The article doesn’t mention it, but there’s a “Made in the EU” labeling phenomenon happening that makes me worried about Canadian and Mexican products getting thrown out with the American bathwater here. The point shouldn’t be to fight nationalism with more nationalism. It should be to fight nationalism with good globalism.
Political extremists aren’t always the best at differentiating between correlation and causation. Let’s see how this plays out.
Am I old if I read BTRFS as butterface?
Do those things have the same Return On Investment?
Some times you’ve got to spend money to make money.
No way.
I received opiates after abdominal surgery only after I explained why my pain level was only stated as a 3 or 4 out of 10, if 10 was “The worse pain [I] could possibly imagine.”
2/10 is manageable temporarily but not chronically.
3/10 was the limit where I could hide it. It requires a lot of energy to maintain composure.
4/10 was where movement was restricted.
I can’t quite remember what five and six were.
7/10 means I can’t form complete sentences uninterrupted.
8/10 means I have mostly lost the ability to communicate and I begin to hallucinate.
9/10 means I am unable to understand where I am or what’s happening to me. It’s around this point where I have blacked out.
Never ask someone with a healthy imagination to work on a scale where the limit is the worst they can imagine. Besides, is the scale linear or logarithmic?
Consumer protections and laws against engineered obsolescence? Yes, please!
Some background for the unfamiliar:
“OP” is the abbreviation for “Ordo Prædicatorum”, or “Order of Preachers” in English, aka the Dominicans.
Saint Dominic is the founder of their order.
Thank you for looking at what I wrote and seeing humour rather than malice.
Your tea bag…
No, it’s not, because I use something other than tea bags.
That’s you. That’s what you wrote.
Awesome. On a similar note, there is a time of the day at a certain part of the year when our TV seems to receive random remote control button pushes. I know it’s solar infrared but hadn’t considered it may be a reflection instead of direct radiation.
I’m having difficulty understanding your post but you’re on the right track with Active PFC causing issues with UPSs.
Catholics: Hungover and dutifully celebrating Mass.
Ditto for the Y6239 problem for what must be a dozen of pieces of software that use the hebrew calendar, when it switches to five digit years.
Do museums actually do that?
Exactly. The baddies are called ‘terrorists’. The term the media uses to describe good terrorists is ‘rebels’ and sometimes ‘freedom fighters’.
Oh, it’s real. This was offered for my sister-in-law.
What I’m reading here is that there’s a correlation between incomes which can afford bottled water and higher IQs which could be a result of any number of systemic factors.
I can be worried about more than one thing.
I get what you said in the unquoted part, but maybe it’s just me. Buy Canadian is less rational than pointing out from whom not to buy, on account of how nationalistic it sounds. At the risk of sounding all slippery-slope about it, I don’t want to go down the road of nationalism.
