  • Depending on what you are doing with them, the drives can work just fine running through the USB ports, which can be faster than hard drives in most cases. I have my content - which is like 90% of the data space - on USB hard drives and the databases to manage them on the internal M.2 drive. Works fine for something like Immich.

  • Isn't that what the current one does constantly???

  • For decades now, my wife and I have used "Kleeni" as the plural of "Kleenex".

  • Seriously, it should be "octopoda".

  • It is an "octothorpe".

  • "If so why don't people buy more 70's cars?". IMHO, this is actually the whole point of the OP's question.

  • Everyone is concentrating on the crumple zones and safety at the crash. Remember that modern cars have features that make it easier to avoid the crash in the first place. Antilock brakes. Traction control. Lane assist/warning. Better headlamps, adaptive headlamps. Better suspension and handling. All things to avoid crashes.

    All good reasons to avoid the 70's car.

  • They explained it more clearly later in the article. 4 weeks for the first year, then 1 week for each additional year of tenure. So a three year employee would get 4+2, which is the same as in Canada. But a 4 year employee would get 4+3 which is less than the statutory (1+1)*4 in Canada.

    In Canada, once you get to about 6 years of employment, you can start to expect (1+1+2) * (# years). With a cap of about 80 weeks. You'd bust past the woeful 26 week cap with just 7 years of service.

    And, BTW: You would need 23 years of tenure to hit that 26 week cap.

  • Interesting, that doesn't even meet the statutory requirements in Canada, which is 1 week severence+ 1 week in lieu of notice per year of employment. One top of that civil case law will generally add another 2 weeks per year of employment for employees who have been with a company for more than 5 years. There are other factors involved in this however. The whole thing generally tops out at about 20 months, too.

  • Around our house, it's "Department Store Christmas". I can only take a few hours at a time before I switch it back to "Groove Salad".

  • It used to be much, much tighter, but I'm going back to the 1990's for this. Back then you needed to have a real-life presence across the country to get a top level .CA domain. Otherwise you needed to get one in a provincial subdomain, like .QC.CA or .ON.CA.

    Provinces might even demand that you get a municipal level subdomain.

    But no more.

    I seem to remember needing to show proof, like articles of incorporation...but that might have been for getting a VeriSign certificate.

    Last time I registered a . CA domain there was no verification of anything.

  • I totally agree. It has become second nature now...look on the label and if it says, "Made in USA", then put it back on the shelf.

  • Your boss's priorities are your priorities.

  • Beaker. Even has a smiley. *8-0

  • Pedants, not persnicks.

  • Then change the hours of the jobs, not the clocks.

  • I don't care about anything an actor says unless it's preceeded by "Action!" and followed by, "Cut!".

  • Religion ruins everything.
