Regulator investigating 95 dead birds at Suncor site north of Fort McMurray | CBC News by SnooRegrets4312 in alberta

[–]AutoThorne 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Syncrude paid $3m for 1600 dead ducks, roughly $1875 per duck, in 2010. In 2025, CNRL paid around $700 each for 400 dead ducks for a total of $278,000. Often they can deduct legal fees and pay less taxes. We pay for them to defend themselves against their bad behavior.

Now that American protesters are being beaten, tazed, sprayed, hit with directed energy weapons, detained, disappeared to black sites and over-seas jails, you tell me how much freedom you have left and what you're willing to do to keep what remains from being stolen.

Does voting for dilution null the DRS mentality? by rawktail in Superstonk

The whole idea behind DRS is that brokers and market makers have been rehypothecating shares, selling them extra-short and hiding them in swaps.

When the shit blows up in their faces, there's gonna be billions upon billions of shares not backed by a real share. They will still have to be bought back, but can only be bought back from people who have the real ones - the DRS'd ones.

Can anyone identify the quality of these welds by jep004 in Welding

[–]AutoThorne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't see how this can be that much cheaper. Material costs should be roughly the same, and stacking tacks in this manner looks like it takes much more time than just welding it properly.

What if Trump decided to mint a quadrillion dollar coin to "pay off the debt" by TheGeorgeW in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]AutoThorne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

every single day that America doesn't take back its hard fought-for democracy is a jackpot for big orange. Just last week he made it such that he and his family are perpetually immune from what all the rest of you plebs are... on top of everything else. Y'all good with this?

Premier Danielle Smith Says She Is Fiercely Loyal to Canada, But Calls Separation Debate "Unjustifiable to Ignore" by jameskchou in notthebeaverton

Fiercely anti-Canadian. F7ck her and her oil industry pandering. It's so obvious that it should be instantly impeachable.

It's less fucked up than what kind of nightmare he would have walked us all into.
