The owner has a heart - he bought them heating mats so that they could snooze in another room.

Underground and accessible to stray cats? Sounds super legit

And it cost the owner MILLIONS. Why? Because, you know. There were cats.

If the story is true, I'm guessing this was mistranslated & it could have cost them millions if the cats damaged the equipment. If it really cost them anything, they'd have mentioned what happened.

Probably caused the servers to overheat, or the cats stepping on the power button, and cost millions of Mongolian Tugrik in downtime...

Or it's a shit post ;)

I'm guessing that the accumulated shedding did extensive damage to the equipment AND the owner and/or journalist overstated the damage 🤷

Where else would you go mining than underground?

The streets of Paris?

Oh, you said miNing? My bad!

[–] Amuletta@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well, presumably there are doors and stairwells.

Nope. Those are illegal in Mongolia. Floors too.

That's why Nightwish have never played there.
