Heater.

It's about being homeless in Winnipeg, well, it's about the lives of 2 homeless men in Winnipeg who are trying to return a heater to a store for money.

It's not the fastest-paced movie ever made, nor does it have a high budget, but I really enjoyed the film

I don't think it is, as long as you are the one deciding what "fullest" is.

It could even be spending the most amount of time possible with family and friends, or the most amount of time learning LOTR lore.

In case you need more context, Matthew 6:5-6:

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Edit: Please remember that the bible is very internally inconsistent, and it's obviously not factual. It's just funny that the people who claim to be christians don't know their own book.

FYI anyone can fact-check an article easily with links to quotes and references using your favourite LLM

As long as you understand that the LLM is just a word generator, and it doesn't actually "understand" anything. The LLM will cite its sources, and that's the information that can be used. The LLM is a shortcut, not the final answer.

whether or not there are better sites for exchanging coin to cold wallets with lower fee’s that are trustworthy.

Nothing connected to crypto is trustworthy.

Yep.

Being complacent about how laws and ruling are currently being used, instead of being concerned about how they can be used, is why we've seen abortion bans and restrictions in the USA in recent years.

Why crucify the lawyer?

In order for someone to be punished in a just society, they need to have a trial.
In order for that trial to also be just, both sides need to be able to put forth their side of what happened.
In order to make sure that there isn't a mistrial, both sides need competent lawyers, and the case needs a competent judge.

The alternative is that that police can just target people they don't like, knowing that they likely can't defence themselves, even if they are innocent.

Formatting thing: if you start a line in a new paragraph with four spaces, it assumes that you want to display the text as a code and won't line break.

This means that the last part of your comment is a long line that people need to scroll to see. If you remove one of the spaces, or you remove the empty line between it and the previous paragraph, it'll look like a normal comment

With an empty line of space:

1 space - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

2 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

3 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

4 spaces -  and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

Why do you mention gearscouts so often?

Do you own the site?

Cannon fights between boats were often similar to turn-based.

They were considering selling 49%, but the percentage is meaningless without looking at the articles, the bylaws, and resolutions. A lot of corporations make things more strict than the Bus Corp. act. You can always make things more strict, you can't make them more lax.

In fact, some things require a "Special Resolution" which is 2/3rds.
BUT, that can mean 2/3 of the shareholders who show up, as long as enough people show up to make a quorum.
And a quorum can be as small as 1 person, again, depending on the Articles, bylaws, and resolutions.

If you feel like learning about the Saskatchewan Business Corporations act, here is it:

If you just look up the name of the song, many sites will now prompt anti-self harm messages instead of showing you results.

"Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes"

 

I mean, this is the same Trinity Western that wasn't allowed to open up a law school because they are garbage, right?

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trinity-western-supreme-court-decision-1.4707240

They only started to consider dropping their homophobic ways after their law school bid was rejected.

It requires members to abstain from using vulgar language, lying or cheating, stealing, using degrading materials such as pornography, and "sexual intimacy that violates the sacredness of marriage between a man and a woman."

While that rule effectively bars anyone who is unmarried from having sexual relations, it's the reference to "man and a woman" that is considered discriminatory against LGBT people. Same-sex marriage became legal in Canada in 2005.

And Janet, get real. Not being allowed to open a law school because you discriminate against others, doesn't count as a loss in diversity.

Janet Epp Buckingham, a TWU professor who helped develop the law school proposal, said she was saddened by the ruling.

"We feel that this is a loss for diversity in Canada"

Edit: It looks they stopped making students promise to be straight in 2018, but they didn't drop it for the staff.
