Or, it could lower the number of frequent flyers.

While I doubt that the opposition nor the powers that want them in charge are above reproach here, the arguments as to why what they’re saying is false and based on a western agenda don’t stand up to the most basic logic seive either.

It is fully possible for the incumbent to have run a fully corrupt campaign complete with ballot stuffing and intimidation/misinformation AND for the observers to not be objective either. One doesn’t cancel out the other.

The big question is: were the elections provably legitimate and above reproach, and will the majority of Georgians respect the results?

UNRWA is terrorizing Israelis by telling them what’s really going on in their country.

I doubt it’ll happen… but just imagine if once Biden hits Lame Duck in a couple of weeks, he actually does something about all this, once it won’t affect elections.

I moved to Telus when Rogers bought Shaw and screwed up my billing plan, and were unwilling to be competitive.

Both Rogers and Telus have capped plans and more expensive “unlimited” plans.

Georgia is populated by western liberals?

TL;DR: the incumbent pro-Russia billionaire is asserting he won the election.

Have you ever worn a pair of Florsheims or a pair of riding boots? You can totally remove the laces and you’ll still have the same difficulty.

I use a shoe horn. It’s stainless steel. It’s never broken and I’ve had it for over 20 years.

I don’t use it often, but for those times when your feet are wet/swollen or the shoes are leather dress shoes, it’s the only way to go.

Plus, anyone with high arches will need that extra assist. It’s not a nationality thing, it’s a foot and shoe type thing.

You know what? The atrocities in Ethiopia don’t get coverage either, nor the ones in Myanmar, and nobody’s talking about the Uyghurs anymore, and even discussion on Ukraine is muted. Same goes for Burkina Faso, the Mexican cartel crisis, continuing fighting in Syria, Mali, DR Congo, Yemen, Haiti, Pakistan, and Colombia.

Each one of those has claimed more casualties than Palestine, although only a few of them are as focused on genocide.

Well… it requires not being in a border dispute for x amount of time to join. That’s going to be an issue for Ukraine for a good while to come.

So… is that enough votes by their constitution to move ahead with the constitutional rewrite?

In Canada, the regulations have been 8 hour workday with two paid 15 minute breaks in that period and an unpaid 30 minute break for salaried workers, unless otherwise agreed by contract, since I started working in the early 90s.

This means a lot of people work 9-5:30 or 8:30-5. Union jobs generally have a 8 hour day in total with a 1 hour lunch break, and other professions have other arrangements.

For a number of years, I took my “lunch break” at 5 and just worked a straight 8 hour day with two 15 minute breaks.

Indeed. With no central control, it seems easier for a single individual/org to dominate any given discussion, but otherwise it seems close to what reddit originally claimed to be.

I’ve used them both the exact same way, which kept me away from a lot of the junk on Reddit until they killed my access via Apollo. Then I just switched over and subbed pretty much the same topics.

…that was the point?

They’re making this argument about Ukraine, and yet are perfectly fine with the US on their doorstep.

Shows that this isn’t about the US, but about getting stuff from Russia.

US military aid to Seoul, on the other hand, is a brilliant strategy….

I grew up in the cold war. I’ve done the drills. I know both what the fear of an all-out nuclear holocaust is, and I know that the reality will be something entirely different.

Did you not see what happened to Russia’s latest Satan II ICBM? Thankfully that one wasn’t armed.

That’s a good line to use on Putin.

Realistically, if Putin uses the nuclear codes, this is what happens:

A few warheads in Russia explode in their silos and the government blames the West. A bunch of ither warheads are harmlessly shot down. A few actually find their targets and a few million people are wiped out. The west retaliates and suddenly the war is over.

BICS then becomes ascendant in global power, China claims Taiwan and the Philippines and possibly Japan, and Israel is wiped off the face of the earth as all sides turn it into a nuclear slag pile, killing Israelis, Palestinians and a large number of Lebanese and Syrians in the bargain.

Then things adjust to the new normal and economies rebuild, with the noted absence of Russia and Belarus.

Balanced for inflation?

Spot-on.

I spend a lot of time training people how to properly review code, and the only real way to get good at it is by writing and reviewing a lot of code.

With an LLM, it trains on a lot of code, but it does no review per-se… unlike other ML systems, there’s no negative and positive feedback systems in place to improve quality.

Unfortunately, AI is now equated with LLM and diffusion models instead of machine learning in general.
