I don't think maintaining the floppy driver is work-intensive though.

Re: Off Topic
Probably not, though just having to remember to take care of it is quite something in itself.

Re: Off Topic
You just reminded me that I haven't checked on Manipulate the Image in ages! Looks like the theme's still Santa Ray, and there are still no entries even though it's over a month since Christmas.

Re: Off Topic
Well, that's quite unfortunate, and it leads me to a crucial question:
Re: Off Topic
I know it's completely unrelated, but the video just reminded me of the time we had Storm Desmond and someone done this.

Ah yes, don't make unnecessary journeys! It's a lot less funny these days. Still really catchy though.
Also, wasn't it Darwin, not Desmond? Or maybe I'm thinking of something different...

Re: Off Topic
I'm not sure, I just remember it being the really bad storm that resulted in such a rough see that it broke part of the sea wall in Tramore and there was a big hole in the road where someone's minivan fell into it.

Re: Off Topic
Well, I once read about Nikola Tesla falling in love with a pigeon, but I don't know if it was reciprocated… I'd like to think they do have feelings, but I'm honestly not sure. Why do you ask?

Re: Off Topic
All I know is that if you walk around a populated area full of pedestrians, pigeons just walk around through the middle of them, completely unphased, while most birds would get nervous and fly away.

Re: Off Topic
Well, the word feeling is polysemic, but if you're referring to sentience (being aware of one's sensations), then I would tend to think not. However, we probably do not know enough about animal intelligence (or simply intelligence for that matter) to answer the question.

Re: Off Topic
I thought I'd noticed a general trend in the last decade or so where birds in cities are getting bolder around people, but maybe it was always the way with pigeons.
Sometimes I like to imagine that pigeons are the real owners of the cities and they just let us believe we are because it benefits them – that's what I get for watching Animaniacs

Re: Off Topic
Ugh...the amount of pigeon corpses I've seen even in just the past 3 years... including the one road casualty I saw while I was on my way to a job interview. >.<;;;. I'm convinced that one feeling they definitely have is glutton. It always happens when they're trying to eat tiddly little bits of food or carrion stuck in the roads.
One time as well I had a baby pigeon sit on my garden fence and it wasn't super bothered by me going fairly close to take pictures. Depends on how much people feed wild animals.

Re: Off Topic
It could be that animals have greater intelligence than we have. Cats and dogs obviously use their cuteness to their advantage. That's why you always given into what they want, especially when it comes to food.Hunchman801 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 15, 2021 11:19 am Well, the word feeling is polysemic, but if you're referring to sentience (being aware of one's sensations), then I would tend to think not.

Re: Off Topic
I can vouch for this, every time I try to eat something, I turn around and there's a dog there sitting with their paw in the air.

Re: Off Topic
I've been alright for the most part, I've been spending a ton of time playing Splatoon 2 with my friends. I've clocked in over 2,500 hours into it so far.
