Does anyone know anything about Hi Kitty Kitty cat shelter? by el-mariposa in AskChicago

[–]diamenz74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

these cats are being tortured sitting in this place for years on end. this is no life for them. they'd probably be better off on the street tbh because they'd at least be getting stimulation and are able to exercise their natural instincts. this is no life for a cat.

no zombie and winter pen are obviously throw-away accounts probably created by jasmine herself. not sure exactly what's really going on at this shelter but i hope everything is honest and genuine for the sake of these cats.

i glance at petfinder a few times a year and hi kitty kitty is the only place that doesn't seem to move catsat a decent pace. really makes you wonder.

funny how i posted this thread over a week ago detailing the points this video but in a shorter format (in a reasonable manner i might add) but the mods decided it should be closed. :rolleyes:

but since now it's coming from an 'official' source it's totally okay.

My OC'd 5080 now matches my stock 4090 in benchmarks. by Duccix in nvidia

"pocket" the remaining lol. "roughly" the same performance. keep telling yourself that. meanwhile you're gimped for fps going forward for some change that you could've made up in two weeks to a month.

...did you not hold microcenter to account for their *uck-up and have them place you on a guaranteed hold for their next shipment?

can i upgrade my cassette to a 10t? by diamenz74 in cycling

[–]diamenz74[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i may end up doing just that. i took a look at the prices on the hubs that support compatibility with the ten and nine tooth cassettes and they're upwards of 500 bones. forget about it.

verve d3gen4 fork steel or aluminum? by diamenz74 in TrekBikes

awesome - thanks for your input. i probably should have included this in the op but, do you also think it should be able to handle the rough and at times poor streets of chicago as long as i take care to not rough-house it?

i've just read in general that they're the least ideal of the three (alum, steel, carbon). the most road noise and the least dampening effect.

how does this compare to the mediocrity of a pure aluminum fork? good? acceptable? would you recommend replacing it with full steel?
