Oh, way to move the goal posts!
Basically - fuck this person, right?

The meme faces are backwards on this one.
Break up the mega corps. Enact user privacy-by-default laws. Market dominance via "free product" followed up by bait and switch tactics should be outlawed.
IMO, another good reason to not use Google!
Not a fan of this article. Typical armchair-conservationist whining about the number last year provides zero context of what happened - this article reads as of it was written by someone in the otherside of the world with that stat as the lone figure to base assumptions on.
"Securing garbage and fruit trees" is written as the boogeyman but the underlying problem was a lack of food in the wild for them. "Urban expansion" is not the cause here - hell a couple of the communities on this list including one I live in have had negative growth.
Wild huckleberry production is probably the single largest indicator to how many bears move into communities and last year they were devastated by the drought. Between this and the pressure from yet another insane wildfire season, bears were driven into human contact, and yes, bad human habits made this a problem from there.
I guess my point is that they weren't simply lured in, as this shoddy journalism suggests. This is yet another consequence of climate change. This will only get worse.
Another point of contention - COs were woefully understaffed and under resourced. Trapping and relocating animals just wasn't an option when you have one trap per town at best. Often RCMP were dealing with bears and I bet you can guess which tools they have at their disposal.
My field recon suggests this year to be better for wild berries in my area maybe, but I'll wait and see. I hope some good studies can surface over this whole ordeal and we can work out better solutions before this gets out of hand next time.
I've been running a pair of Sennhesiser PC 350's for something like 10 years now? Not sure. I used to game a lot more than I do now and eventually the ear cushions started falling apart. I was dreading replacing them though, and ended up getting some replacement cushions from Amazon or something. Was super easy to replace and they've been like new for the last year now. I'm a hardwire all of the things type person, and generally a cheapass so yeah, overall happy with this purchase!
Not to mention, most of these trucks are very standardized in their dimensions and parts already. This is probably the biggest thing that will hurt small vehicles is picking a subset of standardized dimensions that will fit multiple models.
I'm starting to think they aren't united.
Ba-dum-tish!
It is their prerogative. They (and Arrowhead) fucked up with Helldivers by removing and then retroactively requiring it. By the time I got the game though it was already required for new players again.
If it means we can cross play to their console I'm fine with it (a feature I wanted). For a single player game it's annoying but as long as it costs nothing I don't care anymore.
I do feel strongly that we need some consumer protections though - and this extends beyond games alone. Any server shutdown (authentication or gameplay affecting) should have a mandatory removal of the requirement or opening of the server to self host. But I digress...
There is ice on the lakes still in the PG fire district and a dozen fires in the region!

I bet they're foreshadowing a large ban wave. Big scoop probably happening in the background. That's how "it's live" will be announced.
