@countMyr "Kindness is a survival skill." 😭💖

Anyone who used this type of CD-R back then was a true veteran. They’d buy the shortest cable to connect the drive, or even custom-make one to minimize jitter. While writing, they’d close all apps, freezing without touching a key or mouse. If the burn failed, they’d literally see a $10 bill ascending to heaven. 💸💀

Before pride month starts im just gonna say this: -men’s mental health month is in November -straight pride isn’t a thing. Nobody has ever been oppressed or killed for being straight -veterans get 2 months. May and November So do some research before complaining :)

I want to believe

Toru Miyazaki gave 11 cats with advanced kidney disease an experimental injection. 15 others didn’t get it. A year later, 9 of the 11 treated cats were alive. Only 3 of the 15 untreated cats survived. He just filed for approval, and the drug fixes a defect only cats have. Most cats die from one thing: their kidneys fail. By age 10, 4 in 10 cats already have chronic kidney disease, and by age 15, the rate doubles to 8 in 10. Once diagnosed, a cat has about 2 years left. The reason kidney disease hits cats so hard is a broken protein in their blood. All mammals carry a protein that helps the kidneys clean out waste. In humans and dogs, the protein floats freely and goes to work when the kidneys are in trouble. In cats, it stays stuck to another protein and can’t get loose. So the waste piles up, and the kidneys eventually give out. Miyazaki originally found the protein in 1999, back when he was at the University of Tokyo. He figured out the cat-specific glitch in 2015. The paper he published in the Veterinary Journal in February laid out the trial. The injection is a working version of the missing protein. His company, the Institute for AIM Medicine, filed the approval paperwork with Japan’s Ministry of Agriculture on April 24, 2026. If the review clears, the drug goes on sale in spring 2027. The 30-year lifespan figure in the tweet is Miyazaki’s own projection of what cats could reach without kidney disease. The trial only ran a year, and the average cat today lives 15. Most die from the same disease this injection treats. The research almost died in 2020. After running out of funding during COVID, Miyazaki went public. Cat owners across Japan responded by sending in 300 million yen, around 2 million dollars total. He resigned from the University of Tokyo and worked on the drug full time. The treatment in front of regulators today exists because cat lovers refused to let the research die.

In happier news, huge shout out to @WavlinkOfficial support for providing the stock firmware to my RapidFire H4 enclosure, along with the flash tools. 💖

She had multiple tvs in her home and hired people to change the tapes all day everyday She also owned 192 apple computers. All mostly unopened. She also invested in Apple stock when the company was failing She had 150 magazine subscriptions, several newspaper subscriptions, 40,000 books and collected toys. The last thing playing on her tv when she died was the news report of the sandy hook shooting

@Moto_Support At minimum it'd be nice to be able to set a configurable delay for major releases. I'm not ready to move to 16 until some wrinkles are ironed out, and preventing me from deciding when to update my own device is anti-consumer and against the spirit of Right to Repair.

@AutumnGarnet Thank you for reaching out, and I really appreciate the way you shared this. Complete removal of system update reminders isn’t always possible, since they’re part of Android’s core security design. Your feedback is important, and we'll be sure to relay this to our team. - Frank

Hey @Moto I really appreciate your dedication to Right to Repair when it comes to replacement components for your phones (I'm going to need to replace my screen shortly) but can it please extend to software? These nag screens to update to Android 16 are extremely interruptive.

This is the greatest video I’ve ever seen. No notes. The lifeless clanker carcass just laying there. No crowd reaction, anything. Just Billie Jean. Until its lifeless shell is shamefully dragged off. Purely amazing.

Be free! Draw rabbits with paw pads!
