Everything is politics.


“Lost the popular vote” is commonly understood to mean they aren’t the party with the most votes. The conservatives were unarguably the party with the most votes. They won the popular vote.
Im not a fan of this outcome either but don’t try to spin the results by redefining terms.


Formatted HD. Have then try to search the BIOS.


It’s not 32% get searched, it increased by 32%. It’s still not common.


Export tarrifs is a sketchy game to start playing. We still buy a bunch of food and other important stuff from the USA. I try not to, but I wouldnt want to impact food security.
Maybe the people selling tge specialized stuff to farmers just increase their price for Americans. This is definitely a situation where we the individuals have the collective power to fuck them.


The rail strike was absolutely ridiculous. CP and CN absolutely colluded to create that and the government did absolutely noting to seperate the strikes or hold them accountable.
Also don’t forget, CN and CP LOCKED OUT the union. Also they stopped shipping any new dangerous goods weeks before the lockout to make sure that those that relied on DG shipments to power generators in Quebec and clean their municipal water supplies would be loosing their shit on day one of the lockout. They also posted messaging warning people about potential unsafe drinking water if the lockout went on too long.


The government could literally spin up their own Mastodon instance with minimal investment and management needed
But then comes the hard part: getting people to use it, especially normal people. Even just getting the politicians on it would be difficult.


Or the ones that become too powerful.


That’s the concern with it looking like a potentially great malware vector as things move forward if people are trusting more and more things to AI generated code and not doing thorough review processes.
Kind of a sci-fi thought… what happens if AI uses AI slop code as a vector to insert subtle bits of code in multiple projects that seem innocuous on their own but are actually creating a distributed AI hive mind.
I’m not saying I think that’s what’s happening right now or that it’s possible any time soon, but we’ve seen malware inserted in apps, bitcoin mining on iPhone apps, etc. Skynet Super Claude being created without us noticing isn’t maybe the craziest thing? Someone else said this project is 57k lines of code; aint nobody got time to check all that.


Was that basically the uniform of all non blue collar men of the 60’s or something?


Some employers with ties to other countries were sort of selling work visas. They’d get the LMIA permit (or whatever its called) and then get someone that wanted to come to Canada but couldn’t immigrate any other way to pay 10’s of thousands to come work that job.


It was nice knowing you.


Maybe we’ll see a federal party that’s a provincial voting block, similar to the PQ, spring up in the west in the semi near future.
You mean like the reform party but more spicy?


eventually settling on the winning side
Hardly… but I don’t see why picking a side on anything in the referendum mattered. The referendum was to see what Albertans wanted and they told her.


Jim Pattison owns a bunch of grocery stores of different types. I believe its the same rewards program for ALL of them so thats like 60% of all grocery stores in BC.


It IS way deeper than just the stuff happening right now. The problems go back many decades, almost a century.


Thats why the USA is pushing it and welcoming these separatist leaders to special meetings. If Alberta separates then we’ll hose them on the pipeline and there will be no future pipeline expansion. The USA is the one that stands to benefit from that because they’ve been hosing Alberta for years on the oil.


I had a sienna for a while and it had TONS of room, had a corolla that was great, and a couple of older toyotas that had decent room. Recently I got a ride in a newer RAV4 taxi/rideshare and was absolutely shocked at how shit the headroom and seat was… I was in the front seat as well.


If you’re on lemmy it’s well within your wheelhouse.
Sigh… ya probably.
Ya. A used 3050 is cheaper than that, still has 8 outputs and 8gb of VRAM. Its cool to see this done as a hobby project but it sounds like this guy just bought it as is, so what’s the point?
