The one resident is right. Cars are currently forced to drive through the residential area, and this lane would solve that problem. I think it’s a better use of funds to reduce noise, toxic dust, and risk of injury in Riverbend than to try and convince people who choose to live 20km away from the city centre to take transit.

I wouldn’t trust the analysis either; luckily most PKGBUILD scripts are quite short and simple. It would take significantly less effort to hand-audit every single file I’ve gotten from the AUR than it would to reinstall Arch.

The gutenprint package might have the driver you need. Otherwise, the AUR is your best option.

The way its head tilts forward after the first stumble, it almost makes it look embarrassed. Very nearly made me feel bad for laughing as hard as I did.

Sterling Archer.

Kinda sad how our armed forced are that dependent on US tech. Like yeah it’s E2EE, but it gives the US the ability to brick our communications if they really want to.

Surely the CAF has the resources to spin up their own secure xmpp service or something.

I thought Mark Kurlansky sounded familiar so I just looked and yup, he wrote Salt: a World History. I adore that book, but I haven’t really looked into any of his other work yet. What else would you recommend by him?

We used internet comments as one of the ingredients.

Ford said that would run contrary to a free market.

“There’s no better way of letting people get lower costs on no matter if it’s cars or homes or groceries, than competition”

Nothing like a good old price-fixing scheme between friendly oligarchs to really affirm the spirit of competition.

I’ve met 7th graders with a better understanding of economics.

I used Opus 4.6 Extended

Stop being cheap, OP. You clearly just need to shell out multiple billions of dollars for access to mythos /s

This song is so big in my part of the country it’s hard to believe it’s not an international hit. Good nomination!

If this is the type of person the Liberals are able to convince to join them, I shudder to think about what’s in store for us under a Carney majority.

To add a tiny bit of technical detail here, vanilla Arch enforces support for x86_64 v1, meaning all software available in the Arch repos is built to not use any cpu feature that didn’t exist in v1. Not a bad thing since it allows for support of older (64 bit) hardware, but it does leave like 20 years of microarchitecture advancement on the table.

According to the CachyOS website, they have repos with software built for v3 and v4 which can apparently juice your rig for an extra 20% performance.

Yes. In Alberta, especially in the central/northern region, the time change doesn’t serve any particular purpose. Our daylight hours are very long in the summer and very short in the winter, so changing the specific time the sun rises and sets hardly makes a difference.

Personally I prefer standard time over DST, and I think a lot of people here share that opinion. We probably would have switched over years ago if our government had any shred of competence.

*Supports Avi Lewis*

*Joins Liberals*

At least with the Conservative floor crossers, you can see how they would get the idea of Carney maybe helping advance their ultimate goals. But this does not make sense to me. The way Carney is governing is pretty much at odds with Avi Lewis-type policy.

All of this seems impossible to enforce in the FOSS ecosystem. People can just fork the software and remove any restriction they don’t like. That’s kind of the whole point of free software. Users are free to use their devices however they like, including in ways that are not intended by the devloper.

And the address space is big enough you can choose a new random address between every connection to avoid tracking.

It pisses me off how this is the second time Danielle Smith’s party is going to get bailed out by a war.

They’re terrible at running the province 99% of the time, but the moment it seems like the consequences might finally catch up – nope! The price of oil jumps and everyone says “oh yeah, I guess they’re doing fine,” and stops paying attention again.

Subscribed/New most of the time, but I check All/Active every once in a while to see if there’s any drama going on.

Sometimes I’ll hit All/Scaled when I’m really desperate.

Wow, someone should tell the City of Edmonton about this. Last year they eliminated physical parking machines in the city, and there is a QR code on basically every parking sign now. I wonder if anyone considered how vulnerable QR codes are to these imitation scams.

I assume they already have active countermeasures in place, but then again, online-only street parking seems rather ill-conceived to begin with.
