Yes I agree the US has enshrined freedom of speech Canada not so much it's more an unspoken unofficial agreement. But I'd say it evens since the US seems to push the limits of prosecution on free speech and Canadian authorities just don't

They should put some of that money into the multiplayer servers they're terrible! I just played, tried to play, six games and each one crashed kicking everyone off. Six in a row. Other times too it's bad, it's worse now than it ever has be

As a Canadian I bet I have far more Internet freedom than a US citizen does I don't have to fear being flagged as a downloader of movies by media corp swat teams. I'd say any person in any western nation would think their country is more f

Yes I care very much! Proprietary equipment and exclusive repair rights is terrible for consumers we need choices and alternatives. At least now, staying with the car example, even if I can't fix it or don't know how at least I can take it

A woman in Halifax bought a SMART car she was the second owner, the engine failed and she was told it was unserviceable since the engine had to be replaced entirely it was a single unit. The replacement engine was $14,000 for a $5,000 car!

I don't buy that argument for all devices, maybe for you it's OK. A clogged PCV valve, a small one-way valve for engine gasses, is a common problem the part is about $5.00 and you remove/install with a socket wrench. Or the air filter whic

Or just buy the thing that you want printed in 3D. Most times it's a small item such as a connector or some small thing, like a small part to fix your toilet.

I'm using a Macbook Pro with a 512GB SSD but I dual boot so really if I boot into Mac or Win each only have 128GB available not including what the OS uses of that 128GB. My plan was to triple boot but not with such limited space. Oh and th

Canadian here. Pandora and Hulu flag me as a non-US resident, Rdio worked although I didn't proceed with signup. Netflix I already get but very limited compared to the US. edit: nevermind I'm a dumbass. It's like unblockus I understand now

Canadian here but I'm curious wouldn't it make sense for voting machines to have independent dual screens instead of a single screen where the possibility of a calibration error could exist?

I work with a few hundred cameras over my head each day I'm used to it and I know the people who control the cameras, maybe that's what bugs people the most; not knowing who controls the cameras? The equipment, from Pelco, is pretty advanc

I don't think it was anticompetitive reasons although the end result was that I believe it was farmers created a market for butter that margarine would benefit from. As for PB I'm not a dairy farmer.

It's weird how almond, soy or coconut liquids can legally be called "milk" none of those sources have nipples. Coffee is liquid from fermented beans similar to soy it's no more milk than soy is. I know here in Canada for decades margarine

Downloaded, giving it a try. The closest stations to me are in Halifax or Sydney none on PEI or in NB. I tend to watch the barometer I have in my house whenever we get hurricanes or near misses. If it works I'll let you know if not I'm pro

I wonder if the late 1990s to roughly now will be seen as a audio, video, still picture dark ages of sorts. The average consumer was astounded by low quality mp3 audio over a record, cassette tape or later on compact disc. Sort of like fas

As a Canadian I have to say this movie is disappointing. Are people in the US unaware of what really happened?

I thought even at that altitude there would still be a significant amount of atmosphere but apparently not. Even 39km there's still a lot of atmosphere to go but I guess it's pretty thin. When interviewed Kittinger said something "To all

What I find chilling is in the age of the internet the comment sections on news sites are heavily censored (e.g. CBC). Which seems to allow a strange mix of viewpoints but what you don't see is what worries me. As for insulting religions it

Interesting I didn't think it could be done. From that I understand normal thermal cameras can't have a silicon CCD and need to be actively cooled.

I'd say legally the term 'performance' could have a very broad definition and could be referred to as any 'act'.

I can't see how second best sorbitol and the best being Xylitol are any better than sugar they're sugar alcohols which have the effects of a laxitive. How about just not eating so much sugar, and if you're diabetic try stevia that's what m
