They could have just called it the Rogers Skydome, and nobody would have cared. I'm more mad about that than I am with the orange pedo having another tantrum with Lake Ontario.
It's all just an attempted distraction from the Republicans' ruinous economic and social policy. And hoping we forget about the Epstein files. Release the full Epstein files, with only victims images and PIA redacted.
But Rogers was just being senselessly stupid. They weren't trying to cover up being pedophiles, afaik, so why did they do it?
Plus everybody is like 'it's the same thing, no learning curve' but then I start reading up on it and uhoh, learning curves :p
Exactly this. I tried podman, as a "container" newb, based on the idea that it's a (better) drop-in replacement for docker, but it didn't work. My quick attempts to resolve it went nowhere, and there were no instructions for the container I was trying to spin up for podman to explain the differences required.
So, in frustration, I decided to try docker and it just worked.
Good enough for me, for now. I still prefer the idea of not having a daemon running with root privileges, so I'll likely move over to podman eventually, but I only have so much time to waste tinkering with my setup. And if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I can't take this article seriously since it confuses debt and deficit. That's an egregious error in the context of saying deficits are over 100% of GDP. That's literally impossible.
Not sure if this was overuse of AI or an ill-informed author, but, either way, it erodes their credibility to the point I stopped reading. If I caught those errors in the easy stuff, then I don't want to read other errors that I might not identify in the more technical argument the author was leading into.
Yeah, right? Like, that deal sounds like a no-brainer, to me.
Sure, the game could go viral and explode and make money hand over fist, and he's missing out on that potential... But it probably won't. And $650K is a lot of money, and he doesn't need to keep grinding for years to make it happen.
With a paid off house, it's easy to stay afloat just coasting until he finds something new that excites him.
This was my thought, too, especially with how stable Linux traffic is relative to other OSes.
It might just mean that more people are web scraping, and that web scraping is easier/cheaper on Linux.
The Steam numbers are more interesting to me, as a measure of consumer usage, since they should mostly represent people actually using their computer.
PornHUB puts out annual usage stats, too, but idk if they include OS. (When I used Reddit, their stats would come up on dataisbeautiful frequently enough to come to mind years laterâthey had some interesting stats, like average visit duration and that the most Republican states were the most likely to search for gay and incest porn, but I digress.). Would bots make up a high volume of traffic for them? I imagine not, since there's little economic value in scraping it (to train LLMs, in particular â I think it would poison the training data rather dramatically!)
A 100% income tax means there's no incentive to remove profits from a business beyond that income, since you can't spend any of it, so it will just encourage increased accounting trickery to justify "business expenses" for things like purchasing private islands, sports cars, and luxury vacations.
80% is high enough; for every $10 million they withdraw for personal spending, they keep 2, and the other $8 million would go to pay for the services requested to run the rest of the country that enables them to produce their wealth. (Including all their employees and customers.)
Then we still benefit from the efficiencies inherent in the profit motive while having the ultra wealthy pay their fair share.
... after trade tensions, tariffs and President Trump's repeated "51st state" comments led many Canadians to vacation elsewhere.
How is it that articles are still failing to mention ICE secret police snatching people off the streets as a reason why Canadians are avoiding crossing the border? Am I alone in considering arbitrary, indefinite imprisonment in inhumane conditions as something worth avoiding?
Surprisingly, that was not the conclusion of the data.
According to the article, the decrease in spending on American tourism was equal to the increase in spending on other international tourism. I thought we were "Elbows Up" traveling more in Canada, but apparently not?
I'm not sure why there's hate for Crealityâmy Hi/CFS combo has been great for me, with only occasional hiccups (in thousands of hours of print time), mostly from my inexperience (like not realizing my filament was brittle because it wasn't dry...)
I'm really looking forward to seeing how the K3 with KliTek pans out. Allowing for zero-purge multi-material printing with TPU, including multi-hardness printing, in particular. Being able to print soft parts with TPU with (cheap) supports from a material TPU didn't bond well with is super exciting, like slippers with durable 95A soles and softer 80A cushioning.
