@larryneufeld I don't think Canada can afford to leave NORAD. Canada is very dependent on the US. The only way to compensate would be to invest an enormous portion of its GDP towards modernizing its military...

@peterbutler 1/10? The game is really fun, it's number one on Twitch...

I think the Wired author made the mistake of confusing her political response with the game review... What JK Rowling said is definitely unacceptable, but one thing for sure, that game can't be a 1/10...

Reviews for Hogwarts Legacy are coming in.

Most reviewers are giving it a 9 3/4, depending on the platform.

@EarthToRia we also finished this one today

This is from a larger comic about creativity: https://theoatmeal.com/comics/creativity_things

@EarthToRia yeah, the Home Alone lego is almost $400. I might buy it, we'll see!

If you missed it, here are previous projects I've completed

Latest 4 lego projects I've built with my little sister! I enjoy this hobby as it allows me to connect and spend quality time with her.

What are your lego projects? Do you build lego as an adult? Which one should I build next?

So true?

@pete if you compare all of the gray area with the red area, they both have the exact same population (number of people)

AMAZING visualisation showing the power of urban population density.

If you're an American, could you please comment whether you live in a grey or red area?

Did you know that it is common for logos to include intentional inconsistencies?

Here's an example from the Google logo where parts of the logo are not aligned and where the overall shape of the logo is distorted.

It is common for visuals that have been distorted, especially letter forms, to appear more accurate. For instance, although the entire line of text appears even, characters with rounded bottoms protrude beyond the baseline. Those that seem to be the same thickness all around are frequently not.

That's an AMAZING sand sculpture!

I once met a girl and told her "you must be my electron because we share a strong bond". Turns out she is a neuroscientist and thought my pick up line was charming. Five years later, we are still happily sharing our lives together! ❤️
