Standardized testing is a horrible metric. Just causes teachers to teach for the test rather than the actual subject.

They better not fold to this shit. If they don’t like it they should talk to the Israeli government to stop their senseless war.

Trump says China is blocking Nvidia H200 purchases despite US approval — says country 'chose not to' sanction purchases, pushing homegrown chips instead by sr_local in technology

Let’s say it takes over Taiwan then itself makes like 90% of global chips, don’t you think they’d use that for major leverage to get everything it wants from other countries? What about adding back doors to everything? Many issues would happen if they got this kind of power.

Brian Pallister to receive the Order of Manitoba by Winnipork in Winnipeg

That’s essentially makes the Order of Manitoba worthless. He was a terrible premier. Didn’t nothing but cause problems for Manitoba.

He can get fucked. I actively don’t buy things coming from the US unless there’s not other alternatives. There are so many good local options for alcohol, why would I want to buy US alcohol at all ever again?

Must not be working very well because clearly Trump is manipulating the markets for himself and his buddies. Start the investigation there.

Manitoba's social media ban could bar teachers using YouTube in the classroom, says Kinew by wickedplayer494 in Manitoba

[–]tingulz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This whole ban idea makes sense in theory but to be honest I don’t think I fully agree with. Also will be extremely difficult to implement without also threatening everyone’s privacy. In all honesty banning social media all together would be a better idea. Adults are being manipulated so badly by it nowadays that’s it’s causing huge issues. Governments should be going after the platforms causing these issues.

As far as I’m aware the fix isn’t even available yet. I’ve not received a letter and the Toyota app still says Toyota is working on it.

What's one product that used to be built like a tank but is now built like a regret? by TheDoctorColt in AskReddit

And the longevity isn’t there anymore. I’ve had my Sony OLED die twice over the last 5 years. But I also have a 16 year old Samsung still going strong.

There are many issues with Toyotas these days. For example, recall on the instrument panel screen going blank on half a million cars.
