Apparently Marilyn Manson playing Paul was just one of the first internet rumours and isn't true, which in itself is a pretty facinating piece of history.

I love the battery powered blinds on the master bedroom. I can control them with an app (1000+ downloads on google play lol) or remote control.

As a Canadian, Hawaii really don't feel Canadian. Would they be better off as their own thing?

I thought Alaska could join as a territory and not a province but then realized that Alaska has more population than the 3 territories combined and then it's still over 6 times more.

Some required listening before joining: A Canadian comedy debate on whether O Canada is the best national anthem

As an Ubuntu user, I would never say "Long live Ubuntu".

He's got a bunch, but he's never met them.

I wanted to look this up with my brand of tea, and they do line their cellulose bags with plastic.

From https://tetley.ca/pages/faq

100% of our portfolio is in paper tissue format. Currently the majority of our tea bags are made from natural plant fibres with a thin inner layer of a plastic material called PP which enables the bags to be heat sealed to keep the tea firmly in the bag (0.03 g per bag). Recently, we transitioned our Orange Pekoe range to plant-based tea bags which are made with PLA tissue. PLA is a bioplastic derived from plant sources. Using plant-based tea bags across all our products is an important part of our sustainability strategy and commitment to reduce the use of non-renewable plastics in our business.

Ugh. I stayed far away from those David's Tea completely plastic bags but was really hoping that cellulose bags would be fine. Turns our they just have to put plastic in everything. I don't want plastic anywhere near hot water that I'm consuming.

Drake raps? I thought he just gets bored and starts mumbling and someone records it and puts it to music.

I don't think I've seen this meme format where Anakin and Padmé are reversed. Love it.

This isn't the same though. Trump called Trudeau a Governor by accident and got a pretty big response out of that. All of a sudden these ideas of making Canada a state popped into his head and he keeps posting it because it gets attention. If we had've just ignored him he wouldn't get traction.

We pretty much need a law in Canada that says stop publishing Trump stories.

Happy to be back on .ca. But unlike reddit, I just used a different instance for a while. I think there's some way to synchronize account settings across instances, but I'm not sure where that information is.

Oh, the way it was talked about I thought BigscreenVR was an apple product. My bad.

I'll check that out! Thanks!

Boom, now there is no iPhone requirement to buy the product.

I mean, that's totally the point. Apple loves their walled garden.

I love the idea of sous vide but I associate hot water and plastic with leeched chemicals and microplastics.

The jump slide feels weird to me in 8. Like it sends you the wrong way first, then the turn happens. Bikes seem different though so maybe I'm just not used to the physics.

Scrubs has the best bromance ever. JD and Turk have a heterosexual relationship because they are best friends and don't care that others think they're in love with each other. They are, but they also have other relationships to fulfill their sexual needs.

Charlie from all dogs go to heaven.

I had that level down so good. It's the level where Mike really shines since why would you want anyone else to get hurt?

The technodrome was my killer level. There just wasn't enough room to manouver and you could so easily spawn those flying rock troopers. Ugh.

Maybe someday I'll go back and actually beat the game after watching a playthrough.

Because Phantasmagoria had 7 CDs, my friends and I used it as a benchmark for internet speeds. Usually to mock how big the game was.

Eg. "My brand new 56k modem could download Phantasmagoria in less than 200 days!"
