Linus himself uses a macbook, I’m sure the mainline kernel has decent support for somewhat recent hardware

Best I got is being in a glider that we had to ditch in a corn field. Hopfully I never have to witness anything worse than that.

until the fentanyl uverdose issue is sorted

Ah yes, make our international relationship dependent on some nebulous, unachievable standard that you just pulled out of your ass. Make us think we’ve been the shitty trade partner and give us the cold shoulder until we prove how much we really want this.

Trump is coming up with excuses after the fact and trying to blame us for his own toxic behaviour. Textbook abuser nonsense.

That sounds like an issue with people, not with the tax.

I love Jon Stewart but I think he’s a little off base with this take. Are we supposed to not call out the overtly fascist stuff the government is doing? Will that get more people to listen the next time we have to call out an overtly fascistic act or will we have to hold our tongue then, as well? How many grannies need to be eaten and impersonated by wolves before we’re allowed to move past the “ooh what sharp teeth you have” crap?

With fascism especially, if you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. The people going through life like everything is fine are implicitly supporting the fascism. I’m not going to stop yelling about how a pack of wolves has taken over the government, just because some people think the word is overused.

I’m willing to let him claim ‘existential threat to the nation’ as an extenuating circumstance.

Given how the hard the postmedia gang is trying to portray this guy as an international elite who looks down his nose at common folk, I wouldn’t put it past the bootlickers over at the Edmonton Journal/Sun to pull a stunt like this.

To be fair though, Carney’s entire campaign thus far has been focused on demonstrating humble roots in a blue-collar town. Well, Laurier Heights aint that humble. Not that a person’s upbringing is necessarily relevant to their politics anyway. But that’s my ultimate point here - none of this matters. The entire discourse is just meaningless idpol noise. Canadian politics are such a joy.

Found Danielle Smith’s lemmy account

I’m thinking more along the lines of we might not be able to trust our government (and therefore military) to do the right thing, independent of who wins the election.

It would be wise to put together some type of organization (reserve militia?) to be prepared for that contingency.

It’s getting to the point where I don’t think dicking around on internet forums is good enough. Every time trump repeat the phrase “51st state” it gets a little more serious. We need to start organizing irl like, yesterday.

There is still the bloc. Érable-flavoured national socialism is infinitely more tolerable than submitting to american imperialism.

Assuming they have the grace to make us all citizens and allow us to vote. I’m not holding my breath.

The sub went to shit practically overnight, and it happened right around the time of the freedumb convoy. I don’t think it’s a coincidence.

I do not understand where they are making a profit

I think you’re overestimating how much money it costs to produce this stuff. Economies of scale and certain other practices in this specific industry allow retailers to sell stuff at a significant markup even when it seems like they’re giving customers a heavy discount.

But even with relatively large markup percentages, the low price point means retailers have to move incredible volumes in order to make enough money to stay open. So they end up using aggressive marketing tactics to get people to come in the door and start impulsively buying stuff.

My intuition is that those shirts are simply from last season and didn’t sell well enough or they’ve gone out of fashion. The store is using it as an opportunity to put a big 80% off sign out front and whip potential customers into a frenzy. Could also be a scheme to recover costs from online returns. But I really doubt there is anything wrong or even different about those shirts.

OP be careful, you’ve inadvertently spoken the sacred incantation and summoned the dreaded political content right into this very thread!

It definitely could be a hardware failure, but if the system still boots fine, it’s probably not that. Based on the symptoms, I think you might have clobbered your PATH variable. This can happen when you do something like PATH=/new/path/ because the variable gets overwritten. You have to remember to preserve the existing value with PATH=$PATH:/new/path/. Don’t worry, this is reversible.

The best thing to do would be to fix or temporarily remove the commands you used to set PATH in whatever profile or .rc file it’s in. You can run whatever text editor you have installed by specifying the path to the executable. I don’t know exactly where vim is on Fedora, but it’s probably something similar to /sbin/vim or /usr/bin/vim. Keep trying locations until you find the right one. Then log out and back in and it should be fixed.

You might also be able to login as root and use the shell normally to fix the problem, depending on which file contains the faulty command. Hopefully this helps.

from a worker’s perspective

This is the opposite of what OP meant. The most exploitative boss is regarded as the best boss by their boss, whose opinion is the only one that matters under capitalism. Exploitation of workers is a necessary part of wealth creation, and landlords have innovated and streamlined the process in order to squeeze their more ethical competition out of business.

In case you’re actually, seriously asking and not just trolling, having privilege and success under capitalism does not disqualify a person from being a leftist. You can’t really criticize a person for participating in a system where if you don’t participate, you starve.

He’s using his influence to organize the working class and advocate for collective action, which is the one tool workers have in the fight against their own exploitation. Even if you don’t like him personally or don’t think he’s part of the working class, he is a very strong ally and has undeniably strengthened the movement.

On the bright side, 99% of Canadians will be immediately priced out of driving a ICE car, so at least we won’t have to worry about that anymore
