My 4.8kg cat is very fractious for vet visits, so the vet originally suggested 100mg gabapentin 2 hours before his appointment. Since that wasn't enough to relax him adequately, for his next visit, they increased the dosage to 150mg, which still didn't do the trick. Next, they suggested adding a dose the night before, but it wasn't until we got to 200mg gabapentin the night before, plus another 200mg the morning of, that he finally mellowed out juuuust enough that they could examine him.

My friend's birthdate includes both "14" and "88". I also remember being much younger and the '88 kids were all about "double infinity", usually stacked, and some even got it tattooed.

1. It should be opt-in, not opt-out.
2. Once it's there, I don't trust that it's not still secretly collecting my data, or will be silently reenabled by updates or changes to the ToS.

Currently unemployed, so I can't exactly remember, but I used to launch a call with just myself. By default, that will change your status to "in a call", but I believe you can override it and set it to available. Alternatively, a mouse jiggler is around $20.

I could definitely see that! Was there a significant gap of time between when you first encountered that spelling vs. when you learned that it was a regional variation? I'm pretty sure the first time I came across "tyre", it was on an internet forum, and by the time I was reading the thread, there were arguments & explanations about it, so I learned immediately.

I sure asked for that, huh? Lol.

Probably not technically slang, and maybe not even technically British, but I hate the all variations of "whinge". I know it's a real word, but it always feels like someone misspelling "whine". I was well into adulthood when I finally learned that though, so those feelings are just so ingrained in me at this point.

Thanks for listening to me whine.

I'm a loser and made my own. I ran out of q-tips, so it's not perfect, but damn close.

This post inspired me to make my own. I started by laying 10 q-tips on the table, then another layer of 10 perpendicular, and kept going until I had 10 layers of each. In hind sight, I recommend doing 9x9, because the next step was to poke q-tips through the grid vertically, and that pushed the other layers around and some fell off. Once you have the 9x9x9 cube, you can fill in the edges to get 10x10x10. Note that the final cube will actually be a few short of exactly 10x10x10 due to the way the shapes hold together.

And here, I thought maybe it was a joke about all the stuff people deleted during the API drama, or maybe a joke about all the stuff getting removed in recent times, but nope, just good old ml censorship.

• 0°C is freezing
• 10°C is cold
• 20°C is comfortable. Roughly "room temperature"
• 30°C is warm/hot
• 40°C is fucking hot

Depending on a variety of factors, I generally like my space to be 18-22°C during waking hours, and maybe 16-20°C for sleeping.

I'm born and raised in the US, so I grew up on Fahrenheit, but switched my phone to Celsius about 10 years ago because I wanted to better understand the scale and have stuck with it ever since. I really don't need to know the exact temperature when I check the weather, just an estimate of whether I should dress for "hot", "cold", or "mild". One of the "tricks" I heard early on was similar: 0°C is freezing. 10°C is cold. 20°C is comfortable. 30°C is warm/hot. 40°C is fucking hot.
