@lydiaconwell That's fair. I don't think _all_ of his movies are great either, but some of his movies I found outright brilliant. But that's my taste. :) I do notice that it's mostly the older ones by now, 90's mostly. I don't even know if he's made more movies recently, since I'm not really following him.

@lydiaconwell I actually like many of his films. Groundhog Day is one of my favorites. The Man Who Knew Too Little is hilarious as well. Ghostbusters is alright, it's a cult one so it's also worth watching at least once in your life anyway.

Sure, there have been movies too that I was like 'eh?'. Lost in Translation was indeed lost in translation for me, for example, though my bro absolutely loved that one somehow.

@alu Ah, a classic 'compare a worldwide pandemic to systematic genocide'. That site is so silly.

@lucifargundam Egg'd as in throwing eggs? Isn't it a tad early for Halloween?

@mur2501 Oh, that one's beautiful. I was so disappointed that my cat grew out of this so quick.

@mur2501 If it's extremely specific, it probably is true.

@lmedinar And then the master had to reimburse the novice for the device, since it can't be that cheap. :P

@mur2501 Ghehehe, very sometimes when I'm in a very mischievous mood, I put some tape on my cat's paws. It's hilarious to see him try to shake them off.

I love me some cat shakes. ;)

@mur2501 I'm glad I haven't needed to bathe my cat for years now. He really looks so very pitiful when I have to clean him. ;)

@heimdall I usually get the modpacks off curseforge, and the major ones generally have seperate serverfiles available for download.

In the case of SkyFactory 4, there's a README.txt file which explains things a little which should help you on the way.

@heimdall SkyFactory 4. Definitely going to use AE2 in there.
Project Ozone 2 (which you linked) is also great, but it's a pretty old Minecraft version by now. A shame I didn't enjoy Project Ozone 3 as much.

@mur2501 Black cats are lovely. They're crazy little voids.

Another li'l tale about the black cat my parents had:
When you were eating dinner, you very well better defend your meat. If you're not watching, she's going to snatch the meat right off your plate right there.
I think she managed to do that a few times with my dad. I was wary, though, and didn't let her near me while eating dinner. Man, she was quite inquisitive. No, off the chair while I'm eating! Don't dare to get near my plate!

Afterwards she loved licking the dessert bowl clean. My dad would usually get some sort of strawberry yoghurt after dinner and she absolutely loved that one.

@mur2501 I've had that in the past. Buncha birds, some even still alive, not really fun. Lots of feathery mess to clean up too.

Some mice... including live ones. Sigh. Had to spend a week trying to chase that one out. The other one I found in a shoe which I picked up and brought out into the garden so it could get away on its own.

A few ducklings. One still lived and I brought it back to his momma. The rest were dead.

Sometimes a dead dragonfly or butterfly.

Though all this is getting way less over the years. In fact, I can't remember the last time my cat dragged something home.

My parents had a black cat some 5+ years ago. She was lovely, but she was also a great hunter. I think having black fur probably helped her there. Anyway, she brought back a lot of dead and alive animals home... Joy. To enter the kitchen and seeing half a mouse body with its innards spread around isn't really very appetizing. She was a true hunter 'til the very end.

@mur2501 Oh he's snoozing a lot alright! But then, cats can easily snooze 18 hours a day if they wanted to. I'd get pains all over my body if I'd try to sleep for that long.

@mur2501 Height = overview. Hunters want to be able to easily spot things. You can spot a lot from great height and the prey is usually unaware.

From this I can conclude that my cat is, thankfully, a shitty hunter.

@mur2501 Snipped cats are more peaceful than unsnipped ones. But part is also character. Some cats never snap out of their hunting instinct. My cat does get a bit more mellow with age. One of those days he might actually become a lapcat if he's old enough. :P
