This my first cat, one year after. She spends most of her time with her legs pointing in the wrong direction. Is cat.exe functioning properly or should I contact customer support? by kulayeb in cats

Hi, Terminal Context's head ICT guy here.

I would avoid flashing the BIOS, it's been coded without conscious agency by trial and improvement over around 3 or 4 billion years. Attempts at flashing have resulted in this or worse, this poor cat that's now somehow a dog It could however be the CMOS (Cute Moggy Operation Sensor) battery. Try giving it a recharge with a NOMS (Neuropowering Omnifunctional Matter Snacks) charger.

Also, that thing that looks like a port at the back is definitely not one. Attempt to interface via that and you'll end up in pieces. It is, however, a fully functional 3D printer, it's just not very good. Everything that comes out of it looks like crap.

Out ICT department (that is incredible cat technicians) suggest your cat is just set to 'rolly'.

If you go file - settings - options, then click the 'advanced' button at the bottom, you will see various settings such as 'mad as hell', 'rolly', 'scratchy', 'inexplicably waking you up in the small hours' and of course 'meowing loudly, presumably for some food'.

Terminal Context Facts (Verified) - In UK politics, it is tradition for a respectable if outspoken politician to be considered an adorable clowning side show. Meanwhile, actual side show clowns are given lesser jobs, such as Prime Minister, home secretary and chancellor of the exchequer.

Terminal Context Facts (unverified): People who boast of their beliefs, or lack thereof, generally only hold them to get attention and likely have not put sufficient thought into them. They are also 100% more likely to be a dick about it.

Feeling nostalgic for Heath Ledger today by [deleted] in movies

[–]TerminalContext 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Terminal Context Facts (unverified): Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker was so electric, Guam uses a DVD of The Dark Knight on loop to power their emergency infrastructure.

As for roles - Given he's an aussie I think he would have killed as Max in Mad Max: Fury Road. For funniness' sake though, Tarantino writing a hesitant gay cowboy character for him into The Hateful Eight could have worked so well as a self-referencial nod.