And, AFAIK, there's no printer right now that allows for multi-material printing with different hardness TPU.
Steam is a privately owned corporation that has no need to justify their extraction of maximum profits to shareholders. There's no reason to expect them to risk destroying their incredibly profitable business to chase short-term profits.
When you're vibe coding, you need to narrate long prompts, including things like "And remember not to hallucinate or make any errors." All that is a lot faster to say than type.
Clearly, you're not vibe coding, and your job will be (checks notes) automated away by someone with a #grindset.
I don't think that's a problem, but I suppose it depends on your goals. Facial recognition in low-light conditions is already hard enough of a problem that they, presumably, are not building IR-light-clothing detection into their algorithms. And if IR-blasting clothing becomes commonplace enough that they start working on it, then it's also no longer distinctive. So, if the goal is to defeat passive surveillance of your movements, this should be highly effective.
If a human reviews the footage, then none of this likely matters anyway, since they'll be able to identify other identifying features about youâbut that's a scalability problem. You'd need to have done something very "interesting" to be worth investing the time into tracking across hundreds of video feeds through a surveillance network.
If your goal is to get away with a crime or actively resist detection while protesting, then this is (obviously) a bad idea to wear this. You should instead choose something as non-descript as possible, like all black, long sleeves, gloves, face mask, and tinted goggles. But you can't just walk around in public like that, in general.
The article is very light on any technical details, so it's hard to tell if this is a big deal, someone misunderstanding the hypervisor method that's exploded this year, or just click bait. I'm going to assume click bait.
Edit: the Lemmy.world post had a comment that explains this better than the article:
...
An important point though: hypervisor cracks were available exclusively for Windows.
Or at least that was the case until the âLinux breakthroughâ was revealed yesterday, which gives Linux the ability to run Hypervisor cracks, and with modern CPUs, you can run the hypervisor cracks without even using a hypervisor.
Support for Linux has to be implemented in the cracks themselves too, though I did read that DenuvOwO (de facto THE hypervisor cracking team) is backporting support to all previous releases :D.
Of course nothing beats actual cracks but then again hypervisor cracks werenât support to replace them, theyâre supposed to ruin denuvoâs reputation by making games pirateable on day 1 of releasing. This will have a bigger effect now that the cracks are with tinkerers (Linux users) who wouldnât mind a little setting-up to play their games.
Right... but maybe the 5% is warranted, because of the ongoing collapse of American hegemony?
We need Middle Powers to have leverage, and part of that will depend on being able to collectively stand up to military aggression from our "allies", let alone rivals.
In other words, what is the likelihood that Canada faces an existential crisis due to having insufficient investment in our military, and how much investment is required to mitigate that risk? What's the cost-benefit analysis?
I don't pretend to know enough to have an answer, but there are real concerns, not just posturing to placate a petulant would-be dictator.

Seems fine, for what it offers. It's only 1 layer that slows down that dramatically, then it should be back to regular printing speeds.
You wouldn't want to do lots of huge overhangs, still, but this method will definitely have some really cool applications.

I can't take this article seriously since it confuses debt and deficit. That's an egregious error in the context of saying deficits are over 100% of GDP. That's literally impossible.
It also completely ignored the $19+ trillion in commercial bank deposits nor explained how $19 trillion can be deposited with only $2½ trillion dollars. Or the total size of $29+ trillion in federal money market and bond instruments that are largely cash equivalent. The scale of those is rather critical to contextualizing the scale of USD-backed global financial systems.
Not sure if this was overuse of AI or an ill-informed author, but, either way, it erodes their credibility to the point I stopped reading.

Who wouldn't take that deal?
Even without a tire over them, they weigh more than the heaviest tire on the market. So, yeah. Exactly.

Right? Like, what's the market for a 4GB video card in 2026+? 720p gamers?

It only takes a few moments to scan the diffs in a pkgbuild. It's not a big ask.
Some Android devices have a dedicated hardware wipe physical button, too, like the upcoming Click Communicator, iirc.
