If you took 9th grade science you would know that bitumen is a form of crude oil and then you wouldn’t have written this pretentious post making a point based purely in semantics.

When we sell ninety percent of our oil to the states, we actually kind of need them too.

Canadian oil is produced by private companies. 90% of oil is sent to the US.

Its a huge leverage point but it would absolutely devastate the canadian economy to do that.

We arent trying to self immolate here.

Liberals larping as leftists? Communists?

Man you extremists are brutal.

You leave absolutely no space for nuance.

I love when the dipshits out themselves like this

Its painful to think this photo is probably not even 10 years old

You have to seek out albums these days, you can find some good ones still from skilled artists

Its a bargaining chip.

Because ease of use and simplicity go a long way.

Its about mass appeal, not quality.

Normal people dont want to have to know CLI

The fact that you cant use Linux without at least some form of understanding of CLI is why it will never supersede windows.

Im curious if the midterms will bring unrest.

For one, we’re talking federal.

And two, is he in the epstein files? Did he traffic humans?

Its widely considered as the standard metric for general intelligence.

That’s not to say it is perfect or doesnt have gaps, it doesn’t assess creativity, EQ, rational thinking, wisdom or impacts from socioeconomic.

However what is does measure are things like abstract reasoning, pattern recognition, working memory.

Its one of the strongest single predictors of academic performance, job complexity learning, and overall occupational success, and those things pretty obviously correlated with general intelligence.

Thats already happened.

These data centers are for AI to scrape data from you, that’s it.

Dont conflate things.

Kinda depends what your write

We may vote for idiots, but we absolutely do not vote into pedophiles, human traffickers, criminals, etc.

No, he should be writing to his congressman, he should be writing letters to the president, the VP, the secretary of whatever.

He should write to the dickhead ambassador

Tell it to your congressman and president guy. Tell your friends and family to tell it to those people.

We know average Americans dont hate us, but the US administration sure does.

IQ is actually one of the most stable metrics we have for intelligence. It does change with brain development but its also a comparative amongst your age group so your IQ remains very stable throughout your life.

It’s not to say you didnt mess up on your test at one point, or that someone who is having a mental episode cant distort it via anxiety or whatever

That may be true, but do Chinese EVs smell like steak and seat 35?

Didn’t think so.

Ive been here less than a week and have encountered multiple extremists, schizo level posts, and just ludicrous positions to take.

It’s clear that things like moderates and centrism dont have much of a home here.

It is what it is but ill say this.

Do not be afraid to just block them, theres not that many people here.
