Me too, so I looked it up:
There's six with vitamins, minerals and water. And dietary fibre too, but it's not an essential nutrient.
> The problem is that as this happen and progress, we will be bind by legal agreement to supply this province or that state
In other words, for now there isn't as you said a need to "lurk back to Ontario and the USA and cry for energy that we need to buy back at crazy rate" and currently HQ is still making a large profit overall from it's sales and purchases of power from outside the province.
> and we will be fucked
That doesn't seem to be the case. The current reduction of power exports is because of below average precipitation in recent years, but they aren't expected to stay low and climate change models expect at least an overall small rise in average precipitations.

From the following link, Quebec has only recently (~2024 / 2025) started to buy more power from outside than it's sold, and it looks like it's done so at a good profit:
"Hydro-Québec is now buying more power from outside the province than it’s exporting, a significant reversal from years past caused by a drop in its northern water reservoirs at a time of surging demand. The utility, Canada’s biggest producer of electricity, purchased about 10 terawatt-hours of power at a price of 5 cents a kilowatt-hour for the first nine months of the year, according to its latest quarterly report published Friday. It sold about 8 twh at 15 cents a kwh over the same time outside Quebec."

"Water cycles are unpredictable. After an eight-year period of high water inflows from 2013 to 2021, volumes in Hydro-Québec reservoirs have since decreased to below average levels, according to Pierre-Olivier Pineau, an energy specialist at Montreal’s HEC business school.
"It’s not surprising and we should not be alarmed,” Mr. Pineau said in an interview. “Markets and interconnections are there to balance supply and demand.”
"The sheer size of Hydro-Québec’s system and its storage capacity give the power producer flexibility in handling its reserves, exporting electricity when prices are high and importing when they’re low, Mr. Aucoin said. The company has generated more than $600-million in profit this way since January, part of the $2.83-billion in net income it reported for the first nine months of the year."

If I'm following the debate, it could work pretty well for Android and Apple phones, but on PCs a teenager could declare themselves an adult by reinstalling the OS or by installing a VM.
In other words, most minors probably couldn't impersonate an adult and the number of those that could would approach zero the younger they are.
> Both the article from mozilla [mozilla.org] and anthropic [anthropic.com] doesn't mention anything about a "test version of the browser", instead it specifically states the current/latest version of Firefox...
Right, those articles don't.
Claude found the bugs, and then tried to exploit 2 of them but...
"Anthropic’s team also asked Claude to build exploit code – the kind of tool a hacker would use to actually attack someone through a discovered vulnerability. While Claude did write two working exploits, it was only against a test version of Firefox. Firefox's real-world security defenses would have blocked both of them, according to Logan Graham, who leads Anthropic's Frontier Red Team — the group that tests Claude for potential risks." - https://timesofindia.indiatime...
So the summary's sources don't include all the information that could give us a clearer view of what's actually going on.
> "[T]hose deciding which age-based controls need to exist, and those enforcing them gain a tremendous influence on what content is accessible to whom on the internet."
Would that be avoided if there ways to make something like an adult setting at the OS level?
Are there ways to make that work reasonably well or at least better or with less problems that what's currently being used?

Seems to me a conclusion like that can only be based on a biased use of categories and math.

For a bit more than that those lands belonged to other ethnicities ?

I'm pretty sure more negativity about any Palestinians or Israelis isn't going to help.
I'd consider what Yair Lapid recently suggested, that the military phase had achieved what it could and that Israel must now "have the courage to try peace" or risk endless cycles of violence.
