Oh, he’s on my grandmother’s birth certificate. I’ve got a complete and solid chain of birth certificates, marriage certificates, death certificates, places and dates of births, the whole thing.
I even have his Canadian draft papers from WWI.
It’s basically as clean of a history as you can get when it’s back to the late 1800’s.
I thought NASA has mostly removed Microslop from places like the ISS after they had the microslop windows laptop infect those systems on the ISS? Why go back to this garbage on important facilities?
In my case we’ll be staying in Germany, but having an option to move to Canada with our multiple Phds instead of going back to the US (if forced out of Germany for some reason) would be preferable.
We also have some kids who are going to be looking at college in a few years. If they could have an option to to Canada cheap, that’d rock. Then you’d have some more educated Canadians hanging out and paying taxes.
I did make sure to teach the kids the rules of ice hockey. I know it’s on the driving test there, right?
We already had much of the family archives gathered for genealogical research done. There was a (mostly unknown) great grandfather that we didn’t track down. We just knew he was from canada, fathered one of the ancestors and bailed back to Saskatchewan.
Turns out he’s now findable online (new records were added) and he’s multi generational Canadian. The birth certificate has been ordered. The process might take a while, but we’re filing the day his records show up in our mailbox.
Now we just need Canada to join the EU somehow and all of the stars will align.
It only happened in the last year, or even the last six months to truly be in effect. It was a huge position shift for the German government as part of their effort to increase skilled worker immigration and retention.
And even that was a fractured history. The Netscape to Mozilla release was heavily influenced by Netscape being bought by AOL followed by the Netscape team dumping a non functional browser (they ripped out a ton of code they didn’t own) on the open source world. People had to basically patch the stubs until it built and then rebuild from there. By the end, Mozilla barely resembled Netscape, but it did get the community finally building a serious open source option.
Too many OSS tools to really be able to mention them all. Thank you to so many GNU/Linus, OpenBSD, BSD*, and other developers!
I’ll mention these:
Without TeX I’d go insane writing technical and scientific documents. You’ve saved me thousands of hours of work!
Oh, and my current time waster game: Kohan: Immortal Sovreigns.
This whole debacle was a rousing success. The question is for whom. It wasn’t a victory for the US citizens writ large. It wasn’t a win for any NATO allies. It wasn’t a win for the vast majority of the people in the world.
There’s a few people/groups we can assume did win:
It’s mostly an insider trading game at the expense of lives, money, and the US’ sitting on the geopolitical stage. This is all part of the smash and grab stage of this presidency.
We’re in Germany. There’s always more bread.
Cheese and a slice of sausage is a breakfast. Bread optional.
You’re spot on. That’s a classic AI prose giveaway.
Why the every living FUCK would a serious agency rely on Microslop for any technical component anywhere? Haven’t they learned from the last 40 years of terrible products?
“When you have fear and you stop going to the doctor, then in the future there are important consequences” of missing prenatal care, Bustamante says. “Your children are more likely to suffer, for example, low birth weight, and this will ultimately have lifetime consequences.”
This is the crux of it for me. All of this is to punish and be cruel to brown people. The same so-called Christian principle following fascists who rail on and on about abortion and babies are 100% on board be cruel to adults, which leads to the pain and death of babies.
Conservatives don’t care about babies, only about getting to be legally racist. The slavers never gave up, they’re just wearing elephant pins now.
I’m still running the last release of Hannah Montana Linux. Just waiting for something better to come out.
No. Full stop NO.
It’s my computer and my family. Stop trying to justify yet more tracking us in our own homes and on our own devices. Get fucked.
I would sometimes shake things up and go mostly staff with a sling. The sling is hilariously entertaining on many fronts. It’s not really a big damage weapon, but with called shots life gets fun. Headshots? Yup. Knocking out guards? Indeed. Breaking that vial of potion to release the spell/fog/acid? Bingo.
Sneaking a ranged weapon into town? Have fun with that heavy crossbow, I’m just wrapping the sling around as a belt. Ammo? Sling stones are fabricated, but any old rock can improvise.
While the longbow / longsword ranger is just classicly awesome, a sling / (something) is worth giving a try.
Next up: atlatl barbarian!
We sold our car and moved to a modern developed city. Only been in on taxi in 8 months, but we ride the trains every day and walk to the local stores for most things. It works great and I would hate to go back to a car centric old world place.
