'Trudeau will give more and more to incompetent, greedy, money-hungry municipal politicians. I will cut the bureaucracy, and axe the tax,' Poilievre said in Aurora Friday

Oh, but he HAS said what it means.
And his actions since day one have backed this up.
I mean, Trudeau is newly single and still a pretty solid dish.
Carney though, looks like me. Don't understand that one.
Every election seems to break a new advance voting record. I think that the only thing really happening is that advance voting is becoming more mainstream. When I was a kid, it was something done by people about to go on holidays or being impossibly unavailable on election day. Now, it's pretty common among the general populace, even if they can make it out on election day.
Trump.
FIFA is such scum.
I wanted to buy tickets, so I signed up to their stupid list. I get constant invitations to buy packages of random shit that - IF I collect an entire set, at the cost of several thousand dollars - could maybe give me an opportunity to buy tickets.
Fuckers.
Even if he did all that, getting into California would still require going through the feds first.

A picture of LaGrange and Smith answers the question quite well.
Yep. Fat fingers typing on a phone while on a bus on the highway = one more typo than I caught. :-)

I caan't imagine where in the world you are that this could possibly be an appropriate comment for the prof to make.
It's not his place to tell you what to weat. This is no more acceptabke than if he told a female student that her skirt was too short, or for that matter, too long.
Wear what you want.
Let's be clear. This is detention of "undesirables" without due process.
Just like what Trump is doing.
It's unconstitutional. It's illegal. It's inhumane, unjustifiable, sadistic, and most of all it's INCREDIBLY evil.
I read this as "Sea Bass game" at first.
Honestly, I don't know.
So thanks for that, but...that's not really the point.
We're not trying to hurt Trump and MAGA. We're not trying to either destroy the US or get it back to where we were a year ago.
Trump - and more to the point, his re-election - was the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. Canada finally has said "enough is enough."
We're not doing this anymore. We're not tying our country's fate to ANY other nation - not the US, not England, not China or Eritrea.
Canada cannot afford to sacrifice ourselves for the sake of convenience and harmony.
Canada has one direction: Forward. We are reclaiming our sovereignty, our culture, and our place as a progressive leader in the modern world.
Only because he's a lying shitbag.

Morrowind.
Ages ago I got a new video card that came with bundled games, including the slightly-old Morrowind.
That was the intro for me to deep RPGs, and I fell hard.
A few weeks ago I decided to revisit it, and went with Open-MW and a vanilla experience.
So awesome.

Dear Alberta: Buy American booze this weekend!
Seriously, do it. Go get your Jack (bleah), your Aviation gin, your California wines, whatever you want.
Every store with those items on the shelf has already bought the products from AGLC. They can't ship it back, and they can't recover their costs except through sales.
The AGLC is no longer buying booze from the US, which means every bottle available is money already sunk - and for small stores, it can be a lot of money.
So go to your local shop, buy what you want, and tell the owner that you know it's not on them to throw away their purchased inventory.
Looking for replacement keycaps
So I've got a Ducky One RGB Tenkeyless keyboard, and the doubleshot caps are pretty much worn out. (the homing bars on F and J are undetectable by feel).
I'm looking for a pudding version of the same. Namely:
As an added bonus, I'd like to replace the Windows key with something fun - maybe Tux the penguin or Lemmy the lemming, a motorcycle, something other than "We are the Microsoft Borg."
Best I can find so far is the enormous (145 key?!) set from Ducky, which is out of stock everywhere.
I bought a new vacuum cleaner this weekend
We had some Amazon gift cards to use up before my Prime membership expires, so we got a Dyson cordless stick vacuum. The amount of dirt it picked up was both horrific and satisfying.
"Buy Canadian" isn't so cut and dried
In response to the US going off the rails, I'm seeing lots of push to buy Canadian products as much as possible and I love it.
But it's never that simple, is it?
Easiest case: You can buy leather bags and wallets from Adrian Klis. These are made in Canada, by a Canadian company, from Canadian materials (Buffalo hide leather).
Unfortunately, neither manufacturing or ownership are that straightforward most of the time.
A&W Canada is actualky Canadian
Many people think of A&W as an American chain, but they have been separate companies for many decades. More to the point, they have been an actual Canadian company since 1995.

Network time - Still worth considering an Asus RT-AC88u Pro?
So I currently have an Asus RT-AC86U that is working fine, but bogging down under load, and also is EOL.
We've got three people and about 15 devices, give or take. Our internet service is currently 300Mb cable.
The AX88U Pro is currently on a very good sale - $220CDN. I figure my options are that, the BE86U at $370, or the BE88U at $500.
Five hundred bucks is out of my justifiable price range. Spending less (a lot!) on the AX router would be nice, but the longevity (and support lifespan) of the BE86 has some appeal too.
I'm also not married to Asus, although they've been consistently excellent for me.
What do y'all think? Any educated guesses on when Asus is going to EOL the AX lineup?
Convicted Jan. 6 rioter arrested in Whistler, B.C., 4 years after U.S. Capitol was stormed
A man convicted and sentenced to nine months in jail for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol was arrested in Whistler, B.C., four years to the day after the riot.
Rather than reporting to jail in the U.S., Antony Vo headed north to seek asylum in Canada.
He told CBC News last week that he was hoping U.S. president-elect Donald Trump would pardon him.

When adding disks to a Synology SHR volume, is the data re-laid out?
Anyone an expert in Synology here?
Synology's Hybrid Raid (SHR) is a funky little system, especially since it's built on standard Linux tools.
What I'm wondering though, is how data is distributed when you change the disks in the system.
Imagine I have 2x1TB drives and 2x4TB drives in a system.
Now let's say I replace those two 1TB drives with 4TBs (safely, preserving data, etc.), and tell SHR to expand to use the new drives. I can see a number of scenarios from this point:
Fallout London - I just can't anymore
This game...
I love it. I love how true it is to the (Bethesda, et al) spirit of the Fallout series. I love the humour, the clever touches, the obvious love with which it was crafted.
But holy fuck, the bugs. The bugs, the bugs, the fucking quest-breaking BUGS!!!
Also, the "FO4 too easy? We're going to make this incomprehensible" attitude.
Let's consider companions. First companion was Churchill, followed shortly by Archie then Arthur. I was travelling with Arthur when I finished Archie's questline, and then shortly after, I finished Arthur's as well. Then Arthur swapped his massive gun for melee, so I dumped him.
Unfortunately, I couldn't re-join with Archie. After every interaction, he goes into an unclickable merchant menu, and you can't get him to join you no matter what.
Back to Arthur then. I sent him to Biggs Airport, and...he's not there! FUCK!
Kiera? As soon as I didn't sign on, she went to a location I can't yet reach!
Fine, I'll solo it. Except that the Roundels are

Body shop recommendations
Hey Calgary!
The kid got our car banged up, and we're getting it fixed under insurance.
Looking for recommendations of body shops in town, preferably ones who work directly with insurance companies.
Of the ones proposed by my insurance co., CSN Lou's and ProColor Collision are looking hopeful. Any thoughts?

Question about Maori icons
Hey all.
Canadian here. A number of years ago my family visited New Zealand, and while falling in love with the country and the culture, I also discovered the Hei Matau - the Maori fish hook.
This has haunted me ever since, and I want to carve one for myself. However, we've spent the last decade starting to understand the relationship between European settlers and the North American Indigenous people.
So what I do in my basement with carving tools is my own business, but I ask honestly if wearing a Hei Matau in public is considered respectful or appropriation. And also if the material matters in this context. (It would likely be from a tagua nut - "vegetable ivory" - although it's possible I could get some whale bone from my coastal friends.)
