Stop and buy supplies of course! Even most grocery stores carry disposable litter pans, or just a plastic bin, along with food. Even a paper bowl will work for water.
One of our cats had a serious medical issue (we think a tick bit her, but we don't know for sure), and after she recovered, she attacked her own tail one night. Woke up the next morning to find blood all over the house. Poor kitty ended up having part of her tail docked. :(
We keep one of our cat carriers out because one of our cats likes to curl up in it.
We had to take another cat to the vet a few weeks ago, so I went to grab it... Nope, occupied, with the wrong cat. Rather than deal with that, I just got a different carrier.
We have two that are getting up there in age. They're both active, but the signs are there. One has irritable bowel syndrome and asthma is on medication for both. His black fur has faded in some spots, too - not much, but there are definitely spots that are a bit more brown in his legs.
The other seems healthy, but his urine had some protein and there is a slightly elevated number in his bloodwork for his liver (I think). The vet isn't sure what those mean yet, and they want him to get an ultrasound (they just told us yesterday, and we haven't had the chance to schedule it yet).
It's possible he also has IBS, which would at least mean we're used to dealing with it. He's already eating the right food.
Odds are good we have years with them yet, but it's a sign they're getting older, and a reminder that some day they'll be gone. :(
I mean, are there any cars available in the US for just $20k? I'm pretty sure a base Mazda 3 was more than that when we bought ours five years ago (before the pandemic, and ours is a higher trim model). I don't think they're making the really small cars any more (like the Toyota Yaris).
Short version, I'm skeptical of this price point for even a small pickup. Great if they can do it.
You actually can nearly do that. Facebook inexplicably showed me how a few weeks ago. If a friend reshares something, you'll see it, but it removes all groups, etc. It was stunning how little content actually comes from friends.
On the Facebook site (I'm sure it can be done via app, too, but I didn't look), click on the menu near the top right, then click Feeds (under Social). Then click on Friends on the left.
The fuck? I interview people frequently. The thank-you email is nice, but definitely not required. I'd never write someone off because they didn't send me a thank-you email. Geez.
I've been using it on my server for 6 or 8 years, and on my desktop and laptop for maybe a year. I'm not sure when I switched.
I like the stability, I generally don't need bleeding edge software. And as someone else mentioned, it's one of the packages distributors always offer.
I started using Slackware in the late 90s - say 1998. I used it for most of my desktop applications pretty much right away.
I don't game much so that wasn't an issue for me.
It was definitely harder to configure. I recompiled so many kernels and told myself the speed boost from getting exactly what I needed and nothing else was impressive. It wasn't.
I dunno. It wasn't as polished as it is now, and was harder to configure, but it was still very good, and once you got it configured, it kept working, unlike the more popular os of the day.
Can't I grill food? Or cook it on the range? Why do I have to use my oven to make meals?
