinic can do a payment plan.
My final thought was that if your “dad” really doesn’t care about the cat and is just using Blue to get attention (perhaps he hopes something will happen to him so he can go “Woe is me! Somebody killed my cat!”), then it might be best if you are able to rehome him. He seems like a lovely-natured cat and you clearly care about him a lot; if your “dad” is going to deliberately harm him (or allow him to be harmed), though, Blue may be safer in a new home. I hate suggesting lying, but since Blue has already been attacked you could arrange for him to get outside and “disappear” if you need a way to avoid your “dad” finding out you rehomed “his” cat.
Was about to say exactly that.
I can’t decide whether to laugh or cry.
Turns out one of the video-editing programs I use (VideoRedo) has shut down anyway (I think the owner passed away) and so I’ll need to look for an alternative anyway - I don’t think I can activate it on new machines anymore.
Because I haven’t yet updated from Windows 10 to 11 and had been putting it off. In the past week, though, I have seen a number of news articles highlighting issues I am going to have with Windows 11 and this particular article, indicating that they have been effectively leaving systems vulnerable simply because they have applications they don’t like installed is just not good enough. I’d understand it if they were saying “we can’t guarantee your OS stability with these apps” or “we can’t guarantee these apps will work anymore” if they were removing older API support, but this is ridiculous.
Well, I guess that’s one ISP everyone will want to avoid…
