Infact, forget the democracy!

Content never really dies, it's just recycled to lower and lower tiers.

This is the worst thing that has ever happened at a Munich airport..

What if one person made an account with ID and then the entirety of the country just happened to know the login?

That table probably smells very bad

As an engineer i hate both, technical sales never have an understanding of their product and are never able to answer any of my questions (because i've read through the datasheet as their words are meaningless to me) but they are mooooorrrreee than happy to schedule an in person meeting to come to my office and show me their product line.

Tell me what i want to know or find me someone who can, im not going to buy 10,000 of whetever if i cant even determine if they will work for my use case.

The last time i had to deal with one of these assholes it took 3 phone calls and 2 emails to get a simple answer which wasnt in their datasheet, which was all of one page long.

My favorite experience with technical sales is we had these component guys come in, they had openned up our product and wanted to show how much better their "equivalent" components were (genuinely a great idea), but they had no context as to what the components were being used for so they all fell flat.

In my experience both are only a waste of my time.

Increased barriers for trade will reduce the number of businesses wanting to do business in the region (different rules, regulations,.and red tape)

They would also create their own currency eventually, so that introduces exchange rate problems. A single currency is almost always better for economic cooperation between states as it removes the uncertainty for long term contracts. Like before the Euro if a german company and an italian company wanted to do business they would have to use 2 different currencies, if one country sufferered a banking crisis that would basically screw over the other as their investment would then be worth a lot less. The UK already had their own currency so this part would actually be worse for Quebec.

Lastly there would be brain drain. Now Quebec is the 2nd most prepared province to go off on its own (diversified economy, warm water ports) but its still a bad idea economically. Despite being a net contributer to the EU budget the UK cant make up for the money the EU gave to the UKs poorer regions, or invested in the countries institutions and industries. Its highly likely the same would happen here. And with the xenophobia for non francophones no longer able to be limited to people from outside Canada i suspect a lot of non Quebecois would leave. Skilled labor being so economically valuable this would just do further damage. Much like the UK outside the union it is harder for them to attract skilled labor from the continent and they are actually now in a net loss for skilled workers dispite increasing immigration.

So no.. not at all..

Edit: those rules and regulations i mentioned in the first part im sure would include something about mandating French be used (at least at first) for businesses. The global economy is based on the English language. I work, as a Canadian, in Germany for a Germany company, i work in English every day. my German boss went to China on a business trip, they spoke to every professional the met in English. So while many Quebecois might see independence as preserving their language... That will fall away really quick when they realize the economy is more important. Ironically Quebec is probably more insulated from English by being a part of Canada.

I would not be surprised if it just nuked the player

This is what i have to do to log into microsoft fuckin teams on my work laptop when i work from home...

  1. Unencrypt my laptop hardrive
  2. Log into my OS
  3. Log into the VPN
  4. Log into teams
  5. Use the authenticator app on my phone to enter the code that is on my screen
  6. Use my fingerprint on my phone to verify that i am the person using my phone...

Step 5 was introduced a few months ago because the other steps weren't secure enough. This is why half my colleagues aren't available when they work from home...

I suggested that we just use slack as our work chat and leave teams as a red herring to dissapoint extremely talented hackers.

Yes i am a "monthly" user of facebook. I log on about once a month as the strata for my building foes basically everything through facebook.

I look at it like internet explorer a few years ago, it has its claws in everything and its just easier to keep using than for people to find an alternative that satisfys everyone.

Oh don't worry im sure there will be a confession soon... Under totally normal circumstances...
