@TrendPolCa @AnitaAnandMP How many much needed MRI machines and beds for Canadian hospitals does that add up to?
Asking for a friend.

The Sartre quote that “the anti-Semite doesn’t accuse the Jew of stealing because he actually believes he stole. He accuses the Jew of stealing because he enjoys watching the Jew empty his pockets to prove his innocence” is what the flotilla losers and various country leaders do.

יש טיסות מסובסדות לארץ לכאילו "כנסים אקדמאים "אבל באמת תירוץ לבחור למפלגות השמאל, אבל לבוחרים מהימין?
שואל עבור חבר שגר בחו"ל.
הוא גם רוצה טיסה חינם לארץ לבקר את המישפוחה, אבל לשים פתק מחל, כי הוא שפוי.

We're paying now $20USD/month to access "premium" AI services.
Doable.
What happens when they decide to charge $100/month overnight?
Slow boiling frogs, is what we are.

TRUMP CONFIRMS THE EXISTENCE OF ALIENS!

I'm old enough to remember when 75% of a game's difficulty was just fighting it's unintuitive interface.

Those were the good ol' days. 😌

HT: Ant da comical

This is the honeymoon phase with AI services. $20/month, lots of access, mind getting duller, and dependencies are being formed. The hooks are in the flesh.
And then soon, they'll jack up the price, and then you're truly screwed because you're addicted to it.
You knew that.

We are willingly erasing our knowledge by saving it as 1's and 0's.
We must keep hard copy, tangible archives. Otherwise, we'll lose the ability to remember.

When the words "New World Order" comes out of the mouth of politicians, you should be terrified.
1984 was a warning, not an instruction manual.

"Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate"

The new motto of Canada, circa 2026 AD.
Found by archeologist 500 years from now.

There are reports of mass bread shortages in Israel right now.

@ryangerritsen The sad irony is that we are the parents of GenZ.
I think the tech we built glitched something in the system.
If only we had the hindsight of the kind of damage social media would have caused.

[xFlaye @xFlaye]

So very true.

[Ryan Gerritsen🇨🇦🇳🇱 @ryangerritsen]

The psychology of Gen X. A generation who respects competence, not titles. A generation who had to solve their own problems. A generation who was adulting since elementary school.

@sciencegirl Spatial awareness, critical thinking, communication skills.

[Warren Kinsella @kinsellawarren]

Wow. If true, this violates @CBCNews' own journalistic code - and it's collective agreement with the CBC employees' union.

The best software @autodesk ever had?
Softimage XSI.
(And then they buried it with nary a farewell salute).

Bring back #Softimage

Not hard to guess who the elephant is, and who the arrogant little ant.

[xFlaye @xFlaye]

Canada, a parable:
Once an ant saw a tree trunk, and started to climb it. After she got to the top, she realized she didn't climb a tree, but the leg of an elephant.
The elephant began to walk and the ant, looking behind, said "my, what a big dust cloud we are leaving behind".
