You say that, but Canada got its name because Jacques Cartier was an idiot who thought the Iroquois word for “settlement” meant “nation”.

We even have a city(now suburb) called Kanata

“hearing about all that stuff makes me uncomfortable, and I personally didn’t do anything wrong”

This is literally the argument.

Moves to cut out the FBI appear to be in line with a pre-election memo drafted by his legal advisers and fits with Trump’s enduring suspicion that the agency is part of what, without evidence, he believes to be a “deep state” machine within the federal government bent on undermining him.

Trump administration does something obviously illegal and unethical

FBI: “Hey, that’s illegal, you can’t do that.”

Trump: “Look at this deep state organization trying to prevent me from doing my job”

Ive played in a few of these. It’s an absolute blast once you get your settings dialed in and balanced to everyone else. If they’re not, then the player in the smallest game tends to have a lot of downtime.

The only downside is that the participants need to be familiar enough with their chosen game to do a randomizer which means roping in casual players is difficult.

Also, there are a massive number of unsupported games that you can play like this that are not part of the main website. https://multiworld.news/apworlds.html

Excel, Active Directory, and to a somewhat lesser degree MSSQL.

Good. This should be forced via regulations. Touchscreen controls are provably more dangerous than buttons due to the distraction.

I suppose this is true. If you somehow don’t feel the difference in your hand or in your mouth, you could swallow it by mistake.

On the flip side, The contents of that plastic container are just silica gel beads made for consumables so it should be mostly inert and pass right through. They say “Do not eat” on the package, but they’re not especially harmful if you do. The biggest risk is an intestinal blockage if you eat too many, but this is not likely to happen with a single mistake

Those don’t need to be mutually exclusive

No, the desiccant is surrounded in hard plastic. You’d realize what it was as soon as you held it

Important note about muddling: you’re just looking to get the mint to release the oils, but not the chlorophyll. Dont beat the hell out of your mint, just press it against the sugar a couple times.

If you press the mint too much, it will give you a bitter herbal flavor that is not desirable.

This would be a double edged sword. Without regulation, the ISP will work in whichever way grants them the most money.

This means that they probably won’t go after copyright claims unless the rightsholders pay them first, but they will ramp up data collection efforts to sell to brokerage firms and will also engage in rate-limiting on high-bandwith use cases like streaming or torrenting unless you pay extra.

“Kamala supports abortion which I really like. Trump says that he supports weed which I really like.”

If only Kamala Harris made some kind of overt promise to legalize marijuana federally.

fun fact: If you ever see any of those quirky “solve this complex equation for the Wifi password” It’s always either the phone number of the place, or the first X digits of Pi.

Just pay your staff a livable wage and get rid of tipping entirely.

The worst possible thing to happen to any series is the fandom taking things too seriously.

Sometimes its okay to have a series of silly movies about space wizards. It doesn’t need to to have any deeper meaning.

Is it because the people that we need to worry about don’t get paid massive wages? Instead they leverage their massive stock ownership as collateral for loans. And stock bonuses are not regulated or taxed in the same way as real wages.

We might not hear about it, but there will definitely be consequences for these people when they’re caught.

“hey what if we made a cartoon entirely about the revenge fantasies of a 12 year old girl?”

“Sounds great, make it papercraft too, just to make it extra unsettling”

Omelette du fromage

I have a soft spot for Bakshi movies but I haven’t seen this one. I will have to check it out.

I think my favorite is Heavy Traffic. It feels like they figured out most of the production problems with Fritz by the time they made it, but still haven’t run entirely out of money like with Wizards.
