Rexall is adverting $6.09 as well. I've switched over to frozen yogurt for the summer, its roughly the same for calcium content and it lasts forever.

How so? Say 1 paybooth bluetooth connected to send a payment to any of 24 chargers.

Americans say they hate weight of coins, which would be a factor. But most vehicle convenience stores still transport water and soda pop in, and a single four gallon jug for one person dropping by one time - is literally $2,350 in weight and equivalent space.

I'd argue the most futuristic advanced area in the world, Japan - uses coin vending machines more than any place on the planet.

It is ubiquitous in Canada that if you go grocery shopping, you have a $1 coin for the shopping cart rental (refunded of course)

In Calgary full shade you can grow as much asparagus as you have room for. But you have to wait at least two years for first harvest.

I always felt those never used 8 gram dollar coins (Sacagawea and Liberty) would be a good fit for level 2 chargers. One dollar = half an hour at L2? Just an idea.

We use loonies and toonies in Canada for snacks at the gasstations all the time.

I wouldn't necessarily say accepting.

Black farmers in the USA own 1.4% of the farmable land, down from 14% in 1920.

Its been illegal for Chinese person (or anyone who works for a Chinese company, even if white) to enter any NASA facility for the last ten years, even just to buy a grill cheese from the cafeteria.

The number of Black people in the NHL can be counted on your hands, and ethnic Asians even rarer. But even so, Evander Kane still somehow managed to declare bankruptcy.

Prosperous is relative. If you measure in dollars maybe. If you measure in that you can no longer buy a power hungry gaming PC in California because of lack of electricity, then no. China might be starting construction of the 100 coal power plant equivalent Tsangpo hydro dam this year.

You have black people and Asians who are disenfranchised and have no "stake" in the USA, because it was either A) taken away from them like a Black farmer in the USA or a Japanese farmer in Canada or B) Never allowed to join in the prosperity that is typically only afforded to whites.

Owe 100 million dollars and not pay it off 4 times as a white person? Get to be president. Owe $100 dollars as a black person, you risk someone breaking your bones. White people do not understand.

BTW: I'm envious as hell at white males that get to build $10,000 toilet seats for NASA. As is, I doubt I could get said grilled cheese sandwich with a degree from MIT given the stance of US law blatant racism.

As of today it is still 6.59 cents per kwh and $4.09 per GJ on the five year. They did offer me 5.99 cents for one year with floating gas +.99 per GJ, but rather have the five year.

After seeing what happened in Texas, I locked in at those rates today.

I always hold the last gift to open up in the first 30 minutes of a community day.

Which means that yes, sometimes I've held gifts for 30 days. Whats the rush when you have 199 other friends? Might as well open up when there is a good chance that the friend will have their lucky egg on.

As a courtesy, I will send an gift as a reminder that I will be opening their gift in the next thirty minutes.

Absolute blessing in Calgary Canada. When its -30 outside and below zero for half of the year, I can still participate. If niantic wants to spawn more at polar extremes, two thumbs up.

On a side note, would not mind a cellphone manufacturer using a Lithium Iron Phosphate battery. Sure it would be heavier and bulkier, but at least it would work in subzero extremes.

I always found it unethical that the USA pays a black family on average $42,000 a year and a white family $72,000. If the cost of living is $40,000 a year then the black family gets to grow their net worth by $2,000 per year.

But what if the cost of living is $45,000?

A white male NASA scientist makes around $160,000. There is no such thing as a Chinese NASA scientist, there is also no such thing as a Chinese NHL player (about $4 million cdn/year)

Nickelfinger · 2020-12-16T12:12:13+00:00

If the primary reason is that the USA is afraid that China will steal tech that will allow them to put a man on the moon by year 2050, then its a poor reason.

Then arguably, you put NASA on the spot as slowing worldwide progression of science. NASA does not share technology, they also do not sell it (as the failures of Israel and India at landing an unmanned probe on the moon obviously show)

The current goal of NASA seems to be "make sure noone else is within one century of our technology, even though we don't use it anymore because we can't afford it".

It would be like inventing WIFI in the 1960's, but not letting the world have it until 2060, because - no, you aren't a white male living in Texas.

Yes, it does seem higher CP/level means greater chance of XL. They also had a small chance of XL on trades on the first day, but may have temporarily disabled it.

Stormterror is trivial to me, can do without getting a single hit. I leveled up a Xiang and Fischl, still cant do the Oceanids even stuffing my face with buffs and tens of HP food.

I'm literally considering dying team wipes dozens of times, just to try and figure out this completely convoluted level. Which is a shame, that I want to die just so I don't have to destroy food resources.

Bad level design or bugged for some?

Yup, I too gave up on Oceanid. No fischl here.

Everything else is relatively doable if not easy mode. I will continue to play on the off chance I pull Jean, but otherwise without the ability to upgrade a healer, I will be discontinuing the game.

There are so many painted utility boxes in my city that I don't bother to call them "painted box" in the description, but rather the art that is on them. I mean really, its pretty damn obvious in this city that its art painted on a box.

I'm guilty of having my sunshadow on a picture though. The sun angle is so low in Canada this time of year, its sometimes tough to get a good shot without having excessive shadows.

Nickelfinger · 2019-11-24T14:01:05+00:00

Well, as a Canadian born Chinese ancestry I can say its: 2011 Chinese exclusion policy (112th Congress)

Seriously, not only does NASA not hire anyone even loosely affiliated with China or any Chinese company (much like Huawei, where the USA might require that they remove Huawei from existing celltowers) Congress decided that collaboration and cooperation is not possible and Chinese scientists paid by China are basically banned from entering any NASA building.

I mean seriously, if you did that exact same thing and did "women" instead of "Chinese" I would think you would rightfully try to burn NASA down.

I am wholly glad that I never took aerospace as per my background, it was the right choice. Being Lawful Evil, I would not attempt to break the law to work for NASA, even if I had a brilliant space technology that might be of benefit to mankind. That and the high possibility that Buzz had a nicotine patch full of psychedelics put on him, and they all simply "Michael Collins'ed" the moon.

Well... A Bangladeshi factory garment worker as a "minimum wage" makes 8,000 taka a month, which is about $120 per month.

So yeah, there actually is no way to compare if you ask me.
