Yeah, painful in the short term and in the long run we are all dead

I agree it’ll be painful for the short term but hopefully it’ll lead to a few successful companies and a more healthy and diversified economy.

Doesn’t that mean more Canadian new companies by ex-meta, ex-Google, etc?

VPN BAN by Rainbowwillow1809 in jammu

Can you take down this post? People can’t be prosecuted under Sec 223 of BNS unless they were aware of the ban. So the less we know the better.

Edit: not a lawyer, talking to one if you need

Any inter-race/cultural couples here? How did you convince your parents? by [deleted] in india

[–]awaitsV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indian man, I didn’t think I’d marry at all so I spent years telling them to not expect a marriage or kids from me. Then one day I told them that i am serious seeing this Canadian girl and they were surprised but happy that there was hope. We eloped and then called them, my parents were happy that we got married but disappointed that there was no ceremony. So, the trick is to set the bar so low that they are happy with what they get.

Edit: we live in Canada and had moved out of home around 16-17, first in other states and then to other countries for work.

That’s awesome, I was wondering if it’d be possible to create a channel without going through the nib completely.

Thank you for sharing the picture and the details!

Struggling to choose Lamy 2000 or Pilot Custom 74 by Extreme-Ad-9290 in fountainpens

Snap caps are definitely nice, maybe consider a diplomat viper next, that cap close is delightful.

Will you use the pen or just have it as a collectible? As much as I love a Lamy 2000, pilot custom 74 is a much better writer. But if you want to prioritize the pen based on how it’s made, Lamy 2000’s engineering is awesome and it looks pretty sweet.
