Hello! I’m Québécois and as such happily defy all Canadian obligations. The USA gave the elections to the liberals by threatening Canada’s sovereignty. This is because the Conservatives favour the prairies, where there is a strong pro USA sentiment. Alberta’s PM Danielle Smith reminded everybody of that by conniving at Mar-a-Lago while the other provinces were trying hard to show a united front. In the meanwhile Conservative Leader Poilievre took forever to address the issue since he knew part of his base actually wants to be ’murican.

So by now Carney is PM for sure, but it’s not been called yet if it’ll be a minority or majority. I’m not excited about having a paragon of neoliberalism as federal leader (still better than Poilievre sigh) so I’m hoping for a minority.

Regularly rotating plants to keep them from being lopsided/unbalanced is traditional practice. On the other hand I’ve seen some argue on the 'net that this is purely for aesthetic reasons, unnatural and stressful. My two cents is that an indoor plant lives under different circumstances than an outdoor one since outside the light source moves across the sky everyday while indoor the window is stationary. Furthermore a strong unbalance can threaten the structural integrity of a plant so I think it’s more than aesthetics.

So whether you rotate your plants or not, someone somewhere will think you’re doing it wrong. It’s that sort of thing.

I think you underestimate how offensive casually using AI slop instead of human material to communicate comes off as. As you've just made clear, you're a mod and you intend to give the example so I urge you to get more informed about the many condemnable actions that go into generative AI.

for those days when you need a refresher

I spent entirely too long parsing this sentence. It’s the Friday dumb.

So basically "The wise man [questions] her

I have thought about it. They are not.

Celiac disease is an illness caused by an immune reaction to eating gluten. Gluten is a protein found in foods containing wheat, barley or rye.

If you have celiac disease, eating gluten triggers an immune response to the gluten protein in your small intestine. Over time, this reaction damages your small intestine's lining and prevents it from absorbing nutrients, a condition called malabsorption.

The intestinal damage often causes symptoms such as diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss, bloating or anemia. It also can lead to serious complications if it is not managed or treated. In children, malabsorption can affect growth and development in addition to gastrointestinal symptoms.

There's no definite cure for celiac disease. But for most people, following a strict gluten-free diet can help manage symptoms and help the intestines heal.

Gluten is in wheat, so it is in flour and in pasta. Fortunately there are other cereals that are gluten free and an increasing amount of products that are gluten free. Still is a challenge for the home cook!

That’ll be 3 points for me. Recognized Fantasio, Spirou & Panoramix. The rest went way over my head

BAKING IS LIFE… and got a little more challenging since we found out one of ours is celiac

Grew up hearing that vinyl at home like many in Québec ❤️

Tellement. La fixation que Legault a d’offrir des baisses d’impôt et de ne jamais au grand jamais les augmenter, pour qui que ce soit, ça fait très Starve the beast.

C’est de la médecine de guerre. On te répare juste assez pour pas que tu crèves, puis on verra pour la suite. Ça sent la fausse bonne idée : en amoindrissant la prévention, on va traiter plus tard et augmenter les coûts ainsi que la souffrance.

Bro de quoi tu parles. Lakay Nou est sur tou.tv. C'est un gros dix piasses par mois pour le voir avec pas d'annonces. Paies donc ton contenu québécois.

NOPE

A lot of good reasoning is going on already so I won't repeat what I've upvoted already.

What I'll add is that from a purely emotional perspective I am systematically turned off by AI output. It repulses me like a pond swarming with existential leeches. It bears a mark of contempt towards the human experience.

Having you forcibly pulled from The Zone by some colleague knocking at your office door to make sure you received their email is obviously painful, but this makes me realize that being forcibly pulled from The Zone in ANY way whatsoever is equally painful.

The tag is:

meta property="og:title" content="‘No quick wins’: China has the world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor"

An og:title meta tag basically means "hey, if someone posts this on their social media, use this as the title".

So yeah OP is off the hook
