Toronto, and agreed. Although I’m shocked to hear Whitehorse isn’t dull. Where were you in Australia?

Interesting! I’m not shocked to hear it, as an owner of a unit i wouldn’t want people banging up walls with these items every time they move.

So I live in Canada, but grew up in Australia. In Canada, you inherit the fridge and washer/dryer of the apartment when you move in. Back in Australia, fridges and washer/dryers are often things you need to bring along on your own

I think we just took symbolics.com down. Doesn't load right now for me, i'm wondering how much traffic it normally sees.

I think it depends on a lot of factors. i.e. how much money you have, education background, prior experience and very significantly the country you're coming from. Not to discount your experience, i am sure you've been through a l

Have you tried to do either? I’d love to hear what you’re basing this claim on.

This ultimately comes down to the fact that each state in the US behaves like an individual country in many ways, especially when we talk about taxation. It doesn’t jive well with the current lay of the Internet, and it will be interesting

I struggle with this. Generally I’d rather be involved so at least i know the decisions being made were made by someone not trying to achieve a pure evil outcome. I trust myself, but i certainly do not trust most others. Having said that, y

Your last paragraph was what I came here to say: I fly a small Cessna 172 and when i first started to fly i was being cleared to solo and the instructor who cleared me gave feedback on my landings at the end. His main remark was "You&#

I never said it would be easy, and i certainly don’t have a solution. Having worked very closely with old school media companies, being acquired by one, and trying to contribute to the issues...yeah, maybe I’m just exhausted by the problem,

Probably true, but just an opportunity for someone to produce something local and not paper based. Most products are designed for mass markets, it'd be great to see something work for a large group of smaller community in the way newsp

Here I was thinking George was up to something! In all seriousness, this really should be updated, but somehow omitting "state of" sounds more powerful to me...although I'm not sure why I feel this way?

I signed up for both Meridian and EQ bank. Both supported various 2FA options. I only used them as a higher interest savings account (One was 1.5% the other was 2%, so yeah, low but not terrible - I've since moved that tax liability to

Maybe, that depends on the implementation. I don't believe they allow password resets from Easyweb via SMS, so i believe in this case it's at worst "as good as it was before", and only when they've managed to hijack
