Thank you for your insight.
She is probably even more stupid than that comment. She is part of the MAGAt cult and nothing will change her mind.
What are your thoughts on the issue of dust with cultured stone, is it similar for real stone as well?
Well that's a bunch of bullshit that we need to watch for with everything we're told. Critical thinking skills are going to be more important than ever.
That being said, there are plenty of companies taking advantage of the TFW program in Canada, most people think that they do this because they can hire cheaper labour, well that isn't really the case. To me most of the TFW's in fast food are being taken advantage of, as the franchise owner can own the house they rent, dictate what hours they work (not needing to deal with student of parents who might need flexibility for picking up kids), and the constant threat of losing your job and being sent back to wherever they're from.
You cannot put the same restrictions on Canadians, so maybe there is an economically distraught area and plenty of people would work at a fast food restaurant, but the franchise owner would rather a TFW because they have way more control.
Now the TFWs themselves are doing nothing wrong by trying to improve their lives and families situation, but to me it is a new form of slavery where your still stuck at the whims of the owner.
The situation is a mess and like our healthcare industry the government isn't doing much to make it better for Canadians only for corporations.
BTW fuck Tim Hortons, they're as Canadian as McDonalds, not very!
Who would have thought that Iran might save the USA 🙄
Correct, they can print all the money they want, it's fake tied to nothing.
TACO will just say some stupid thing to justify it and it will continue. It has been shown that there are no checks and balances that can be or willing to be put in place.
I didn't read the article but again it's another reminder that the mainstream news isn't going to really report in anything.
ICE budget over by a billion, yeah no shit did you think all these cosplayers were already in the payroll and just hanging out at their bases looking at all the gear they have.
This was the first keyboard I made, all resin printed, hand wired and soldered, wireless with KMK and an 1860 in each side.
It is awesome, it helped my shoulder pain while sitting at my desk.
I then thought I'll build a Corne Choc, ordered PCB's (thankfully extra) and just struggled to build this damned thing. Finally finished and I hate that keyboard, I'd rather type on the laptop keyboard than that.
I like the Dactyl way too much and need to build a portable version with a mouse ball or trackpad or that little joystick thingy. Just need a compact one for travel.
The Dactyls are a nice keyboard once you get touch typing down.

And all the untreated waste that gets dumped into the rivers as well.
Yeah 5 yrs for something that in no way harmed anyone, or took anything from anyone. Are these execs and studios losing money (I mean beyond the ways they set up to make them always lose money so no decent bonuses are paid).
Meanwhile some folks just getting by who wouldn't been able to afford (maybe maybe not) to go see it or buy it (again and again because we changed 1 frame and called it the director's cut, George), they get this crazy sentence.
If you're going to rip people off then you might as well go all the way as there doesn't seem to be any logic to sentences.
Guaranteed that someone in office got paid to make this happen, but that is stating the obvious because the majority of politicians are bought and paid for by business and somehow that is alright.
And I don't agree with shooting the studio execs. You can be way more effective shooting the ones bribing (aka lobbying) and the ones being lobbied (the many blood sucking parasites).
You always hear that violence isn't the answer, well look around because the people saying that don't seem to have an issue with it, they just don't want it to them, but no problem for them to do it to you.
The US is a great example of this, 2nd amendment blah blah blah, the ones who were the loudest have STFU because they only wanted those rights for them, and they now have them and the get to go cosplay CounterStrike for real, lie and conceal their identity (which should be so frigging illegal) and drag you off somewhere and you hope it's only to some private prison but there will be many that just end up disappeared.
What a time to be alive, your role (since we've gotten rid of Kings) is to be a serf to checks notes new Kings called Corporations, cause Bezos needs that fucking boat and wedding in Venice and fuck you you will do as told.
All the dystopian movies are being used as a play book and the citizens just seems to think it will end when the movie does.
I am always amazed at how many people do not understand this. Phone companies right before they started becoming almost "essential", power companies, water/sanitation companies, healthcare "you know excluding eyes and teeth because they have nothing to do with healthcare" that they're pushing to privatize, etc etc. So why does anyone think that privatizing Canada Post will be any different, and sure as shit it will be some stupid Tech company that will just have another means to amass your information to sell.
Now don't get me wrong, there needs to be a change at Canada Post (and the CBC but that's another topic), but privatization is not the answer, and neither is the current way it's going. The person who mentioned how Ireland has adapted their postal service makes a valid point and it should be looked at.
Canadians will not be better served by privatization but some greedy asshole billionaire will, unless it gets bought by the employees.
Yes government organizations are rife with inefficiencies but it would be better to attempt to solve those problems.
I do not get a lot of useful mail from Canada Post, but that doesn't mean it isn't a valuable service for Canadians. There just needs to be less junk mail what a complete waste of resources, and why the hell do companies have the right to force their trash on me. Bet that gets better with privization /s
Came here to say the exact same thing.
