Motors are also mechanical.

I'm pretty sure E-bikes are digitally controlled.

Acoustic is definitely funnier, but all definitions I can find about it relate to sound.

Acoustic bikes? I think analog may be more fitting here but honestly I'm not sure. I've just never heard acoustic referenced outside of sound.

Haha same despite not being active at all for months now. In any case, the email explains only residents of the USA are eligible.

Libraries existed before any licensing or copyright even existed lol. The entire point is to 'copy' information, which is exactly what happens when you let many people look at the same clay tablet or whatever. Peer to peer.

You could literally sit there and copy from someone else's scroll on to your own scroll.

The logical conclusion of libraries is piracy anyway. Like that's their entire point, the dissemination of information freely.

People definitely request it specifically for the high it provides.

Which bill? There was no bill.

When did it even come to a vote? My understanding is they just glossed over entirely.

I'm leaning towards NDP over the others, but depends what they promise closer to the election.

All I'm saying is the Libs will never gain my vote for election reform. They may win my vote in other ways, but not that way.

I'm going to try voting for a party that says they will end first past the post voting, if there are any. Except the party that already have made that promise and not delivered. Fool me twice and all that.

Hard to call them stupid when they got to use it for free within the return window. Seems like a good deal. I agree with all the other points though.

Obviously yes. I imagine many people with nearly dead accounts will check the app and work this, and only this, day specifically for a good rate.

That's how contract employment works. Work when you want at a price that you agree to. No guarantees and no commitment. It's no way to live, which is why I pursued a salaried career. But it is useful in specific situations.
