  • Without looking into this specific outage, I'd suggest things like deferred maintenance and "cost optimizing" technical staffing are often contributing factors. (At least in my experience)

  • especially when the show or movie could wildly diverge from the source.

    Which is very relevant in this case.

  • Depends where on reddit. There are still plenty of left leaning spaces over there.

  • My robot vac will only operate when connected to the Internet

    That would trigger me to return it to the store. "It doesn't work"

  • There are games of the WC tournament scheduled in Canada and Mexico.

    No need to risk a surprise one way trip to alligator auchwitz just to watch a couple of matches.

  • It's not the immigrants/TFWs, it never was, it never will be.

    Nobody here is blaming the immigrants.

    It's the abusive bosses who are using (and abusing) TFWs to suppress wages who are at fault.

  • Importing wage slaves.

  • Costco is doing the correct thing.

    It's the right(wing) who are wrong.

  • Too many eyes

    And not enough brains.

  • or to run to the media

    Frustratingly, the US media is owned by a small concentration of wealthy people who are being further enriched by Trump's bullshit.

  • Newfoundland and Labrador is the province involved.

    Had to read far too deep into the poorly written article to find that important bit of context.

  • It's a short ferry ride from Newfoundland to France.

  • They moved some of their bottling to the US.

    The whiskey is still brewed, distilled and aged in Gimli, Manitoba (using Canadian grown grain).

    And the bottles sold in Canada are still bottled in Quebec.

    It's the bottles that are sold internationally that are being filled in the US plant now.

    .

    Still, definately a less than ideal situation, but not as catastrophic as some people are claiming.

  • It's made in Gimli Manitoba and bottled in Quebec (and until recently also in Ontario, but that bottling plant was closed and the capacity moved to one of Diego's plants in the US.

    It is still made in Manitoba, and still uses Canadian grown grain. And the bottles sold in Canada are still bottled in Quebec.

  • Users will receive automatic pro-rated refunds for active subscriptions, and the app code is promised to be open-sourced after shutdown.

    That's the correct way to wind down a cloud based subscription app.

    Not that I'm in favor of the entire business model of cloud based subscription apps, but at least Marques is ending this one the right way.

  • One stated he “lacks the requisite knowledg

    That on its own is enough to disqualify him.

    But, it seems lacking knowledge or understanding is a pre-requisite for being appointed by Trump.It's the only wat Trump can pretend he is the smartest person in the room.

  • Yes carbon capture is a weak effort, but getting Alberta to agree to that is still more of a win than I expected.

  • They just don't have content good enough to justify full price.

    That was the primary reason why I cancelled after the first year I subscribed.

  • As the old saying goes "a lie can be halfway around the world before the truth gets out of bed"

    They have an uphill battle on their hands.
