You might be surprised at how much corn, grains, and other non-meat stuff there is in cat food. Particularly in cheap dry kibble that nobody typically bats an eye at someone feeding to their cat.

This conversation just seems so weird to me. The number of people who feed their cats anything similar to what they’d be eating in the wild is minuscule.

Meat isn’t some magic substance, biological chemical reactions turns grass into cows. That you think you can’t take those nutrients and make them bioavailable to an obligate carnivore is absurd. Ever seen an impossible burger?

And if you think the cruelty stems from the idea that cats wouldn’t like it, I gotta say. I have my cat on an expensive grain free meat heavy diet. And I know for a fact that he goes crazy for the cheap shitty corn based purina kibble. He has busted into other people’s homes to steal kibble from their cats.

So is it cruel for me to feed him a more nature based diet when it’s clear he prefers corn based trash?

I don’t see any reason why a functional vegan cat food couldn’t exist.

I did read the article, and I fail to see how this is different than other implementations.

“In a call with Beeper’s Eric Migicovsky, that’s exactly what I wanted to find out, and it seems the answer comes down to trust. Beeper as it stands today, where everything is running on Mac Minis, is being done “in the open.” The backend is largely open-source, and the company has aimed to be straightforward and transparent with every update along the way. Migicovsky adds that, soon, Beeper will be doing a full in-public security review.”

So the difference is “you can trust us”. Sounds like BS to me, you’re still routing your messages through an endpoint that is someone else’s Mac mini.

Using something like this compromises e2e encryption for you and anyone that you talk to. It’s actively inviting a man-in-the-middle into all of your chats.

It’s a shitty thing to do to your friends.

Just use Signal if you care about the green bubble stuff.

Or just buy an iPhone if that kind of thing matters to you

Consider Obsidian.md

It’s basically a lightweight system for organizing markdown files, lots of great organization and search features and lots of available extensions

I have many friends with nipple piercings.

You can’t tell through a shirt.

Nobody is scrutinizing the shape of your nipples through a t shirt

Rock Climbing is a sport that gives you a lot of control over risk. Once you understand the technical safety aspects, you can evaluate risks of a particular course of action.

Climbing mellow routes with a top rope is quite low risk.

It’s a longevity sport, at crags and gyms it’s pretty normal to see people over 50 still at it.
