  • There's a different line for the poor.

  • The funders who funded him, the think tanks that created his policy, the media that propagandizes his voters, the voters that vote for him, none of those are going away, and the feedback loops connecting them don't seem likely to be stopping anytime soon.

  • BTW, just in case you want a different domain, not saying you do, but I gave feddit.ca to the admins a couple of years ago. 😊

  • You should read about what happened to domestic left parties and people after WWII. Also what the US did to left elements abroad. The state of the left in the US today didn't evolve naturally to its current status quo.

    Mainstreet poll for Ontario shows LPC at 40 and CPC at 39 🤔

  • Something occurred to me while watching some news yesterday. It won't take ICE raids removing people from farms for the effect to materialize. The fear from raids will cause people to stop showing up for work at the farms before that. That's why I think we'll see the effects on food prices quicker.

    Chrystia Freeland says she's running against the 'Ottawa establishment' in Liberal leadership race

    Liberal leadership hopeful Chrystia Freeland says she's running against the "Ottawa establishment" as more federal cabinet ministers rally around her top rival Mark Carney, governor of the Bank of Canada.

    "It's central to my campaign to see this not about Liberal elites deciding. This is about the grassroots," Freeland said in an interview on CBC's The House that will air on Saturday.

    I see.

    “However, given the sizeable population shock, real GDP per capita would be 1.4 per cent higher in 2027 under the 2025-2027 [Immigration Levels Plan],” the report said

  • Oh yes I didn't mean to deny the point on housing.

  • Don't they have to rework their refineries in order to replace Canadian oil? Instead the refineries currently working with Canadian oil are specifically built to process dillbit, due to having been built to use Venezuelan dillbit originally.

  • I suppose Albertans in oil and gas should call Danielle and tell her to stop the clown tricks and join Team Canada now.

    Trump says U.S. doesn't need Canada's oil, gas, vehicle or lumber imports

    Trump says the United States does not need oil, gas, vehicles, or lumber imports from his allies to the north.

    Trump made the comments Thursday, in his first speech to world leaders since returning to the White House for his second term.

  • While I do not want to vote for Singh, the leader, I would vote for the NDP candidate in my riding if the polls don't show them far behind.

  • Perhaps not good but less bad is what we look for.

    PSA: Swollen battery on Timemore Black Mirror 🔥⚠️

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/31824976

    Lately I've had some obviously inaccurate measurements from my Timemore Black Mirror scale. That would happen occasionally but not always. I was charging it today and as luck would have it, I was sitting beside it. I typically charge it unattended. I noticed that it took a very long time to charge and multiple times it seemed to restart charging. I grabbed it to check the cable and noticed it was quite warm in one spot. I though - that's alright, it's likely where the battery cell is, it's charging, lithium cells get warm during charging. Later I took it off the charger and while handling it I examined the hot spot a bit more. I noticed that when I squeezed the scale at that corner, the top plate wouldn't sink towards the bottom as it does in the other corners. A few mental calculations later I figured this could be a swollen cell that has grown so large that it impacts the plates and doesn't let them come together as they do normal

    I'm syncoiding from my normal RAIDz2 to a backup mirror made of 2 disks. I looked at zpool iostat and I noticed that one of the disks consistently shows less than half the write IOPS of the other:

                                            capacity     operations     bandwidth

    This is also evident in iostat:
