- Comment on In the US, is this actually the moment past the point of no return? 1 day ago:
You should read your own link, because it also mentions that by the end of his term, most disapproved
Uli clearly stated “at first”.

It was viewed as illegitimate inside the US too.
Something like 65% of the population approved of it at first. Meanwhile there were protests in the millions of people around the world against it.

Yeah no, I’m gonna disagree. Being outside of the US at the time, most people did think that. And yes, obviously I’m talking about Jr since Sr didn’t get re-elected. 9/11 was a full three years before the election of his second term.

Remember when the entire world was convinced there was absolutely no way Bush, an idiot, could get re-elected?

- Comment on Did the concept of 9-5 included a 30 minute lunch and two 15 minute breaks? 5 weeks ago:
In Canada full time is 40h, not 35. In Quebec an employer isn’t required to give 15mins break. But if they do they must be paid. The 30mins lunch break is mandatory, but also unpaid. You’ve just gotten lucky with decent employers/union jobs. I’d imagine other provinces are similar.

An employer is under no obligation to offer breaks but when a break is granted, it must be paid and be included in the calculation of the hours worked.
After 5 consecutive hours of work, a worker is entitled to a 30-minute meal break, without pay. If the worker is required to remain at their workstation during this time, their meal break must be paid.

Take two wireless access points, connect them together, tada, you have an internet…
The thing is “the internet” is really only the sum of its parts, it’s interconnectivity is what gives its intrinsic value.

As many as 75 of the destroyed cars apparently were destroyed by Israel. A hyperbole, maybe, outright false, maybe not so much.
- Comment on Bro almost lost his job 😭 2 months ago:
Actually dude’s English language was an amazing polyglot. Tony from LC Signs is just a master of accent and he can switch from one to the next in an instant. Really impressive. He’s like a big star on Instagram (and probably tiktok?), sometimes LC Sign runs someone else do a bit and everyone complains that they want Tony back.

Didn’t he initially have a mainstream tv show with writers researchers etc that got cancelled because he refused to follow the party lines?

- Comment on Why did Hamas choose Oct 7 to strike? Instead of say another day? 2 months ago:
there was a music festival in an isolated location.
All evidence point to Hamas not being aware there was a music festival going on. Their original targets were police stations, barracks, and potentially the kibbutz.

For what it’s worth, there’s decent evidence that rosemary oil works just as well as Minoxidil. It’s certainly a WHOLE LOT cheaper…
- Comment on How does renouncing citizenship work? 3 months ago:
Hmmmm what? The USA absolutely allows dual citizenship.
U.S. law does not impede its citizens’ acquisition of foreign citizenship whether by birth, descent, naturalization or other form of acquisition, by imposing requirements of permission from U.S. courts or any governmental agency.
[…]
U.S. law does not require a U.S. citizen to choose between U.S. citizenship and another (foreign) nationality (or nationalities). A U.S. citizen may naturalize in a foreign state without any risk to their U.S. citizenship.
U.S. dual nationals owe allegiance to both the United States and the foreign country (or countries, if they are nationals of more than one). They are required to obey the laws of both countries, and either country has the right to enforce its laws.
- Comment on Knife vs. Gun Control? 3 months ago:
Unless there’s some provincial law, RCMP was fucking with you. There is no length law.
What is the maximum blades size one is allowed to carry in Canada?
There is no specific blade size restriction for carry in Canadian law. However, the larger the size of the blade, the more difficult it would be to identify it as a tool for everyday use. For example; if you are hunting, then a large fixed blade knife on your side is generally acceptable. However, carrying the same large fixed blade knife on your side while walking downtown in a major city would be a different matter. If you have specific questions, please contact your local law enforcement agency

The only reference to knives in the criminal code concerns so called automatic knives:
laws.justice.gc.ca/Search/Search.aspx?txtS3archA1…
There is no law banning the carrying in public knives with sheaths, knives that take both hands to open and any knife with a fixed blade and certain non-prohibited folding knives, assuming they are not carried for a purpose dangerous to public peace or for the purpose of committing a criminal offense.

What Size Knife Is Legal To Carry In Canada?
In Canada there’s no specified blade length that makes it legal or not. The knife’s legality is determined by the purpose of carrying the knife and its design.

Fair
- Comment on Knife vs. Gun Control? 3 months ago:
Yeah you’re right, that is one limitation. The rational is that it has no purpose other than being a weapon.

- Comment on Knife vs. Gun Control? 3 months ago:
The corrolary is that there’s essentially no knife control in Canada. There’s no length limit or anything. The law just states that you can’t carry a weapon. But if you have a reasonable reason to be carrying a machete (like going bushwacking) you’re good.

Permethrin clothing. Works fucking amazing. I have a jumpsuit treaded with it, kills ticks, mosquitoes, black flies. Not just repel but kill on contact!

No the data doesn’t, otherwise Kansas would be on that list too, but it isn’t. While what you say might be true, it doesn’t seem to have a significant impact on the ranking.
