I am more fortunate with my desk

A big fluffy cat licks the tail of a tabby cat, both between a keyboard and a screen. The tabby cat's head is turned towards the other cat, looking surprised and angry.

This is the funniest cat pic I've seen all week, makes me wish I could upvote twice. As a replacement I shall provide this cat pic

all i see is a cat on the proper and correct cat bed

[–] Duranie@leminal.space 3 points 2 months ago

They make actual cat beds for desks!

My boyfriend had to install 2, our cats absolutely love them. One by the window, the other in proper petting position. They swap throughout the day lol.

+10 for knowing your (and the keyboards) place.

-5 for poor cable management.

I just meant the one that’s on top of the cat. What’s behind a man’s desk is his own business.

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I can't route it anywhere else, it's too short. If I put it in front Beri's face its weight would pull it down, making it get onto beri's face.

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Sounds like a you problem.

-Beri, probably

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

Totally worth it!

Also, I have the same sticker on the kit I keep with my sharpening tools

Y’all need a mini cat tree on your desks. They make ones that clamp to the desk. My spouse’s home office is the one the cats gravitate to so she bought a double decker they use there. She still has to give them the boot from the room if they are demanding too much attention, especially during meetings.

I just put a full size tower behind my desk and zip tied my second monitor to it. He LOVES it.

This cat is huge or is it perspective?

I have no clue how large a Blåhaj is :D

Standard shark size?

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 6 points 2 months ago

Blasphemy! A Lemmy user doesn't know how large a blahaj is!

On a more serious note, about 1 meter.

Thanks :3

I use it with the Catpuccin mocha theme

Go! I’ve been learning it these days and I’m surprisingly liking it (I didn’t ten years ago). Do you do it for a living? Or is it hobby?

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's a hobby, I'm working on a digital dead man switch

[–] ollie@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nice, good luck. If you have some tips for learning places for that, feel free to throw them at me.

[–] lena@gregtech.eu 2 points 2 months ago

Go By Example is an amazing resource. Other than that, I recommend you to get out of tutorial hell asap and just start building stuff. If you're going to deal with databases, I really like Gorm.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

That is correct.
