I had a friend who would say, “I’m tired of your bullshit” and just leave or hangup. A lot of my friends are on the spectrum (if not deep into it), so I’m used to them awkwardly making excuses or just leaving without a word. But this was the first time I saw someone use this quirk for comedic effect.

That’s because overseas vacationers to the US buy their tickets many months ahead of time for deeper discounts and to make sure they can get a hotel room. Give it a couple more months…

For those concerned (or hopeful) about vast hordes of topless Minnesota women roaming the streets: They made boobs legal in Ontario in the mid 90’s and I’ve NEVER seen any women go topless in public. I’m sure it happens, but it’s extremely rare. Heck, most guys still swim in t-shirts up here.

The point of the law in Canada was to make a point that if men and women are to be equal, the law should reflect that. Of course in the US it’s about sex and not equality.

I’ve seen this instruction when adding parts with pre-wired connections. I assumed it was because the wires were stranded and possibly CCA (aluminum) and a smaller diameter than 14-gauge, and so wouldn’t make a reliable connection with a wire nut and too brittle to crimp.

Otherwise I would guess that they’re worried about vibration shaking the connection loose, and the WAGO clamping pressure was determined to be better than the spring in a wire nut. But crimping would be best in this case, so ???

It has nothing to do with training LLMs.

The US government data (each US citizen’s health, tax, etc. records) will be added to the data from Meta, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, and every other tech company that stores “advertising” data to create more complete profiles of each and every US citizen. This data can then be analyzed, filtered, collected and collated by whatever criteria “they” want, for whatever purpose.

NOW the LLMs can be used on this dataset to create lists. Very dangerous (and mostly wrong) lists.

Considering almost all Canadian media is owned by the US and the desperate push for PP by propagandists, I think it turned out about as good as can be expected.

30% of the population are just terrible people who are easily swayed by lies and propaganda (the same as in other countries). The rest are just regular Conservative “I’ve got mine” shitheads.

The solution is to stop the propaganda, not appease the idiots or we’ll end up like the US anyway. Canada already has the laws it just has to enforce them.

We need a wiki where regular people can document and store evidence on the nazis, fascists and enablers currently destroying America. Not just ICE, but everyone. A place where sleuths can unmask and put a name on the worst of them. Where hackers can upload ICE payroll or employee databases. Perhaps even put together an interactive map showing where these people live so their neighbors can be safe.

Once the bastards see their names in print with proof of their crimes out in public perhaps they’ll realize how short their future is. Otherwise it’ll come in handy for the trials.

Not that I can find.

Interesting, I never heard of them. But it looks like they don’t stream torrents and I don’t need storage. It’s also about 10x more expensive. If I wanted to host my own debrid server that looks like a good place to do it.
