  • Yeah like I said. Plus it doesn't look like they've ever used it without being asked.

  • Not really. They're part of the Commonwealth, an association of former British colonial possessions, and "recognize" the British monarch as their own monarch. The monarch (King Charles, currently) has a representative in Canada known as the Governor General. They do a ton of stuff like appoint Prime Minister, heads of the Provinces, dissolving parliament, etc.

    However they almost exclusively can only act when asked to by Parliament or the Prime Minister. They also do ceremonial stuff. They do have some emergency power however it's never been used in the post-independence era.

    Basically no, not really. King Charles (King of Canada) could technically try and like dissolve the parliament or something but it would cause a constitutional crisis that would probably just end up removing the whole Canadian Monarchy thing.

    But they are strong allies.

  • It's Wikipedia. Get some sources and start editing then.

  • USA. English fluent, decent Spanish.

  • Couldn't have happened to a worse POS

  • Click MSDL not "Microsoft"

  • Intellectual property is bullshit

  • You're looking at spending USD $2500 which is quite a lot.

    Building your own is a much better option and you can make a VERY good PC for that budget. I understand though that it's not easy to research this stuff if you are not familiar. Maybe if your son likes gaming offer to let him research and pick his own parts and you will pay for it? It will also make it feel like it's truly his own.

  • No in the US it's almost standard practice

  • That's not elemental, metallic mercury. It's methylmercury which is easily absorbed by the body and very toxic.

  • From my understanding no, not elemental mercury. Other forms can be much worse though. The main danger with metallic, elemental mercury is inhaling mercury vapor, and even that would be incredibly hard to die from. (Though can have other effects at lower levels)

    However the broken thermometer could introduce open wounds which could do something I'm not sure.

    Here's a guy swishing some around his mouth, he explains more about how the body generally can't absorb elemental mercury. Not through skin or mucus membranes. https://youtu.be/DNpdMz0Cfv0

    He's been tested and has not shown to have unusually high levels of mercury in his blood.

  • Wow Voyager is such a tribute to Apollo that we even have a "one day I promise" tablet layout that has yet to appear.

  • The one bug that's always super annoyed me: clicking on a photo in my feed and when I swipe out it takes me to the "communities" tab where you choose Home/Local/All and it completely loses my place in my feed

  • Seems like not much of a dilemma

  • Inside the Capitol? Would not have been feasible.
