Yes and no.
MS did it to simplify their tech stack and maintained three separate full versions • Phone • Tablet+PC • Server Instead of • Phone • Tablet • PC • Server

There was speculation that they were moving towards a unified phone+tablet+PC OS

Instead it looks like we are getting • Tablet • Xbox Handheld • Xbox • PC As a single OS.

Whereas Google is doing it likely for shady reasons. Potentially to avoid a government mandated breakup by claiming that all of their devices run one OS.

Knight Street(nearest major steet) and 41st is dangerous. Big intersection.

I'd wager the SUV was speeding through the light at 41st and Knight, then rushing through the intersection at Culloden.

They passed a law blocking it and the cons are desperate enough to go against him on it, as they already did it once.

Yup. Hes right wing it was a gamble going for him to avoid to far worse Poilievre. That at least I still stand by.

The rage worthy thing is that prior to the election he was openly resisting Trump.

That is he revealing himself to be Carney the Coward instead of Carney the Courageous is really bad. Good thing the Bloc will never allow Carney to sell out our Dairy, so we have at least some degree of food security. Also good my partner and I know enough French to move to Quebec if things get bad.

Far worse.

E.G. Trump openly considers anyone asking into Epstein and the much promised list to be obscene, has a few times now opined about removing people's citizenship and has a fucking concentration camp

A law like this allows anyone like him to set anything he wants as obscene.
You look at something he made obscene, so they have to store your personal info. Then his goons get your personal info via ICE Then he takes away your citizenship.

Then its concentration camp time.

Simple:

He and his crew had 2 years of prep for Lotr, storyboards, finding locations, making props and sets, etc.

New Line Cinemas forced him to do that same prep in 6 months for the Hobbit. Allegedly they didn't even fully finish the script and had to cut in Del Toro scenes.

Where it is nice is when you want to lie down you don't have to untangle the sheets.

You just lie down and the sheets are perfect.

Also its nice to tuck them in at least partially to make it easier to make.

That everyone will accept the loss of the real internet for the dystopian nightmare we have now.

And that it will get worse in ways we cannot imagine.

We saw Nazis as bad and shunned them.

Gen Z and Gen Alpha created Incels.

Lets not overlook that the Dutch also had a raging resistance that included companies intentionally making faulty parts for the Nazis.

There is a shifting of themes that basically tracks with the corporate takeover of the US government.

  1. (1993) Companies fucking around with systems they don't understand is the problem. Rich guy underestimates nature.
  2. (1997) Rich guy learned lesson. Corporate greed did not.
  3. (2001) post-dotcom crash: A rich fucker and his stupid family learn the lesson about the company that fucked with nature. Governments are bad for not interveneing.
  4. (2015) post-Birther: Company and its rich founder are naive and innocent. US Government and US education are the bad guys.
  5. (2018) Corporate suits are the good guys. Science is the bad guys.
  6. (2022) A (suddenly) European company is the bad guys. Science is again the bad guy. Americans are the good guys.
  7. (2025) The US company and Military are the good guys.
