That’s the bare minimum requirements needed to live in Toronto as a human, lol

No, I don’t think so.
It’s never described like this, but I think this move opens the door for the province to tighten the screws on cigarette sales, potentially opening the door for a cigarette ban now. The alcohol sales are a lifeline for convenience stores for when they lose cigarettes.
Tinc has weird limitations and Wireguard completely obsoletes it. There’s zero reasons to ever consider using Tinc when Wireguard exists.
How are the alternatives any better? Download a DEB that executes arbitrary code, signed with some .asc that’s sitting in the same webserver? Download an EXE?
Your comment is so rambley that I can’t understand whether you’re criticizing the distribution method or the packaging. Both of those are very different in terms of attack surface, if you’re talking about supply chain attacks.
In Canada, these machines used to have glass bottles. (20oz?) Anyone else remember that?
The only way I can describe the Titanfall 2 campaign is it’s the giant robot game you always wanted subconsciously. It’s just great, perfect length.
The online favourite in Zandronum (multiplayer ZDoom) was Alien Vendetta, an awesome Doom2 campaign WAD. (av.wad or av20.wad) It’s just super solid with lots of variety and good pacing. Made by a bunch of different mappers.
I could be wrong here, but I think the common interpretation here is wrong. The risk is not that the wires overheat and cause a fire. The risk is that the card draws too much current from a single 12V power rail on your PSU, sustained for a long time, and that burns out the power rail on your PSU.
I have a 6950 XT that I used with a 850W PSU that was connected incorrectly according to the diagram, with multiple connectors coming off a single rail. After about 6 months, one day my SSD stopped working, and after some tinkering, I realized that if I plugged it into a different 12V connector, it started working! I had burned out one of the 12V rails on my power supply, and I strongly suspect it was my incorrect wiring into my 6950 XT that caused it. (edit: I got a new PSU and never looked back)
Ford, Stellantis, GM, Honda, Toyota: source (click “Made in Canada”). Both countries assemble many cars where parts are made in the US/Canada/Mexico (see: NAFTA/CUSMA aka USMCA)
edit: also for context, auto manufacturing is a big political football here in Ontario, with politicians always announcing funding and looking for photo ops around it because they’re big employers in manufacturing
Come to Toronto lol
Same thing happens when you put on spandex apparently
The thing is, nothing gets done unless the government regulates it. The industry would just keep pumping out ICE vehicles. The only reason we have EVs at all is because most car companies saw the writing on the wall about the very necessary phaseout of ICE and knew this would be legislated sooner or later. I fully expect EVs will have either great range or super fast charging by 2035 because the market will be there to support it. (Regulating is solves the chicken and the egg problem - it guarantees demand so it de-risks investing in EV tech for the entire supply chain.)
It just moves the pollution to places you don’t see it, like power plants, rare metal mines
The thing is, many places already have power that is free of CO2 emissions and mines are not huge CO2 emitters (afaik).
As a case point: In Toronto, 30% of our emissions are from vehicles, 60% from buildings (natural gas heating mostly). If we ran all EVs, that 30% emissions from vehicles would be eliminated because nearly all our power either comes from hydro dams or nuclear power plants. And there’s no shortage of power either - we have loads of excess capacity at night, when everyone would charge their cars.
I think you’re getting downvotes because you’re misinformed about the cost/benefits of EVs and the broader important (and urgency) of reducing carbon emissions. It’s such a critical and urgent challenge that we have to tackle this to avoid huge impacts on our economies due to heating of the climate (crop failures, flooding, more severe weather, erosion, wildfires, etc.).
Every time I look at this, the value proposition makes no sense to me. The DIY V1 and V2 only have instructions for adding a single HDMI input port (??), and the V3 and V4 are like $350 CAD, which is way more expensive than buying a used KVM on eBay. What am I missing?
It’s a misnomer for sure, but that’s why it’s a funny label.
How can it cost 3x as much as an F-35?
Here’s what the official government news releases say:
$19 billion for 88 F-35s = $216 million each - source
$2.5 billion for 11 Reapers = $227 million each source
… so I don’t think you’re right.
Edit: This CBC article quotes an unnamed “senior defence official” as saying the first four F-35s we purchased cost $85 million per plane, whereas the numbers quoted in the press releases above are the all-in costs including all the “sustainment set-up and services” such as ground control centers, training, etc. So without being an expert on this stuff, I do think the numbers in the press releases are a better apples-to-apples comparison.
Edit 2: but yeah, your point still stands… Is a Reaper worth as much as an F-35? Beats me…
The transport trucks that will go 1000km don’t.
This guy’s the worst at putting together a pursuasive argument. Almost all the problems he wrote wil have solutions we engineer in the future. Dismissing electric cars, the very real and imminent problem they have of CO2 emissions, based on cherry picking current problems they have in different countries is disingenuous and short sighted. eg. California’s CO2 emissions problems at night cannot be generalized to other places.
And the punchline of this article is an apples-to-oranges comparison - you can’t harp on transport trucks and then argue the solution is walking and biking.
Lithium batteries (or their successor) will get cheaper, lighter, and more energy dense because there’s a massive market opportunity for that now. This article completely ignores our ability to advance technology to solve problems, lol.
This is such good politics and such bad governance.
