And some of those different types I’m guessing are better for different purposes, probably purposes other than simple automobile fuel?

I did a decade in local TV, then worked a few years at a company that made production equipment that I’d guess anyone who works around camera, DIT, director, producer, etc. would know. Relatively small company so I don’t want to risk identifying myself by naming it. I’m out entirely now, though. Not even running cameras for pledge drives at the local PBS station because they stopped producing them that way.

I’ve never really understood, but also never really looked into, why North America imports oil when it also exports oil.

Guy wouldn’t know majesty if it came up and bit him in the face!

Unfortunately it’s been 18 years since I was in Austria, and as an American who’d never had one before they all seemed good, so I couldn’t really help. I remember once my cousin took us to a pizza place that served both döners and the meat inside of dough like a calzone, but couldn’t tell you at all where it was beyond I think we were on the eastern side of the Danube.

But please have an Ottakringer Blopp and/or Kaiser Doppelmalz for me the next time you’re in Vienna.

If this was accurately identified as 1906 then it would likely be his summer in New Hampshire

Where is this cliff? Looks like Oregon or Washington

Do döner kebabs in Austria count as a Turkish food?

I’m going to assume that was not a test since there was a real plane in there

I take lactase enzyme tablets and alpha galactosidase enzyme tablets (Beano) to break down the complex sugars in dairy and beans and it normally prevents any problems. A nutritionist told me once that most beans have some complex sugars that humans can’t normally digest, and when those ferment in the digestive tract it can cause problems, but the alpha galactosidase takes care of it.

If it’s a local destination that I know well I have a pretty good estimation in my head, but again those unexpected factors can throw a wrench in my plans.

I’ve only given it a relatively cursory look in the past, but it seems like Canada doesn’t give a quick pathway to citizenship via marriage. I think you can get a residency status somewhat quickly and easily, but it seemed like you’d need to live in Canada for a decade before you could apply for citizenship, whereas for my wife we could apply for US citizenship after 3 years or after she’d had her green card for 3 years, I can’t remember which exactly.

If you have the money, a lawyer can make the process a lot easier for the US, so I’d guess the same might be true for Canada.

Also, double-check how Canada views things, but if there’s any chance you might want to get your spouse a green card in the future, the US government strongly prefers that you get married in the United States. They seem very suspicious that marriages conducted in another country might not be real and that it’s just a scam to try to get a green card. The longer you’re married the less of an issue it is, but if you decide to get a green card in the first few years it could be a problem. If Canada is not as strict about that then you may want to have the legal wedding ceremony in the United States, even if you’ll be living in Canada.

And overall, I feel like it’s most valuable to try to get both parties some sort of citizenship or permanent resident status in both countries. You never know when a family medical emergency might lead to you moving to another country, and that’s not when you want to try to establish residency permission. Canada seems to require you to actually live there for more than half the year to apply for residency, so we haven’t done that for me, but since you will be living there you should be able to. I think you can also apply for a green card without immediate plans to live in the US (but double check that) so you may want to start that process sooner than later.

And to have an ETA.

I mean, I feel like I probably could drive myself the entire ~1200 miles/2000 km to my in-laws without using navigation, but it probably wouldn’t be the best route at a given time of day. I could easily be stuck in traffic because of a car wreck, construction, or just rush hour.

The way the model in the bottom right is staring back at him makes it the best picture

I felt like the difference was only obvious if the disk had gotten really bad in the first place, but maybe it was just psychological from seeing the colors move around.

Post as quoted in the article from the group’s X/Twitter account:

Gmemecoin,

We’re aware of the stunt that took place early this morning, when one of our community members entered the Punch enclosure at Ichikawa Zoo in Tokyo dressed in our mascot costume and carrying a teddy bear version of himself.

First and foremost, we are endlessly grateful for the cult we have built together and for a community that continues pushing boundaries and creating standalone virality out of thin air.

You’re built different.

That said, with our Season 1 Create to Earn campaign going live tonight, we want to remind everyone to respect local laws and never put yourselves, others, or any animals at risk.

Wild energy is part of the culture, but safety always comes first.

We have reviewed the footage from several angles, and we are happy to confirm that no monkey was touched or harmed during the stunt. From what we can tell, the sole intention was to give Punch a fresh new teddy bear to keep him company.

To the team at Ichikawa Zoo: please check your DMs. We would like to donate ¥1,000,000 toward improving the monkey enclosure and supporting the incredible work you do caring for these animals.

We hope you’re as hyped for Season 1 as we are.

Quoted tweet for context.

Memecoin Mode.

EDIT: ¥1,000,000 ≈ US$6,300 or €5,400

I haven’t made one in years. When I made my account it was back when you needed an invitation.

Maybe, although I think the ones we’ve encountered usually have a large doormat covering them

I wonder how much the new choice of CEO was up to the founder versus the venture capital investors. I’m assuming the investors had the main input.

• Google is reportedly testing a 5GB storage limit for new Gmail accounts, down from the standard 15GB.
• Users can “unlock” the full 15GB of free storage by adding a phone number to their account.

Seems they’re trying to get phone numbers this way. Maybe it’s for increased user data, maybe it’s to prevent fraudulent activity, maybe it’s to have more information to give authorities.
