How does a company thinking it has a rush of orders it can’t fulfill due to a strike affect how they view their bargaining position in that strike? I’d say it makes them more willing to settle.

It’s not like they’d be thinking “we have 20% more orders than projected. Thank god for this strike.”

Why cancel the order when they capitulate? Because. Fuck ‘em.

They are very much angled and it drives me insane.

I have almost no opinions on specific fonts. Except… I absolutely despise the $ and ¢ symbols in Apple’s San Francisco font. Since it’s the default font I have to look at it a lot.

Buy shit (if you’re in an area affected by the strike), cancel the order when the strike ends.

The problem with him is that he doesn’t uphold his agreements. Combine that with him thinking that the President is King and the US is an extension of himself means that you can no longer trust the US to uphold its agreements. So, no we are no longer allies in any way that you can count on. I’d suggest that Canada pay lip service to the “allies” bit, but not count on it in any way.

I agree, but I’m enough out of the loop that I didn’t realize how old he looked. I saw the recent (and terrible) mission impossible movie and he didn’t look nearly as old. I know movie magic and all, but that picture still surprised me.

Tom Cruise is looking rough.

That’s not a friend.

My favorite is Queensrÿche’s Operation: Mindcrime. It gets pretty regular listenings still.

I’ve always preferred Radio: K.A.O.S. even if the concept of hacking nuclear bombs with a cordless phone is… really fucking dumb.
