The leader of the official opposition has no power? During a minority government?

He controls the shadow cabinet, leads discussion during question period, has the right to meet with foreign dignitaries, gets to participate in government committees (and chairs several committees themselves), gets funding for staff and office space.

An independent gets 1 vote and a few minutes to speak during question period.

I’m not sure why leaders of political parties should be given a free pass. If you can’t win an election because so many people dislike you, maybe you shouldn’t be the leader?

I also doubt in this case that the hyper conservative riding suddenly has a change of heart and votes Liberal or NDP. The only real threats are the independent local candidates. Even then, I doubt they’ll win. Poilievre explained in the debate that an independent doesn’t have much power to do anything, so if they want actual change they should vote for him. Unfortunately, that is pretty accurate.

RISE UP, GAMERS!

I literally cannot tell if this is meant to be satire.

I did watch the video. Half of it is blaming the PirateSoftware video for tanking the entire campaign. Ross literally blamed one guy for the failure. That’s cope.

Lol what a bunch of cope. One guy made a youtube video and that’s the only reason why world governments aren’t changing laws? The video has less views than his Inscryption playthrough. Is he the sole reason for Inscryption’s success too? Is Thor actually a god who can make things happen just by leveraging the power of his 2 million subscribers!?

This failed because the average person does not care about “saving video games”. Nintendo announced they can revoke your access to play games you paid $80 for on the Switch 2 and it’s setting sales records.

From the wiki page on the American Bar Association, they seem to mostly be involved in setting academic and ethical standards and don’t actually grant or revoke licences.

They’re owned by private equity firm CVC Capital Partners. It’s just their way of saying they’re gutting the staff to increase profits for shareholders.

In 2006, CVC and Permira were accused by Labour MP Gwyn Prosser in the House of Commons of “greed” and “blatant asset stripping” of The AA “to borrow £500m on the basis of The AA’s assets in order to pay themselves a dividend.”

You know it’s bad when even the French think you’ve crossed the line.

Games journalism constantly amazes me. Here’s the article:

“GamesRadar recently published an amazing mega interview with devs from dozens of studios. Here’s a quote from it. It’s the same one we put in the headline so now you’ve read it twice. I recommend you checkout the rest of the interview.”

Abortion became legal in Canada through the Criminal Law Amendment Act, passed in 1969. At that time, abortions could take place in hospitals, but only if a 3-doctor committee determined that the pregnancy posed a danger to the parent’s health. In 1988, the Supreme Court of Canada held that the Criminal Code provisions restricting abortion were unconstitutional and struck them down.

Abortion was legal with restrictions. The Supreme Court only removed the restrictions.

SCOTUS has been effectively making laws for a while. Interracial marriage is legal because of a SCOTUS ruling. Gay marriage is legal because of a SCOTUS ruling. Abortion was legal because of a SCOTUS ruling.

These are all legal in Canada because parliament passed laws making them legal, and not because of Supreme Court rulings. I get the sense that the US Congress is so bad at passing any laws whatsoever that the only time laws change is when SCOTUS changes them.

These are all great questions for a lawyer and the answer is probably “it depends”. My understanding is that, if something has multiple licences, you need to follow all of them simultaneously. You can’t choose unless it’s clear that the author allows the choice by using “or” when listing the licences.

The best thing to do when something isn’t clearly licenced is to reach out to the author and ask them to clarify it. If they don’t write back then you shouldn’t do anything with the source material.

Yup. Trump also removed the requirement limiting the amount of water a toilet can use to flush and no manufacturers cared. They already changed their designs and factories to produce efficient models. Why would they change it all just to make stuff that’s worse?

tl;dw

And then the article:

“The poll shows 1 in 3 Americans support continuing to send random brown people to a gulag in El Salvador on the off chance it lowers grocery prices.”

Definitely! But as another comment said, there’s no guarantee a teacher will actually reframe the problem into something interesting. They can just give you work sheets and have you do them over and over and over. Math then becomes a topic that relies heavily on the teacher’s ability to engage with students compared to other subjects.

I think it’s a topic that just doesn’t interests most people, especially children. Where I live, solving problems like 10 - x = 4, solve for x is taught to 10 year olds in grade 5. How many 10 year olds would think this is interesting?

In comparison, grade 5 science teaches cells are the building block of life, energy can exist in forms like electrical and light and can transform between them, and matter has states like solid, liquid, and gas. It’s stuff that ends up being naturally more interesting.

I ordered a margarita pizza! Where’s the margarita!? You’re fired!
