Considering the design, I wonder if they perhaps knew from some of their euro friends that "skap" is a slang for "die" in at least a couple of central European languages

It doesn't outright say she was doing something illegal. But it does state she was working on her own business, another article mentioned it as well, that she was investing, feel free to use your non-american search engine of choice to find more. And that's not what TN visa is for. I can imagine it would be easily abused (and likely is) by investing in your own business and sponsoring yourself, if the amount you invested isn't enough to get you through the threshold for investor visa - which has been increased recently.

Multiple lawyers are quoted suggesting it was not a good idea to do what she did, one of them directly advising her, and hat she wouldn't have had the same issue at Canada border, that just screams arrogance to me.

I'm not defending what US did here, but it's like with boycotting US products....oh suddenly shopping in all those big corporation shops in Canada is fine as long as they fuck us over with Canadian products? It's gotten real quiet about that real quick. Assholes can be on both sides, just different sizes, doesn't mean you must support either.

I wouldn't want that to happen to anyone it's bullshit, and this is getting overzealous, making an example of someone. If you read all the details in the articles about this though, it appears that she was doing something borderline or outright illegal to begin with, and I'm finding it difficult to feel sorry for her in this instance.

She was advised by a lawyer not to cross the border the way she did and at the place where she did it, and she ignored that advice. She was on TN visa which was revoked back in November, yet she was supposedly investing in a startup? Wouldn't that mean you should seek E2 or similar visa, what could have flagged her for the cancellation her original TN one?

I feel more sorry for the hiker from Germany, even if she may have been trying to stay with her boyfriend or whatever, as far as evidence suggests, at least she did more or less everything by the book and had appropriate visa and documents that wouldn't have otherwise caused her any issues.

It sounds more like agreed in principle, and would only come into effect if/when Russia agrees.

And for everyone else who doesn't want extra garbage on their phone it's: switch to 'Desktop Site' > continue doing whatever else. This applies to both Firefox and Firefox Focus

No need promote/install more unnecessary stuff on your phones 🤦

Edit- that being said, I still include no script/ublock in FF and use FFF for yt videos when I don't want to clog my Tubular history (newpipe fork with sponsor block) with useless stuff that I'll never want to rewatch.

They should make him wear a big ass wall clock around his neck and claim it's there to prove that the release is unedited.

Perhaps they spontaneously combusted?

I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't mean that much, if anything OpenRA is ahead of what the original engine was. The only issue is saw with OpenRA's engine was the odd unit pathing every now and then, so perhaps that could be one thing for them to look at (not that it was consistently great in C&C)

My money is on de-lidded 2nd hand being passed as own build, until we see a picture...

Probably saw a rise in sign ups from Canada and Brazil....thanks to RFDers who spotted deals that make the plus sub for 2 years for equivalent of 39 CAD

I'll probably try Project Rubi-ka when they reopen the servers/help them out with some bug hunting, since Anarchy Online, despite its flaws, is still the best MMORPG I've played to date.... which is kinda sad tbh

Aww my img didn't upload

 

Managed to hit the concrete barriers on both sides of a 3 lane highway. Luckily didn't hit anyone but traffic was about 3km long an hour later and caused another accident within the traffic jam itself.

Edit:grammar, and obligatory - I took the frame from my partner's video who captured it for me, as I was busy avoiding the debris scattered all over the highway trying not to get a puncture. I don't touch my phone while I drive, and hope you don't either.
