So who we gonna call, Ghost Busters......

You did get mixed up with the convolutional neural networks (CNN) and Cable news Network (CNN) We all know the level of deep learning from your CNN. The barrel is an apt description.

Deep learning, you mean fumbling around the bottom of the barrel to see if anything was there.

I posted this earlier. A few weeks ago I had a ruptured appendix, 12 hours in the hospital for them to discover I needed "emergency" surgery. 4 hours sat alone in a corridor until someone passed by and asked "what are you doing here". Arrived at the hospital at 3.30 am, went in for surgery at 6.15 pm. So you can stick your imaginary BS where the sun don't shine. The aftercare was excellent.

Studies in countries like Canada and the UK show that the proportion of insolvency filings by women has been increasing, nearly reaching parity with men. This trend is primarily driven by systemic financial disadvantages and specific life circumstances that make managing debt more difficult for women, despite their generally lower debt levels than men. Key Findings on the Rise of Women's Insolvency Narrowing the Gender Gap: In Canada, the percentage of consumer insolvencies filed by women increased from 42% in 2012 to approximately 49% by 2021-2024, closing the gap with men. Lower Debt Threshold: Women often file for insolvency with significantly less total unsecured debt than men (e.g., $55,117 for women versus $66,247 for men in 2024 Canadian data), because their lower average income means the debt is a heavier burden. Higher Risk of Financial Distress: Polling data indicates women are more likely than men to report being a small amount (e.g., $200) away from being unable to meet their monthly financial obligations.

The US military does not buy Jags' they use stuff from General Dynamics, GM Defense, AM General and such.

It's known as bait.

Why do you always get things so badly wrong your chickens stops laying. In the Canadian parliamentary system, fiscal updates are voted on by the House of Commons as part of the overall budgetary process. The votes on key financial documents, including the budget and associated appropriation bills, are considered matters of confidence, meaning a government that loses one of these votes must resign or call a general election. The Voting Process Main Budget/Estimates: The primary budget and the Main Estimates (spending plans for the upcoming fiscal year) are presented to Parliament. These are eventually voted on through an appropriation bill, a proposed law that authorizes the government to spend public funds. Supplementary Estimates/Fiscal Updates: Throughout the fiscal year, if the government identifies new or additional spending needs (often announced in a fall economic or fiscal update), it presents Supplementary Estimates. These, too, are voted on via subsequent appropriation bills. Confidence Votes: The votes on these financial bills are critical because they are considered confidence votes. The government needs the support of the majority of Members of Parliament (MPs) to pass its budget and spending plans to continue governing. Ways and Means Motions: Changes to taxation proposed in a fiscal update or budget also require "ways and means motions" which are voted on and enacted through legislation (like a budget implementation bill). Role of Each Chamber House of Commons: All "money bills" (bills to impose taxes or spend funds) must originate in and be passed by the House of Commons, where the government must maintain the confidence of the elected representatives. Senate: The Senate reviews and can debate the budget and appropriation bills but, by convention, does not vote on the government's estimates or typically reject money bills passed by the House.

Yes all true but the BBC still charges for use of the ether.

Why not? Would that not be a good thing, heh, Mr. Misery. Even you would not be able to ignore the benefits.

I'm in Ontario. Couple of weeks ago I posted about having to wait about 12 hours to be told I needed "emergency" surgery (ruptured appendix). Last month my optician said I need cataract removal. Was given an appointment to see an eye doctor who said no, wait a couple of years and then make another appointment. Went to a private eye clinic who wanted both arms, legs and two tickets for a Maple Leafs Stanley cup game.

odd that, the cow didn't climb the tree this morning

We used to sell a lot of snow to the US but due to global boiling not so much any more.

Was that about the time flu deaths saw a significant decrease?

Shakespeare was wrong. The BBC license fee that they took to the bank was originally for use of the ether.

and why are they catching up, maybe because we are slowing down?

Before you move the goalposts try putting them up first.
