At first glance I thought your username was the name for this burger.

Exactly the same take in Canada right now. With the added annexation threats, most Canadians that aren't far right nuts will boycott the american brand for the rest of their lives, tarrifs be damned.

I watched a 3 hour video the other day about how this has killed affordable PC computing in the US, and there's no undoing the damage now. The effect is on a time delay based on the material supply chain and will hit soon.

Thats because for some ungodly reason they use Apple Maps. Not sure why they dont integrat with an OpenStreetMaps like service. At least that way users can start contributing to fill the gaps

Even more unaffordable for an American. They need to have bankroll to survive a year without income and that includes covering possible medical expenses for 3 months. I have friends who have wanted to move here for years and the hurdles are large even with skills and secondary education. Only those with highly in demand educated skills get an easier path.

Engineer your design in FreeCAD and tweak it before you build.

Rural areas without cable get a lot of Fox news stations with strong signals. I remember growing in Leeds-Grenville it was like 1 CBC station vs 3 Fox stations on the antenna.

I've never seen the sensors on mine miss, 2022 vehicle though. In fact my brights sometimes turn off for any red light along the road and reflective signs.

That said, the LED headlights without the brights on are bright enough and people constantly think the brights are on when they are not. I always think about the brights and am at the ready to manually disable them.

The headlights themselves are too bright, and there's no lower lumen off-white options it seems. Just full boar white. It used to be you weren't allowed to install headlights this bright, but then billionaires paid and lobbied for rules to allow a pass if the vehicles rolled off the lot with them, and 20 years later.. here we are. Not even sure the old rule still exists in any form.

Yes, good points. I didn't mean they were exclusive or invented in north america, more that the concept of viewing mayo as a required part of a meat/starch based salad is a very NA perspective.

I agree with most of this but as someone who has to deal with streets filled with cars from small buildings with no dedicated parking, the parking spots makes absolute sense. You cannot just stick a dozen units on a single property and just expect people to find places to park. Parking must be provided.

 

So much food.

 

Title says it all. He sells Scrooge better than any other movie adaptation I've seen.

 

As the title says, I'm curious if they ever named or revisited this Human civilization in the later parts of the timeline in any way? It seems like too good of an opportunity to not revisit it at some point.

My searches did not reveal any answer, so thought I'd ask my fellow trek nerds.

This is the most unfiltered article I've read from The Atlantic... by the time I finished the second paragraph I had to re-read the title to understand how I got here.

Edit: To be clear, this has been revealed as satire, its just so close to reality one could be forgiven for confusing the two.

 

Just had this one shared with me directly on signal and could not find it in here, nor could I find a source. Too good not to share though. If someone knows the meme creator I'll update this with proper credit.

 

Riker came down on a whole other deck and wants answers.
