I wish. The private airlines have actually defined what a 'mask' is, unlike the Canadian government. (Because they can actually get sued if you catch the coof wearing a mask that says on the box "will not stop the China coof").

True enough. All I ask for is a modicum of choice.

When I used to fly out of the middle east, the very first thing most Muslim women did was disrobe and unmask into western clothing.

Right now, I can't find a single flight to anywhere that does not require a mask. It is a sad state of affairs.

There are none. It is a religion now. You are watching the birth of the first major religion since Christianity (except maybe Scientology).

If people believe there are extra-terrestrial immortal gods/beings/aliens/angels/ghosts etc etc that are going to save them, you are not going to change their mind. Every religion has a symbol or two. This one has masks.

It is actually a fascinating time to be alive. (Until I kill myself over all this idiocy that is).

Little old lady is pretty based. She got yappy enough with the cops, but I was really hoping too see her get into a physical altercation with on of those thugs.

No it is not. What it might do is provide very quick access to a search warrant if you are caught committing a crime or running from the scene of committing a crime.

Where you might be right is if you are in a vehicle like an RV. The purpose of that provision is to let Conservation Officers search if they suspect you guilty of illegal hunting.

The simplest answer is who cares. The police are not defending the law, or the Constitution, or the Charter of Rights and Freedoms any more. They will do whatever they want tonight regardless of the law. There is nothing smart about getting tased in the door way, spending the night in jail, only to spend $100,000 proving you were right.

Just be smart. Have them park a few blocks away. Don't walk in all at the same time. Keep the music at a quiet level. Choose your legal battles wisely. Getting tased on NYE is probably not one of them.

The same basic procedures that work for escorts in 5* hotels and Asian brothels in Toronto condos would be your easiest solution for a Happy New Year.

Maybe Trump will drop exactly what you said on the 6th. If he can prove it was China along with the UN along with some sort of collusion with the democrats, that would be a petty big checkmate.

Every country on earth would pretty much have to recognize his continued presidency.

Sure, and that is what I did. I just used words instead of notation. But is a riddle for 8 year-olds to teach critical thinking. As you just pointed though, you could take another level into mathematical notation & use the concept for a Grade 9 algebra class.

I am saying that if you fuck up 2+2 by using bad data you get 4 when really it should be 5. It sounds dumb, but you have start somewhere.

Very few things in life are exact integer math. So with COVID everybody is obsessed with reporting it as an integer. Because that is all the average idiot can understand. People come in integer quantities correct?

So everybody reports that there are 2,000 cases per province and they add them up to get 20,000 cases. But in reality there is a certain probability distribution of false positives and it varies depending on the test used. And there is a certain probability distribution of false negatives. And the is a certain probability distribution that tests are getting lost or double recorded. etc etc

So you can't just add up 2+2+...+2=20. Because there may be as few as 10 or as many as 30 thousand depending on the stats.

That is the type of thinking that question is supposed to instill in a young child if tought properly.

How about 1+4 = 1. One fox + four chickens in the hen house = 1 fox in the hen house?

the way he has framed it has made it seem that he isn't teaching it that way

I think I said that. He probably attended a ProD day session or something and now thinks he is all smart shit. This type of thing is supposed to be about teaching critical thinking and thinking outside the box. IQ test type stuff. Not SJW crap.

So you all laugh. But at the right level of math these are very important concepts in engineering.

2.49 + 2.49 does equal 5. That is why we spend the entire first-year of engineering to study significant digits. We would round to the accuracy of the measurement device and probably express the solution as 5.0 so others know the result was rounded. So 2+2 might equal 5, which is why it is so important not to round your work early and to keep track of units and not take numbers out of black-box models without understanding their origin.

There are similar concepts in high-level statistics.

This type of thing is what every journalist and keyboard warrior and even doctor is doing right now with the COVID data. Which why all the data and models are fucked.

The problem is this social justice faggot has probably never taken any math, took his examples out of some SJW textbook and is using it to teach racism to 10-year-olds.

She even had us to do shit like crumple up our quiz and toss it to the other side of the room.

So the geeks and assholes on opposite columns in the room became partners in cheating. For opposite reasons. The assholes because they didn't want to read Shakespeare at all. The geeks (me), because we had read Hamlet on the first day in an hour on the school-bus home and were already into our fifth Shakespeare play. We just thought it was fucking retarded to read & memorize the events of exactly 5 pages per day just to prove we had done it.

All of course because she was a lazy cunt who couldn't manage to customize a lesson plan to teach and challenge students of differing levels of reading ability & motivation, much less mark the fucking quizzes herself to determine her student's skills & deficiencies.

There is nothing wrong with online learning. I am a big supporter of it.

Obviously the testing has to be done in person. It all comes down to the teaching method. And that depends a lot on the nature of the course.

High-school teachers have to be the dumbest laziest cunts on the planet.

But it is not a new phenomenon. 25-odd years ago I had a teacher who would give daily pop-quizzes and have us hand it to the person behind us to mark because she was too fucking lazy to mark them herself. How do you think we organized ourselves? Instead of geeks being in the front row and assholes in the back row, we were all in columns of friends.

Take it and put it the the pickup box of your truck would be even better. You paid $2bucks for the celery. The cart you just dumped in the dumpster behind the nearest gas station just cost them $1,000 bucks.

Sorry but this citizen's arrest over twitter shit is faggoted as fuck.

If you want to stop 14-year-old girls from getting fucked by Pajeets, then talk to the girls and their moms. Mostly the moms.

As we all know, it is mostly the mom's handing them over to the Harvey Weinstein's & Epstein's of the world.

Different kind of mask altogether and i think you have an outdated view of the city.

LOL. This tells me all I need to know. You have never been to China.

It is not. You are wrong. You could walk around the malls on Orchard Boulevard in Singapore and you would never see a person in a mask. You certainly wouldn't see a young person out for nightlife anywhere in Asia wearing a mask

What you sometimes see is an old man fishing on the banks of a river in downtown Beijing wearing a mask during the most air polluted days.

How many years did you live in Asia? Because it sounds to me like you get your information from CNN. And Fox & CBC are just as bad as CNN.

You sound like my CNN obsessed Dad. It simply is not true. I have been on hundreds of flights to Asia. I have stayed in the finest hotels. The sleaziest of hotels. I have had work permits to every country in Asia except Mongolia & Myanmar. I worked all over Asia for 15 years.

They don't wear fucking masks. What they do do, is fuck lots of hookers. Asia has highest density of girly bars and brothels on the planet. I can assure you, they don't wear masks.

Asians never wore masks because of disease. That is something you heard on CNN.

Mostly Asians wear masks because of particulate smog. Some, mostly the women wear them to keep the sun off their face to keep their complexion as white as possible.

Have you never done an around the world type flight?

Vancouver to Toronto, to Paris, to Kinshasa, to Pointe Noir or something like that? Just switching terminals at Paris might take 3 hours. You will be stuck there for at least 8 hours, because flights to Europe land at dawn and flights to Africa leave at dusk to arrive at dawn.

Don't even get me started on Hong Kong. It is perhaps a 45 minute journey to get to the food court from where AC drops you off (gate 68 or so).

I despise people who bring full-size carry-on bags instead of checking them as luggage. But you can be damn sure my little-wee laptop bag will have wheels.

As far as I know, the only way to fly maskless in North America right now is to have ownership or fractional ownership (like Netjets) of a plane. I know we have some high-profile people who post here.

Make it happen boys. Lots of us have 10 or 20 grand to throw around for our share of a flight if you can get us out of the shithole known as Canada.
