France Canada

  • wow I paid 1.214 last week in Ontario (compared to 1.569 in Québec)

  • IrAn hAs bAcKwArD mIlItArY cApaBiLiTiEs but can shot down a brand new F35, as a Canadian I cannot wait for Canada to spend 29 billions for like 16 F35 !

  • My solution is to never posts/comments on reddit, after 15 years there, I stopped 2 years ago.

  • It looks like there is ~25'000 empty condo (built or currently being build) in Toronto right now, incredible... Who wants a 400sqft condo for 1M (+ housing taxes + 1000$ fee, per month)?

  • PP having lost is seat is the funniest thing ever :)

  • I guess nothing is accessible directly

  • I am using a simple application named "Car Scanner", on my phone, it connects via bluetooth to the $4 OBD2 dongle, and it works in Android Auto, can display all kind of info on the multimedia screen.

  • I'd be completely lost with BEPO...

    I used QWERTY US in 80-90, it was the only available keyboard on 8bit machine (Sinclair, Amstrad, Commodore, etc), then AZERTY in 90-00 because I had a PC, then moved to Québec so since ~2000 use QWERTY FR_CA. Because of all the switch and never learning how to type, I still type with like 2 fingers :)

  • no, the one you put is the "official" french canadian one, used mostly by gov, but everyday people are using the "normal" one

    This is why we have not conquered the world yet :)

    Do you not use BEPO ?

  • French Canadian keyboard is QWERTY but with all kind of symbol, like the 1 to = top row can give

    with shift !"/$%?&*()_+

    with altcar ±@£¢¤¬¦²³¼½¾

    We also have the µ¯§¶«»°

    and we can do all kind of Èîöç etc

  • eille wow non étant Français, AZERTY c'est cool :)

    ¤ is the currency symbol

  • Remember to only buy items on sale, all the others ones are overinflated. For instance the ratchet kit at $699 will go on sale at 80% off every 2 months, etc.

  • Same problem in Montréal, thousands of empty condos, they are small and expensive. And condo fee kill the deal compared to owning a house...

  • This is what I was thinking, when more and more phone offer 5000+, samsung offer 20% less...

  • 3900mAh ?!? what?!? sure you cannot do a day without charging it, pretty lame. And it's so thin you'll bend it.

  • Yes, at least seeing a 50yo guy like me. We come from the 8bit world, there was no linux!

  • In University. In the 90s we used commercial un*x (HP-UX, IRIX, AIX, Solaris/SunOS, SCO) and some others like SVR4, BSD, Minix. Then a guy on usenet talked about making is own kernel running on a 386. My first real full linux install was kernel 0.99 on a 486DX50, around 1993, came in multiple floppies, then to install X11 that was like 10 more floppies! Configuring things was a bit nighmarish.

  • Also, when I think Mafia in Ontario, I think construction.

    oh boy, Montréal, construction is 100% run by mafia it's incredible, at every level

  • hé, I'm in Québec, I'd need a nice ride in buses with thousands of others Canadians to tell Alberta we love them!
