So I guess that's basically an admission that he violated his oath.

Also looking for this. I signed up weeks ago but haven't had an invite yet.

What currency is that in?

[–] FarceMultiplier 3 points 1 year ago

Currently. I've got none.

We homeschool in Canada and have done so long before the pandemic. Technically, what we do is distance education, as my kid has teachers, a proper curriculum, assignments, etc. She's absolutely thrived with this, where rural public schools were a nightmare of bullying and neglect.

But here there are rules and real requirements. Based on Oliver's video, homeschooling in the US is an utter shitshow. The anti-intellectualism in the US is incredibly bad.

Oh good. Time for a proper discovery.

Clickbait has been around as long as the media has.

It might surprise you to learn that Canada is really big, not everyone lives in cities, and some places are inaccessible by transit.

DaVinci Code. I've owned it twice without starting.

Though popular, I've also heard it's far overrated.

Trust corporations to ruin something people enjoy.

The app on android was fine for a while, but the past few days it keeps logging me out and then my account is no longer saved. If I enter my account info it appear to have me logged in for a refresh or two, but then I can't get to my profile and then I show up as Anonymous again.

Should I remove and reinstall?

 
 
 
 
 
 

Fun, but expensive! I picked it up on a side street near Town Centre Park, rode it down to Guildford, over to Johnson, then up to Walton. I'm a big guy (~250 pounds) and it struggled to climb Johnson...but without the assist I never would have made it.

The helmet was small for my big head, but it worked. It took me a few tries to scan the QR code and start riding. I'm not sure if that was my phone or the app's fault.

10 minute ride: $5.50, minus a $0.50 coupon for watching the safety video.

Overall, it's good for a quick one-way trip, maybe to the grocery store then transit or Uber on the way back with bags.

 

We just moved from a very rural area to a large city and am surprised at all the food delivery/rent-a-bike-or-scooter/ride-share/car-share/random delivery/etc. apps and services that are available. What do you find you get the most use of and most value for money?
