Afaik Pornhub is based in Québec, which has data privacy/protection laws through law 25 (French, will need to translate it). I’ve had some experience with it on some projects in the last few years, would not surprise me if that was contributing to the decision as well. I’m assuming they would still need to adhere to law 25 and whatever local laws in locations they operate in, could totally be wrong there.

Another crab’s treasure was fantastic, been loving Nine Sols as well and it might be my favourite game visually, lots of hand drawn stuff and it blends Cyberpunk with Eastern mythology (devs describe as “taopunk”)

Ended up dropping for good toward the end of beyond light, my partner and I primarily pvped (just for fun, wasn’t super into ranked honestly) and was feeling really stale, was getting tired of only control (easily my least favourite gamemode) for 6s and only elim or showdown for 3s got dry, missed a variety of game modes (and personally liked 4s). It sucked because destiny had really fun PvP and amazing guns, hand cannons will be the iconic weapons to me, rolled with a chaperone/hc combo or hc/fusion rifle since house of wolves, they got bows right too, the lemonarque was fantastic.

It’s literally a thing afaik it’s because you feel like you need to be "on’, extremely draining, I sparingly have mine on for that reason. Text and voice have always been good for me, I honestly don’t see the benefit to having cameras too, I’m paying attention to what we’re discussing, not you.

The future to CEOs is next quarter, next fiscal year is the distant future.

The wording around “preserving their fertility” just feels creepy on top of the transphobia to me.

Are they going the extra mile to prevent children from being exposed to reproductive toxins because she feels so strongly about it? Make sure no child can be exposed to heavy metals or industrial solvents for example, that on the table?

In an alternate universe, one can imagine there’s a Tory leader who’s spoken of the same way and has made them unpalatable.

Harper’s mine but that’s when I actually could vote so I’m biased. Maybe Diefenbaker? Know some people who romanticise the avro arrow who dislike him for canning it and blame it for brain drain.

Yeah, Canada did the same thing last time.

At least we have CETA this time, even if it’s only provisional ATM.

Trudeau and Freeland handled the last term better than anyone around here expected.

Definitely helped having a PM with experience working with children.

Like the guy who owns the flames N Murray Edwards who were trying to get the city to buy them a new stadium that they’ve finally got funded. I recall allegations that they were trying to use it to influence the municipal election/make it an election issue.

Not saying government shouldn’t pay for infrastructure, but the public paid for a large portion of the development, they’re not giving back shit unless it personally benefits them, financially, influence or just public image. That level of wealth is unfathomable and you do not get to that level without exploitation, there is absolutely no such thing as an ethical billionaire, that includes people benefiting from generational wealth.

You know what would be beneficial? If the wealth they’re hoarding went back into the system. Imagine if those billions just sitting there doing nothing but generating dividends actually were invested into making the world a better place. At the very least, money in the hands of the people who’s labour went into generating their (virtual) wealth.

So you’re saying solar freakin benches is the answer???!!!‽

Jellyfin does support dlna as well

Not used nix so can’t comment on that, aura is a pacman wrapper + aur helper -S for package operations, -A for aur, gives you similar options too so -Au to update like -Su in pacman. Has a lot of other options that I’m probably not taking advantage of, but for me, gives me a single place to manage most everything (flathub too but I don’t use a lot of flatpaks, just nice to have)

Debian and derived is my go up generally, stable and I like apt, great out of the box on every machine I’ve used and personally found pretty much everything I want to use or run has debian and Ubuntu explicitly called out in their setup documentation. I use Ubuntu server a lot for work, I’m comfortable with it and it’s supported in every cloud environment I’ve touched. Debian on my laptop, bench machine, armbian on my 3d printers, Ubuntu server on my home server (though I kinda want to move that to debian too, just lazy and it works)

I’ve got arch on my desktop, could have probably gone for debian unstable, but figured I’d go for it. I use aura for package management. Linux is linux though, be real that I personally don’t find much of a difference beyond package management.

No problem, most games I’ve tried run without much fuss just with proton enabled. For others, protondb is great (pointed in the right direction to get Jade Empire running) or fiddling with settings yourself, gamescope helps a lot even if I’ve found it has some issues with nvidia cards (had games freeze with hdr for example), more of my issues are probably related to having an ultrawide tbh.

Sunshine works perfectly fine with nvidia on linux for me, what issue have you run into?

I’m running a 4070ti on the most recent nvidia open source drivers on arch for reference.

I ripped the bandaid off last month, there’s definitely fiddling and hdr is still in early days (works in gamescope, but found that can have issues with my nvidia card), I’ve been playing veilguard on proton ge for the last week, and proton experimental supports dlss frame gen now which is huge for me.

It’s definitely in the good enough state imo, and it seems to rapidly be getting better.

The have active electronics in them so that if any non-apple right angle connectors are used it limits them to usb 1.0 speeds and 5v 0.5A power delivery. It’s for your safety.

PCPO got a majority with 40% of the votes, with a 43.5% turnout, that’s something like 17.4% of all eligible voters. I’ve seen people say that oh Horwath was uninspiring etc etc, their (the NDP) platform sounded pretty good to me and again, you vote for your local rep in our system, not the party leader (unless you lived in Horwath’s riding).

Be real, I don’t personally care about how inspiring a politician is, I’d rather they have a good platform and hold people accountable.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northeast_blackout_of_2003

The blackout’s proximate cause was a software bug in the alarm system at the control room of FirstEnergy, which rendered operators unaware of the need to redistribute load after overloaded transmission lines drooped into foliage. What should have been a manageable local blackout cascaded into the collapse of much of the Northeast regional electricity distribution system.

Not a plant but another example of something that should have been small causing massive outages. From what I know talking to people who’ve worked for the province’s grid operator, it’s a massive job to keep everything going.
