  • The Prime Minister of a parliamentary democracy is selected from the members of parliament by the party with the most seats. The Conservatives, Canada's far-right party, campaigned on making Pierre Poilievre, their leader and an existing member of parliament, Prime Minister if they won the most seats in yesterday's election. The Liberals, Canada's center-right party, campaigned on keeping Mark Carney, their leader, as Prime Minister.

    The Liberals won, so Carney will continue to be PM until he steps down or a different party is elected to more seats than the Liberals. Poilievre, on the other hand, couldn't retain his seat in Parliament, so even if the Conservatives had won the most seats, he couldn't be PM.

    Imagine if the US President had to be a Senator and Kamala Harris had lost her Senate seat while trying to campaign for the Democrats to get a majority in the Senate and make her President.

  • That also removes one of the few advantages of slotted screws, namely that they can use more than one size of driver.

    I'm mostly annoyed by the horizontal slipping of slotted screws. It's bad enough when driving manually, but even a ratcheting screwdriver, let alone a drill or impact, is far faster and easier with screws that have closed edges.

  • Not like Hamas wouldn't genocide the shit out of Israelians if they had the means.

    Well, yeah, because they've been radicalized by having their families brutally killed in front of them. Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
