  • Personally, I don't think so. Justin had the right ideas and the right attitude when he was first elected. But the Liberals made him fit in their mold (mould? As in cake?) and he basically stepped in line with what the lobbies told him.

    I doubt very much that Carney will change any of that. He's going to focus on the economy as usual and leave the middle class to fend for themselves.

    That's why I voted NDP.

  • Windows is getting so enshittified that even regular non tech users are noticing all the crap features that are being force fed.

    A lot of people find MacOS fun. I really haven't used it enough (or barely) to have an opinion. But it seems to be a powerful OS when you know how to use it. Especially since its based on BSD.

  • When Trudeau came in, it was after a few governments led by Stephen Haper and the conservatives. It was a bleak time for Canada. When Justin Trudeau came, he was a huge ray of hope, plus he carries the Trudeau name. He was gong to be a progressive prime minister and leader of the Liberal party and promised a lot of changes that would make the middle class life so much easier.

    But many problems started to grow in Canada and blew out of porportion. Like the housing crisis, or well established alomost monopolistic companies gouging Canadians on essential services and goods like telecom and groceries. This became worst after the pandemic. And people felt Trudeau's Liberals did too little, too late.

    The middle class suffered a lot while richer Canadians and Canadian corporations thrived by keeping their gouging practices.

  • If it's a minority government, the conservatives are going to be the opposition and they're going to block everything.

    They might still have to make a coalition with the NDP but most importantly, the Bloc québécois.

    Frank and Oak apparel are having a sale

    Sadly it's because they are filling for bankruptcy and will be closing down their physical stores. But their online stores will remain open.

    Their clothes are of incredible quality and look great.

    Problems with Flatpak - Downloads fail

    I'm using Kubuntu 24.04

    I installed flatpak and am trying to perform updates but they keep failing. Mainly the downloads keep failing with "Failure when receiving data from the peer." And downloads are painfully slow.

    Maybe the main servers are at full capacity? Can I configure mirrors maybe? Where can I find a list?

    Un bon site de torrents d'émissions Québécoises?

    On a débarqué toutes les plateformes en-ligne comme Netflix, Paramount, Amazon, etc. On a donné une chance aux plateformes locales, mais elles sont trop dispendieuses, surtout quand tu dois t'en payer une demi-douzaine à la fois pour avoir accès à tout et que c'est pourri de publicité avec le volume dans le tapis.

    Je veux juste regarder Lakay Nou. Savez-vous où on peut trouver ça en torrent?

    Bob Light - Lager blonde américaine légère à 4%

    Vous cherchez un remplacement canadien ou local à votre Bud Light?

    Voici la BOB Light! Une belle lager blonde légère style américaine, mais 100% canadienne (québécoise, même!)

    Une bière brassée à Acton Vale en Estrie par Bob Magnale Artisans Brasseurs, cette bière 100% orge saura étancher votre soif.

    Nez très léger de céréales, légèrement florale, très faible amertume en bouche, un peu sèche.

    Overall une excellente bière à partager entre amis durant un après-midi bien chaud en faisant un barbecue, ou en regardant une partie de votre sport préféré avec des chips, des pinottes salées ou du pop corn.

    Excellente bière! Ça tombe vraiment dans mes cordes. Elle me rapelle beaucoup la bière blonde d'une autre microbrasserie à l'ouest de Montréal qui s'appelait Les brasseurs du lac. Je ne retrouve plus aucune trace d'eux. Je me demande ce qui leur est arrivé ou est-ce que je me trompe de nom?

    St-Ambroise ambrée à l'érable

    Ça fait un moment que je n'ai rien publié ici. Vendredi j'ai acheté une St-Ambroise ambrée à l'érable. Je viens de l'ouvrir pour un petit apéro avec des noix, des craquelins et du fromage Oka à l'érable.

    La bière a une belle couleur de sirop d'érable. Au nez, ça sent le sirop d'érable et en bouche ça goûte le sirop d'érable avec un petit indice céréalier. Douce en bouche, aucune amertume. C'est comme se taper une pinte de sirop d'érable.

    C'est vraiment bon mais ça tombe vite sur le coeur.

    S'il y avait une bière à prendre avec son petit déjeuner deux oeufs bacon, c'est bien celle-là.

    Santé!

    Recommendations for a good photo printing application?

    Hello linux@lemmy.world!

    I've completely switched from dual boot to full Linux last year and I've been struggling to find the one tool that could replace the printer software that came with my Canon printer.

    My printer came with an application that allows me to print border-less photos and apply fixes such as colour correction, remove red eyes, etc. So far I haven't found any application that allows me to print photos properly.

    I'm using Kubuntu 24.04 and I tried using Gwenview to print my photos. While the dialog allows me to configure my printer to print on 4x6 border-less photo paper, it still prints with ~4mm borders.

    I'm also asking myself, is this more of a KDE Plasma printing issue or an application printing issue?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    EDIT: I'm even considering using paid software at this point. Any solution is welcome.
