They first started selling hamburgers in 1958.

The wiki has all the info you need.

Sonic Adventure will always hold that special place in my heart. It was just so amazing then. And the chao garden + VMU integration!

Litter box math is important. Very simple equation: 1 litter box per cat + 1.

A litter genie (like the pail you linked) is a great choice for building the habit of cleaning the litter box often. Recommended to keep one near each litter box.

Also be aware, pine bedding can be an irritant to humans and cats (and many other mammals). It’s usually not recommended— mostly due to the dust. Pine pellets tend to be more safe due to how they’re processed.

Be wary of canned tuna- it tends to have higher levels of mercury which over time (such as daily feeding) can cause heavy metal poisoning in humans an and small animals. I personally don’t even bother, my cat gets freshly cooked shreds of meat as treats once in a while and special occasions.

On the topic of training: be patient, don’t use a water bottle or snap / loud shouting. Instead, when they’re doing something they shouldn’t be, calmly pick them up and physically move them to somewhere they can be and provide a toy or activity to replace the thing they were trying to do. Such as a string toy or other floppy toy out in the open if they were caught playing with computer wires under the desk. This goes for scratching too, if they are scratching the door/couch/bed/carpet, etc— place cardboard or rope scratching posts and pads nearby and physically move them from the bad spot to the good spot. Move around the good spots as needed based on what you observe. You will have to do this a lot, generally, but be patient and they will get the message. Positive reinforcement includes those toys and scratcher, you don’t have to provide a treat every time, especially as they grow up and become more independent.

Since you’re asking for opinions, I think you might be overreacting. But that’s totally natural after an accident!

That said, if you’re considering never driving again, then you really have to be sure that’s possible. If your family pushed you into it in the first place, they might already know that it isn’t feasible to rely on public transport where you live. That is extremely common in the US, because there is so much damn space between everything in most places. If you have to rely on others to fill the gaps where public transit fails, then you have to really consider if you’re doing more harm than good by refusing to drive. Ultimately the decision is up to you but there’s lots to consider here that we don’t have all the information for. It’s a good skill to have but requires maintenance to keep.

It’s the guts of a pair of headphones, retrofitted with a battery and audio jack. Consider it a Bluetooth audio receiver and DAC with standard audio output.

Switch 2 is 1.18lbs, Switch 1 OLED is 0.93lbs, Switch 1 is 0.88lbs, and the Steam Deck OLED is 1.41lbs. So the steam deck is almost twice the weight of Switch 1 lol. I would guess the more ergonomic grips made it seem like it was lighter.

fwiw, the Switch 2 screen is gorgeous, they did a really good job on this custom display. Putting it side by side oled and the average consumer wouldn’t be able to tell the difference “except one is bigger”.

Dev betas usually have a LOT more logging and background processes running and battery life is expected to be worse than public stable release, especially in the first couple days after install while all the indexes get refreshed and rebuilt globally.

God, so few and yet so fucking many on my daily commute. Each one of them a worse driver than the last.

 
 

I have been using a plugin recently in Rider that basically hooks most features of the app to notifications that teach me the current keyboard shortcut for said feature. It has some customization options such as needing a threshold of usages before prompting, reminders, etc. It’s even gamified a little bit by tracking how many times you successfully used the shortcuts and how much time you estimatedly saved.

I really like this plugin and I’m wondering if anyone knows of a similar plugin for NeoVim? I have been exclusively using NeoVim at home for terminal file edits to help learn it and I’m getting better slowly but I just figured maybe I could accelerate this with something helpful like that.

If this doesn’t exist, does anyone have any offhand resources for getting started with NeoVim plugin development?
