Hi Boris!

[–] jupyter_rain@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He looks like a music enjoyer.

He's a she!

Hello Boris! Immaculate lounging you're doing there.

I know this might come as a shock to you, but:

image classifier says, cat is 97% Armin Laschet, only 3% Boris Pistorius

I am very confused

[–] Speiser0@feddit.org 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Armin Laschet and Boris Pistorius are two german politicans who look very similar. So someone made an image classifier to distinguish them. I threw your cat ("Boris", according to you) into it. :3

[–] Punchshark@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ahhh! It all makes sense now!

[–] NewDay@feddit.org 3 points 1 year ago

Armin Laschet almost became the German Chancellor, but he missed it due to 1-2% and Boris Pistorius is the current German minister for defence and he is also the most popular German politician at the moment.

What's Boris hanging out on top of? I'm intrigued ~~but~~ by the shape lol

Also, love a girl cat with a classically male name. I had a roommate with a fat orange cat named Leroy. Leroy was a girl 😁 (Leroy was also a big sassbutt.)

It's a roll out Thai mat. Great for laying on the ground! Of course she claims it once I finally get one!
