My partner had hers done before me the first time around, and I thought she was bullshiting me when she mentioned the cost or that she just didn’t read it correctly, the same way you did, so can’t blame you.

Metro Vancouver, we get plenty of things more expensive here, don’t ask me why, other than why not… (But some cheaper occasionally)

Edit: I should mention, they’re obviously fleecing the insurance company because they cover 2 cleanings a year, with no other limitations. I would never pay that shit.

Also some provinces claim to have been trying to make it easier for healthcare professionals, unfortunately I don’t know enough about it to tell whether there is any genuine truth to it or not, since politicians just get to state anything and not follow through or be accountable.

I vaguely recall this in relation to BC/NDP but don’t know if they made actual progress, anybody know more?

Cost of dental care in Canada is ridiculous (don’t know about US probably even worse there). One of the issues is that the dentists and hygienists are allowed to charge whatever the fuck they want. $400+ cleaning? Lol fuck that shit…a dentist in UK did cleaning for me within the cost of check-up so I wouldn’t have to go hygienist unless it was absolutely necessary, not just because “oh well you have insurance, let’s milk it dry and give insurance companies more reasons to deny claims and shit”. And that’s not even talking about everything else.

Sawed-off predecessor?

I guess you could say I had an unfair advantage, I was just rewatching some episodes over the last month, every now and then, and picked this one few days ago because I remember liking it from previous rewatches 😁

Bender gets made

We may find out next year, if the schedule for the case to be in front of a judge does not change for whatever mysterious reason.

It doesn’t outright say she was doing something illegal. But it does state she was working on her own business, another article mentioned it as well, that she was investing, feel free to use your non-american search engine of choice to find more. And that’s not what TN visa is for. I can imagine it would be easily abused (and likely is) by investing in your own business and sponsoring yourself, if the amount you invested isn’t enough to get you through the threshold for investor visa - which has been increased recently.

Multiple lawyers are quoted suggesting it was not a good idea to do what she did, one of them directly advising her, and hat she wouldn’t have had the same issue at Canada border, that just screams arrogance to me.

I’m not defending what US did here, but it’s like with boycotting US products…oh suddenly shopping in all those big corporation shops in Canada is fine as long as they fuck us over with Canadian products? It’s gotten real quiet about that real quick. Assholes can be on both sides, just different sizes, doesn’t mean you must support either.

I wouldn’t want that to happen to anyone it’s bullshit, and this is getting overzealous, making an example of someone. If you read all the details in the articles about this though, it appears that she was doing something borderline or outright illegal to begin with, and I’m finding it difficult to feel sorry for her in this instance.

She was advised by a lawyer not to cross the border the way she did and at the place where she did it, and she ignored that advice. She was on TN visa which was revoked back in November, yet she was supposedly investing in a startup? Wouldn’t that mean you should seek E2 or similar visa, what could have flagged her for the cancellation her original TN one?

I feel more sorry for the hiker from Germany, even if she may have been trying to stay with her boyfriend or whatever, as far as evidence suggests, at least she did more or less everything by the book and had appropriate visa and documents that wouldn’t have otherwise caused her any issues.

It sounds more like agreed in principle, and would only come into effect if/when Russia agrees.

And for everyone else who doesn’t want extra garbage on their phone it’s: switch to ‘Desktop Site’ > continue doing whatever else. This applies to both Firefox and Firefox Focus

No need promote/install more unnecessary stuff on your phones 🤦

Edit- that being said, I still include no script/ublock in FF and use FFF for yt videos when I don’t want to clog my Tubular history (newpipe fork with sponsor block) with useless stuff that I’ll never want to rewatch.

It does cost an arm and a leg though 😂 This was from one of the larger stores, it used to be cheaper before, but all this “inflation” was great opportunity to hike the prices up.

You can get it in small European shops in both UK and Canada, but also in one particular large supermarket in Canada

Not that it helps in your specific case, but just saying…

They should make him wear a big ass wall clock around his neck and claim it’s there to prove that the release is unedited.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t mean that much, if anything OpenRA is ahead of what the original engine was. The only issue is saw with OpenRA’s engine was the odd unit pathing every now and then, so perhaps that could be one thing for them to look at (not that it was consistently great in C&C)

I think you mean Richard Star, Patrick’s cousin that he didn’t even know existed…
They call him Dickie

Yeah, I assumed it’s Google’s fault, one way or another, regardless of browser being used. And even though I don’t recall it happening in desktop chrome, minor nuisance like that isn’t gonna make me switch.

Tubular on android also has option for forced highest resolution so that’s a nice bypass for any of google’s bs as I rarely bother opening videos in FF/FFfocus on phone

Videos take time to load - don’t care though, even if it’s about length of 5-7sec ad, but at least I don’t see it.
Videos almost never auto play to highest resolution, I have to manually select it, no issues once I do that though.

Those are about the two key things I’ve noticed. I returned to Firefox few.months back, but the above wasn’t an issue when I made the initial switch.

And no, there is no issue with my connection, everything else (streaming, games, torrents) works fine as it always did.

I use uBlock and NoScript

Sadly even if they’re not, it’s quantity over quality…just like the rest of the whole military there.
