Got 248 hours on record. It’s probably my top city builder at this point.

2Gbit FTTH for $50 cad per month

apologies I actually meant to put the archive link in the post but seem to have forgotten.

As to why I would post a pay-walled article is simple; I believe if we want to continue having quality journalism in this country it is something we need to appropriately fund. We can't rely on only the CBC (and not just because PP and the cpc want to destroy it). As far as I can tell this is original reporting from the Star so I do kinda feel it is morally correct to link to them first. (although I do not disagree with archive links for paywall bypass maybe that makes me a hypocrite.. meh)

I feel its also especially important to fund the star right now as it is one of the last Canadian owned mainstream news outlets that isnt distinctly right wing (even if it is slowly drifting to the right imo) and isn't ideologically driven (IE Press Progress, CanadaLand).

Others have given direct context but general context within Canada is that the federal parties and provincial parties are only tangentially related. However I would say historically Ontario has had the provincial parties most closely aligned to their federal counterparts.

Ontario also had a very odd habit of always voting in opposition to the federal party in power. (IE feds are liberal so we go conservative). Ford actually recently called an early election precisely because he was worried that PP would be in power federally which would have drastically harmed his performance if Ontario had its election as planned.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned here but is in the article is how odd it is that he turned down P but met personally not just with our new PM Carney of the liberals, but with Christia Freeland one of the most prominent federal liberals. She is also now the minister in charge of internal trade. Something currently both (if not all) parties are closely aligned on solving.

I don’t think it’s an issue of his image, but of what he can personally benefit from it. He sees a sinking ship, so he’s distancing himself from PP

completely agree. Ford is a populist cut from a different cloth than PP. He realized a lot quicker that Trump style conservative rule isn't going to fly here yet (hopefully never). He's also a lot more open to backing down when he realizes he read the room wrong instead of doubling down.

Ford’s far more slimey than you’re giving him credit. It’s obvious when you consider that he widely advertised the 25% energy surcharge, then backed off of it quietly when the US gave him some compliments and offered him a seat to a talk without a single promise, and he went around claiming he “did something” despite nothing coming out of it, all being paid for by taxpayers.

I will disagree with this however. Between Ford's meeting with Carney and other Feds from when the surcharge was added till now it feels more like he was asked to get onboard with a new tact. I honestly think he was better at being the blowhard but I'm willing to let this cook for a bit and see where it goes.

You can access locally when the internet is down. You just need to set the login bypass for the local network. IMO it’s kinda a stupid step needed in setup but it is available.

In an interview post video release he mentions only using the Tesla as is the only one he’s aware of only using cameras. Luminar wasn’t named as a car brand or anything really as this was not intended as a promotion for them.

He even said during the interview he loves his Tesla and will more than likely buy another. Which tbh was a bit disappointing. But I do think highlights most of the criticism here is largely unfounded and fanboy antics.

The fall of civilizations - it tells the story of the rise and fall of different groups of people through history. Often with readings in the original tongue.

From the same creator “vaccine” is the history of the creation of the works first vaccines. Neither podcast has any ads which is awesome.

Lastly factually with Adam conover is great. Comedian discussing often political issues.

Trying to be honest with myself here. I’d say probably 80. I’d struggle hard if it went away, but breaks while rare aren’t too much of a struggle.

"Folks I appointed them for the exact reason you are mad at me for. So stop being mad at me. I did it on purpose not by mistake!"

Rofl what a defence.

Fundamentally do not understand why they wouldn't be appointing judges.

There are two Walmart locations that were announced after the original staples locations were. Iirc.

Total bs. We should have the right to know what our governments goals are.

Exactly what I was thinking. This just sounds like it would be a victim impact statement which serves very standard.

I also fail to see how it could possibly be considered irrelevant.

My Godfather tried to read that to me in it's entirety when I was 4 lol.

Really cranked it up to 11 this week. Holy crap

From the cover we saw Ferdinand in pain. I wonder if it will be from giving his name to myne; given that we now know she has his name stone.

Does make me worried about Ferdinand being in pain on the cover of this part.

You miss the part where they were blocking roads while honking? Hell there were splinter groups blocking the border crossings. lol

Im in basically the same position since realistically the change needs to be at an institutional level. I can't really change anything by myself without excluding myself from most modern services.

We need laws and regulations. But like you I fear it's too late.
