The kernel does stuff like

  • process and CPU task management
  • hardware abstraction
  • memory management (at the process level),
  • file system managment
  • and resource isolation (such as randomized memory addresses (ASLR))

The rest of the OS provides the actual software that users interact with, like

  • file managers
  • desktop rendering and window management
  • settings menus
  • sound mixing between applications
  • graphics rendering

Edit: oh, you're right

Our beds and pads are NOT pressure sensitive. All K&H heated beds and pads feature dual thermostats and are designed to warm to your pet's normal body temperature when he/she lies on the pad. This is a function of the insulation provided by a pet’s body, not the weight of the pet.

That's actually some clever engineering and design. I have always wondered how it knew when a pet was on it (it doesn't)


Thermostatically controlled to warm to your pet's normal body temperature only when your pet is in the bed

My cats love these as well

~~They are self regulating, meaning they keep a low heat when nothing is on them, but they heat up when they detect something is on them~~

Very well worth

But it clearly doesn't depict a lunar eclipse

A lunar eclipse usually results in a red moon, since the moon is lit with red light from all the sunsets on Earth simultaneously

It's not in pure shadow, since the Earth's atmosphere acts as a lens and bends some of the light inward towards the moon

This looks more like a solar eclipse

As a furry,

These are both really funny

Some cats don't like to put their faces in bowls. It pushes on their whiskers, which repeated daily can cause them pain or irritation. That's why they refuse to eat anything but the center of the bowl, where the pressure on their whiskers is the least

Try feeding them on a small plate or shallow bowl

(You might also see cats pawing their food onto the floor, then eating it. Same reason)

"These old bones remember the anchient times. Fields of grass and mice, warm sun and sallow skies. Many a friend and foe, squabbles and petty fights. The thrill of the kill, or grumbling aching hunger."

"These old bones are soon to make their last."

"But yes, I'll enjoy your fanciful flightless fowl once more... Eh- light on the fire-mouth powder this time, please"

I have a cat that will eat sea weed as intensely as if he'd gone a week without food

I wonder if this can damage the USB socket or even the motherboard in the phone, or just the cable itself

 

The weight of the material is supported by your shoulders, and not your hips, which is far more comfortable in general

In addition to having more room for pockets, overalls can carry heavier things without falling down, nor need for a belt

Since the weight of the material is carried at the shoulders, bending down at the waist is easier and less restricted. The waistband no longer needs to be tight, since it no longer serves a functional purpose
