Your link does not say that Canada has a higher mortality rate than the US for drunk driving. It says that drunk driving is responsible for a slightly higher percentage of motor vehicle fatalities (34% compared to 31%). Given that the US has three times as many traffic fatalities per capita, this means that the US has almost three times the mortality rate for drunk driving as compared to Canada.
Apple changed the power settings to no longer allow the computer to stay awake with the lid closed unless it's either connected to power or connected to an external display.
If people aren't driving cars down a road because stopping at so many stop signs is unpleasant, why do you expect cyclists to bike down that road, when they actually have to physical work (not just pushing a pedal) getting up to speed again? Stop signs suck for bikes more than for cars. If cars avoid a route because of stop signs, of course bikes will avoid it!
Yes, these kinds of transfer numbers are easily possible (even though other posters have said you don't actually have 1,000 getting on or off at one stop). As an example, consider the subway of Toronto, Canada on its busiest line, Line 1. A subway train is 138m (450 ft) long with 6 cars (though there is no internal barrier between cars) and a capacity of about 1,500 people. Each car has 4 door sets per side, and these door sets are about 1.5m (5 ft) wide. People can easily fit through them in pairs, so moving 4 or more people per door set when in a rush is very doable. With 24 door sets (only one side opens at a station), that's 96 people entering or exiting per second, so 10 or 11 seconds for 1,000 people. If you think 4 per second per door is too optimistic, then it's 1,000 people in 20 seconds.
I've used self-checkouts in Canada and in The Netherlands. The ones here in Canada are just like the miserable experience you describe. Especially the weight sensor and the machine complaining. In The Netherlands I never had that issue (even with a second person helping me). I'm convinced companies have just turned the anti-theft settings up to aggravating false-positive levels over here.
At least where I'm from (Canada), bread comes with a clip holding the bag shut, not a twist tie. "Re-using the clip" means the clip the came with the bag. You can see that it's a different shape in the picture. This would be the equivalent of re-using the twist tie, if that's how the bread is packaged where you live.
If they're not Hall-effect, they most likely are susceptible. That said, I use my controller a lot (I have wrist issues that make using a mouse painful, so I only play games with a controller) for about a year now and I haven't yet noticed any drift. At any rate, I do hope a nice Team Controller 2 comes out with Hall-effect sticks that works for everyone.
The last game I played was "Fuck's Quest II", so I'm definitely "Fuck".
What conspiracy theory? You can look up LG's terms of service and read it for yourself.

Sceptre seems to be the only company makinh consumer-grade dumb TVs.
You're correct. That's why the US reserve storage holds oil, not fuel.
Why does this post start talking about democratic socialism then link to a description of social democracy? Those are not the same thing.
62 (100km/h) was what it was before. It's being raised to 69 (110km/h).

They aren't referring to the chicken tax, they're referring to the CAFE regulations.

Edit: But there is a command line you can use.
The number of subdividing lines on the left are inconsistent between the foot marks.
Why are you comparing the most common screen resolution in 2007 to a 4k monitor today? 4k isn't the most common today. This isn't a fair comparison.

Vector mathematics as we use it and code it is based on the right hand rule.
Agreed. That would be totally valid.
The top one is wrong because it violates the right hand rule.
Amsterdam also has a metro system.
