I think I often hope occasionally reporting comments helps slowly make the platforms better. But it really doesn't seem to 😞

What players do off the ice is irrelevant, what matters here is that there are teams that still want to do pride warmups, but they can't.

You haven't yet given a good reason for why teams shouldn't be able to use pride related jerseys during warmups, and that's because there really isn't a good reason.

Both can be true. And YouTube premium also addressed that issue.

Part of the reason YouTubers have 3rd party sponsor spots is because viewer an blocking makes their Adsense revenue unreliable.

YouTube premium helps address that for creators.

It wouldn't surprise me if some sponsors already demand viewership data to know how many people are skipping baked-in sponsor spots and uses that to pay creators less.

Finding more ways to avoid compensating creators isn't going to make the situation better.

Good news, this shit has zero impact on the game you're trying to watch.

Which is why banning it is so stupid. If you're such a huge bigot that being reminded that people who are different from you exist, and that reminder is enough to ruin hockey for you then that's on you.

Here in Canada it isn't granular, every alert is sent at the "presidential" level

The emergency alert system isn't meant for informational updates.

Using it to broadcast updates on when power is going to be restored isn't what it's meant for

What emergency safety features? Making a 911 call?

The last time a major weather event happened it was really hard to get updated information, the power was out, internet was down. I only had an old battery powered radio that still had an FM tuner.

As time passes fewer and fewer devices have the FM tuners, and it's less and less likely I have spare working batteries for them. A phone on the other hand, I'm already setup with backup batteries I can use to recharge it, I don't need to be as "prepared" to be able to stay up to date if it could still pick up the radio

He's a dem who doesn't seem to share any views with other Dems.

He singlehandedly delayed or outright prevented many large bills from going through.

When Bidens term is looked back upon, Manchin will be the force that prevented Biden from pushing though some of his more progressive plans.

This is very region dependent. But here in Canada we have 25-30 year mortgages broken up into 5 year terms, every 5 years we renegotiate our interest rate and have the option to switch lenders.

If your house value were to drop 75%, it might make it harder to switch lenders (does a bank want to lend you more than what the house is now worth).

I think there is an escape hatch here where if you stay with the same lender they will still accept you, but I honestly don't know much about the specifics.

Things would need to get pretty bad for this to actually matter (and I suspect the government might step in if it became widespread)

It may have been great, but not in a sustainable way.

For Epic those exclusive contracts were part of their advertising budget.

I honestly wonder how many indie games that started as an epic exclusive are still around today because of that exclusivity deal or if they only survived because eventually the exclusivity expire and they were able to list on other platforms

I think the concern lies in Alberta claiming they are entitled to more than 50% of the money currently in the fund

First past the post incentiveses two party systems, which is why people are desperate for ranked ballot, or something that can allow other parties to exist.

But it clearly says "Black Lives Matter" not "Only Black Lives Matter".

Fixed that for you.

There doesn't need to be an asterisk though. It's only a reminder to those who can't read.

"Black lives matter" isn't "only black lives matter", it was only meant as a reminder that black lives matter. Black people have always been killed more often by cops, and it's often brushed off like it doesn't matter. The black lives matter movement was meant to be a reminder that black lives also matter...

The phrase "all lives matter" was intentional misleading, like many of the talking points created and spread by right wingers trying to punch down minorities.

Up here in Canada they are currently doing it with "save our kids" while they are pushing laws to limit LGBT education in schools.

It's a lot of work staying on top of all the phrases right wing people are using against minorities 😞

The handout is dependent on the city updating their zoning laws to make building higher density easier.

The current liberal plan where they are giving money to help build houses in cities does require the city update their zoning related laws to make it easier for developers to build higher density things.

Unfortunately financial support is the main thing the feds can contribute, most of the other things fall under provincial jurisdiction, and it's clear the provinces don't intend on doing a thing.

Depends, a 200amp nearly for sure has capacity. A 100amp likely does, but depends how electrified they already are, but many smaller houses that still heat with natural gas will have lots of space left in a 100 amp service

20amp service? Lol, ya if you live in an RV park an EV might not be a great option for you.
