Exactly. Unless all these companies are sharing trustworthiness data I can make a new account and start fresh. The centralization of "worthiness" is what concerns me.

How do I make new Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax account to reset my credit score?

Declare bankruptcy and wait 5 or 10 years.

If you are doing any sort of financial transactions you will likely need a new debit/credit card.

And hopefully you've not done anything that is "problematic" there, or ChexSystems will be along to make sure your new bank might want to know not to do business with you, like they did to me, after KeyBank tried to hit me with $405 in overdraft fees in a single day for a series of transactions that, if played chronologically, would never had had me with a balance below $0 at any point, due to "transaction reordering". Chex refused to remove the derogatory note, even after there was a lawsuit and legislation, until I kept escalating with them.

That stopped being an issue...Christ has it already been 9 months?

I would trade the destruction of trustworthy information and images on the internet for clean fusion power. It's a steep cost but I think it's worth it.

I envy people that collect things. It seems like a fun hobby. Wish I was that passionate about something.

I like the shader you used for the core.

We do not have the same king. The King of Great Brittan is not the King of Canada, they just happen to be the same person. Is the US also part of the British Empire?

Obviously not as US does not have king in their legal system at all.

And the UK has no influence on Canadian governance.

the king can call you to war right?

No, only parliament can declare war. And the King of Canada is a different role than the King of the UK, as explained many times in the thread.

but he's commander in chief. and he confirms / dissolves parliament. so when it matters, as in war time, he can . I don't appreciate the condescension in either case. It's not like his powers are easy to understand. They exist, though not commonly exercised.

that's not what fox news says

Canada is no longer part of the British Empire. Neither is the US, since the end of the War of Independence. That’s what independence means.

Then why on earth does Canada still put British monarchs on their money? Follow up question, why doesn't the US do it?

Canada doesn't. It puts Canadian monarchs on its coins. The fact that they are physically the same person as the British monarch is incidental.

To be complete, Elizabeth is still on a lot of Canadian money, and she was the Queen of the UK with dominion over Canada until 1984, when she became Queen of Canada, and the UK crown lost dominion over Canada.

So Elizabeth was a British monarch on Canadian money, and Canadian monarch on Canadian money, uniquely.

Of course she is no longer put on newly made money.

I’ve been to Canada, and the people strangely have a wildly different accent than their own monarchs for some reason.

The vast majority of people in the UK also have a wildly different accent from their monarchs.

Great, tell ozim that.

So your question was rhetorical. Not totally obvious to me, and I answered it as if it was a normal question.

Well I did not expect the thread to be that good ... but I am definitely going to get popcorn out to eat while I read all the people telling me that :)

Ha! Yeah, Canadians are quick and eager to describe their independence from the UK, relatively fresh as it is :)

Americans had 200 year dramatic and violent head start and everyone has figured that out by now. The details of Canada’s status are understandably less well known.

King Charles holds the title of King of Canada!

My original wired G502 is still working. The middle click sometimes doesn't work but I just gotta press a bit harder.

This article is about an ergonomic mouse. The apple mouse is like anti-ergonomic.

I spent two days trying to reverse engineer the serial protocol for an LED panel I got from aliexpress. Just after I figured it out, I decided to google "<led board> github" and found a python library that did everything I needed and was much more elegant. Still, you have to enjoy the process.

Hot air rework isn't that difficult. It's a skill like any other.
