Very cute, but cats should be neutered, particularly those outdoors and especially the males. Males can roam a fair distance and often only have a short lifespan in suburbia. This just creates an ongoing problem with strays and ferals.

the Trump administration has shown signs of enthusiasm for a pronatalist agenda. DOGE head Elon Musk, a father of 14, posts regularly on social media about the need for Americans to have more babies; he has also promoted NatalCon on X. Vice President JD Vance has proposed the idea of a weighted voting system, in which the votes cast by parents would be valued more highly than those by the childless. US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy (a father of nine) signed a memo recommending that his department prioritize “communities with marriage and birth rates higher than the national average.”

Isn't this old news? I recall Trump not only throwing out the handbook, but disbanding the pandemic response team, too...

About the only thing Google is right to be concerned about here is the timeline to enforce these changes - requiring them to be implemented within a couple of weeks does indeed pose a risk that something will go wrong or be missed (causing vulnerabilities). Other than that, I look forward to Google being forced to allow competition.

I think this person may be mentally ill.

I was already dubious about upgrading from 10 to 11 and this is final straw. I will have to look at Linux options and see if my Windows-only programs will run effectively under WINE.

The browser addon "AdNauseum" can help with that, although it's not a complete solution.
