Disagree, drill drivers are cheap these days. Don’t lock yourself into an expensive battery platform yet.
Don’t get anything more than a Ryobi drill and see if you need a good one, once it breaks, then you can decide what color you will use for the next 20 years.
Get cheap tools. Buy everything at harbor freight. Don’t splurge on anything that’s not a safety hazard (get a quality ladder, but buy cheap screwdrivers)
If the tool breaks, buy a quality one to replace it.
Project Farm is your friend to find the cheap option, and the quality option.
Edit: Substitute Princess Auto for Harbor Freight, as you’re in Canada.
VERY specific people would have been better off born 20 years ago.
The vast majority of people would be better off today.
You can imagine in another 20 years that would be different, but almost everyone is better off today than they were 20 years ago, and they will be even better 20 years from now than today.
Specific groups may have a harder time in one time period or another, but society at large is getting better at the world scale over the long term. Hope still exists.
This is illegal now?
Literally sealioning, it’s hilarious how much you’re acting just like the comic.
You’re parroting talking points by conservatives.

Just looking at violent crime rates, Chicago is 84th out of US cities.
If you’d like to provide different statistics, I’d like to see them.

Not exactly true, yes if the debris is bad enough and the current is strong enough, there isn’t a lot that will help. BUT if you have a life jacket, even in swiftly moving water, you can lean back and orient your feet downstream and it’ll keep your head away from the worst of it.
That would be significantly harder to do without a PFD.
They used to use your list of installed fonts as one of the data types to figure out who you are.
I’m not sure if that’s still a thing, how many people download new fonts now, but it was an important part of fingerprinting at one point.
Find your local news sources, whatever they are, and add ALL of them. You can usually filter by local news so you don’t get a bunch or repeat national/international news.
Aside from that - this is a decent list to start from.

So the exact same thing people have been saying for decades.
I feel like this comment exaggerates how far the human eye can perceive into the universe. Anything you can see with your eyeball is only as far as a few hundred light years, which means it would be extremely unlikely that any star you can see is significantly different in location “now” than when the light emitted.
Also it would be extremely unlikely for any star you can see with your eyes to have died between the time light is emitted and when you experience it.
That’s a different story for things you can see through a telescope, or through a camera, but just looking up… Those points of light are pretty close and extremely bright stars.
You do point out the light from the stars dim due to inverse square law, but don’t forget they also red-shift due to the expansion of the universe. The cosmic microwave background radiation didn’t start as microwaves, it started as red visible light that slowly red shifted into the infrared, then into microwave.
That’s illegal under the ACA. That USED TO be the case, but now it’s the opposite. Once you hit a certain amount per year, you’re no longer on the hook for anything covered.
Cause things get named CENTURIES before we understand them, and as we learn more, sometimes it makes sense to rename them, sometimes it is so engrained in daily life nobody would use the new names.
Vanguard actually has a MORE ethical index fund - ESGV
Obviously there’s no real ethical capitalism, but this is better than most.

This guy actually rolled his own internal home cableTV broadcast, which does exactly what you’re asking.
Cause using superman for his actual ideal use would be pretty boring for a comic book.
No, the Teletubbies are the Eloi from The Time Machine. They are simple creatures that can’t possibly understand the technology they use, so they don’t make it or maintain it.
They freak out and go to bed when the sun goes down. Probably because the Morlocks are coming.
The world is far too technologically advanced for it to be Hobbits. The Hobbits are specially written to be essentially self sufficient and don’t desire anything more advanced than beer (and magic fireworks.)
Great option
