The mere fact this technology exists gives legislators a tool in their toolbox. I could imagine a future where the EU mandates use of PPA in certain circumstances.

To be fair, I also put most of the hot dogs I buy across the street in the fridge too.

It's a conundrum for sure

Aww, lay off Jonathan. He's a pioneer for gay rights, which is much more than can be said for any of you lot.

Due to his advanced age, Jonathan spends his days doing almost everything with his mate, including eating, sleeping and mating... The sex of Frederica, ... his companion since 1991, was cast into doubt in 2017 when island veterinarian Catherine Man indicated that due to a deformity of its plastron its sex could not be verified,[4] and is now known to be male, being renamed Frederik.

Yes I understand. It works spelled that way. But "no pun intended" doesn't work because there was no pun in the initial setup. In my version both meanings make sense

I always thought that joke needs an actual pun in the first half so the "no pun intended" has a valid double meaning. I came up with:

I told the sad ghost ten puns to raise its spirits. No pun intendid.

This is incredible. Truly hats off to the folks at Astral. Can't wait to try all this out and replace all our old bespoke tooling.

I wouldn't recommend talking to your cat about Satanism. The best bet is to just hope they never find out about it.

Lol it's definitely a jab at America (says a Canadian)

I think I've listened to every Canadaland episode since like 2016 or so, and I've yet to hear him say anything even remotely approaching what people accuse him of.

That said I don't follow his X account or anything.

Funny you mention Ladybird.. It's a commendable project and I hope they succeed. But until it renders 99% of websites, plays Netflix videos, has all the modern features people expect of a web browser and is an actual viable option for non techies.. It is really proving the opposite of your point. The fact that an alpha is still years away speaks to how hard this really is.
