For Canadian French content check out Mauril, it’s a platform by Radio-Canada that has compiled clips of their own content suitable for whatever level you’re at, and asks questions to gauge your comprehension.
Speaking of Radio-Canada you could tune into their radio channel ICI Première, which is available in all areas in Canada. In Toronto it’s 860 AM/90.3 FM.
Another resource I like to recommend for language learning in general is Mango Languages, it’s leagues ahead of Duolingo and has a Canadian French course, though it’s not as extensive as the Metropolitan French one. Plus they are partnered with most (at least North American) public libraries so if you have a library card you can register with that for free forever, normally it’s like $20/month or something.
With the exception of orange juice, any food I eat replaces the minty flavour with its own. I guess I just need that reset to “minty fresh” before eating (I’ve been conditioned by Big Toothpaste to associate minty with clean)
I actually find it more enjoyable to have breakfast after my mouth is refreshed. I wouldn’t enjoy eating with the taste of old mouth juice all over my tongue
I unfortunately discovered Anki after graduating from uni (how I wish I had known about it back then). As a student of life I’m studying/maintaining the languages I speak, as well as general knowledge including geography and light history, plus anything new I’ve learnt and wish to remember.
Adam Something uploaded a video starting with the definition of intelligence itself, and then explains how something that “acts” intelligent doesn’t mean it “is” intelligent.
As a student of life I have to mention Anki. At its core it’s a flashcard app out of the box but it’s almost infinitely more powerful than that if you dig deep.
I paid 35 CAD for it in 2019 and I’ve used it every single day since. The amount of knowledge I’ve committed to memory is truly priceless, and I’ve even gifted this app to several friends.
NB: AnkiMobile, not the free knockoff AnkiApp. It’s open-source and actually free for computers and android devices, and iOS/iPadOS app purchases are the only way the developer makes money.
I don’t game much but the games I gravitate toward are ones where I’m the only character (& maybe with an antagonist narrator) and I have to escape a certain place. This includes Portal, Portal 2, The Stanley Parable, and Superliminal.
Even though the most recent game I’ve bought, Detroit: Become Human, has many characters and interactions between them, I liked the storytelling, cinematic aspect. Plus both Detroit and The Stanley Parable have multiple possible endings depending on the decisions made during the game.
I’ve been ranting about this for years. Microsoft word used to be like would you like to save this document? OK or Cancel. And now it’s like Wanna save? Sure or nah
July 2022. The event where I (almost certainly) caught it was on a Wednesday. On Friday I went to a barbecue and had no symptoms, later found out that nobody there tested positive. By Saturday night I was feeling sick enough to cancel a meetup on Sunday, and Sunday morning I finally took the test and it was positive.
These are called fictitious entries. Dictionaries and encyclopedias do this too.
I’m on iOS, when I open the app I just get a black screen and nothing happens. Is anyone else seeing the same thing?

Here is a PhET simulation by the University of Colorado Boulder. I remember playing with this one as a kid!
Is your name Matt? My friend in uni whipped out a pepper one day and bit into it like an apple, and just as the OP title describes I was like wtf
But then I thought about it and I was like why should that be so weird?

Gotta be KD
Buhos is a ska rock band from Catalonia that makes music in Catalan and Spanish. They’ve got some tour dates in the Netherlands in November.

FOH with that Microsoft, you’re not my friend

Thanks, I’ll give it a shot!
What was the rule you added? I turn ambient mode and in-line playback off but Google is constantly resetting those switches.
The sidebar says the post was submitted on September 9, but under the title it says an hour ago. How can this be?
Just remember, you chose this path.
