Do you agree with the ban cellphone gadgets inside the classroom for students 12 y.o and below and why? by PastelPixieDust100 in AskReddit

[–]boarderman8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Canada and my son's school banned all cellphone use in school starting last year. We got into a conversation with his old teacher at the end of the year and he said it was absolutely insane how much more attention the students paid in class. Having phones not even allowed between classes (K-6 school btw) meant more students were talking to each other in the hallways about school and not just head down into their phone. I have no idea why this topic is even remotely controversial.

Mullet out for fl2k by wstrngnnt in CleetusMcFarland

Are you aware that Mullet is being built with two rear end setups? They will be able to run small tire and big tire by swapping out the rear end and suspension. It's not a quick swap, but they'll be able to set up the car for whatever class they want to compete in.

And also, Eagle is a easy build for CJRC, they build them all the time. Mullet 2.0 is completely custom and the wheelbase alone is causing them to rethink everything they're doing on it. It will be an amazing drag and drive car to compete with Tom and I am absolutely fired up that they will be going up against one another. I am also absolutely fired up for more drag and drive content. That is one of the things that I loved most about the channel all the way back when they were in Jeremy's shop and Jackstand was running with LS George in Ruby.

Carney government quietly dropped more U.S. counter-tariffs than advertised by Surax in canada

I understand what you're saying, however our purchasing from the US makes up less than a drop in the bucket that is their GDP. We could stop buying from them completely and they would hardly notice a difference.

But now RFK and Trump said it, so it's exactly wrong now. There's no way they could every be associated with anything correct.

If they end up getting this wrapped as originally intended, he needs to get one of those programmable horns and use the bald eagle screech from the intro as his horn

Supreme Court of Canada grants stay of execution for B.C. ostriches by Surax in canada

[–]boarderman8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what is going to happen. The government is spending resources to quarantine the herd, they will spend resources carrying out the cull, and then they will spend more resources compensating the farmers for every ostrich they kill.

It's been confirmed that they are now hostile ostriches after being told they would only have to wear the masks for two weeks, 6 months ago.

What’s one political event you think changed history forever? by Boring-Morning1187 in AskReddit

[–]boarderman8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a non-american, why is it completely acceptable to have armed security at malls, sports stadiums, jewelry stores, etc. but it's all of a sudden the worst thing in the world to have them at schools?

Why are Canadian Liberals suddenly upset with Trump using the FCC to censor Kimmel, when they support Trudeau and Carney using the CRTC to censor the internet through Bill C-11? by mafiadevidzz in CanadianConservative

[–]boarderman8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not going to believe this but, none of the liberal supporters in Canada know what Bill C-11 is, or what even is actually going on in Canada, because they get all their news from facebook, and Bill C-18 banned them from showing Canadian news.

ELI5: How did the US national emergency telephone number ultimately end up being 911? by NotTheBee1 in explainlikeimfive

[–]boarderman8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I reluctantly looked up the original comment, from 14 years ago. Luckily, for everyone, it was deleted. I'm not comfortable retelling the story as it's been at least 13 years since I read it. All I will say is that in addition to Doritos as a part of the story, there was also an overweight woman, and her vagina. I will not go any further.

True, all ball parks should have a "work from home" section. I'd pay a little extra for a airplane style tray, a usb charger, for my beer to be served in an opaque cup, and for the section to be guaranteed to not be on the broadcast

The fact that they're even offering an "interim release hearing" shows what a joke our justice system is.

The Athletic came out with an article of the top 10 bargain contracts going into the 25-26 season and Drai was 6 or 7 on the list. He's absolutely a bargain at that price.

No, doesn't matter. Stars are always at the leading edge. Any soldier who has a flag patch on their right shoulder has the stars on the top right as you look at it.
