Gotta love the great maze routes. It takes forever to follow them the first few times before learning a route by heart.
Hanlon's razor in shambles
Which is why the guy tha lost might have been a better option.
Oh totally, the snafu here was they were prepared to go to an indigenous protest. Instead they went to a Palestinian protest, while dressed in blue.
Entirely possible, but I'm not convinced yet. I'm still with Hanlon's razor on this one.
Buddy just can't connect the dots that minimum wage doesn't cover housing anymore, that he's been holding it down for years, that he weakened rent control that kept low income people housed, and that he's been letting his buddies build just detached houses and luxury condos.
It's just so dumb, and even dumber considering that he literally has the magic wand and to drastically improve things. Just a significant enough hike of the minimum wage would automatically put a damper on more people ending up on the street, overnight.
On Monday, Ontario Premier Doug Ford held forth on the topic of homelessness, repeating his long-articulated view that many of those receiving government support should be working.
> “Get an application and drop it off (at) one of these companies and start working, you need to start working if you’re healthy — bottom line — if you’re unhealthy, I’ll take care of you the rest of my life, your life, we’ll take care of you,” the premier said. > > “But if you’re healthy, get off your A-S-S and start working like everyone else is.”
> The Toronto District School Board is holding a special meeting on Wednesday evening to discuss a field trip to a protest in support of an Indigenous community last week. According to videos on social media, pro-Palestinian slogans were chanted at the protest.

The yen rebounded against the dollar on Ishiba's victory after falling on news he would face the run-off against Takaichi, a monetary dove and fiscal expansionist.
A monetary hawk, or hawk for short, is someone who advocates keeping inflation low as the top priority in monetary policy. In contrast, a monetary dove is someone who emphasizes other issues, especially low unemployment, over low inflation.
Not sure if they got the better deal here.
Wow , the owner was really lucky not getting under the car.
I'm not sure why every time I look at this project, it rubs me the wrong way. Anyone found anything wrong with it?
I think the jury is still out on this one but there's definitely been some of it as opposed to zero. There's still a disturbingly high number of billionaires which makes me feel they either don't cut down enough or when they do, it's for show.
It's a recording heads factory.
It's kinda inevitable isn't it. If you put more people to study, do R&D, engineering, provide the necessary resources for them to do those things, the more hours worked should produce results faster. You limit the health and safety guardrails a bit and things get even faster. Skip having to do the earlier development by getting foreign capitalists to build factories on your soil and share their IP, and things get even faster.
Corporations - which are already pretty damned conservative - will back the CPC with ten times the money if this happens. It would be lovely, but would guarantee a Poilievre win.
I doubt it'll work. There are significant limits to political spending. Corpos can't fund political campaigns directly and there isn't an easy or unlimited way to do it indirectly. It's gotta go via individuals and the limits there are small. The cons will get more but I don't think it'll be dramatically more.
That will prevent the CPC (or anyone else) from securing a majority in the next election, but I don’t think it’ll win the election for him.
Yes.
At the end of the day, I honestly don’t believe Trudeau can win another election under any reasonable circumstances. The best he can do is stack the deck in the party’s favour, and then step down.
In the current status quo probably true. Who knows what could happen with PP till the election. Perhaps something unreasonable would come out. 😅
I was a bit baffled that there's some traffic enforcement in Toronto. Then I saw it's not Toronto. 😅
The other parties can table this too can't they?
I would take the delay along with the implementation of policies like pharmacare, and then have Poilinever having to either promise to not touch it or say he'll cut it during the election campaign, thank you very much. There's a lot that can happen till the next fall. Inflation is down, mortgages are falling, who knows what could come out about Pipsqueak till then.
There's other options too. Among them: a massive swing away from corporate smell along with popular pro-labor rhetoric and actions; electoral reform without stepping down; Jagmeet introducing electoral reform in the current parliament, Trudeau supporting it, etc.
Is that a thing at all? I doubt it but thought I'd check just in case.

Majority believe CPC has ‘hidden agenda’ it won’t reveal until the party is in office September 18, 2024 – The House of Commons returns from its summer break this week in a more precarious situation than it left, as the minority Liberals govern without the firm backstop of a supply and confidence ag...
> In the absence of these important policy proposals, there is evidently some apprehension among Canadians. Half (46%) say they are “fearful” of the CPC forming government, while fewer (35%) anticipate it with hope. A majority (54%) suspect Poilievre and the CPC have a “hidden agenda” that won’t be revealed until after the party wins the elections. > > There is also some doubt that a Poilievre-led government can balance the budget and lower income taxes as promised, even if most view them to be “good things”. More than two-in-five (45%) say neither will happen. > > !
> Over the years, Live Nation has also been buying up independent local venues. The company currently owns several concert halls in Canada: the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver; Midway in Edmonton; and Budweiser Stage, Danforth Music Hall, History, RBC Echo Beach, Velvet Underground, and most recently, The Opera House in Toronto.
> The Teamsters union has served Canadian National Railway (CN) with a 72-hour strike notice, hours after saying it was taking down picket lines and workers were returning to the job.
Albertan minister, a Chamber of Commerce guy and a CN rail official. No union representation. This is a bit shameful from the CBC. At least the interviewer did ask a few questions on behalf of labor.
I asked a relative to look for RealVNC on the Play Store and install it. Once they were done, I asked them to fulfill a basic task inside RealVNC and they were really confused by my instructions. I took a look at their phone, lo and behold, they had installed a different app. I asked them to repeat the install procedure while I watched. They punched in "realvnc" in the search box, two identically formatted results appeared. Their finger instinctively clicked the Install button on the top result. It was an ad. 🤦♂️🤦♀️🤦

> Labour Minister Randy Boissonnault is considering "a refusal to process in the low wage stream if the abuse and misuse does not improve," said labour ministry spokesperson Mathis Denis.
Considering eh?
"The simple fact is: Whether you're running for the White House or a city council seat, if you stand with working people, they will stand with you," said Sen. Bernie Sanders.
It seems like "radical left policies" are supported by a significant majority of Americans.
It's fairly obvious why stopping a service while backing it up makes sense. Imagine backing up Immich while it's running. You start the backup, db is backed up, now image assets are being copied. That could take an hour. While the assets are being backed up, a new image is uploaded. The live database knows about it but the one you've backed up doesn't. Then your backup process reaches the new image asset and it copies it. If you restore this backup, Immich will contain an asset that isn't known by the database. In order to avoid scenarios like this, you'd stop Immich while the backup is running.
Now consider a system that can do instant snapshots like ZFS or LVM. Immich is running, you stop it, take a snapshot, then restart it. Then you backup Immich from the snapshot while Immich is running. This should reduce the downtime needed to the time it takes to do the snapshot. The state of Immich data in the snapshot should be equivalent to backing up a stopped Immich instance.
Now consider a case like above without stopping Immich while taking the snapshot. In theory the data you're backing up should represent the complete state of Immich at a point in time eliminating the possibility of divergent data between databases and assets. It would however represent the state of a live Immich instance. E.g. lock files, etc. Wouldn't restoring from such a backup be equivalent to kill -9 or pulling the cable and restarting the service? If a service can recover from a cable pull, is it reasonable to consider it should recover from restoring from a snapshot taken while live? If so, is there much point to stopping services during snapshots?
Ford says it plans to start making its F-Series Super Duty pickups at a plant in Ontario, Canada beginning in 2026 in order to keep up with customer demand for the vehicle.
> The investment preserves about 1,800 jobs in Oakville, plus Ford will add 150 workers at a Windsor, Ontario, engine plant and about 70 positions at some U.S. component factories.
