Pretty sure they meant an everyday event in the US not in Canada.

To me this highlights that many single men have problems with loneliness.

It's not just the correct amount of lines but connections between the lines are actually there, if they should be that is, if you look closely.

𓌂𓐍𓏏𓁐 seems to mean Sekhmet according to Wikipedia. So the full thing is "Sekhmet angry".

just because its true doesnt mean you have to say it
Well depends on the programming language they use. D&D uses classes and that's a big no no for some.

When a Roman mosaic was discovered in modern-day Turkey, it was found to be so well made that it preserved the wave of an earthquake without breaking the pattern.

That is kinda survivour bias though. Almost all old stuff didn't last either.

Valve now warns on Steam pages if an Early Access game hasn't been updated in a long time

Which probably wouldn't work well. All it would do is make the game "release" when the time is up no matter what making it harder to know if you are buying a complete product or not. It's not like valve will go in and kick a game out if they don't think it's complete enough, or even be able to define that in a way that wouldn't just be arbitrary...

Online banking, extra validation during online purchases, online government services, validating mobile payment, and more.
And technically it's not government ID but rather organized by banks. There is a government organized one(at least I think it's government organized) as well but only really works for government services.

Every job that I was ever trained to do and every job when I trained others was like this
I've heard that this could also used as a defence for companies, "we told them not to do it that way so it's clearly not our fault(sure we might have added some winks when we said that but that was just dry air, honest)".

I mean there is arguments against creating test for everything but that definitely isn't a good one...

Wait... You're only supposed to get one? Do I return the others somehow? Is there any support email or phone I can contact?

I'm a gameplay programmer who have worked with Unity and Unreal and I've experiment with Rust for gamedev(though only for hobby projects) and for regular code. My conclusions so far is that Rust sucks for gameplay code, for most other things it's kinda nice.
The biggest reason is that it's much harder to write prototype code to test out an idea to see if it's feasible and feels/looks good enough. I don't want to be forced to fully plan out my code and deal with borrowing issues before I even have an idea of if this is a good path or not.
I would say though that because you are using ECS stuff it is at least plausible to do in Rust but at least for my coding/development style it still isn't a good fit.

One person doesn't get to decide what is offensive or insulting to everyone. Probably better to say "not insulting to me".

As a gameplay programmer I fully disagree. Just the ability to quickly ask a designer near you for clarifications or to if modifying the design slightly to save on time is worth soo much.
Asking over slack just isn't the same as it adds more friction, takes longer, and makes it easier for misunderstandings to sneak in.
To be fair though it can be worth sometimes working from home to give you less distractions if you need some full focus time... And other jobs in the industry does gain a lot more from being fully remote...
