Appeasement never works. Show fascism the door. Loudly and forcefully.

Me being valued for my knowledge and experience again rather than expected to be a glorified babysitter to a child incapable of retaining anything meaningful?

Ya I could go back to that.

Good for everybody, reducing the trade deficit was what they said they wanted.

“But not like this! You were supposed to buy more of -our- stuff!”

They didn’t do that with me, but FWIW I emailed their support team letting them know if they ever wanted me to submit my ID to Palantir I would close up.

I’ve never unsubscribed so hard in my life. I used to trust them with robot investing but now I do it all myself.

They were smart to get one of the country’s best credit card programs otherwise I’d probably have jumped ship for a more predictable boring option like questrade.

This style of anti ad blocker injects JavaScript that will replace site content with a warning to disable ad blockers.

Firefox-based browsers and ublock origin have no issues but with the related domains blocked at the DNS level I’m hoping to find a solution for family phones, and for other family members and guests who still use Chrome-based browsers that can’t negotiate script blocking.

No, I don’t think this is incredibly likely to happen. But like how some disaster prep agencies model zombie outbreaks to get people thinking about hurricanes and earthquakes, it’s a good thought experiment.

Let’s say out of the blue there’s an executive order that prevents US tech companies from servicing Canadian customers.

How hosed are you? Would you have access to backups of family photos not on Apple or Google? Does your email still work? Can you access your password manager? If you have a domain registered, is it still pointable to your servers?

I ask this because I’m trying to train myself to look for Can/EU alternatives in my tech stack for work and personal life.

I’m looking for a heavy duty rucking backpack, preferably to designed with pockets to hold weighted plates in the style of the GoRuck bags.
