In an ideal world Canada would not need to choose between such nations for economic stability but we got caught with our pants down and need to scramble for solutions fast.

China has been greatly expanding their projection of soft power while the US surrendered theirs almost entirely to focus on hard power. Surprising literally nobody, making threats of invasion and abducting leaders of other nations is a great way to drive away your (ex) allies and trade partners.

What the fuck

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t. Also subreddit mods will sometimes remove such posts.

I’m so fuckin tired of Israel.

Sim has got to go ASAP.

thanks!

Thanks!

I’m lightly active in the headphone enthusiast space. Even in the more light-hearted circles there is still an elevated amount of placebo bullshit and stubborn belief in things that verifiably make zero difference.

It’s rather fascinating in a way. I’ve been in and out of various hobbies over the course of my life but there is just something about audio that attracts an atmosphere of wilful ignorance and bad actors that prey on it.

American exceptionalism at work. Decades of being lead to believe they are the solver of the world’s problems and the centre of the “free” world. I’d also many don’t even know that the French were involved because US education is very good at altering history to make them look superior.

Indeed. I ended up with the 4 because a local electronics shop had it for a good price back in the day.

I have a Pi 4 running as a PiHole and Pi 5 running as an SDR server with 2 radios attached to it. Both are connected via Tailscale as well so I can access both from anywhere I want, especially useful for the PiHole so I have adblocking anywhere on any device.

They’re done. I hope their devs can find better employment elsewhere.

Voting overwhelmingly in favour of a tough-on-crime policy with one hand and literally stealing from their own party with the exact same hand.

You can’t even make this shit up. This is conservative politics in a shellnut.

Just his handlers.

Base model Macbook Airs are very hard to beat for price:performance, especially now the new base model has 16gb of RAM. I’ve been to numerous local computer shops and felt and tried numerous Windows laptops that were around the same price and they all felt like flimsy plastic trash.

The Mac Mini is also very good for its price and size. My dad is considering a base model Mini to replace his Windows office computer which is on 10 and reached EOL and he doesn’t want 11.

WeatherCAN which is made and run by Environment Canada (government run). Many weather services and apps get their data from them anyway so might as well get it right from the source.

I wish I could be that comfy.

No way in hell I’d pay its nearly $100CAD asking price.

It is treason.

Some good news at least. Pattison has pulled out of the sale of their warehouse to ICE.
