Ravensburger sells a line of puzzles called "Food Porn". We're going to need a new word for porn porn soon.

Genocide is bad, but let's make sure the guy who wants to evict all Palestinians from Gaza wins. Yep, good strategy there. Your inaction supports the much worse option on the very issue you claim to care about.

You're part of the problem here with this attitude.

Even in Canada there are cancer treatments that won't be given to pregnant women. That's because the drug is basically thalidomide. Of course women here can (still) get abortions if they choose.

Sorry, but you're mistaken. There are Canadians repeating Trump's claims that Trudeau is trying to cling to power. That's pretty stupid.

I ran into one on Facebook: she claimed that Ukraine invited this war by being mean to Donbas and that Trump is right to end the war instead of prolonging it like some warmonger. She also off-handedly threw in some antivax comment. But she's a real person with a real job in the arts, not a bot.

This is it here: we have diminutives and feminizers but nothing else. The default is masculine and large/strong.

So hypothetically if automobile title were on the blockchain and you lost all your data, what would happen to the car's ownership? Who owns it if nobody can prove they own the nft? Like, stop handwaving wallet recovery and think it through. People will easily lose their crypto wallets.

If your original documents are lost in a fire you can have the government issue you new ones. This is because the documents represent a concept that is enshrined in law. If you lose your blockchain wallet its contents are lost. Just look at that guy trying to buy a landfill to recover his files.

But given how fragile and tenuous the link between computer databases and real life, is it actually better to rely on blockchain to prove physical ownership? What happens if your wallet is lost: you lose your car? At least with a database a human can easily fix problems.

Some of the groundbreaking games of their era will likely live on in some way - a few people have mentioned Super Mario Bros or Tetris or Doom. If any Windows games are playable, likely a lot are - in which case maybe Quake, Half Life, Portal, Assassin's Creed 4, The Last Of Us Part 1, or Bioshock.

Worse: Willis came back out of nowhere and sued the existing band and somehow won the name from them, so in 2017 he basically forcibly took over all the branding, etc. He and his group are a hostile takeover.

One time I did use the feet from an old IKEA shelf on a totally different non-IKEA desk to make the desk sit at the perfect height. This validates the 7 years those feet sat on my shelf, as well as all the other things I've never needed yet.
