Not really a close relative, cacao is not a legume

I think what OP is complaining about is the use of the term “Senate” without clarifying that it’s in fact the United States Senate. Although it’s pretty clear from context if you know anything about world affairs.

A Canadian public broadcaster should use the term to refer to the Senate of Canada, unless specified otherwise. I don’t think we should have a Senate, but we do, and as long as we do that is The Senate.

Very nice initiative. However it seems that it is a library of links, not code.

Most/all source is hosted on GitHub. It would be cool if this library can host the actual repositories.

I’m proud to be incompatible with Apple

Similar sentiment but for a completely different reason: as a Canadian I love our short summer. Cloudy and dreary summer days don’t give me FOMO when I choose or have to stay indoors instead of spending time outside.

Fuck Doug Ford indeed.

The cars in this rendering are fucking huge

If a doctor treats different patients differently based on country of origin, they should lose their license.

I do for work but not for my self hosting operation, I don’t think it makes sense at least in my case. My recommendation is not to use full disk encryption on a home server, but to encypt specific directories as needed (I use fscrypt on an ext4 file system).

That was a good and informative video. I wonder whether 2037 is realistic for the Ottawa-Montreal.

The accusation that Jarczak bypassed their authorization controls in violation of section 1201 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Why the fuck is the DMCA even a factor when the parties are in Poland and China?

Members of terrorist organizations such as both the IRGC and IDF should be denied entry to Canada regardless of whatever sporting events are held here.

Proportional representation without question

I’ll check out sli.dev, I’ve been using Reveal.js for years now and highly recommend, I love how hugely customizable that is, but one issue for perfectionists is that it’s relatively hard to perfectly convert to a PDF, these days I use DeckTape that does a decent job. I used to be one of those nerds that used LaTeX (Beamer) but fell out of love with it.

Some time ago I tried Abrechnung and it was quite good actually.

Not answering the question of why these bozos get voted on, but one would be remiss not to mention our dumb and unfair first-past-the-post electoral system.

When you run out of local storage…

If you have a single node, external USB storage is 100% fine. Even if you have more machines, if you don’t actually need a massive amount of storage, you can share that external drive as NFS.

My boss’s mom was on the MS St. Louis, and came to Canada eventually many decades later.

And my phone bill is CA$19/month in the most populous city in the country (Public Mobile, I think I have 1 GB a month that I never get remotely close to using up, unlimited calls and texts). I know that by international standards $19 should get me more than 1 GB, but just putting things in perspective.
