So they're forcing Trump to spell out whether he'll let them in or not. Alright.

Doesn't that mean the US has to agree?

Trabants were fucking amazing. The most reliable car I've driven. Fuel pump problems? No fuel pump. Oil pump problems? No oil pump. Radiator/water pump problems? Air cooling. Ignition timing problems? Dedicated per-cyl ignition switch. Rust? Cardboard. Had a fender bender? Replace the panel in half an hour, painting is optional. Getting killed in high speed accident? No high speed.

It's a bit weird because the BGN is pegged to the Euro for a very long time. Sure some inflation might occur due to speculation that people won't notice a price change but that's about it.

Don't badmouth cardboard derivatives. The Trabant didn't fall apart like this!

I also don't like System76 hardware, but they're doing this software work that they're hoping to recoup with hardware sales. If this becomes a good replacement for GNOME, for me it would be worth paying whatever they'd make from a laptop. But I ain't buying their laptop because I don't like it and I don't need it. So I'm gonna give them the difference somehow. 😂

If this becomes a good replacement for GNOME I'd pay the profit margin of a System76 laptop for it.

Well let's see. How would wages get affected if drug cartels disappear, security and stability increase as a result? I think chances are they'd go higher. That would reduce cheap labor across both the US and Mexico. Farm and other. You'd have a drop in weapons sales too.

Sir, we have Fox News in most cable bundles.

I was trying to figure out how graphene would achieve this. By smearing some on the pins? But then why graphene and not just graphite? And how do you keep the charging pins from being shorted?

"The Great State of Canada is stunned as the Finance Minister resigns, or was fired, from her position by Governor Justin Trudeau,"

"Her behavior was totally toxic, and not at all conducive to making deals which are good for the very unhappy citizens of Canada," Trump continued, ending his post with: "She will not be missed!!!"

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A former FBI informant pleaded guilty on Monday to lying about a phony bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden and his son Hunter that became central to the Republican impeachment inquiry in Congress.

 

Happy Friday!

 

Labour Minister Steven MacKinnon is sending the labour dispute between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) to the Canada Industrial Relations Board.

MacKinnon said Friday that if the board determines negotiations between the parties are at an impasse, it has been directed to order striking CUPW members back to work under the existing collective agreement until May 22, 2025.
