Thank you each and every contributor to this conversation.
Really learned a lot.

The boss tells me, "Batteries ? You don't have to buy them, just come by the office when you need a set. I can keep you in batteries, no problem."
So, Duh.

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Modern cats don't have owners; they have clients.
Mine for example ('Canada' by name) lives in a nice post-modern flat beneath the towel rack in our upstairs bath. It's adjacent to a furnace vent, so warm and comforting to her old bones (she's 16).

I think not. I happen to have two in my household. One is "special" - has bladder issues, needs special food at $75/bag.
Insert  here. Normally my better half handles this.
Cat #2 likes to climb the new cellular shades I have just installed. Daughter, "Dad, kicking the cat will not solve the problem." Me, "It will if he goes far enough."
Other daughter is going on cruise, "Will you watch my cats?" she asks my better half. Yesterday, I came home to a large turd in the bathtub... oh yeah, *that* cat (he has a history of being picky).

Due to a recent change of location, I've had to go from 100M broadband to 500K cell hotspot service.  Of course, I've noticed that the streaming I get from Joker Live Stream has been spotty. I'm using Hola Video Accelerator, and it's helping, but I was wondering if there is another extension I should try.

Your question puzzles me, actually. It is like asking : "So I recently switched from a ferrari to a ford mondeo, and I wonder if there is any car shampoo that would allow me to drive 320km/h like I did before ?"

Reading this delightful riposte, with one eye, I read it as "cat shampoo"

I think cat shampoo (is that a thing ?) could work even better in this case !
|
|
|
|

It's possible. Several years ago my cat was meandering around the rim of the tub while I was taking a shower and she fell in. Since she didn't seem to mind this, and had been kind of scruffy lately, I shampooed her, rinsed her off, and wrapper her in a towel. No blood was lost.
Of course, now that she's old and cranky, things might turn out differently...

The best way to achieve 320km/h in this car is to push it out of an airplane from 45,000 feet.

We should have a vote on what's the worst part of Linux
- Java
- Regular expressions
- Hygiene
- Sleeping to the sound of whirring fans (alone)

Probably hygiene.
My OpenVMS systems probably out-noise all possible Linux systems.

There's am mistake in the Linux one. Linux is written in C not C++
Linus Torvalds: C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot
of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much
easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even if
the choice of C were to do *nothing* but keep the C++ programmers out,
that in itself would be a huge reason to use C.

What's remarkable about that quote is it's exactly what C++ programmers say about VB.

For the curious, the product I bought is Amazon.com : European Gourmet Bakery Organic Chocolate Icing Mix, 11 Ounce - 12 per case. : Pudding : Grocery & Gourmet Food and the reason I have to buy it online now is because the store that used to carry it no longer does! They've replaced their frostings with some crap-in-a-can.
Hate it when that happens. This stuff is great, and because it's dry, I can easily add vanilla or almond extract or cherry juice or other flavor enhancements.
Of course, I suppose I could pretty easily make my own frosting too. That's down the road some time.
