If you're a bad person we'll reconstruct an identical clone of you and imprison it as your punishment.
And any clones of me would not have my memories as those aren't genetic, so why are you going to torcher an inoccent person?
Also not at all on topic.
How do you do screen sharing with HTML and JavaScript? Yeah, thought so.
I would suppose that one could build a api to do so on top of X11 or Wayland if you really wanted to but if you are going to do that why not use protcol built to do that
You tried to annex Canada in 1814, so we beat the crap out of you and burned down the Whitehouse.
Unfortunately due to commitments defeating Napoleon at the time, we couldn't commit enough resources to take back our American colonies so we settled on leaving the borders where they were before you invaded British territory.
Wrong.
The British tried to enforce trade restriction on the United States with trade with a verity of European countries and were boarding American merchant ships and pressing their sailors into service in the British navy against their will, at the same time they were funding and supplying native tribes to fight again American expansion westward. So the United States declared war on the British Empire.
Additionally the United States never seriously tried to take Canadian territory they sent a token force of untrained militia Under the command of William Hull to keep the British troops in Canada out of the way.
And it wasn't the Canadians the burned the Whitehouse it was British troops that came down out of Canada.
Is Greenland not a country anymore?
It's never been a country. It's a territory of Denmark. On top of that, it doesn't border Canada since it's an island.
wrong.
Greenland is an autonomous country within the Kingdom of Denmark, located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Though physiographically a part of the continent of North America

Ha! Yeah, well, Canada is just as huge and is only bordered by ONE country. And they use metric.
Is Greenland not a country anymore? They do share some boarder, no one lives near it but they do share it.
I'm reminded of one time back in high school when we were discussing a poem by Margaret Atwood. The English teacher mentioned as an aside, "who knows where Margaret Atwood is from," thinking it would be a good segue. Silence. "I'll give you a hint: she's writing in her native language."
"American?"
- "No."
"British?"
- "No."
"Australian"
- "No." There was another pregnant silence and before I could hazard a guess on New Zealand, he gave up and said, "Canada! Margaret Atwood is perhaps the most famous Canadian poet!"
So help me, my thought at the time was actually, "Ohhh. Canada... they exist too."
The point of the story is, just because you speak English doesn't make it any more likely we'll remember that your country exists. Sorry, Canada. If it helps at all I'm in Texas, so you're not exactly foremost in our thoughts.
To many Americans Canada isn't so much a country as it is a slightly more independent territory or protectorate that we forgot to annex and declare a state. Or they think of it as A part neglected part of Great Brittan that England chooses to ignore (kind of like scottland but farther way and with less invested in it) a or a colony of maple syrup fetishists that no one wants to claim. I say that as a Canadian-American duel citizen.
Also (No offense intended but) I am surprised that you thought of New Zealand at all. Most people either think it as "middle earth" or of it simply as "the one that is not Australia".
of course not he traveled to the future to post it in the first place

I've always advocated and always ask for a manual pat-down and bag search. This takes 1-2 people about 5-7 minutes to do this, especially if you have baby/foot powder which will require drug testing. If you want to make it interesting for the screener, include a couple of "very" adult magazines (Playboy doesn't cut it) in the bag with the powders, it is very comical.
If 5% of the population did this the entire system would grind to a halt.
If we really wanted to get rid of the security theatre what we would do is organize people doing this when its known that senators will be flying from the same airport make it grind to a halt all day for a handful of senators and congressman when they are headed home for a long weekend or on the campaign trail and just watch the rules change.

I hate those people and their giant binders of coupons. Why? Because if you get stuck behind one in line, they double or triple the wait time.
As someone who has had to work a register with those assholes so do we the cashiers, especialy when they try to argue with your managers for 15 minutes about store policy and combined coupons tying up lines.
Suggest you just sit there and wait till life gets easier.
