To be fair, they started developing symptoms much later then when we took care of them. But yeah, we had a lot of cats in the years, 90% of them were strays (or in this case, one of them was actually kicked of their house and spent some years outside) that self-tamed over time lol.

We had two stray cats, one was confirmed FIV+, the other not, they didn’t really get any recurring infection, but they both started having the same neurological symptoms: they lost control of their back legs and sphincters, had trouble walking straight and cleaning themselves so we had to do it.
I don’t know if this is a regular outcome of FIV, or if it’s even related at all, but you might want to look for gradual problems with walking and balance. Not much you can do unfortunately, but what I can tell you is they don’t get any less loving, actually, they probably get more. His last days one of the strays went from barely staying close to a human unless being fed, to purr, pets and constant headbutts.
Good luck with your little fella, glad he could find a caring home.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why are people like my son's girlfriend so obsessed with jailbreaking?
94·7 months ago- doing things you are not supposed to do is fun
- thinkering with electronics in fun
- we are sacrificing our freedom to megacorporations that continously tell us what to do, what to think, what you can and can’t do with devices we own and enshittify them. Taking back some of that freedom feels good

Linux@lemmy.ml•Paint Dot Net Version 4.0.13 Running on Wine 11 (modified)
1·7 months agoLinux Mint has a program simply called “Drawing” that does exactly that. You can resize pictures, draw shapes, write text, paint and save as other formats. It’s a big buggy and unoptimized, but it’s cool. For simple things, it’s sometimes more convenient than GIMP.
Totally worth it
That’s one chonky little angel.
I’m guessing it’s fluffier than anything I’ve ever touched.

2·7 months agoThank you for your love. Glad he could warm your week :) he surely made a lot of people happier.
I’m doing ok. Loosing a furry friend is tough, but (unfortunately) I lost many in my years so I can deal with it. The only bad things about pets is that they always leave too soon.

History Memes@piefed.social•"Yeah, we just kind of have ancient history laying around everywhere here. Why, what's your country like?"
6·7 months agoIt’s nice if you find ancient rubble in your field. Then there are places like Rome where every pound of dirt you dig you uncover some Roman things and the authorities must come and check if thinga have to be preserved. Imagine the hell that was digging the underground metro lines…

Technology@lemmy.world•The Console That Wasn’t: How the Commodore 64 Outsold Game ConsolesEnglish
42·7 months agoUnfortunately, that is not really possible.
The UEFI standard, a pdf that describes in detail the unified system that all motherbpards use during the boot process, is 1200+ pages long. And that’s only one of the many subsystems in a modern system (that gigantic pdf tells you nothinf about PCI, about ACPI and usb, nor any other hardware peripheral). Also, since you are talking about a modern system, you also would need kernel, drivers and operating system calls documentation. All of these exist (for an open source OS like linux, and if you follow the aforementioned standards), but bundling them in a book, and keeping them uodated, would be just impossible.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•2 women who made my life unbearable at my last workplace now greet me like nothing happened. Has this happened to you before?
2·7 months agoYes, it’s normal, or at least it’s not super unusual. People can be the meanest to your face and then pretend that nothing happened. Is it because they are ashamed of themselves? Because they want to pretend that nothing happened and hope you won’t bring it up? Because they want to maintain happearances in front of others? Are they trying to gaslight you? I don’t know, but it did happen to me and to other people I know.

cats@lemmy.world•Tonight I lost my big boy due to a sudden pneumonia :(
37·7 months agoThank you ❤️. He came to our home more than 5 years ago, already adult. He was most likely a house cat that was left on the street for some reason: in realively good health, but a little skinnier, neutered, but not chipped and every human he encountered he would ask for pets, even complete strangers. For some reason he licked and playfully bite like dogs when petting him.
Once we found him in front of the train station, he was just sitting there taking pets from random commuters coming in and out of the station. He was really precious and a bit needy of love, we gave him all we could.

I enjoyed it a lot and honestly, while I could see the massive influence it had on other things, and even being impressed by the distopian technology that would seem really scifi at the time, but is normal today, I think there are some aspects that have been explored further, but not at the same detail.
For example, doublethink and newspeak as a concept exists in other media, but I’ve never seen it explored to such details than in the book.

Not only that, usually lettinf people out fully and then going is is faster than getting all crammed and sruck trying to enter.
