I believe in Canada we have high standards for our potable water, unlike the UK for example our water heaters need to be up to par (UK typically has seperate taps AFAIK).

So no need to boil, also if you’re trying to get rid of chlorine you can just use Brita filters, carbon filters that restaurants use do the same AFAIK. Also even cities like mine which (at least at some point before now) had way more houses than apartments still chlorinated the entire city’s supply.

Filters are insanely good these days. I was thinking about getting a life straw, but there’s a slightly more expensive alternative that can do like 500x more filtering before it needs to be replaced, and comes with a pouch you can fill and then pour into a regular water bottle. Life straws are meant to be drank from directly, and the alternatives that company offers are just water bottles with life straws built in - so you put unfiltered water in the bottle itself… Probably gets gross or requires constant cleaning

The Netscape loading logo was pretty cool, and of course it took a while to load every page!

A bit later than what I’d call the early internet, I’d say my favourite memory was winning a Super Soaker CPS 2500 when I was 13.

Wait so the US is lying to you because they’re financially supporting Ukraine & with weapons, while they’re being fucking invaded, because Poland (an independent nation) decides to send ground troops into Russia (maybe to slow down the invasion of Ukraine???)

Seems to me like you’re operating under the assumption that the United States of America runs the entire world. They don’t.

It’s a good thing Russians don’t have religious claim to Ukranian land lest they get a free pass like Israel does

Sheesh. And all the muskites will still find a way to spin this as being the result of his genius…

😂 this is why I avoided programming, focused on hardware, and ended up cooking in kitchens lmao.

I was never a fan of sitting at a desk staring at a computer screen all day, even if I was good at it. Even with how complex hardware is these days, it feels more orderly and defined, if there’s m wrong with your rig, it’s most likely x, y, or z causing it, and it’s almost always x etc
