I’ve had Pixelmator for years and it’s more than enough for my quite unprofessional editing needs. Someone with better artistic skills would be able to do pretty much all the same stuff they would do in PS from what I gather.

Depends on the cat(s) really.

My old kitty (RIP) was a third one in a house with two nominally feral adoptees and they did not welcome her.

When I moved and she was the sole cat she displayed stress and shredded two sofas and more.

Now we have two unrelated cats adopted together that don’t totally adore one another but are civil and they have NEVER scratched a single non-kitty item.

While they tend to keep to themselves I DO think they stimulate each other with occasional (thankfully gentle) paw bats and chases or just do solitary cat things. Like roommates.

So…depends - if you’re not home a lot kitty will need stimulation. Good luck!

I’m so sorry. That is such a hard but kind act - to give them peace when the time comes. It’s a gesture of love back for all they give us.

Dude. 1/2 size larger maybe?

I kid but seriously. I once made the mistake of getting new shoes RIGHT before a convention where I was on my feet for 8-10 hours a day and no time to get different ones. They were too tight and that pressure caused me pain for years.

Nearly?!? I mean sure a furnace or a steam roller or a nuclear blast might do it but….putting on shoes?

Us too. Quick, inexpensive, great B&W prints on the rare occasions we need to have them. Wireless and a scanner/copier too.

That’s the argument as I understand it - they hope to generate sympathy from the public and I assume legal system…”looks at that frail, harmless old man”. It’s a charade that I experienced while in a jury pool - defendant was in a wheelchair and looked like a weak, sick elderly man…accused of stabbing and nearly killing a much younger, healthy woman. I doubt she just stood there as he slowly rolled up.

You’re paying for labor. If you’re the cheapest option retention will be poor, knowledge and experience will leave and your business will (and should) suffer.

Penny wise, pound foolish.

The plastic drain cleaners at home improvement stores with the Velcro tips work really well. They’re like 2’ long but in my experience cleaning the wife and kids long hair out of the bath drain has show that to be plenty.

The added fact that I have basically no hair on my head also makes be a tad bitter about always being the “handyman” guy of our family. :p

My man!

indeed. Inside canned food, there are dead corpses of bacteria only,

Well, not just that right? I mean some tuna or Spam makes it in as well surely.

Yeah….also curious. It’s been a couple of years but when I previously bought stuff from Monoprice it was a smoking deal and I’m pretty certain none of the cables I bought ever failed me.

I was a 14-year Redditor that contributed both to them and app platforms. Nuked my account on principle because of how they decided to treat the community that built them. Nobody asked me to, I acted on my own discretion because it was (in my view) the right thing to do. Same reason I ditched Twitter.

The mods were acting on the same basis - they had supported a platform that made decisions they opposed. It wasn’t in service of anything other than doing the right thing.

I’m by no means a laserologist but my layperson understanding is that laser colors are achieved through different means of generating the laser - using various gases etc. So a red or green laser have different properties. Now there may be a way to achieve colors optically and the light itself being consistent but from the bit I recall green ones took quite a bit more power to generate than red so I think would be hotter.

….or I’m WAYYYYY off. 🥸😜

Ouch.

Just wanted to remove any potential ambiguity as some might think it a love song. ;)

Starfuckers is, I believe, about her. It’s….not complimentary.

People of inexplicably confident certainty that they alone have discovered legal loopholes enabling them to ignore laws they don’t like while benefitting from public services and infrastructure of a nation they assert they are not a citizen of. It’s delusional ignorance.

I hope so too! Like I said, trying is a massive step and isn’t easy. Give yourself credit for that and be proud.

You’re trying which takes a lot of courage - that’s the right attitude for sure. I’d suggest joining activities not just gathering places in subjects you’re passionate about or interested in. By that I mean like games, sports, arts etc - a class or club means you share similar interests (something to break the ice) and social context to interact. It’s more likely you’ll click with others that share your interest.

So go to tour your local town in an organized group. Take a painting or pottery class. Join a recreational sport club.

Good luck!
