If you don't like the term settler, it's not even than. Just the acknowledgement that you're with on treaty land, or more likely, on land not yet covered by a treaty. I guess there's the implicit acknowledgement that signing and upholding treaties is a good thing.

Probably, considering the average lifespan of a dementia patient. However, processing capacity could be built quickly* if it were a priority. It's just that the private sector isn't capable of creating or funding that priority on its own, so a competent government is required.

*years rather than decades

Well, there's blackberries. And if you look over there, you'll see...huh, I guess that's covered by blackberries now too.

And as we all know, you have to be a legally recognized authority on a subject to express an opinion about it online.

Fortunately, in my jurisdiction I'm licensed as a RightHandOfKaros-is-wierdologist.

The feature is called QoS, and is available on even the cheapest router. Torrenting can cause network issues, at least on crappy infrastructure, not because of bandwidth usage, but because it opens a lot of connections and can overload a router if it doesn't have enough RAM.

Tracking down and firing someone to cover your corporate iT incompetence is certainly a choice.

It's either over the mountains, or your owl will have to thread the needle between the Azores and Greenland.

I think in US usage it's synonymous with Democrat, but on Lemmy it's used as a slur for anyone to the right of Lenin.

So yeah, tankie bullshit.

H, because I'm in Canada, and the food would be cold before the guy from D got here.

As opposed to the old "only the Great Powers have agency" gambit, which is actual Russian propaganda. Heaven forbid countries other than the US, Russian and China be even conceived of being able to take actions on their own.

There are good reasons to dislike Bambu, but that's just not true. Looking at a Wireshark trace, Bambu Studio connects to three domains: e.bambulab.com (version check), api.bambulab.com (download updated slicer settings and translated error messages), and mqtt.bambulab.com. The last one I can't tell exactly what it's doing, since only the HTTP stuff got decrypted in the proxy.

Maybe the employee downloaded the installer from a sketchy russian hosting site?

The author slightly missed the mark with the discussion around rural areas. As is common when talking about infrastructure, he's conflating rural with remote. Rural areas have excellent electricity coverage, and can easily have enough public chargers to cover needs of the population. With few to no apartment dwellers, rural areas are actually easier to electrify than city.

Remote areas (most of Nunavut in the article), don't have electrical infrastructure. Mostly they don't have people or roads either though. If we have to install the odd diesel powered charger in a remote settlement in order to roll out EVs to the rest of the country, that's still a solid win.

Lead was out of gas for new cars starting in the '70s. It wasn't actually banned in the US until 1996 (1990 in Canada). There were leaded and unleaded pumps all through the '80s.

I'll be impressed if the seeds can germinate and grow 5000 feet back to the surface.

Unless you grew up in the '80s. Jesus, what a shitshow. Though I notice a lot of nostalgia for the '80s from people who aren't old enough to remember it.

Socialism so far has an absolutely terrible track record with environmental protection. Unless you're just talking about being able to directly force societal change in general, in which case you're arguing for eco-flavoured despotism.

Socialism doesn't even promise environmental protection, rather being focused on worker rights and minimizing inequality.

My compost heap is now 80% bears. Did I do it wrong?

Not all ethernet hubs though. There's a couple of segments of RS485, and and a little ethernet to localtalk bridge in the corner. Good luck.

Thus converting a workforce of poorly paid fast food employees into one of highly paid utility workers.

Plutonium actually does combust¹. Even worse, it's pyrophoric². I couldn't easily find kcal/g though.

hmm. I prefer to live by "I've cut it three times and it's still too short"
