Ha! At least your brain has the decency to recommend something else that'll be more fun. Half the time my brain just says "nah" to whatever I was about to do without giving me any alternatives so I just sit there, for a while, thinking about other things I could do instead.

It's certainly possible and even likely that there were people marching who just didn't give a fuck or were purposefully marching like shit, but as somebody who's served and marched plenty, you'd be surprised how quickly things get messy. It's easy, sure, but it can get out of hand quickly.

If one person goes out of step, especially with no cadence cues, those behind follow the one who's fucking up either consciously or subconsciously. Then the one who's leading the out of step march shuffles to get back in sync, forcing everybody behind them to have scramble to shuffle back into step. It's a domino effect.

Like I said, I won't say it's not possible that you're right, but if you were to watch any marching group you'd see people out of step in almost every case. Regardless of if they wanted to sabotage Trump's parade in this case, most of the people I served with wouldn't want to intentionally make their unit look like a bag of hammers - which sloppy marching does.

I think a lot of people are over analyzing this but like I said, it's still possible that what you believe is true.

I would pay a premium ticket price to get a lay down seat at the back of the plane and have no food service in that zone. That gets rid of the food sales loss, for which I have never paid for anyway, as I'd be paying a higher ticket price. I guess at that point there is still a concern regarding a mess, since I can bring my own snacks, but it's not like I would be getting some memory foam mattress with Egyptian cotton sheets with the way airlines would implement this anyway. I'd get a long ~~pleather~~ vinyl cushion with maybe a standard pillow.

It would be worse than what I got in the Navy, slightly, but still better than any shit airplane seat I've sat in.

The article mentions that the weather was affecting flights home for workers, not affecting the ability to vote. In this case, there's no need to delay the vote. The workers could've kept working and should've been offered accommodations due to a delayed flight home.

Waiting for the storm to pass would've included polling stations opening, remaining opening until voting closed, and accommodating workers who wouldn't have been able to leave on a plane as scheduled. Denying Canadians the ability to vote on election day so that the workers could ensure they made it home as scheduled to not be inconvenienced is unacceptable.

Edit: I was partially wrong, accessing locations was part of the article: "In several cases, it was not possible to recruit local teams. In other cases, harsh weather conditions have prevented access to communities."

Anti-Conservative sentiment in Quebec. The Bloc is never going to hold a majority, so strategically at this time the Liberals were the obvious choice to keep the Conservatives out of power. Among other things.

The vehicle will absolutely collect data, but likely won't be transmitting or collecting personal data (which is mostly done within vehicle infotainment units). It'll be stored within the hardware which is much more preferred but I'd still consider that "data collection".

Most vehicles have an Event Data Recorder (EDR) which records and stores vehicle data in the event of a collision/abnormal operation above a certain threshold. They're mandated in many countries. You can connect to these systems, some easier than others, and get vehicle data such as vehicle speed, accelerator pedal position, brake activation, changes in velocity, yaw rate, steering wheel angle, steering wheel angle rate of change, ABS/TC activation, number of ignition cycles, odometer readings, etc. Newer vehicles with enhanced safety systems (of which this vehicle doesn't sound like it's intended to have) can provide even more data including but not limited to proximity to a target object and camera images.

It's not data in the sense of personal or tracking data, but it's still data.

What a gentleman.

I'd love to hear how you came to that conclusion.

How is it allowed? That's the American way, baby!

How is it possible? People buying Apple products. Their walled garden seems to be a point of pride amongst many users. Not many people actually need Apple products, it's a choice.

What's the youngest you'd be willing to date, yourself?

And the fact that he's sitting down could be taken as poking fun at people with mobility issues

Is eyeliner a specifically queer thing now?
