Damn, I’ve heard jokes about quebecios being snobby with their French but that seems excessive

It's not snobby. From an anglo perspective, here's how it plays out in reality:

WAITER: Qu'est-ce que vous voudrais? ME: Huh? WAITER: What would you like? ME: {proceeds to order}

...And life goes on.

Trans activists are going about this all wrong. Instead of sending someone like Marcy in to violate the law, they need to do this:

Send in the biggest, burliest, hairiest ftm trans dudes into busy ladies rooms, the room that the state insists he must now legally use. And record the reaction of the women and girls leaving for broadcast media. Because by focussing on mtf trans in ladies rooms, I really feel the dipshits that make these laws haven't thought their cunning plans through very fully.

But obviously unclear on the concept. The key was the bottle, not the contents.

Now all I can visualize is Kirk beaming down random bottles of Saurian brandy to unsuspecting civilizations.

Everyone knows that it's a bottle of coke you need to leave anyways. I saw it in an 80s documentary.

The Democrats get penalized for not fixing it fast enough or good enough.

After a decade there I also got permabanned. And then I got permabanned 3 more times with alt accounts for saying some pretty innocuous shit, but almost always political.

I finally got the message. Fuck you Reddit.

> That being said, electronics in our devices do tend to reduce the amount of water and power that appliances use. Dumb devices are extremely inefficient, even though there are fewer points of failure.

I fail to see how electronics in these (unpowered) devices in any way reduce the amount of power that they use.

Due to some of them having a higher orbit. It's an interesting solution. Imagine how different Ukraine would be if they weren't geo-restricted.

Most people don't think about this stuff, but if you need computer cables- power, networking, adapters, hdmi and other AV, etc, Startech is a Canadian company that makes good stuff and is very well priced. You've probably encountered it before but didn't know that it is Canadian.
