I lost my kitty last year. Was very close to her as well. I don't believe in ghosts but I think her ghost visited me in a dream shortly after she died. I'll miss her forever.

This is so funny

EDIT:

One recipe it dubbed “aromatic water mix” would create chlorine gas. The bot recommends the recipe as “the perfect nonalcoholic beverage to quench your thirst and refresh your senses”.

"Serve chilled and enjoy the refreshing fragrance,” it says, but does not note that inhaling chlorine gas can cause lung damage or death.

There's literally no way to know...

Should Elvis really be vilified for liking blues and rock music and playing it himself? How does that hurt anyone?

Like should we be pissed at Django Reihnhardt? Or R.A The Rugged Man? What about Japanese bagpipe players?

Not anyone. You have to be rich.

Pretty amazing story eh? Imagine what his winters were like, for so many years! Peculiar guy.

Debian has always worked pretty easily for me on ThinkPads. I guess it depends what you're trying to run it on.

I'm sorry, that's really hard. I lost my cat at a hard time last year when I was under a lot of stress and I cried quite a bit. Only thing I've cried about in years. He knows that you love him and that you're there for him.

Solid puns but this is actually a problem. Beehives are quite valuable, like $500 per hive or so to just straight up sell them, or obviously they can also be incorporated into an apiary for long-term production.

Theft of beehives is really not unheard of. Similar to how people steal cows and shit. Beekeepers will sometimes brand or otherwise mark their hives in an attempt to deter such thievery.

Personally I keep my beehives in huge steel cages, though that is primarily to protect them from bears.

If you're able to find time to do a 10 day vipassana retreat, I highly recommend it. It's free and they provide good food, run entirely by volunteers and donations and they have centers all over the world. I've done it a couple times and I know several other folks who have and it is a very compelling experience. I really think the technique they teach is a real cognitive skill, it's taught from a buddhist perspective but there is no requirement that you adhere to any particular spiritual beliefs.

I'm sure there are other forms of meditation that may or may not be helpful, this is just the one I've had positive experiences with.

I suppose it isn't linear but I suspect going from massive insane explosion in numbers to an 80% loss in a matter of weeks is pretty unusual. I think that growth was largely driven not by hype but by the automatic linking with other Zuckernedia properties.
