Pretty sure Chancellor McCormick’s first name is Kathaleen, not Kathleen.

One of the few occasions that being a Shaw customer is an advantage. My day has been completely normal.

 What that’s saying is that the underlying flaw can be fixed, but only in a new hardware generation. Anything M1 processor that’s already been produced is going to be subject to the problem for its entire lifespan. M2 might not be and hopefully whatever is designed after definitely won’t be.

Most jurisdictions have an actual 511 website with imagery as well. I used to run the actual data collection system in Alberta and there are 150+ weather stations on the highways here with images taken every 20 minutes. About half of them even have IR cameras and illuminators.

It’s not actually implausible. Amazon only sells ebooks in the Netherlands and the market there is heavily dominated by Bol, CoolBlue, and Marktplaats (for used goods). It’s pretty easy to order stuff from Amazon in Germany or France, but that doesn’t mean this kid has done it.

Well Tbilisi is pretty nice. Ambrolauri was... less fun from my point of view.

Didn’t they follow up the Stana Katic announcement by saying that Nathan Fillion wasn’t returning either and then apparently figured out that not having either of the two leads kind of meant the show was over?

I was at an airport in France that didn’t allow check-in until about 45 minutes before the flight. Then again, Montpellier isn’t exactly a busy place.

I got away with a 50 lb bike bag last year. They didn’t even weigh it.

Both of you make me feel better. I was starting to think I was the only person that actually enjoyed the first season.

Umm... that’s not why it’s a problem environmentally. Your linked article says roughly 20% of online orders are returned and that doing so increases the carbon footprint. Ordering multiples that you know you’re going to return guarantees that percentage goes up and absolutely increases the footprint.

Do you guys really feel that publishing something like this is ethically consistent with your stated position on climate change?

On the personally upsetting side, I was in a German airport to upgrade their AWOS. I was in the control tower watching as an aircraft took off and went home shortly after. Went back a month later and the same controller was on duty. He told me that particular plane had crashed shortly before landing and killed all 3…

Travelling from rural Georgia back to Amsterdam was fun. Took a marshrutka from where I was in Ambrolauri to Kutaisi and then to the train station in Tbilisi. Wasn’t paying enough attention, so I then ended up in the sketchiest unlicensed cab you’ve ever seen and the bastard still charged me the equivalent of 15 EUR.…

I believe one of them was. That was dumb even by homeopathic standards.

Between this and the naturopaths that were claiming there was a homeopathic cure for autism, I’m really starting to wonder about the BC health system.

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen for me. I was 4 when I saw it and it freaked me out pretty badly. Big Trouble in Little China around the same time didn’t help.

We’ll just leave this here.

Yeah, the joke’s funnier when you don’t explain it.

Look, up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a joke!
