  • I do not know where you’re coming from here. Pinnochio wants to be a real boy. He’ll be what he eats, so he’s going to eat a real boy so he becomes one himself. Nothing about that matches curiosity or innocence. Pinnochio has a dasterdly, horrific plan, which he aims to enact. Sly is more apt, if not alittle understated.

    Mountain lions cannot catch cats and dogs easily. Also, plenty of people would straight up murder mountain lion with a gun or their car to save a dog or cat.

    Catch, Neuter, Release diminishes wild cat populations dramatically over just a couple generations, and it doesn’t involve having to facilitate their deaths.

    Edit: I am a fan of the motorcycle idea. We should make sure they’re electric to cut down on their driving volume.

    If it’s predominantly men it’s ‘creepy’. If it’s predominantly women, it’s ‘wet’.

    I’ve heard the explanation being that if it’s mostly guys, your are most likely not going to be seen as one of ‘the creepy guys’, but if you’re one of the few guys at a gym, you’re much more likely to be picked out as creepy.

    Still sounds like some kind of sexist thing at face value.

    Also the idea is that each bite should have all the ingredients, so the limiting factor really just is “how many different things can we fit into an open mouth’s height?” Which makes it harder. I am for using thinner, higher-quality patties as a solution, but people wouldn’t like that as much as a solution.

    It’s fundamentally the difference between Linux’s modular design and Windows’ monolithic design at play.

    Because Windows is closed-source and all OS copies are something which only Microsoft can create, and because Microsoft only officiated the .exe filetype, that’s all you’ve got as an option (this is technically not the only type, though, since you have Python and Java executables as options as well).

    Meanwhile Linux is opensource and relies on the opensource community to add more convenient systems and interfaces. Different design philosophies clash in that space, and OS’s additionally try to carve out influence by making exclusive systems, like package management softwares. This creates the splintered environment we see now. It’s essentially just politics which does not exist in the more dictatorial design (as in the design is dictated by a very small group within Microsoft) of Windows.
