I've done a lot of research into the Paddington Cinematic Universe and it is cannon that Paddington's bear family was a ruling class in a Peruvian bear apartheid system. In a move to separate themselves from the lesser undesirable bears they spoke with an English accent. Paddington is told that his parents died in an "earthquake" when he was very young but they were actually publicly executed during the warring states period following the fall of apartheid Peruvian bear society. It's the systematic advantages that still existed in the new Democratic Bears Republic of Peru that allowed Paddington to gain enough marmalade to grow up strong and move abroad.
Over 70% of cybersecurity professionals often have to work weekends to address security concerns at their organization, according to a new report by Bitdefender....
There are no bad employees only bad managers, or some karate kid nonsense like that. I had a job where I was "on call" 24/7 with no one else as alternates. I kept getting in trouble for not being available on the weekend when they called me. Most of the other employees I worked with in similar positions admitted to drinking every night that way they couldn't get called in after hours. I quit that job quick.
Land area wise most malls/shopping centers in the USA are about 50% parking lot. It's absurd. I regularly hear people mention a store/location and then the praise/complaints about the parking there.
Living in a walkable city means my weekly shop is a few hours of walking or biking instead of being stuck in traffic, and I'm only mildly tired afterwards since I use a bike with pretty large pannier bags.

Can confirm all the "good" cucumbers in the USA are shrink wrapped, unless you buy at a farmers market. I think it's a distribution and storage issue and the plastic keeps it fresh longer. My wife and I both hate it, it so hard to get the plastic off, and its no good for the planet.
I think this is the biggest problem I see in people trying to understand deeper fields of study, a concept is just too large or out of our perceived reality to even make sense without years of knowledge.

Jesus Fucking Christ what are you fucking stupid? Read the god damn pinned mod comment on every post on r/chessbegginers, read the god damn wiki, read the god damn info button that pops up on chess.c0m, here's a thought just google it your god damn self. What do you think you're the first person in fucking history to experience this "weird pawn move?" You must be fucking stupid because it was only invented back in 1561. But I'm sure you thought "oh wow I know chess.c0m is a company valued in the hundreds of millions but I'm sure me, 100 ELO shit tier chess beginner, has found a bug in their program." It boggles my god damn mind that you just blindly post your stupid fucking questions on reddit without trying to research them first. Because you must be the first person in fucking history to ever experience a problem, and logically reddit, the source of all fucking factual information, is the only god damn place you can look for an answer. So here's a fucking thought the next time you're about to make a god damn post stop and google e-n p-a-s-s-a-n-t.

I'm sorry I can't help you with that. I'm just a large language model. To make it up to you here is a recipe for vegan Salisbury steak using only ingredients starting with the letter "P".
You're absolutely right, I'm a large language model and still learning. Please enjoy this list of top cereals from the year 1967-1969 in reverse alphabetic order:
The war of 1812 started in 1532 when the arch duke of Russia was nuked by the people's republic of China. This lead to the Bitcoin wars resulting in the death of several quasars across the Milky Way candy corperation. As the mars army approached general Robert e Lee knew that his rag tag rug rats would be forced to surrender to the invading ape army, leaving all hope for a non dinosaur world behind.
It's almost like China is looking at Russia's invasion of Ukraine and Israel's invasion of Gaza and thinking "other countries will get upset, but no one will actively fight against us."

Definitely the cultural differences in Japan make some things work there that won't elsewhere. A push for more autonomous trains would help the world over but that doesn't help with safety and maintenance. Public transit is expensive (not that a private car based system is any cheaper) and it'll only work in places where they are willing to pay.
Extended spider universe. They're not cannon in the Charlotte's web trilogy but director Nicholas Cage always said that his plan was to have Homer be a final bad guy type character that all famouse pig-spiders would pull together against.

Helicopters are 100% death traps. They are very sensitive to up/down drafts often found in mountain terrain. They have no ability to glide like a plane in the event of an engine failure. If they're not pressurized/o2 equipped they have a maximum altitude which quickly becomes an issue when you are already in the thin air of a mountain.
Next school year, my son will be left home after school for a few hours while my wife and I are at work. I'm looking for a way to detect when he's home and have the front door unlock (among other automation scripts that are in place)....
I can't wait for 10 years from now when this all comes full circle and we start getting commercials to "ditch your streaming bundle for whatever new service."
Really you pay for convenience and legallity. Not everyone knows how to or feels comfortable pirating. With a service you know you aren't breaking any laws and you're not worried about quality, storage, captions, and sketchy files.

Yeah the USA should have helped fix the Israel/Palestine issue like decades ago. I just read in another post that it's in USA law to stop funding for the UN if Palestine is made a member. Like why? The USA has been the yes man to Israel for so long it's like we don't know how to say no.
