Or downtown Brampton on a Friday night.

Nowhere did I claim that Nazism was not a thing. The fact you took that direction and insinuated that I believe otherwise is weird. Most people who resort to calling everything Nazism use the same tactics as you just did and it's why you keep losing the argument.

You lost the argument when you invoked Nazism. Up until then, you were doing great.

Can you honestly look at all those candidates and their accomplishments and claim this is DEI driven? All of them have impressive credentials, although I question why they felt compelled to add the "ultimate frisbee" thing in for the SpaceX person. He's a former LAUNCH DIRECTOR with solid creds. I'm almost positive he's done other great things other than ultimate frisbee.

Regardless, that's an impressive roster.

With what weapons exactly?

Seconded. Just, no.

Unless there's something they're not telling us, having a hostile foreign government (which is probably what's happening) have access to your sensitive data is a bad thing(tm). I'm curious who is going to think this is a bad thing(tm)

I run a very small business as a side hobby designing and making 3D printed parts and stuff. I am exclusively an Anycubic customer - have:

2xKobra 2 Max's
3x Kobra 3 (2 are combo)
2x Kobra 2 Pro.

The only problems I've ran into is the hotend getting gummed up occasionally that requires a tear down and nozzle replacement. And by that, I mean once every 4 months or so. The Kobra 3's are running pretty much non stop. 90% of my prints are PLA, 10% are TPU.

I've been tempted to buy a Bambu because of the rave reviews but honestly, the Anycubics have worked out very well for me and they're half the price - sometimes even better if you get Anycubic deals.

oh man :( I don't mean to be a contrarian but I switched to Edge from Chrome when Chrome went haywire and refused to play YouTube videos. I tried disabling a bunch of privacy addons and also tried Incognito mode but it just wouldn't play. I actually like using Edge. I haven't noticed an increase in performance but it does a better job of blocking ads than plain Chrome.

Also, I kinda prefer Copilot to Grok, Einstein AI, GPT. I've tried all but Copilot is the best one so far. It's not perfect but it does really good for my needs.

"But what are we doing at the same time?"

Well, we're vilifying entrepreneurs and making it as difficult as possible for new ideas to emerge unless they are somehow linked to the latest social justice fad. Have an awesome idea to fix some complicated manufacturing process? Steady on there, first we need you to complete 35 environmental studies and once you're done with that, you have to show how this new capability is going to improve the employment chances of some marginalized group. And then, we're going to tax you to within an inch of your life for the audacity of trying to earn a buck. And if, somehow, you survive all that, we'll slap you with a tariff just to destroy whatever motivation you had left.

It's capitalism, but not as you know it.

Apologies for the doom and gloom nature of this post.

I self-identify as a perpetual 30 year old so I should be fine.

As a Canadian, I can say confidently that I don't care if something is made in Canada or the US. I'm not into the politics of making the average worker suffer. I would not want some worker in a plant in Kentucky to lose their job because I decided that in order to punish the leader of the US, I must make random Americans suffer by not buying the things they need.

I mean really, there are Canadians who live 3,000+ miles from me. Other than a common currency, what do we have in common? For sure I have more in common with an American in the neighboring states (~2 hours away) than I do with some Quebecor (~8 hours away).

For the record, I don't hate Trump nor Musk, nor any other US politician. My own politicians have done worse to me and this country than Trump has.

"It's not our fault we outsourced to the lowest bidder for a critical function of OUR company and didn't QA them on a regular basis!!1!!. You can't expect us to do all of that - we've got more important things to do as an executive leadership team. Things like travelling to golf courses and laying off people so we can get bigger bonuses!"

If there was a Rohrschach, he'd be exploded a long time ago already. See Edward Snowden.
