What’s with conservative premiers elbowing their way into municipal affairs recently? Weren’t they the ones complaining about government overreach a while ago?

Anyway, I’m picturing Doug Ford busting into the provincial treasury in a car-brain fueled rage, and trying to explain that yes, he really needs $100 billion, no it’s not for drugs cars this time, it’s for economic growth

Have you ever noticed those low effort reposts also getting the same top 10 comments as the original? It’s slop all the way down.

GNOME spawning 3 new DEs every time they have a major version update

This may not fit perfectly into the that category but i think it’s cool how Lazarus Jones exists in the media in some capacity in most of the GTA games. One of the best threads of continuity throughout the series.

A message from the government of Alberta

This is Danielle Smith we’re talking about. Corruption should be taken for granted. Attempting to use her position to install her husband as the province’s preeminent rail tycoon is pretty much exactly on brand.

And the ones from China still cost less after the 100% tariff

The one on the left is definitely more haunted, though.

I kinda have to agree with Singh on this one. It’s hard to see this move as anything other than anti-worker

I don’t really have a problem with a certain amount of protectionism as a concept, but Canada has a long history of granting special privileges to specific companies in key industries, then sitting back while those powers are used to mercilessly abuse consumers. I’m not super confident this is going to be any different.

Probably have a few cards running the displays and the rest of them mining some sphere-themed memecoin

Alright, but if I end up getting stuffed in a goo-filled pod so the AI can suck my energy out through a massive plug in the back of my head, I’m gonna be pretty upset.

No, you would not pay $333k in taxes. You would add $333k to your taxable income for the year, and then pay regular tax rates on your total income.

If you made $500k in capital gains and had no other income that year, then by extremely rough estimation (I’m too lazy to pull out a calculator to get the exact figure) you would only be paying somewhere in the ballpark of $60k in federal taxes, then another $20k-$30k based on what province you live in. All things considered, that’s like a 17% effective rate, which is too damn low if you ask me.

And that’s only on amounts greater than $250k. So anyone this change actually affects is going to be fine. The people complaining about it are straight up lying.

That’s not really a fair comparison. Robber barons got to build statues and skyscrapers as testaments to their own vanity, meanwhile recorded music was still in the process of being invented. Even so, I’ll make the point that names like Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, and Tchaikovsky are equally as recognizable.

Fellow Arch user here (btw). It’s exactly the same as building AUR packages. Clone a git repo containing a PKGBUILD, use makepkg to build it, and pacman to install it. The nice thing is you can host a repo of your built packages and install them on other systems really easily. The big downside is that dependency management is not automated, so it will take some time and annoyance to map out what packages you need to build and in what order, if you want a fully source-bootstrapped system.

Flanagan is the one who called the police and deserves all the vitriol he’s getting for it. I think it’s also important to remember that the President is appointed by, and reports to the Board of Governors, who have a similarly ghoulish track record over the past 5 years. The top brass of this institution is all rotten and is only getting worse by the day.

I think this is a good enough reason to actually put in some effort to phase out ipv4 and dhcp. There shouldn’t be a way for some random node on the network to tell my node what device to route traffic over. Stateless ipv6 for the win.

She zeroed in on journalism schools and her thoughts that not enough conservative journalists and commentators have come out of those programs.

That has nothing to do with federal funding and everything to do with the current version of conservatism being completely idiotic.
