They needed a symbol to spray paint on their tanks to easily differentiate them. Z is simple and it's not a a Cyrillic letter.

They tag some of their military assets with 'Z' for battlefield identification

They'll still have to pay the tariff when crossing the border back to the USA, unless they want to risk smuggling it.

I live in Canada and in the event of US autocratic regime, we are in danger. I would like it if the European Union had our back against (say) incursions from former US border states, but I get that they would have their own problems to deal with.

I get the need for them, to pay for shared building services. Strata fees pay for exercise rooms, pools, grounds maintenance, whatever. I 100% am behind them, as long as the Strata council is responsive to needs and not corrupted, but there's the rub.

I'd generally be happier with few services and low strata fees tho.

Yeah. I'm pretty much resigned to living in our rental until we get renovicted. No kids, double income, a lot of savings... but the mortgage payments would be way more than it's worth to have a minor upgrade. Strata payments alone are often more than our rent!

Not Vancouver. Nothing that size would go less than 2 million until you hit Coquitlam. MAYBE.

Age the second one 2000 years and look as good it will not.

I've found that changing my email address works better than unsubscribe sometimes. Just change it to a tagged address and set up a filter. Shields you against future sales as well.

All the Trump emails go rbos+fucktrump now. Probably a hundred a day. Unsubscribe did not work.

Also, Canadian. Incompetent jerks.

Encoding h.265 on a small enough camera might be a problem? But if they have money ...

The cheaters and cheat developers will just move to Windows, and the legitimate Linux users will quit. I don't see the upside, this doesn't solve the problem.
