My High School Friend Had a Heart Attack on Sunday

I hope this was a good wake up call. My dad had a heart attack in his 40s and he's been on meds since then, he's in early 70s now. A guy who was my best friend from kindergarten till high school (we went to different ones and drew apart) had a heart attack in 2018 and died. He was exactly 2 days...

Jesus's middle name is Hume! Caution: Some NSFW images within!

Was that a real guess on the show? The pedantic side of me is bothered that all 3 letters appear more than once, can't possibly be the answer.

Trudeau resigns.

I'm not professionally involved with politics, I don't live in Quebec, and there's never been a BQ candidate in my riding, so forgive me if I'm uncertain where on the left-right spectrum BQ is. :) My wording is perhaps a bit unfortunate in that besides a dictionary meaning, conservative has a...

Trudeau resigns.

I'd prefer a liberal govt that is more fiscally conservative. NDP sure, I'm not too familiar with BQ's views tbh.

Trudeau resigns.

I hinted in my previous post that I voted for LIB more because of "lesser of two evils" reasons than because I'm enthusiastic about Carney. I don't like their budget plan, there's always a "crisis of the day" and LIB have only one arrow in their quiver - more taxes, even more govt spending and...

Trudeau resigns.

It's 11 seats where conservatives are leading. There are currently 28 seats in play and liberals are leading in 13. The 168 figure includes those 13, so they need to not just flip 4, but also not lose any of the 13 they are in the lead. I agree that it's unlikely. TBH, I might even prefer...

Trudeau resigns.

Someone described themselves as "fiscally conservative liberal". That works perfectly for me as well, I'm also not happy with liberals using a never-ending "unprecedented crises" as justification for more taxes and even more govt spending, we're doing pretty poor economically in comparison with...

So they build tiny VR goggles for mice while humans have to wear bulky ones. WTF scientists?!

Official Trump second term prediction thread

Ever since making English the official language I've been expecting that he'll be renaming it to the "American language".

Russia on brink of ... NOPE! Russia INVADES Ukraine!

Trump wants to end Ukraine war quickly and if the west gives some concessions to Russia we can have a "Peace for our time". I can see how Munich would be a natural choice for negotiations...

What is your favorite space-based with aliens sci-fi TV series?

Yeah, the scenes with Seven and Naomi were alright. Also Seven and the Doctor, and Seven and Tuvok, Seven alone etc. Naomi was neither here nor there, but I would've summarily executed Neelix at the first opportunity.

Ublock Origin being blocked/disabled in Chrome June 2024.

Sadly I agree, there will be some fuss, some people will move elsewhere, but eventually the fuss dies down and the company gets away with it. Especially if the company times it right so people are preoccupied with something else, like say you make an unwelcome change around an important election...

The official ATOT Fast Food discussion thread

I don't expect spicy sandwiches at big food chains to be particularly spicy. It's when they start throwing around attributes like habanero and ghost pepper that I start expecting something hotter than sriracha.

Good-bye?- Anandtech

Darn. There goes my idea of reselling my account. A lightly used account in good standing, I figured it should fetch at least $3.50. Sad news, one of the first tech sites I started visiting, I bookmarked AT probably in the 90s, and I lurked in the forums since ~2004 before registering.
