Notepad's sole purpose is to remove formatting from copied text.

I like Steam, but I am trying to shop at GOG more and more. No DRM has become a big selling feature for me. I remember the days when Google was one of the "cool" companies that made tech better. Now I am suspicious of all tech companies.

This is actually a win. The original site was going through an ecological sensitive area. People fought to protect the "grave" of a fictional character but accidentally protected a delicate ecology. That is more important than protecting the dead, real or not.

Fans of the wizard series come to leave stones reading “Here Lies Dobby” despite being asked not to by the land owner, the National Trust, because the beach is an ecologically sensitive site.

The connection is that Windows records everything you do. So the FBI asks for every Windows user who accessed a specific site around a date/time and Microsoft can provide that.

You accessed a site over VPN? Your ISP has no idea it was you, , and the VPN didn't keep records, but Windows recorded that and sent it back to the mothership with your unique identifier.

He was later arrested when police found micro USB pics on his computer.

Maine couple starve bear.

There was absolutely no reason to grant TFWs to restaurants. It just shows that money matters more to the government than people.

No jury in a guilty plea...

Gold does have practical value. It doesn't oxidize or tarnish at standard temperature and pressure, it is soft enough to beat into shape with a hammer and it can be rolled out incredibly thinly.

Someone mistook Ontario California for Ontario Canada.

Remember, this is about classes, not ages. Plenty of Boomers and Gen X have never and will never be able to afford a house. Rich people are causing the current affordability crisis. Get mad at them.

They expect to keep the currency, the military, all federal infrastructure, half of the CPP for the entire country and get a thick pipeline straight through BC.

I want an awesome RTS, like Wings of Liberty, but I would absolutely play a StarCraft shooter with a really good story and gameplay. I have zero interest in another Overwatch or extraction shooter. I expect another low-effort reskin.

Because they are all owned by the same people.

Didn't they sell those shovels on credit though?

It is starting to seem like we'll be at war with the US soon too.

According to the article, $150,000 is the maximum damages allowed per track. So $150,000/track * 86,000,000 tracks is around $13 Trillion. So they are asking for the maximum that the law allows.

They could ask for infinity billion dollars for all it matters; you can't get blood from a stone.

Canadians seem to love Mark Carney, but he only looks good next to Trump and Poilievre. The shiniest turd, but still a turd.

200 novels with 50,000 sales. An average of 250 sales per novel. So each novel is a failure but she fails at such a staggering pace that it looks like success.

It is blatantly obvious that the American oil interests are behind it. The Goose did a good video about it.
