I find it interesting what is happening to the polls in Canada.
What looked like an upcoming comfortable victory for The Conservatives has changed dramatically after the inauguration of Trump.
Should the Liberals end up winning the election later this year, the US president would be facing the new leader of the Liberal Party, Mark Carney.
We would then see the chaos president Trump fighting a trade war against a calculated, educated and experienced economist who has lead central banks.
This happens all the time.
French fries are not French, they’re Belgian at best.
One of the most popular Chinese dishes in the USA is General Tso's Chicken. In China no one knows who the General Tso is and never tasted his Chicken.
This is not an exhausting list.
reminds me of the dutch "filet americain"
which 1) for whatever reason has a french name
and 2) is literally raw minced beef with some spices that you're supposed to put on a slice of bread (with maybe some onions/eggs/more spices).
I guess maybe because americans like meat and boneless things? I have no idea what the connection is here honestly
so called "vocal stim collection" actually impossible to quote due to heavy reliance on sound effects
many such cases
Spotify rips off artists, pays Joe Rogan to produce his propaganda, and distributes Andrew Tate lessons on how to traffic women.
Are you supporting this? I'm not paying them to do this.

May 17, 2006 2 a.m. - just hours before the EFF and AT&T whistleblower Mark Klein's first hearing on their lawsuit vs AT&T for helping the NSA run a massive internet spying operation
Klein's evidence was under seal. Only a few had seen it. The NYT & LA Times were too scared to publish.
I had gotten a hold of them. Just a freelancer. Wired under EIC Evan Hansen agreed to publish everything.
2 a.m., we published.
Room 641a was public.
AT&T's lawyers death stares were glorious.
RIP Mark Klein

i had a bit of an argument with @Blobsta about the positioning of the dots, and why one would want to flip them.
I guess because I don't mind having them in either position really, so I can't decide which I like best.
He says its personal preference, which is true of course, but I guess I don't have one, I may never pick one and switch between the modes for fun.

in reply to Randahl Fink • • •The Canadian Conservative Party has a massive war-chest and they’ve basically been campaigning non-stop since the last election. The Liberals on the other hand have kept their heads down and have been busy running things, basically ceding the floor to Poilievre and his grievance-politics.
Additionally, the Liberal government under Trudeau have been in power for almost a decade, so people got just kind of bored with them.

It's pretty rare that governments last longer than two full terms (10 years max, but generally closer to 8). Trudeau was leader for 9 and a bit. That would make him the 6th or 7th longest serving PM.
He had a lot of baggage from a few relatively minor scandals and dealing with Covid. There was also a constant anti-Trudeau drumbeat from Western and mostly rural based grievance operations, well funded by the oil, gas and coal industries.
PP made it his duty to appeal to the anti-vax and grievance voters. A lot of the rest were just leaning "not-Trudeau". As soon as Trudeau stepped down, conservative support started to slide.
