The person in the article is seeming to dig their heels in using bad logic.

I would not apply for something that I would not qualify for.
I applied for the funds.
Therefore I qualify for the funds.

Depends on the share structure.

If the shares are retractable, then the corporation can buy them back whenever they feel like it. The shareholders consented to this at the point of allotment, because they are supposed to have read the articles before purchasing.

The monostructure of shares is one of those things that movies/t.v. shows nearly always gets wrong. I was happy that Succession got it right, because they definitely needed to for that story.

If you've ever heard "I now own 51% of this company!!" on a show, they are hand-waiving things so hard. Some resolutions need a larger than 2/3 majority by the laws of the country/region for specific tasks, and some corporations have extremely restrictive quorum requirement.

There's even more than one Power over Ethernet 2s, and both of them are good games, often played by similar groups of people.

The song is titled "AI". It was made 5 years ago, so it's not a product of an LLM.

Doesn't really seem like industrial though.

Two issues:

  1. You can choose all answers on multiple choice questions, including choices that are mutually exclusive.
  2. a lack of definitions of terms. Is a town with 150 people "urban" because you have a street address and most people don't work in another town/city, is it "suburban" because you need to go to a different town to buy groceries, or is it "rural" because that's how most people who live there self-identify?

There's one rule in the sidebar for this community.

Keep the original title when submitting an article. You can put your own commentary in the body of the post or in the comment section

I don't enjoy or like public figures. Having never met them, I cannot like them. I do enjoy the works or products of some people, and knowing the person(s) who created something can influence my chances of consuming it.

There are some people who have done, or accused of doing bad things, but they have created works that I enjoyed.

AKA, I never "liked" Neil Gaiman. But I do like American Gods.

Yves kinda specialized in foods that fit into the "my 14 year-old decided to be a vegetarian" category. Something that you can swap out one thing for something else without too much effort, and still make a school lunch or tacos.

Don't get me wrong the veggie dogs and sandwich slices were great, but I think the market has changed. The average Canadian doesn't seem to be scared of a block of tofu anymore, especially with how many kitchens have an airfrier.

That means you're a rapist.

Colour Red, and the band name contains a month.

Unless you care about seals, you are likely looking for something closer to "va faire foutre tes seins", go fuck your tits.

I assume that rule 2 is more of a "don't post memes that contain politicians", since nearly everything that we say or do is political in some sense.

 

Six Feet Under

 

If you just look up the name of the song, many sites will now prompt anti-self harm messages instead of showing you results.

 
 
 
 

Both bands have umlauts in their names, solely for stylistic reasons

"Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes"

 

I mean, this is the same Trinity Western that wasn't allowed to open up a law school because they are garbage, right?

They only started to consider dropping their homophobic ways after their law school bid was rejected.

It requires members to abstain from using vulgar language, lying or cheating, stealing, using degrading materials such as pornography, and "sexual intimacy that violates the sacredness of marriage between a man and a woman."

While that rule effectively bars anyone who is unmarried from having sexual relations, it's the reference to "man and a woman" that is considered discriminatory against LGBT people. Same-sex marriage became legal in Canada in 2005.

And Janet, get real. Not being allowed to open a law school because you discriminate against others, doesn't count as a loss in diversity.

Janet Epp Buckingham, a TWU professor who helped develop the law school proposal, said she was saddened by the ruling.

"We feel that this is a loss for diversity in Canada"

Edit: It looks they stopped making students promise to be straight in 2018, but they didn't drop it for the staff.
