  • I was unhappy that Dougie decided to spend our tax dollars on ads in the US, but now I'm upset he's pulling them. Are we getting a refund for the ad slots we didn't use?

  • logarithme naturel or logarithme népérien in French

  • "The uploader has not made this video available in your country" -- fuck you Paramount, but OK, I have VPN.

    I'll give it a shot. I just pray that other than a few characters in common, it won't have anything to do with Discovery.

  • The Cold War came after World War II...

  • No fucking thanks indeed.

  • Vaultwarden isn't actually susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks, since the passwords are encrypted and decrypted on the end device. But some relevant metadata do go over the connection so it'd better have TLS.

  • I think your meant BlueTooþ

  • They haven't really been doing door to door deliveries anyway.

  • She probably asked for it given her background and experience, and this a promotion of sorts from transport minister.

  • I didn't get the music analogy but I agree with you that "dumb shit" can apply to a large part of this season.

  • Hope so! Season 3 wasn't the worst thing ever but not really good or memorable.

  • You are thinking it over way more than the writers did. This hole-ridden plot is just there to justify the action scenes. But I think it's implied that Batel left the messages. Why were they vague and in those other languages? Just because!!

  • 2/10

    Worse sequel to the season's so-far worst episode.

    Felt like the writers were like "wouldn't it be cool if we do this... and that... and this again..."

    "science so advanced it might as well be magic": yeah, pretty much, this was more of a D&D campaign (bad one) than a good sci-fi episode. Even the silly Prophets / Pah-wraiths arc of DS9 was preferable to this.

  • I've never been to Costco! I shop basically exclusively local in Downtown Toronto, but I recognize it's a privilege to have that option being so convenient.

  • They just scared her off

  • Good article.

    The answer is capitalism and authoritarianism.

  • Thanks! I had no idea about it. Submitting the claim was quite straightforward.

  • Very sad state. Maybe hope lies in emulation? What I want ideally for my phone is for it to run a Linux-type desktop OS, and have light VMs (if containers won't do) running fully locked garbage Android systems for those apps that require them.

    As an exclusive Linux user since the early 2000s I remember well the days programs were unavailable and website only supported Internet Explorer. Wine and virtualization remedied much of that pain.

  • Right? 😂
