And what does that mean, you fill a document with feminist phrases and ctrl+v over every word 'woman' the word 'man'? That is... wow, that is incredibly academic. I'm actually hit-stunned by how smart that is.

If that’s the best you can come up with, then you are just as bad as Ben Shapiro.

The First Nations combated scurvy by making a tea from pine tree needles.

Just an FYI for anyone who is also food poor and at risk.

At least in Western Canada, dumpster diving has become impossible: all major chains now have fully enclosed dumpsters that attach to the side of the building, and can only be accessed from inside the building. Plus, most of these are compactor units, which crush the contents down into the dumpster portion that gets hauled away.

it became tiresome to me after dealing with systems carrying lots of technical debts from past developers. I got burnout in the past, depression came from anxiety which, in turn, came from that very burnout.

I have much the same problem, however,

it became tiresome to me after dealing with systems carrying lots of technical debts from past developers.

This could be your opportunity to build a SAAS product the way you want, such that you can fully minimize that technical debt. I don’t know about you, but I get energized by the idea of doing things “the right way”, and in ways that benefit my own workflows and ideals.

Furthermore, for IT positions, professional networking is a must, something that, as an introvert, I didn't really build. So when I apply for a job vacancy, I'm just another "anybody" in the eyes of that business.

This is where building your own product allows you to bypass all this. Granted, once you crank out your absolute Minimum Viable Product and throw it against the wall to see if it’ll stick long enough for world+dog to begin eating it, you will need to start marketing the product, which - at that stage - is simply yeeting it at the appropriate community and employing Observability to see how they use the product.

There are a ton of details that do matter very much, but a lot of SAAS products can be bootstrapped through the MVC stage on a literal shoestring. Like, even on your own iron if you’re willing to host at home on a strong symmetrical SOHO (business-class) fibre Internet connection.

Okay: What. Da. FUQ??

The government has an obligation to take care of all of it’s citizens, First Nations or not.

Ben Shapiro is a moron. And so is pretty much anyone who has ever punted the “alpha male” narrative.

What I do, exclusively, is listen to what “feminists” say, and compare it to not only reality, but also how any flip-side examples for men are perceived. From there it is clear that the ideology is one of gender supremacy. There is no other possible interpretation, because there is no equality in their objectives. Any “benefits” that men accrue from feminism are purely by happenstance and lucky accident, but the foundation and exclusive intent of any one incident has always been female-first and almost always to the intentional exclusion of men.

On the one hand, my condolences.

On the other hand, congrats at getting free.

On the gripping hand, you have the ability to pull others, who are still capable of being saved, from that cray-cray. You can leverage what you used yourself to help others.

IT programming

As in, software development? Because if you see any kind of needs gap out there, you have the opportunity to fill that gap. It may take some time, but plenty of people make a modest living out of personally-constructed SAAS.

Wow. When a church tells the GOP to fark off, that’s gotta be a bad situation. Most churches are deep into the ChristoFascist end of the political spectrum, so McCormick must have pissed off Rev. Edward’s something bad.

but if you think the numbers are comparable you're living in a fantasy land.

The CDC - the largest medical org on the f**king planet - has clearly established that women rape men as frequently as men rape women:

And now the real surprise: when asked about experiences in the last 12 months, men reported being “made to penetrate”—either by physical force or due to intoxication—at virtually the same rates as women reported rape (both 1.1 percent in 2010, and 1.7 and 1.6 respectively in 2011).

In other words, if being made to penetrate someone was counted as rape—and why shouldn’t it be?—then the headlines could have focused on a truly sensational CDC finding: that women rape men as often as men rape women.

We’re not the ones living in fantasy land -- you are, by either ignorance or malice. Which is your source of gender bigotry and misandry?

Then maybe you should understand that women rape men as frequently as men rape women:

In other words, if being made to penetrate someone was counted as rape—and why shouldn’t it be?—then the headlines could have focused on a truly sensational CDC finding: that women rape men as often as men rape women.

Now consider: how many women do you see convicted and jailed for rape?

crickets

That’s the sound of massive gender bigotry in play, right there - 50% of all cross-gender rapists getting away Scott-free, purely by virtue of their gender.

And yet, what no-one wants to face is the fact that women rape men as frequently as men rape women:

I mean, yes - let’s lock up convicted rapists. But if 50%of cross-gender rapists are women yet almost 100% of convicted rapists are men, there’s some seriously weapons-grade gender bigotry at play, there.

A legal system that is truly based on equality should see about a 50/50 split of male/female rapists convicted, and for largely equal time served as well.

There is no evil like conservative ChristoFascist ideology.

I would talk to a lawyer about a message on the outside of the library, something like

“by stepping onto this property and examining the contents of this library, you and anyone you communicate the contents of this library to will automatically and irrevocably indemnify and hold blameless the maintainers of this library.”

I still don’t properly grok Selinux at a fundamental and instinctual level. I understand the need for it, and I work with it to the best of my ability, but I wish there was a resource that could explain it from several different positions.

Irony: my main Linux workstation is OpenSuse

I have a BackBlaze B2 cloud cold storage where I back up everything from my entire family. If they have a computer, I back it up, fully encrypted, via Duplicati. Not the best option for a machine-side client, but I like it and it’s been reliable for me.

As for on-site storage, I have a pair of 4U rack mount cases with 24 hot swap bays in the front. Once I have my server room configured and cooling correctly, it will be the local backup site for everything in-house, and likely serving other duties as well.

Because the average person doesn't have any real time to think deeply about politics.

Because the economic elites have engineered it that way.

They flooded the workplace with double the workers (both men and women), thereby depressing wages and forcing both parents to become wage earners to survive. Then, with both parents working outside the house, childcare and chores sucked up all available free time, and even more household costs went towards outside help (daycares, etc.).

Then they began a tradition of kicking children out of the house when they became adults, thereby putting strain on infrastructure and increasing the demand for housing.

Then they began a push for higher education, thereby saddling young adults with ridiculous amounts of debt at the point of their lives when they could least afford to shoulder said debt.

All this makes us extremely time poor and resource poor, such that we cannot afford the head space to consider anything beyond where we put the next step or two that we make. As a society, the common man becomes far too busy just treading water to be concerned about in which direction they should swim.

As such, most people take massive amounts of cognitive shortcuts, relying far too much on things spoon-fed to them from the very news sources that should be unbiased and impartial, but which are nearly always owned by the Parasite Class, which favour deeply regressive conservative policies that benefit only themselves at the expense of the common person.

And most people don’t think deeply not because they cannot be bothered to think for themselves, but rather because they have far too much on their plate to afford to do so. They quite literally would mentally burn out if they were to do so.

Which is why the conservative mandate is to defund education and keep people as ignorant as possible.

I mean, to keep the common man as ignorant as possible -- the children of the elites will always go to prohibitively expensive Montessori schools, which will better prepare them for critical thinking and bullshit detection so that they may better rule over and parasitize off the common man.

What if I make $25k a year but have aspirations to make $1M a year? I'm torn!

You say that in jest, but do what the boomers did - promote social services (unions, etc.) until you get wealthy enough to start parasitizing off of them by privatizing or eliminating them.

Chances are you’ll never reach $1M/yr, but socialist policies will make it far easier for you to do so.

How to vote:

• If you make more than $1M/yr, especially if it is extracted from the labour of others, conservatism might be your best bet.
• if you make less than $1M/yr, especially if your paycheques are signed by someone else and your wage is not forcibly extracted from the labour of others, then NDP will be the party that will benefit you the most.
