Impressive work, however you slice it.

In the show, gems are asexual, non gendered. They just use female pronouns for convenience.

They never really covered reproduction in depth, except that they’re crystals grown in rock substrate. They’re closer to computer than biological.

Bonjour, le biblioteque.

Looseleaf earl grey and 20 years of debian.

I use it all the time. If you need a right angle, 3-4-5 gives you one, and that’s Pythag, baybeee.

Well, whatever’s left after the landlords and care homes take their cut.

Can you call it required if he’ll end up being president anyway?

That’s one way to run Ukraine out of ammunition, I suppose.

Amen. I’ve been making a good buck selling calls on TSLA this last week.

My synology box is 8 years old now and still getting patches. I would actually buy it again. Good work.

There is often very limited table space and stacking the dishes can be more about making room than server convenience.

That said, obviously don’t be dumb about it. Stack dishes properly and maybe stick the utensils in a cup so they aren’t at risk of falling during transport.

Germany was the worldwide leader in science before the Nazis. We may see a shift to Europe or China if science is actively suppressed in the USA.

Only they are allowed to use that word.

They needed a symbol to spray paint on their tanks to easily differentiate them. Z is simple and it’s not a a Cyrillic letter.

They tag some of their military assets with ‘Z’ for battlefield identification

They’ll still have to pay the tariff when crossing the border back to the USA, unless they want to risk smuggling it.

They wouldn’t need to. Soft power would be sufficient to get them nearly everything they want, without risking boots on the ground.

The main risk to us, from a military perspective, is if the USA collapses federally and the states end up fighting amongst each other. The Midwest states will collapse into chaos and feudal fiefdoms, lacking access to trade opportunities (IMO) so border raids there will be the big risk. Actual military occupation might be a concern if the dice rolls the wrong way in the East - Toronto and Quebec are very vulnerable, and sitting on huge reserves of fresh water plus the St. Laurence seaway.

It would be a hell of a thing if Canada ended up with alliances with the southern slaveholding states.

I get the need for them, to pay for shared building services. Strata fees pay for exercise rooms, pools, grounds maintenance, whatever. I 100% am behind them, as long as the Strata council is responsive to needs and not corrupted, but there’s the rub.

I’d generally be happier with few services and low strata fees tho.

Yeah. I’m pretty much resigned to living in our rental until we get renovicted. No kids, double income, a lot of savings… but the mortgage payments would be way more than it’s worth to have a minor upgrade. Strata payments alone are often more than our rent!

Not Vancouver. Nothing that size would go less than 2 million until you hit Coquitlam. MAYBE.
