Aren't the Guinea Pigs bred for food quite a bit larger then the pets?

Both, it's the secret to his success.

Trump sure freaked out when cutting power to the States was brought up by Ontario. Unluckily with America close to a magnitude larger population wise, we're a lot more dependent on them then they are on us. As good as full economic war sounds, we're outnumbered.

Alberta is sorta like Texas, but stupider. They traditionally don't believe in interconnects and have mostly banned new renewable builds as it blocks the view of all the abandoned oil wells. BC of course has lots of its own hydro and wants to interconnect to Alberta, who has already built a lot of renewables. Hydro + wind + solar works well together.
We also need interconnects north, BC to the Yukon and Alberta to the NWT, lots of mines planned up there that need cheap power.

Do you really think that private would do better? Yes, they would extract more profits, shareholders would be happy and there wouldn't be any of that expensive maintenance creating even more short term profit. They could also increase prices easier then the government as their only responsibility is to their shareholders, no pesky voters to worry about.

And California, and not much to Alberta due to lack of stable interconnects. Unluckily, due to drought, lately BC has been a net importer. Still profitable as we import cheap power and export expensive power, based on the time.
Alberta is finally talking about fixing the interconnects, which would be good. We have lots of hydro, they have lots of renewables, so complement each other.
Canada really needs east to west interconnects, as well as some to the NWT and the Yukon. Lots of planned mines up there that need power.

Huh? Usually you just tell the bear to fuck off and they do. They're as scared of us as we are of them.

Not, what do you do with a system with no visible file system where the touch interface is the least of the problem.

The Apple II was a completely different computer from the Mac. Generally running Apple II software on the Mac didn't work, though there was an Apple //E card at one point that ran Apple II software on the Mac and by the end, the Apple //GS looked and acted much like a Mac, only in colour, software was not compatible, though data files were along with floppies.
Meanwhile with every CPU transition on the Mac, you could keep using your software, seamlessly.
They did both move to different versions of their respective CPU's and some software broke when the Mac moved to the 68020 (24 bit to 32 bit addressing) due to abusing the platform (keeping data in the upper 8 bits of pointers).

It's not hard to move files around with a touch interface, at least on Android. With the file manager I use, there's 2 panes, source and destination. You navigate the file system in both panes, click a checkbox on the files or directories you want to move and press copy, which has a tick box to delete the originals if you choose making it a move option. One pane can also be ftp (it has a ftpd server), a Samba share or the file system on the USB stick (FAT32) you plugged in, as well as stuff like Google Drive and Webdav. Not having root access limits you to directories you have permission on, of which there are a few.
A little harder with the stock file manager where you navigate to the files you want to copy, copy to the clipboard, navigate to the destination and press paste, then navigate to the original and delete. USB stick also shows up as a device you can navigate and do the same steps.

Where does it say that?

They have elections. Russia sees Putin win with over whelming majorities and Iran has voted in some decent Presidents but the Supreme leader is not elected and is all powerful.
Not as good as America where you have the choice of Pepsi or Coke.

If you look at the history of the appointed Senate, there were a few problems.
Patronage, where appointments were made as favours rather then ability, which was taken to the limit of rewards for large donations. Rather the the Senator from such and such State, it was the Senator from such and such railroad. Today you would have Senators representing Meta, MS, Amazon and Musk, or whoever won the bidding. The opposite of taking the money out of it.
The other problem was often Senate seats remained empty due to politics in the various States. That was why it was changed to direct election and was considered enough of a problem that the Amendment passed.

No, it's like saying blue eyes aren't treatable. Sure you can poke them out or wear contacts just like an autistic person can learn to act more socially and improve their coordination with practice but no amount of practice will fix invertigo and there is a limit to fixing coordination. For some, no amount of practice will turn them into a professional sports player or musician.
Anyways, for me, it is age that has made me hate the time change, not autism as when I was young, it wasn't a problem.

No, it doesn't mean you're fascist, but you do seem to like flirting with authoritarianism, of which fascism seems to be favourite for advanced nations.
