Not exactly what you’re asking for, perhaps, but I’ve used a “backpack cat carrier” for this (basically a black backpack with mesh bits to see/ breathe through). I sometimes wear it on my front, which looks weird to other humans, but the cats tend to seem happier if they can see my face.

Surely the child has a toy bear or glove puppet that outranks Trump in the chain of command?

Looks like someone’s been reading the Thesaurarse / Thesaurass.

That sounds amazing. I’d love to see a photo. I’d planned a similar project with an old radio, but it’s one of those things that’s been on my “I’ll get round to it eventually” list for 5 years :)

I guess it’s very much a matter of taste.

Ten years or so earlier, you could still get a TV where the sides of the case were made of wood. Wood, metal and black plastic throughout. Physical buttons that went ‘clunk’, a physical slider to adjust the volume, a metal dial for tuning.

To me, that was peak design.

The Day of the Triffids (Wiki link)

I tend to use the traditional British methods of sighing, whingeing and moaning.

Moaning about the weather can be done communally at bus stops, to increase comradeship.

I believe it’s an artist’s rendering of close-up of a cartoon rabbit’s bumhole.

For international readers, that’s a size 2 in UK/Australia, and approximately a size 33.5 - 34 European.

Apparently it’s also roughly a 210 - 215 mondopoint length.

One of my cats sometimes likes to walk up behind the laptop, push into the lid until it closes, then sit on it.

This is good, solid, scientific advice - however, you no longer have to destroy it - I can sell you these small magnets to wrap round the cables, which will attract and then trap any escaped nanobots. They will get clogged up quite quickly though, so you need to replace them every month - but don’t worry, we’ve got an easy and convenient subscription for them. Normal magnets won’t work, by the way - you need the special ones we make.

No, they hide all the ai inside the actual key itself.

If you prise up the edge of the key and look under it, you’ll see all the ai nanobots hidden under there.

AI nanobots look a bit like crumbs, fluff and dust - so if you can see any of those under your AI key, you know the AI is still there.

“TURBO”

Comment has a typo in it; it sholud be typo not typoo ☝️🤓

I use the “control nipple” occasionally, but I use the physical mouse buttons every day always.

Even though they’re slightly oddly positioned to use with the touchpad, they’re a million times better than not having any buttons at all.

The invention of Racism is often credited to Scottish inventor Alexander Graham Racism - though it’s generally now considered that German inventor Johann Philipp Reisism had a practical example of Racism fifteen years earlier.

Bitty! Bitty is one of my favourite cats-that-aren’t-my-cats :)

It was trying to plug its power output plug into one of its power input sockets to get “free electricity”.

From the mid to late 1990s, definitely. Not so convinced after that.

There’s a short summary in this article:
IFL Science: Pavlov’s Dog Experiment Was Much More Disturbing Than You Think

I’m not certain on the accuracy of everything it’s saying, but other sources at least seem to agree he was originally studying digestion, and cut holes in the dogs’ throats so the food would fall out when they ate.
