A cat can never be held accountable. Therefore a cat must never take the blame. :ablobcatangel:

The total #SolarEclipse on 12 August will be a low affair both for totality watchers in Spain (let alone Mallorca) and for maximum partiality watchers in Central Europe, so making sure you'll have a free horizon for solar elevations below 10° in the right azimuth is essential. And now is the time to test the location you have in mind as on the evening of 12 August the declination of the Sun will be 14°47' while on April 29 and 30 it will be 14°38' and 14°56', respectively, i.e. 9 arc minutes or 1/3 solar diameter lower or higher. So if you see the low Sun both today and tomorrow (and don't expect any more vegetation or buildings to materialize in the next 3 1/2 months) you can be sure that you can also see the totally or maximally eclipsed Sun on 12 August. (This dress rehearsal idea has already been promoted - e.g. in https://www.rac1.cat/meteo/20260428/341109/dimecres-pots-anticipar-gran-eclipsi-agost-lloc-veura-dia.html - in Spain.)

Someone please bring me food, there is a cat asleep on my lap.

He’s finished his three hour nap on the couch in my office, so now he has dragged himself over to have a follow up nap on my lap
Every Day Is #Caturday

For #Caturday we bring you Tails deciding she fits in the flower box. We have been inundated with flowers since Mum died and have to be sure to keep flowers and cats separated as Tails wants to eat them. They aren't usually allowed in the dining room so Tails is making the most of it 😄 Sparky is on the chair in the background, not being a nutjob.

Bliss. #CatsOfMastodon #cats

I decided to try pCloud for a month, as my OneDrive expires in April and apparently, for my current plan, Word, Excel, and Powerpoint have been fused into one glorious app called "Copilot App" (that was the last straw). LibreOffice deserves my yearly donation anyway.
pCloud has an AUR package and the installation is dead simple.
Note: Jottacloud seems great, too. But a colleague considers switching to Linux, and pCloud might be the easier option for him in the future. W…

Getting a jump start on #caturday, before I forget.

I got my standing desk at work mostly set up... one issue is that when it's raised up I can't see my calendar on the wall. I mean, I can see the cat, but not the days below the cat...

I was having a nice dream last night, so the cat woke me up early.

The cat sounds a little horse

Guess the cat is proud of herself. Wife was in the other room so I placed a fried egg and small piece of ham on a plate by her chair Cat was asleep on the sofa on her heating pad. Figured she would not notice and had never seen her express interest in eggs before.
Went into the other room and a few minutes later heard the wife yelling at the cat. Came out and found the cat had taken her egg and ran behind the sofa with it.

Just patched a long fiber link, which would've absolutely _sucked_ to get CAT.7 cable through.
The steel-armored OS2 cable is cheap and super robust/easy to work with. The LC connectors are even smaller than the hole for CAT.7 would've been.
This is nice \o/
What I want to say is: Don't be afraid of fiber for DIY networking people, it's awesome and often muuuch better than copper cable!
I also didn't have to do any annoying LSA terminations or crim…

This little lady has been hanging out with me pretty much non-stop since I got sick. She basically just leaves the bed for food & bathroom breaks. Absolutely THE BEST cat. #Erie #CatsOfMastodon

You look like you need a photo of a cat lounging on a stack of Toshiba laptops from the 1990s

A few pencil sketches I made of our cat Loki. Trying to get into drawing with almost no experience, and I love how even on this small example, sketching the same object three times already shows some immediate progress. :blobcatnomcookie:

why wakey when you can do this?

It started with a headline in the Guardian, some old memory of Minitel made me click. I stopped reading after I read about Félicette. A cat that went into space and came back alive.

My time is worth so little that I just spent 90 minutes resecting a very nice USB-C cable that was chewed mostly in half by a cat. She really seems to have a thing for the silicone sheathing!

I just went shopping in a store that has a resident cat (bodega cat, except it wasn't a bodega).

Cat Heads in Space: The Novel That Grew a Body
Some books begin as sentences. Others begin as outlines or fragments scrawled on napkins at two in the morning. This one began as a sound. Specifically, it began as the sound of my own voice reading a line about a cat head floating through space in a Life Helmet, arguing with another cat head about whether their ship had a name, and realizing that the argument was funnier and sadder and more philosophically loaded than…

Back in 1992 or so there was a cat that would hang around the Fang Gang House in Madison and I called the cat "Claude" (because it's like "Clawed") and Milt call the cat "Mr. Roarke" but I thought that was a dumb name so I made a trading card for the cat with the name "Claude" on it.
I'll never name anything Claude (or "Clawed") again.

Eating a pack of McCoy's salt and vinegar crisps, and it turns out my cat Charley likes the salt and vinegar flavour even more than I do. She's less interested in the potato part. Her brother, Bruce, loves to lick the salt from Pringles. Pet food manufacturers may be missing a trick.

I need to get a cat flap. Haven’t had a cat in a dozen years because I can’t take on the obligation… but we’ve got a broad collection of semi-ferals in the neighborhood.

It should also be noted that beyond the ethical, political and environmental issues with this is that it doesn't work:
1. There is on average no mid to long term productivity gain with actual real-world software development that isn't just a "wow see what it can do" demo. (Multiple studies have shown that now.)
2. It won't help with 90% of the work when professionally making software, which, believe it or not, isn't coding. 90% of the work is designing and planning the software (these are things that happen both upfront and during development).
Maybe you have seen the recent Microsoft thing rolling back features in Windows they added?
E.g. Copilot in Notepad. What they did is essentially outsourcing project management to developers who then outsourced it to LLMs. But an LLMs can't plan and design software, and arguably barely can even generate code that works (as in reliable and performant). So now they have a buggy mess with features no one wants and they're rolling it back.
There's no silver bullets in software development.

Pedro the #Math Cat 🐈 knows that everyone has to say "big stretch!" even when it is just a medium stretch.

I recall that a long time ago, someone told me I'm acting like a cat. Curious it didn't get me thinking; though I guess I didn't really know any cats back then.

Fun Fact:
While many think cURL by @… stands for "Client and URL", it actually got it's name from what a sleeping cat does!

Our cat needed some activities to keep him busy so he doesn't destroy the house. My partner bought a puzzle then I realized there are plenty of 3D models of cat toy puzzles as well.

I was having a vivid dream last night and thought myself, "Wait is this a dream?"
To test if it was a dream or real life, I looked up at the sky to giant cat with 1 head and 2 bodies, looked away then gazed again to notice it now only had ONE body.
That's how I knew it was a dream! :blobcatthinksmart:

Has science gone too far?

My prefer pronoun is 🐱, like a stray tabby cat you see from distance. Specifically unknown, and won't matter what you use as the kitty just looks at you.
Not joking.
That being said, I will always respect other people's pronouns and you should too. :3
