Between this and his tough on crime nonsense, it feels like Poilievre has given up on winning anyone over and is just trying to hang on to his base. Which is a weird thing to do when your base wasn’t enough to win the last election, but whatever.

The article is out of date. According to this one, the game has been removed from sale on Steam in the UK, Canada and Australia, and the dev is going to withdraw it from Steam entirely.
Zerat Games has announced it will withdraw its sexually explicit visual novel from Steam after it was removed from sale in the UK, Canada, and Australia.
Posted to the game’s Steam page, which is no longer accessible to those who have not previously purchased the game, the developer defended its title but confirmed it would be removed from the platform.
“We don’t intend to fight the whole world, and specifically, we don’t want to cause any problems for Steam and Valve,” the developer said.
Ford backed out of canceling Starlink in February, but as far as I can tell he cancelled for good in March.
If he makes it 420% maybe Elon will get on board.
CBC’s coverage says his problem isn’t with the law itself:
Blanchet’s criticism follows Carney’s remarks Monday that a government led by him would act as an intervenor at the Supreme Court of Canada should it ever hear a challenge to Bill 96.
Carney said he would do so not because he has a problem with the legislation, but because he opposes any province’s pre-emptive use of the notwithstanding clause to pass laws.
CBC has English coverage, and the law is only described as a “trade irritant”, not anything illegal, which is surprising given the insane claims the Trump admin likes to make:
The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative released its annual list of global trade barriers Tuesday, and it includes Quebec’s controversial language law Bill 96 as a trade irritant between the two countries.
The law isn’t new but it has provisions that kick in in June that seem to be the main issue:
The changes impact the use of French in the judicial system, health care, schools, workplaces and businesses across the provincial economy, but the issue singled out as a trade barrier by the U.S. is how it impacts trademarks and labelling.
“U.S. businesses have expressed concerns about the impact that Bill 96 will have on their federally registered trademarks for products manufactured after June 1, 2025, which is when the relevant provisions of Bill 96 enter into force,” the National Trade Estimate Report said.
When the new provisions kick in this summer, trademarks displayed on a product can only appear in English if there’s no French version of the trademark registered. If the trademark or label contains generic terms or descriptions that are not in French, the trademark must be changed to include a French version of those terms and descriptions.
Companies found to have violated these changes to the law can face fines of up to $90,000 per day for their third offence, while individuals can be fined up to $42,000 a day for their third offence.
“Woke”? Didn’t he get the memo on “DEI” being the new right-wing target?
Maybe he should tell Danielle Smith to stop talking him up to the American right-wing.
He backed down and had talks with US officials. Now that Trump has shown that the talks didn’t accomplish anything Ford might be more inclined to hold his ground next time.
An x1 slot is an x1 slot, the PCIe version will downgrade but there will still only be one lane because that’s all the slot physically has connections for. It will effectively be a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot.
Pretty sure if you put a PCIe 3.0 card in a 4.0 slot the slot will drop to 3.0, and 1 PCIe 3.0 lane probably isn’t going to work great with a card meant for 4 of them.
Coincidentally(?), today Humble launched a bundle that includes both Pillars of Eternity games.
I was going to start PoE on Game Pass soon, but I think real-time with pause was what turned me off of Baldur’s Gate 1 back in the day, so I guess I’ll wait for the patch.
From the article:
In bankruptcy and receivership cases, cash-strapped companies can opt not to pay severance, forcing laid-off workers to make claims as unsecured creditors — which will likely result in pennies on the dollar.
The reason why those two new PSUs only have one 8-pin connector is because they both sport two 12V-2x6 sockets instead. The company does offer PSUs with up to three 8-pin and one 16-pin power slots.
The only reason why anyone would want to use two 12V-2x6 cables is to have a PC with two Nvidia graphics cards but given that SLI is dead and long gone on the latest generation of GeForce GPUs, dual setups are purely for AI, to let you do your own training and inference.
I’m not sure about the AI angle. The product pages for the PSUs don’t mention AI, and no company is going to make a product for AI and not mention AI.
No, because they can afford the legal fees. It will be worst for smaller sites. From the article:
With Section 230, if a website (or a user!) wants to defend its right to keep content up (or take it down), winning such a case typically costs around $100,000. Without those protections, even if you’d ultimately win on First Amendment grounds, you’re looking at about $2 million in legal fees. For Meta or Google, that’s a rounding error. For a small news site or blog, it’s potentially fatal. And this includes users who simply forward an email or retweet something they saw. Section 230 protects them as well, but without it, they’re at the whims of legal threats.
Send real eggs, but “forget” about the travel time so they arrive rotten.
He’s the founder of the paper, obviously they’re going to give him special treatment.
Their vote made it so that “democrats” have no power in the house, the senate, the office of the presidency, the supreme court, or the dozens of federal agencies that are now being gutted.
Actually, today Senate Republicans needed help from the Democrats to pass a bill to keep the government funded. And 10 Democrats helped them, including Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
RSS works too. Just add .rss to the end of the old.reddit URL for the sub, e.g. old.reddit.com/subreddit1.rss
Trump’s tariffs lowering the US wine industry’s sales is just preparation for his environmental policies lowering their production by making it harder to grow grapes. It’ll all balance out eventually.
