So why would Valve do this? It may be a response to several law firms’ attempt to file “mass arbitrations,” wherein “hundreds or thousands of consumers bringing individual arbitration claims against the same company at the same time and over the same issue,” according to ClassAction.org. It’s essentially a loophole for class action waivers and arbitration clauses, though it still won’t end up in court.

Hit em right in the pocket book.

The answer depends on the country. In the US, review the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. In Canada, there is the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA) regulations and also the CRA requiring the individuals and businesses retain their records for up to six years.

if there’s some sort of way around this either with a lawyer or federal form or something.

Very unlikely.

It’s a feature, not a bug

Windows 98 -> Slackware dual boot (with big ol’ red grub screen) -> windows up to win 10 -> debian(laptop) win10 (pc)

Gonna try getting a new m.2 drive and dual booting soon to test playing the games I like on Linux. If all goes well, I’ll be moving away from windows

(theres a mac version but isn’t the same)

There was a mac version. But it is hitting EOL in August

After using AI chat stuff like this and chatgpt, ive come to the conclusion that building prompts is akin to building search queries for search engines. Wherein using the right terms leads to better results.

Without any legal penalties.

But doing so, would surely risk intels reputation and future contracts with the government. The government could also impose other restriction or penalties on intel for non compliance.

But like you say, if intel does come up short, likely nothing will happen (unless some form of negligence is discovered)

Ok, now I’m confused, the article you linked says:

1. Federal government was justified in using the Emergencies Act

But in this (OP) article, it says:

Federal Court Judge Richard Mosley ruled it was unreasonable for the federal government to use the Emergencies Act to quell the protests.

And then this article says:

Ottawa has filed to appeal a Federal Court decision that found its invocation of the Emergencies Act in response to the 2022 Freedom Convoy protests was unjustified.

Anyone out there want to loop me in?

why is it 30 seconds instead of 60 seconds? I’m pretty sure every other TOTP I’ve seen is 60 seconds. My jaded take: the blind pursuit of “better security” even though… what does this even imply? Someone has 30 fewer seconds to read the code over your shoulder and log in on their device?

30 seconds is the default for TOTP implementations.

I’m curious to know what CRA does, but I’m away from my PC right now.

Yes, you can stop getting SMS messages.

edit: formatting

command! -range -nargs=1 PadColumns call PadColumns(<line1>, <line2>, <args>)

function! PadColumns(start, end, columns)
    execute a:start.','.a:end.'s/\(.*\)\zs\s*$/\='.'repeat(" ", a:columns - len(submatch(1)))'
endfunction

Use by typing in Normal mode :PadColumns 20. This will add spaces after the line or selected lines to the column you specify (in this case, 20).

You could probably improve this by getting the length of the longest line and so you dont need to specify the specific column to add spaces to (20), and instead just add say 5 spaces after longest line for all lines.

I do not think that this is an existing feature in neovim, however this seems to work :%s/\(.*\)\zs\s*$/\=repeat(' ', 15 - len(submatch(1)))

Change 15 to the column desired. You could probably create a function where you pass the column number you want so that you dont have to type this string all the time.

During a legislature hearing on Thursday, Antoine Bittar said he had been advocating for tougher drinking and driving legislation when the CAQ offered an opportunity for him and his partner, Élizabeth Rivera, to meet minister Geneviève Guilbault at an October 2023 fundraising cocktail.

Bittar said he and Rivera each paid $100 — the maximum annual political donation — because he felt it was a chance to press their cause and keep it from stagnating. The couple said they were offered four minutes with the minister, two minutes per person.

I am commenting on this section of the article:

“We and others have shown that these nanoplastics can be internalized into cells and we know that nanoplastics carry all kinds of chemical additives that could cause cell stress, DNA damage and change metabolism or cell function.”

Somarelli said his own, yet-to-be-published work has found more than 100 “known cancer-causing chemicals in these plastics.”

And also

What’s disturbing, said University of Toronto evolutionary biologist Zoie Diana, is that “small particles can appear in different organs and may cross membranes that they aren’t meant to cross, such as the blood-brain barrier.”

My point being that it’s unlikely that bottled water is the only source of these plastics.

I wouldnt be so quick to blame all of this on water bottles when a high percentage of all the food we consume is packaged in plastic and also the left overs sitting in the fridge.

I hope the gov (fed, prov, muni) are prepared to invest big time in infrastructure.

He’ll probably get better service if he calls his credit card company (hopefully he ordered using a credit card) and having them reverse the charges. He’ll maybe have to wait 30 days, but since he has a police report and amazon isn’t cooperating, I think the cc company will go ahead and do it.

Sure, he wont have a watch but at least he wont be out $2k

Reminds me of the “Op” wars on IRC. All users would be given @ status and the point was to kick everyone before you got kicked. Writing scripts for this was my first “taste” at programming.

I would think it was pretty obvious… THEY’RE JERKS.

But what can you expect from a species that’s always looking down on others?

Thank you, i will see myself out.
