Yes, although if one is buying used, then you're likely already avoiding digital purchases through this online service. So just keep buying used. Pretty easy workaround.

Your examples disagree with your initial statement actually. How did you get the log? How did you carve the figure? Both of these require energy consumption, as we aren't at the stage where we are magically planting trees and teleporti

Just to be clear, this isn't brick on a whim, this is disabling access to online services on a whim. Seems a lot of commenters are getting that confused due to not opening the link.

Alberta does not pay for the welfare of Canadians in other provinces, it has never paid towards any equalization systems. It has taken billions in debt though, including during COVID when oil flatlined. The reason Danielle et al were cozyin

That's not at all similar. We know exactly how many voted for Bernie. The only actual test of separatism in albert has been support for the pension plan and that has been so abysmal they've put the entire push on hold.

There is no Alberta Pension Plan that exists today. All provinces also already run their own police forces. So there has been no movement on this in Alberta.

I heavily disagree with this one. On first glance what you say feels true, but there are so many mega popular people now that you will never know of despite even being from the same country. People with dozens of millions of fans, selling o

I'm surprised you made the switch to liquid and not to powder. It's so much cheaper and not as fussy as liquid. That plus a tiny bottle of rinse aid that lasts forever winds up giving me the cleanest dishes.

There is no research that states such. Most online articles are referencing a study done on professional dishwashers, in which they complete their task within 2 minutes and some rinse aid was still found on the dishes. Home dishwashers, the

That's exactly how a digital ID system would work, and yet people argue against those all the time as well. Additionally, the corner shop does not have far lower data privacy risks - actually it's quite worse. They have you on cam

For their pricing and subscription practices alone, they deserve far more backlash than they get.

There is a cost burden to not being 100% correct when it comes to programming. You simply have chosen to ignore that burden, but it still exists for others. Whether it's for example a percent of your users now getting stalled pages due

Your use case is in fact in the top whatever percentile for AI usefulness. Short simple scripting that won't have to be relied on due to never being widely deployed. No large codebase it has to comb through, no need for thorough mainte

I wouldn’t go that far to say that they have fantastic interfaces. Tolerable? Better than what free options existed at the time? Either way, there is a lot of room for improvement but it’s also an extremely challenging environment to get in

More like having a series of fake doors and rooms built out in front of your home, with most of them leading back outside and not into the home.

Each one of those “independent” points that can potentially fail is just added dependencies that increases inefficiency due do increased oversight, adds more red tape, and slows down production.

VIA can't do much for INTRA city travel. For Ontario it's on Metrolinx and for Toronto TTC. Just in November TTC got roughly $750m in fed funding for subway cars especially for Line 2 cars that are reaching EOL, but also for the e

Very specific rules that minimize the use of negations is more applicable. This is also kind of why chain of thought in LLMs can be useful, in that you can more explicitly see the steps and take note when negation demands aren't being

Physiognomy is a pseudoscience that often makes big waves in pop science, but its studies are lacking substantially even evolutionary psychologists don't take it seriously.

On the bright side, when your mini dies, there will likely be better flips out there. The Z Flip 6 isn't that bad currently, and I really did enjoy how much pocket space it saved, but if you're stuck to Apple it's another 2 y

It's been interesting to see the largest constitutional crisis the US has seen in 50+ years intersecting with massive social media operations. Turns out, all Richard Nixon had to do was call the constitution "woke".
