No way, man! We're gonna keep on rockin' FOREVER! Forever. For....ever...

The problem with per capita CO2 emissions is it isn't a fair representation. Canada has a low population and high resources many of which are exported to other countries that demand those resources. Canada's population is 40 million people, spread around the 2nd largest country in the world. The amount of product we export to other countries make our emissions per capita look like we are just having crude oil fires in our backyards. If we had the population of India, and using the data you provided, Canada's CO2 emissions per person would drop to 1.2t per person, which is almost HALF that of India's per person... yet it is framed that Canadians are at fault here. Furthermore, Canada is a cold climate, unlike India... we don't have a choice in the colder months, we have to create emissions to heat our homes in order to survive the winter. If we had a warm climate, (which we are heading towards) our emissions would drop even further, so India can fuck right off.

I guess Canada could just cut out those other countries (like India) and only use what we need and our emissions would drop drastically. Much of that oil is exported and the average Canadian doesn't have anything to do with it.

I don't know about where you live, but in Canada almost every news article is rage inducing click bait. In the last couple years I have reduced the amount of news I consume because I always ended up feeling worse after reading it.

Paint it Black is a song by The Rolling Stones, not the Doors.

The "ugly sweater" trend jumped the shark about 10 years ago. It was funny originally when the person who wore it had no clue and honestly thought it was a cool fashion statement. Now the ugly sweater has become a parody of what it once was. The ugly sweater does do one thing in 2023, it highlights ugly people in society who completely lack any kind of independent thought and follow the crowd like mindless sheep. I think they usually calls themselves "influencers" on social media.

According to Wikipedia, Manhattan is 22.83 square miles. So the berg is 65.7 standard Manhattans.

The Buddy Holly music video was found on the Windows 95 disc. The article is referring to Windows 1.0 turning 40. Windows 95, released some 10 years later and was approx version 3.75 of Windows.

I'm tired of these announcements of games that won't be released for years. Shut up and go develop the game. Only let the public know about it when it is ready to release. The only thing these early announcements do is dump pressure on to developers. Forcing the development team to meet deadlines that are already too short for what has been promised. Early announcements also allow more time for Sales and PR to push a whole bunch of BS hype which pushes the expectations for the game into the stratosphere (Eg. Cyberpunk) with little to no hope of meeting. So the game ends up being rushed out the door in a broken state. It's just a shitty way to market a game for everybody.

Taken from the link you posted:

So he wasn't exactly thin, led a stressful life, was a smoker and was genetically predisposed to heart problems as his father also died of a heart attack. Running may have even helped prolonged his short life. I think it is a stretch to say exercise doesn't work because one jogger died of a heart attack.

Okay Nestle, how about putting your money where your mouth is and lead the way. I think they can start by banning all those environmentally unfriendly business practices. Then ensuring that their entire distribution network will only use green energy. Then, banning the use of all harmful plastics in their packaging, and finally by only producing carbon neutral products. But for some reason, I doubt that Nestle and others would be willing to do that. Big surprise... So, until then anything Nestle and other corporations say about climate change is nothing but virtue signaling bullshit.

This feature was removed? Mind you, I am running a Google Pixel 3a, which isn't ancient, but not brand new either...but I still use this feature daily.

Can't wait to receive an email summary of a meeting like this:

• 10:01am: Larry asks if anybody would like some coffee, he just made a fresh pot
• 10:05am: Karen goes on full on rant how her computer hasn't been working for over a month. When asked if she reported it to IT, she said "she didn't know she had to do that."
• 10:15am: Sales rep Brad, tells collegues about his weekend escapades on Tinder.
• 10:20am: Team lead arrives to meeting, 20 minutes late
• 10:22am: Team lead asks if everybody received the email that details what the meeting will be about.
• 10:25am: Multiple team members start asking questions that should have been left for 1-on-1 meetings, verses wasting the entire team's time.
• 10:58am: Meeting ends. Another meeting has been scheduled for same time next week to discuss previous meeting.

Why is with Google I only hear about something AFTER it has been cancelled? I swear Google Execs come up with these ideas, release them into the wild but fail to tell anybody about it. Then they cancel this same idea 6 months later because nobody uses it. Maybe the product isn't the problem Google, but the lack of marketing/awareness. I work in IT and I have had multiple generations of Google phones, going all the way back to the Nexus S days. You think if anybody knew of the "Pixel pass" it would have been people like me. But nope... So no wonder it failed Google, you forgot to tell anybody it was available.

Shit...

Google Maps has offline mode functionality where you can download a section of map for use when you don't have a signal, it's been available for years. I use it all the time. The offline map will expire after a set period of time, usually 90 days I believe.