It doesn't matter if it is true or not (not just this topic) but if you repeat the lie enough and gaslight the public it becomes true, and if it doesn't so what, what are you going to do about it.
NOTHING that is what they are counting on.
Keep up the protests, the No Kings protest was huge even if MSM is downplaying it.
Or "Might as well do EVIL", what is anybody going to do about it, maybe make some noise but we just pay off TACO and we good.
Melania.
The fucking convict shouldn't have been let into the country.
Canada is better off now that the stain has left, wonder if Trudeau got any in the short time.
Lambs on the run, lambs on the run by the Beatles wasn't quite as popular.
Well there has always been socialism in the US but mainly for business with privatize the profit and socialize the losses.
In reality, who would have thought America would be acting the way it is now, they will nationalize anything they want and no one will stop them. It is not the same world as when 4 years ago, the feelings is coming fast.
There is a tiny little tab on the silver pins, bend that flat and you can pull the wires out and put them in the other connector.
That being said, just cutting and splicing would be the easiest option as this pins can damage easily.
The SCOTUS is useless as it's in the back pocket of the Donvict, and it's America we are talking about, you know they like to replace entire governments, if they don't want the tech leaving it just will not be allowed.
All the Cheeto in charge has to do is say national security risk or Elons now a terrorist blah blah blah, the most powerful nation on earth will do whatever it feels like to protect itself.
Well if it becomes the 51st state I'll not need to worry about it as I would have died trying to defend it, even with its shitty problems.
But point taken send him south
I was recently thinking if it is possible to have a Docker like container on phones for this very reason.
The CFS upgrade kit is showing in stock on the Canadian store site.


I have a K1 Max and mostly it is running great, however I get strange artifacts on mostly only the front side of curved objects.
I have lubed all the rods, and I have a Capricorn PTFE tube from the filament sensor to the hot end. I tried the printable guide for the tube to go into the hot end but it wasn't any better and I thought that was the culprit at first.
I have an extension piece to raise up the top glass.
I'm using Elegoo Rapid PTEG running at 240c and 250mm outerwall speed. This is mainly happening on the front side and anywhere on the build plate. Filament is dry and fed out of the Creality Space dryer.
These items are small netcups but it was also happening on the larger sections that they go in.
Using Orcaslicer and Arachne wall generator.
Any ideas where I need to be focusing my attention on?
Hey all, working on a Corne Choc, and having issues flashing the right half of the board with QMK Toolbox.
I am getting a validating error with:
822 invalid byte in program region, 0 outside region
This is the second controller as I had the same error on the first and assumed I ruined it when I was troubleshooting it and desoldering.
Ordered a new board and same issue.
I've cleared the EEPROM, there are not shorts or bad solder on the headers. This is a completely separate PCB.
Tried using QMK MSYS to reflash ISP (not sure I got that right, don't really understand it).
Get a blue led indicating power, reset button works to put it into bootloader mode, still nothing will flash on it.
Unfortunately on the first go round I had soldered headers to swap but was too tall for me, desoldered the boards and went directly to the PCB, as mentioned this is a new board on a new PCB, did not program prior to soldering.
Hey all, building a corne chocolate with Kailh switches. I ordered SK6812Mini-E RGBs. The issue is that to bottom mount the LEDs it looks as though the ground tab (shorter tapered with notch) is in the wrong corner. It would work if I were mounting them on top, but there is no room for the LED. I'm assuming that I need new LEDs to mount from the bottom.
The PCB is Chocolate v2.1. I am looking to see if anyone can verify that the solder tab on the pcb with the little white box around it needs to match the tapered tab on the LED or the ground pin.
I've had an Ender 3 v2 for a few years now and have had mostly no issues. I've upgraded the hot end to a microswiss direct drive and a dual z setup (twin z steppers on a shared cable).
Recently started having issues with the 4.2.2 board and replaced it with a BTT mini SKR 3 v3.
Since I've put the new board in, I am having troubles getting the bed to level and stay level.
The height profile of the bed is now showing a dip in the centre (which was not there before). When I run a print it seems to be overcompensating for the dip. If I level the bed with the corner screws and don't use the bed mesh then it prints fairly good, but after a few prints the bed goes out of level again.
I can't seem to make any adjustments that help the issue. Yesterday tightened up all the screws (silicon spacers instead of springs). Releveled the bed and had a small dip in the middle and an overall height difference of 0.170 across the bed (normal prior to this was 0.310). Sent a print with bed mesh and mostly came out good.
Went to fire up a new print today and the bed height is showing 0.830 overall difference.
I'm not sure if it is a BL touch issue (the BL touch is a v3.1 and is original with a single 5 wire connector plugged into mini SKR) dual z issue (disconnected 1 in an attempt to level and didn't see much difference, the BTT has two connectors for dual z but run off one stepper driver as I understand it, I am using the y cable for only one stepper motor, while the other motor has its own cable).
I use klipper with a RPi zero 2 w.
I just can't seem to figure out that has been causing the issue since the board swap.
Anyone have some ideas as where to point me?
