I mean we did have internet, but it was billed by the amount of data you used, and being online meant that people couldn’t use the phone at the same time.

The eyes on that cat spell “murder” to me. When my cat looks at me like that, I’m reaching for the cat toys.

Everyone needs an Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher.

Geneticist here. There are a number of factors that go into determining a person’s facial features. Genetics, of course, play a huge role. But other things such as …

Sometimes websites will have a calendar for entering dates, where the largest unit of time you can flip back and forth is a month. Pure evil.

Ngl, my first association with “Catdolf” was not LotR.

But snaaaaacks.

I love it. It combines my resentment of misogyny in video game culture with the things I care about in everyday life such as sleep.

Ever played Baldur’s Gate 3?

Two reasons. First, the required majority can be lowered to vote him in with a simple majority, if no absolute majority can be achieved (this will not happen right away). Second, the members who broke rank probably only wanted to send a message, so it’s likely that they’ll change their vote back to the party line (this may happen fairly soon).

I’ll fucking do it again.

Yeah, sounds about right.

Thank you for the explanation. Just one follow-up to check if I understood: The minority government would then just include the Liberals but with support from the Bloc Québécois (i.e., the Bloc has the power to veto, but the legislation will still come from the Liberals)?

That seems plausible, although I still wonder why a coalition with the Bloc is then not also on the table (there’s probably a reason, I just don’t know about Canadian politics).

Question for the Canadians: Do you have two or multiple parties in parliament? I’m asking because the article states that a minority government was the goal, and I was wondering whether a coalition government wouldn’t be more advantageous.

I would’ve thought “finding fresh talent” is something that publishers do out of self-interest, but I guess I’m wrong.

Morrowind’s lore and artistic direction was far superior to Oblivion and Skyrim. I will fight people who disagree with this (not physically though, that hurts).

I think in general you can also just expect that any OS, techy or not, ships with a basic, lightweight text editor. The fact that Windows seems to want to change that is an anti-feature for the entire OS.
