Just how secure is Tor Browser? I use it a lot unless I need a fast browser, or something breaks with Tor. This forum works great with it, at least, so do many other forums I am in.
In my experience CAPTCHAs are a PITA to get past with Tor.
why?
The CAPTCHA takes like 10 correct attempts before it lets you through. Most of the time it acts like you didn't pass it.

Just using a VPN, google owned sites ask for a captcha almost every time and usually takes 3 or 4 attempts with normal browsers.

Why don't cats (even outdoor cats) smell bad, like dogs?

Their fur has a sorta comforting smell, like blankets.

They do, it just is not an offensive odor.  (normally.)

Dogs secrete some strong smelling biomarkers through their sebaceous skin glands, because they are a strongly olfactory-based social animal. Humans are more visually-based social animals, and cats are descended from mostly non-social, solitary animals.

Basically, humans have an alternative system for individual identification that does not use olfaction, and cats never evolved unique biomarkers on their personages in that capacity to begin with, because their ancestors were solitary, only interacting at breeding season. (Cats DO have skin scent glands in their cheeks, but it serves a different function; It is used to identify property/territorial marking.)

Cuz they spend 90% of their waking day grooming themselves.

And also because they don't communicate as much/in the same way through smells probably? God knows the kind of communication they do do through smell stinks like nothing else.



I thought of a question earlier today at work, but I've forgotten it. Anyone of you know what it was?

You must mean urine scent marking, and anal scent marking.

Yes. Nasty. Gross. Bad kitty.

I always thought dogs smelt bad because they rolled around in their own shit.

My dog, rest his soul, never rolled in his own shit. Other dogs' shit, carcasses, mystery liquids, and things invisible to human eye - sure. But never his own shit.

My brother’s dog used to eat other dogs’ poop.

Then one time he puked it up, and I am happy to not have experienced the smell.

Antisocial yet fixated on property. Are cats ancaps by nature? :thinking:
