I dont think the horny comic writers who created the character thought that far ahead.

You'd theoretically be able to turn one lead atom into two copper atoms and an atom of Maganese based on proton counts

Let's not forget that Starmer capitulated on the trade war.

He gets: • to still pay with an uneven playing field that benefits the US(import taxes) • to only bring in a limited amount of UK cars to the US market, instead of the previous unlimited amount. • to hurt the UK beef industry by accepting in the US' frankly atrocious beef, which will be dumped in below cost to UK farmers due to the lack of quality controls on US beef.

Yeah great preliminary deal.

An Suv should not be rated on its 0-60 time

Ever.

Fucking ever.

Also note that this was a spare VIP jet for Qatar.

It isnt something they had built for him, its just something they had laying around and gave it to him.

Thats what Canada did too. Applied light counter tariffs, told the moron that he can call us. Trump almost completely folded and Canada hasn't lightened any of its tariffs outside of the electricity one.

Only difference is that Canada is still playing nice.

China has not shown it first.

Canada has done it several times already just with the current "administration"

We've denuded most of the province of trees before, intentionally. Not a good thing, but it happened.

The problem is that conservative governments(Brian Mulroney, Gordon Campbell and Harper+Poilievre) set it up to allow the export of Raw Logs to the US. Thanks to the latter three, they started it. Thanks to Mulroney, we can't ever reduce or control the amount of logs exported because of rules in NAFTA/USCMA.

Also, why would we not have to not have to pay for defence? Would we not have to pay that part of our taxes?

Or would Harper, Poilievre and the CPC be in charge again, when our defence spending was at the lowest it had ever been? Because Trudeau raised it 32% higher than where Harper and Pierre Poilievre left it.

Yeah, no.

Harper and Poilievre fucked over BC when they surrendered to Bush and allowed the raw export of logs to the US.

That, and that alone was the death knell for rural BC. I know this because the market for robotics dropped out in BC once that damned deal was signed. Before that it was a huge industry with a guaranteed great career and benefits. Harper, Pierre Poilievre and the CPC killed it.

Metal is born from rock, which itself is born from blues and american folk.
Blues itself is born from African-American folk music.

Sorry, I was under the assumption that the plan was what Bibi planned all along. He planted the idea in the orange moron that it was his plan to give himself plausible deniability.

Yeah that's why I used past tense.

I recall in the mid 2010s some US mill declared how great they were for having a computer analyze the loss and determine the best cuts for optimization.

I toured a mill in BC in the early 1990s that had that technology for more than 5 years.

Not always true. BCs lumber mills were so far ahead of the US mills technologically that it was actually funny.

At least until Harper and Poilievre surrendered to the US lumber lobby.

Reminder that Modi and his party are part of the IDU, an organization dedicated to spreading far right idealogy worldwide.

I hope the indie and AA game communities/devs keep moving off of Fandom.

They don't think. They use statistical models on massive data sets to achieve the statistically average result from the data set.

In order to have increased creativity, you need to increase the likelihood of it randomly inserting things outside that result: hallucinations.

You cannot have a creative "AI" without them with the current fundamental design.

Just a note from a consultant that we are not paid the same or only slightly more than an equivalent government worker.

If you compare direct salaries, its not that bad and that holds up. But you need to compare the salary of a government employer with what the consulting firm charges the government.

That value results in consultants costing taxpayers roughly 5-10x as much per employee.

The shutdown, and resulting price increase is twofold.

1. It gives them an excuse to set prices where they want, despite a global collapse in prices, allowing them to pad their profit margins.
2. It puts pressure on governments to remove regulations and taxes, allowing the companies to increase their profit margin.

Its a long running song and dance, it is complete garbage and they need to be prosecuted.

Yes, that was the "he deserves a trial"
