Asked why they remain in Canada even with their support for the administration, the homeowner said it’s because they have built a life in the country.

Somehow they support mass deportations in their own country, when those same deportees are saying the exact same thing.

Also this:

the reference to 2028 is a joke given that presidents cannot, under the U.S. Constitution, serve a third term.

Once it becomes clear this is what he's aiming for, this doofus will be 100% in support.

Well here's a nice example of a Streisand effect.

Not sure what the Liberal party, or guns, have to do with this article.

I don't think it's possible. Rock Auto doesn't list the country of manufacture. I'm pretty sure it's because very often the exact same item (part, brand, and serial number) is made in different factories in different countries. I've ordered the exact same thing and sometimes it says made in China, other times Mexico for example. I'm pretty sure this is true regardless of which retailer you order from, so unless you are physically looking at the item before you buy it, you probably won't be able to know. And these days, even going to my local parts store, they will most of the time need to order parts in from elsewhere.

If you're asking if there's a Canadian alternative to Rockauto, I'd also love to know.

For me it's Adobe. Stupid government and other forms I need for work. No available third party software will work on some of them, and I've tried them all. And for some dumb reason even having an Acrobat subscription won't let me fill them out on their (extremely buggy, by the way) web app.

Was never able to get it working with wine.

That, and the compatibility between Libreoffice (or other Linux office software) and MS Word is still terrible. I'm quite sure that's mostly due to shenanigans by MS. So if you have to swap documents back and forth between people (e.g. with track changes) it just doesn't work as well. And, like Adobe, the web app version of Word seems to be kneecapped in a few key places.

I have a feeling that Musk is gonna sue who he's gonna sue.

I suppose that could potentially drag Mastodon's developer into a legal fight (if X were to sue them), which would be costly and a distraction.

Please enlighten me. Isn't a bait and switch a thing only if you wind up paying more, unexpectedly and by fraudulent design?
