Can't speak for Canada, but the blasphemy law in Denmark had been used four times (if I remember it correctly) in the past 100 years. The last time was in the 70s, and the accused was found innocent.
Or maybe they just don't give a fuck, same as how the average joe probably can't accurately connect a given superhero to whether he or she is from Marvel or DC.
Is the show good, yes or no? Does the show entertain me, yes or no? I don't f'ing care if it's ABC, Fox, CW or whatever if I like watching it.
Well, I live there NOW, actually, which is why you'll see me comment a lot on the state of internet connectivity in Germany, but I'm referring to my birth country, Denmark. Which incidentally has one of the oldest (if not the oldest, period) flags in the world.
No, really. I have literally seen people argue NOT to use the flag in a logo because it's heavily used by a political party considered far right/nationalist. So... the most obvious symbol of a country should not be used in the logo for that country's branch of a global group. Because OMG RAYCYSTS!
So you signed away that you're a human being, and the case goes to arbitration with a company-owned arbitrator who would then, seeing as you are no longer recognized as a human being by them, be allowed to do whatever he wants to you, including but not limited to torture and murder?
The keyword was modern-day essentials. Sure you might survive without, but good luck finding a new job in this day and age without at least a cell phone and proper internet.
Well, at least it sounds like those politicians are starting to have had enough and are pushing back. MAYBE they were simply ridiculously naive and thought the providers were going to be honest and honorable in arbitration, because that has ever happened before.
Compare single large cities to each other instead of countries and you will STILL see American cities lagging (heh) behind their counterparts in the rest of the world. What is the excuse for not getting good coverage or speed in New York City? In Seattle? In Phoenix?
A common annoyance at something being difficult or impossible would be here today - remember, NEED is the mother of invention. So the question is really, is there something online you find yourself constantly saying, "I really wish I could just..."? I saw a photographer commenting about sending RAW files home while in the field, which is a good example of needing both good speed and a high/unlimited usage cap. Going back to my own comment near the top, imagine sending home RAW files with a 2 GB monthly usage cap.
Is there a sorting for the usage caps per country? I know Germany may have super-fast speeds, but most data plans cap you at 2 GB per month (mine at 500 MB per month) and then drop you to 64 kbps. Or to NONE AT ALL unless you buy more at extorrtionate prices.
First of all, religion is like a penis. It's fine that you have one, it's fine that you're proud of it - but don't start showing it off in public.
Second of all, religion is... well, it's basically insanity. Imagine that I stood up in public and declared that I found it justified to murder anyone who prefers Star Wars over Star Trek, or Lord of the Rings over Harry Potter. I'd be hauled off to jail and/or a psychiatric evaluation before my second breath.
Imagine I said that my invisible friend tells me to cut off a piece of my newborn child because it says so in the Silmarillion. That child would be taken away by Child Protective Services.
Imagine I pointed to Jabba the Hutt's slave girls and said THIS is proof that a man has a right to own his wife as if she was property.
But... Point instead to a bunch of stories told by illiterate goat shepherds thousands of years ago, and suddenly it is religion and protected. Not just islam, but all of religion. Christianity doesn't get a free pass on this one.
Religion is pure and simple collective insanity. Religious wars are akin to a toddler tantrum over WHOSE invisible friend is the BEST (only) invisible friend.
Freedom of religion should extend to within your own four walls, not a step beyond them. In the public space it should be freedom FROM religion.
But she only says she'll change the laws so they can do what they want. Are you REALLY SURE you want the law changed to "Anyone voting against Theresa May's party can be locked up indefinitely."?
You should probably ask HR directly about that last part, linking to this article. Cover it as wanting to give them a heads up. It would be very interesting to hear what they say.

Relax, there's no reason to get snappy. I asked because I quite honestly haven't been keeping up with Ugandan politics and religious beliefs.
Do they do so in the name of God, or because they find gays icky?
You will be one of the few who doesn't buy any, but you know how herd immunity works for vaccinations, right? This will be the same basic idea.
If you think hiring a professional is expensive, just wait until you hire an amateur.
If it wasn't a pain in the ass it wouldn't be called work.
Respect is earned, not thrown into the back of a white hatchback and hauled off to somewhere people don't know where you got it from.

I have seen that happen with my country's flag.

Would you be okay with calling it 'deceiving into working for free'?

You are missing the point.

Maybe we'll get lucky and the malware writers find a bunch of "Install Anything" exploits on Windows S.
Not quite.

But somehow religious preachers seem to be exempt from those laws.
Both yes and no.

The drug dealer gets to have a jury, though.
But should violating your security clearance cost you the right to a fair trial with a jury of your peers?
From the bottom of the summary:
In some other news, Press Secretary Sean Spicer said today "@realDonaldTrump's tweets are official White House statements."
If the tweets on that account are official White House statements, then it's no longer his personal handle.
