Where did they go? The “scoring winger” post was comedy gold.

That’s technically 4 times, so we’re safe. Too frequent and too infrequent ranch refill complaints avoided.

I wonder what would happen if there was an AI panel.

Would people suddenly embrace AI more? Or would they all suddenly turn against AI?

They killed that guy who burned the Koran in Sweden. I guess he proved his point.

I occasionally see "out of thanks" posts, and I think some of you are just way too generous with your thanks.

How many are we allowed to hand out in a day? Is it capped at five? 25?

I think I ran out at least once but it was an overjoyous topic day like a huge Flames win, trade, draft pick, or something like that where there's a lot of universal agreement.

We need a thanks given per own post count ratio bar graph. Whose thanks have the most value?

Also I was arguing last night the bill burr billy corgan thing was all a shtick but are they really brothers? Not just bald guys named bill from Boston?

Had purchased a Starlink Mini at the beginning of January when they just came out. Thought it would be an awesome back-up for my business in case Internet went out since most of our files are in the cloud.

Just returned it yesterday, though. Fk that anti-Semite. I'll deal with a down Internet before giving him a penny.

You can get cell based internet backups. I think Shaw had them for $10 a month add-on.

BigFloss should be investigated for making the floss too slippery, forcing people to use more (need to make more loops around your fingers). It is an outrage.

I thought about that for my mom's campsite, but she just wouldnt use it much and the cost was high and then...well...Elon. Screw that loser.

So my office has had a lot of construction in the neighbourhood which has knocked out internet from time to time, so I did get a cell-based backup for my business. Since the halt of Greenline nonsense I havent had to use it yet, but it is here...just in case.

But then they keep trying to upsell me on bandwidth, I get something around 4 calls a week for upsales.

Guys...I'm sending Tax Files, they're less than 100KB, they're tiny! I dont need the CIA's Server Farm or anything!

"But we can upgrade...." I dont CARE! I dont need it and I dont want to pay for it.

The one thing I wanted, the one thing they roped me into was that cell backup in case my internet goes down. That does not give you Carte-Blanche to Ad-Spam my company whenever the mood strikes you!
