We should have a 100% tariff on everything that's made in China, not just EVs
This sort of ridiculousness is why I got two seperate drives (needed the extra space anyways) and choose which one to boot from the mobo EFI menu.
Gaming works pretty damn well as far as I'm concerned, the few that I can't get to work are irrelevant.
I'm keeping Windows around for work... fuck Autodesk and fuck Dassault. So I am trying to get a VM with GPU pass through to work (had it working once but then I screwed it up and now I can't seem to get it working again).
Fucking hell, government willing to do everything except what's actually needed: reduce housing demand, reduce wage suppression, reduce inflation.
Apart from being a terrible idea that almost exclusively targets the middle class (because poor people don't own property and rich people should be diversified enough that it doesn't matter), this does nothing to address what are three of the biggest factors in housing costs:
Housing demand (current population increase rate is not sustainable and it shows in areas other than housing)
Inflation (material and labour costs are up something like 40% or more since 2020)
Wage suppression (very much related to (1))
And the kicker to this is that dealing with the three items above will fix a lot more than just housing, whereas your idea doesn't.
Wrong question. You should be asking if it involved someone with a firearms license. The type of firearm used is irrelevant, despite what the Liberals would like us to believe.
When we have articles about how highschool and university students can't find jobs and construction companies are laying people off, I'd like to know what labour shortages we have outside of healthcare.
name me a Canadian subreddit that ISN'T run by mods that staunchly control the narrative
Not just limited to Canadian subreddits, it's all local subreddits and basically all that are over 10k people. Niche hobby subreddits are basically all that's left that's still ok for actually discussion.
And quite honestly, Lemmy kinda sucks too mostly because the userbase isn't that large and politically leans significantly left of the average IRL (Reddit, other than some select (mostly American-based) subreddits also leans left of average, but not as far as Lemmy) so it's very much an echo chamber.
Because we live in Canada and our design day heating energy requirement is typically far greater than our design day cooling energy requirement. Add in the fact that best pump efficiency falls way off at design day heating (to half or less of design day cooling) and you end up with equipment that may be able to do heating and cooling but is way oversized for cooling, so lots of people opt to save capital (and potentially maintenance) money by relying on gas heat for the coldest days.
Because water heating with heat pumps is currently garbage on the residential scale... the heat pump capacity on residential water heaters is quit low, which is fine for keeping the tank warm but not for dealing with a half decent draw, so they all include full electric capacity which means you need the service size and associated operating costs to go along with it. Commercial heat pump water heating isn't much better, it may get better once CO2 or propane take off as a refrigerant here.
Because more and more buildings are putting in emergency generators, which require either natural gas, propane or fuel oil. One of those is significantly easisr to install and maintain than the other two.
Hang on, your solution is to raise the retirement age at a time when wages are actively being suppressed across multiple sectors because there are too many people competing for the same jobs?
Let's revisit that when applicants for near-minimum wage unskilled labour jobs aren't lining up around the block (virtually and sometimes physically) for a single opening.
Current releases of AutoCAD, Revit and Solidworks.
Huh, as a Linux user who puts up with Proton's unwillingness to support Linux, to me this seems to he saying "Stop paying for Proton until they make Linux clients"
