Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play?

Based on your description, I don't think your father would have qualified for MAID in its current form - recipients must be able to provide informed consent immediately before receiving medical assistance in dying, with very narrow exceptions.

That seems like a little much - there's plenty of foreign media that produces worthwhile content.

Blacklisting certain outlets, on the other hand...

He's not Mr. Right...but he is Mr. Right Now.

Dominion Review is a Canadian publication providing novel and dissenting perspectives on issues that matter to our country.

Oh.

And look at that, the site's editor has been published in...

-The Epoch Times (19 times!)

-The Financial Post (4 times)

-The Vancouver Sun (twice)

-The Western Standard

And other publications that I'm sure are highly esteemed and worth our time.

I guess they think "respectful and firm" is their best shot at taking a stand without alienating their base.

I don't think it's going to play.

Tempered expectations re: RTD finales are good policy.

I think the titles as a whole are...fine. Nothing too attention-grabbing for me, but perfectly cromulent.

I truly wish I had some advice for you, but I honestly have no idea what to say to someone who thinks a "news" source like that is worth a grain of salt.

I found their website (not going to link it here), and it looks like a bog-standard right-wing misinfo outlet to me.

The overall advisory level remains green, "Take normal security precautions."

It's a good start. I hope they can keep it up.

Nah, you're probably right - I don't really pay attention to the meta because I don't care, but Intel has always been a bit of a black sheep.

"I provided a specific list of demands the next prime minister, regardless of who that is, must address within the first six months of their term to avoid an unprecedented national unity crisis," Smith said in a statement Thursday after a morning meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney in the Alberta capital.

So it's extortion, then.

It's really impossible to discuss this without also discussing the fact that international students have been exploited for decades.

Make the weapons bolt-action.

It seems especially weird when the universal console and experimental weapon are temporal in nature (granted, Temporal is the ship's secondary specialization).

Though if any faction benefits from the Intel spec, it's the Romulans and their battle cloak.

There is no kill switch for the F-35, but the JPO’s statement points to the very real problems with the weapons system. In its own words, the jet “operates under well-established agreements,” its strength “lies in its global partnership,” and JPO “[remains] committed to providing all users with the full functionality and support they require.” In other words, the F-35 doesn’t fly unless JPO helps you, but don’t worry because it’s committed to helping.

The F-35 may not have a “kill switch” in the traditional sense, but the countries who bought it are locked into an irrevocable pact with Lockheed Martin and America. ALIS/ ODIN might not be able to turn off the F-35 remotely, but losing access to it can make it impossible to fly.

Only one country has escaped the F-35 software and logistics trap while still being able to fly the jet: Israel. The IDF’s contract for the jet allows it to operate its own software systems without ALIS/ ODIN and conduct its own maintenance.

The vertical warbird has been kicked around as a concept since the TNG days - I'm a little suprised we haven't gotten one before now.

Purple.

I don't mean anything, as I didn't write the headline.
