Aeluroidea was named by Flower (1869). It was assigned to Carnivora by Flower (1883) and Carroll (1988); and to Feliformia by Bryant (1991).[2][3][4]
gollark: By CC standards, it's an OS, and arguably a good one, due to the lack of convoluted messes common in them.
gollark: Install by putting that in startup.lua.
gollark: Following the continuing trend towards "micro*" (see: microservices), I give you MicrOS!```term.clear()term.setCursorPos(1, 1)term.setTextColor(colors.blue)print "Welcome to MicrOS."```
gollark: I think cloud made this "Vorbani" thing with actual OSey features like multi-user support and file permissions, but this is... probably not that.
gollark: Also, "OS" is wrong 99% of the time in CC, sooo...
