It was made into a film called Children of Men.

Try AwesomeWM. Or if you are determined to have a tiling only then QTile is good.

Probably the opposite.

Our "higher reasoning" and "state of awareness" (needs defining) gives us the ability to do thigns other animals can't. For example chronic pain sufferers are taught how to manage their pain with a variety of CBT techniques. Not something you can teach a dog or cat.

People in intense periods of intense suffering may have thw ability to dissociate from the experience ("go to their happy place") to lessen the pain experience.

We're not aware animal shave this ability.

If anything mammals of all kinds that feel pain don't have our higher cognitive ability to help manage and supress it.

Having said that it's possible we feel more emotionally complex pain. Pain induced from our own minds by remembering trauma or imagining painful situations. As someone pointed out below a dying animal probably isn't thinking about the loss of it's family as it's dying. But it will be feeling the pain of dying acutely.

I wish the Lemmy instances would realise the ultimate ideal isn't just deferated instances but federated logins too - in combination!!

So rather than being signed up to 1 istance plus an alt. You can just be logged into Google/FB/Twitter and access all the sinstances.

I wrote my compiler in Haskell because it seemed that it’d be much less hassle compared to do it in a object oriented or procedual language.

That is not a feeling I'd associate with Haskell!!

Hello Mr Hong Kongnese. I'm a Brit. We don't boil water here and I've visisted Iceland - they don't boil it either.

Diu gau lan tsat hai - Merry Christmas. Enjoy your holiday.

I admin-ed my own vBulletin board around 04-06. The script itself cost about £90 back then. It was so great though. Small community of like-minded people all chattng. It was like a slow-Discord or a more intimate Reddit.

I installed a ton of extensions for people to play Flash games at one point too.

One day I accidentally forgot to pay hosting and the site vanished. Lost it all. Never bothered relaunching.
