  • I remember the cat I grew up with, she was amazing, hated being in your lap, but liked being nearby, she would join us on walks, but when her territory ended she would stop and meow loudly at us, seriously, we could hear her a block away… She was caring, if you were crying, she would lie down next to you and purr like crazy, we had a pool when I grew up, and when we dipped our heads under the water she grew very concerned, she would pace the edge and meow.

    She was also an avid hunter, catching plenty of fieldfares, mice and even the tail of a squirrel…

    She lived a long life, and as we remodeled our house at the time, there was always something new to explore.

    The reason that Linux systems are less prone to malware is twofold, historically Linux users have been more technical, but foremost due to it’s lower marketshare of desktop users, giving malware devs a lower return on their time writing software.

    This is changing rapidly now, less technically skilled people are switching to Linux and more are running it on their desktops.

    This makes for a more interesting target meaning more time is devoted to writing malware for Linux.

    So, a good AV should now be used ahead of the incoming malware wave, ignoring it and suggesting that other’s do the same is arrogant.




  • “You know, this guy — Vladimir, whatever his name is — total disaster! Total disaster! He’s in Ukraine, causing all kinds of problems, and frankly, he’s been very disrespectful. Very disrespectful!”

    “We gave them a beautiful deal — beautiful! We delivered Putin’s peace plan right to Kiev, hand-delivered, like Amazon Prime, and what do we get? Nothing! Just whining, complaining, fake accusations — the usual nonsense!”

    “If they had just said yes — just said yes! — we’d have peace, we’d have stability, and quite frankly, I’d be getting the Nobel Peace Prize. Everybody knows it. Everybody!”

    My imagined quotes from a possible Trump rant about the situation.
