Please be serious. I read the source that I posted; you're not being clever. Cats don't magically show up from nowhere. Our culture around cats enables and feeds the feral population. If we didn't keep cats as pets, and animal control treated them the same way they treat raccoons, then this problem would be dramatically reduced. Probably eliminated, but they might turn into an intractable urban pest.

! We estimate that free-ranging domestic cats kill 1.3–4.0 billion birds and 6.3–22.3 billion mammals annually. Un-owned cats, as opposed to owned pets, cause the majority of this mortality. Our findings suggest that free-ranging cats cause substantially greater wildlife mortality than previously thought and are likely the single greatest source of anthropogenic mortality for US birds and mammals. !<

Unless, of course, you're saying that we shouldn't stop one bad thing because we do other bad things.

We should rethink our attachments to miniature tigers.

True, ethical adoption is an option.

But then I always ran into the issue with how to feed the cute little monsters, which is what this drama is about.

Honestly, it's easier to not have a cat. Plus I'm allergic, so...

Cats are bad, generally.

They're killing machines that have a big impact on local wildlife.

A vegan that keeps cats isn't exactly approaching the situation from a purely vegan-based mentality.

Follow up question: If I reformat and write my drive with 0s, how reliable are the mechanisms to recover previously stored data on:

• A ssd

Asking as a hypothetical for a hypothetical friend.

24 hour ban. Because I told a terf to "go die" when she was advocating for post op trans women to be placed in men's prison.

Like, nah. I ain't gonna let someone play me like that.

Honestly, sorting algos are serious nerd shit. They're for suckers and losers. If it's not worth doing, insertion sort every day of the week. Compute is cheap. If it's actually important, then it's TimSort (it's never important).

Out of the hundreds of judges, over 97% were born on Earth.

All 97%, and all of the remaining 3%, have lived on or in the orbit of Earth for the past three consecutive years. Their financial records indicate that their income is primarily from terrestrial sources.

My understanding is that in a porn folder one of fictional well endowed characters was apparently supposed to be under aged. I also understand there were numerous horses.

Guy in the picture is an online politics streamer and has a running "joke" that he's a pedophile.

AFAIK he's not and there's no real evidence supporting it. He is, however, a horse botherer.

Back when the war in Ukraine started someone faked a news story about the "Karkiv Kid Finder", which got some attention. https://www.reuters.com/article/fact-check/cnn-did-not-tweet-a-story-about-the-kharkiv-kid-finder-idUSL2N2VB0UM/
