Why do cats sometimes get in fights with their own feet and kick themselves in the face?

Nobody in here is serious haha!

One of a feline’s most devastating offensive/kill maneuvers is to grab its prey in its front paws belly to belly (claws out to keep hold), and use its more powerful back feet’s claws to slice through its prey’s belly. Repeatedly until the victims guts fall out, leaving the victim evicerated and slowly dying. What you are seeing when they are “playing” like that is them practicing a lethal combo move.

Even common housecats are murder machines. They don’t have bells because they are cute, the bells are to warn birds and squirrels of incoming doom. I’m serious, they are the #1 killer of small animals.

What's the worst thing you've ever smelled?

Raw sewage. We had some leak up into an apartment back when I was a maintenance guy. The smell actually assaults the eyes first, then you start gagging. We had to lock the apartment off for a full month while the clean-up company did their thing. They were wearing full on gas masks and goggles.

Things you wished you knew before setting up your Deck?

I wish I had known at the beginning that its not a delicate porcelain device. If you break the software, its easy to discover the right Linux command to fix it. Or you can plan ahead before tinkering, take a backup image, and just reimage it.

And if something goes wrong hardware-wise, its easy to open up and work on. All the parts, seriously all of them are able to be sourced from reputable companies and can be quickly installed.

I was scared of hurting it day one, but Ive since learned that you cant. Tinker away!

505 Games' parent company lays off 30% of its workforce, says gamers really only want sequels so that's what it's going to make

Ah yes the anime treatment. Only release reboots, sequels, prequels, and poor spinoffs. For every One Punch Man, Mob Psycho 100, Chainsaw Man, or Megalobox, there are way more re-do’s or milking such as Yet Another Gundam Series, a new Bleach something or another, InuYasha retread, Trigun reboot, Hunter x Hunter reboot, FMA Brotherhood, Fruits Basket, Fate/Stay universe, Evangelion remake, everything DragonBall…I could go on. It’s rather depressing.

Games are just following the curves established by other artistic mediums over the decades when laziness and greed wins, as it always does. Even The Last of Us wasn’t safe.
