Does anyone have an analysis comparing the Fremen of Frank Herbert’s Dune to the the Aiel of Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time?
Lol, yeah they’ve just learned to pretend to be too avoid being everyone’s tech support.
It’s why I tell everyone to get a mac: I don’t know anything about them.
The last time I donated blood (quite recently) I was asked if I had had a new sex partner or more than one sex partner the last 3 months.
I was asked if I had had sex with anyone within the last year that had previously had/ tested positive for hiv/aids.
I was asked if I had taken any hiv/aids preventers.
Is it the follow-up questions to these initial screening questions that are homophobic?
Are they?
Canadian Blood Services (CBS) says it plans to introduce the new behaviour-based questionnaire approach “no later” than Sept. 30. It will apply to both blood and plasma donations, outside of Quebec.
It will mean that when all donors are screened before rolling up their sleeves, they’ll be asked whether they have recently engaged in anal sex in the context of new or multiple sexual partners within the last few months. If they have, they would not be able to donate until they had gone three months without engaging in that activity.
I thought that change (2022) was the end of the discussion.
In Canada we donate blood for free, then they sell it to America.
I don’t think Jesse Owens was tainted just because Hitler congratulated him.
I don’t think people that resisted the Nazis are tainted just because Israel thanks them.
That’s why I disagreed with your initial comment.
Just as we shouldn’t consider Jesse Owens to be tainted by Hitler’s endorsement, we shouldn’t consider anti-Nazi movements to be tainted by Israel’s endorsement.
That’s all we seem to disagree on.
Yes, we should be skeptical of Israel positioning WW2 heroes as champions of Israel’s interpretation of Zionism.
Also for clarification: I’m opposed to Israel’s apparent genocide of the Palestinians. I think Israel’s crimes are more similar to the Americo-Canadian genocide of North America’s first nations than with the Nazi genocide of European Jews and other marginalized minorities. Ie Israel isn’t doing “murder factory” genocide, it’s doing “encroachment and suppression” genocide (and starvation, and persecution). Also similar to what Russia is doing to Ukraine.
Look mate I agree that Israel is probably committing genocide against the Palestinians. But that doesn’t mean that everyone that Israel has ever liked is tainted, that’s idiotic.
Your explanation makes sense to me, an uninvolved spectator with no particular knowledge of generators.
Maybe you direct the generator exhaust over the exterior of the tank? Would that be adequate heat?
My thought was to recall that my 20# propane tank has some sort of safety valve integrated into it that will clamp outflow if there is too big a surge in flow. Flow needs to be 0 for a minute or so for it to reset. But that doesn’t explain your experience with the larger tank.
Okay, I think $80 Canadian for a case, psu, mobo, cpu, & ram is sounding pretty reasonable. I just don’t know of its enough processing power for the video stuff. But I guess if not I can upgrade the mobo/cpu or add a graphics card.
Thanks, that channel looks great.
Re offsite backup: Yes I don’t have so many family photos that it will be difficult/ expensive to store online. But I need to get them together first.
I don’t have a computer with a bluray drive, only laptops.
The Pope is woke! Gender ideology IS toxic.
We should support the catholic church in their initiative to reform their sexist gender roles.
I’m impressed the patriarch of Rome is so invested in dismantling the patriarchy.
… wait that’s not what he means? He supports highly defined gender roles? What a toxic ideology.
The sculptor reportedly said:
“Le Coq c’est moi”
“The Cock is me”
Also related:
Coq means rooster in French and is not used as an insult or a euphemism for the penis at all.
But your mileage may vary.
Oh the injustice of people opting for a different meme template!
Hey mate, too much hyperbole rots your brain.
Please be better informed:

think about all the kids that did not make it to the top, and just had a abusive childhood without anything to show for it.
(…Except trauma to teach to their kids)
Exactly!
Hey I love this meme everytime I see it, but I want to point out that that point about growing up in "similar circumstances that nurture their skill’ is contingent upon working musicians being able to afford to raise children. Children that will also need to work.
Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t think there is a comparable proportion of the population that are working musicians, that earn enough money to support children, but not so much that the children don’t have to learn a trade, as there were in “Enlightenment” Europe where if a person wanted to hear music they had to make it themselves, or pay someone to make it, and every rich asshole had a chamber orchestra following him around.
Also parents don’t teach children their trades the way they used to, and they aren’t expected to support their parent’s businesses the way they used to. (I’m not lamenting this). There used to be a lot of pressure on children to contribute economically. Mozart, and his siblings probably faced what we’d consider child abuse if he didn’t practice. He was certainly exploited.
Michael Jackson is a Mozart of the 20th century. He was put to work at a young age to support his parents and siblings, that were also working musicians.
As much as I love Weird Al (and I do) I don’t think he was groomed and exploited the same way MJ/WM were. Kudos to his parents for that I guess.
Bro humans are leave tons of food everywhere and are afraid of mice.
Height is such a bad thing to filter based on.
My wife’s best friend was complaining about how she goes on lots of dates but there’s never a real connection. She is a little taller than average but insisted she needed a guy at least 6’2" (so he would be at least X" taller than her when she was wearing X" heels).
That’s just a terrible priority if you want a real connection.
Because you want to have to tilt your head up at least 20° (?) to kiss while wearing high heels, you’re willing to eliminate 95% of bachelors? Have you considered the logistics of kissing while you’re not wearing high heels?
But the criterion was like a point of pride for her, like her ego wouldn’t allow her to look for someone less than 6’2". Super weird. Just not a good way to find a partner.
