I've met plenty of people who weren't rich enough who were still certain it was a tax and not a benefit.

If you look up sausages around the world, most regions are covered. Historically, from a survival perspective, you didn't want to throw away any meat, and grinding up less palatable parts is an easy way to do that. Often, that led to sausages, but American Aboriginals often went with pemmican, Scots did haggis, and I'm sure there were other ways in other regions. The only regions I haven't seen without a historical sausage is Africa, but the Roman Empire had chopped meat dishes, so the idea may have been exported thousands of years ago even if it didn't spontaneously originate there.

I'm pretty sure that translates in any culture that eats meat and has gone to war. There might have been an isolated village of vegetarians sometime in history who would have been confused.

8600 from 4 dealerships in 3 days, or 12 dealership-days. So, about 700 per dealership per day on average. The 1200 in one day is likely the max, which is typical for these kind of statements.

Yes, keep on reminding people how much better Canada is. And, unlike oil, this kind of better can't be exported by invading.

Call him Capo Trump. He'd probably think it's a compliment.

That was an interesting article. It's certainly possible that international trade would be better for our economy, but our infrastructure is lacking and our resources need new markets. Doing this may not directly help the economy as much, but it could help to build a foundation for strengthening our economy when these challenges are resolved, however that happens.

Also nice how they said questions like this aren't entirely out of their hands and need to be judged by the people via an election, but rather that this is a tool that can be abused, but they don't think there is evidence to indicate it was. Pretty balanced statement overall.

This highlights a big problem that people ignore when they say they want government to be run like a business. A business is concerned with what's best for them, not what's best for the customer. And this is certainly what's best for Musk, and likely not what's best for the people.

I'm not sure of the availability guarantees, but Oracle and other cloud services have free tiers for low CPU/RAM/storage needs. If the availability guarantees are there, this could be an option. It works fine for FoundryVTT and hasn't cost me anything for the last couple years, and I don't imagine your projected needs would outstrip Foundry's.

There is going to be a time when our kids and grandkids roll their eyes because we refuse to buy American. It will be fun.

Printers always go brr.
