The letter argued that Canada’s radio regulations were designed to address the problems created by its vast geography, its “linguistic duality” (English and French), and the fact that space on analog radio is limited, making decisions about what gets broadcast necessary.

Citation needed DiMA. Way to try framing the issue to look in your favour.

Instead of those “issues” we now have locked down apps and opaque algorithms that reduce user control.

To be fair I have found some good stuff through the recommendations, but I also don’t know how often they try to boost certain artists because of back room deals. Companies need regulations to keep them slightly honest.

As far as I know its federal.

But now she’s laid the groundwork to blame the federal government for something she doesn’t have the jurisdiction to deal with in the first place.

Exactly! I remember seeing a video of Jason Kenny throwing out some ridiculous number of jobs it’ll bring to Alberta, when Shaw was already an Alberta based company.

I’ve come to the conclusion that some inefficiencies are actually good for an economy. With multiple companies each has to have a support department and sales department and installation techs and engineers and… It’s not very efficient in that there’s a lot of redundancy, but it’s better for the economy.

Remember during the public consultation when all the politicians were talking about how the merger will create jobs, increase quality, and reduce prices? 🙄

That video!! Yeah, I don’t believe it either. Sort of reminds me of doing Kung Fu as a kid. We’d do public demonstrations and would sometimes ham it up a bit for the audience. I wonder if that’s what’s going on.

Have you practiced push hands? There’s a neat effect I can only describe as sort of being able to bounce off the other person. You can get some decent air with it! I also wonder if there’s a bit of that going on with a lot of exaggeration.

I agree with you about the “weird stuff”. I teach Tai Chi and I’m very careful about the words I use, especially when it comes to describing mechanical forces. I’ll often mention that I don’t mean some notion of “life force” but rather the physical Newtonian force that your body is subject to while performing the movements.

I find Tai Chi to be deceptively complicated with deep physical and psychological components. I have a hard time articulating what it is to others since it’s not really a martial art, and it’s not really meditation, and it’s not just a bunch of movements or calisthenics. But it does have very real effects and I love it!

It sounds like your experience is quite similar to mine and I’m happy you found a good teacher and are enjoying the practice! 😀

Helix also, but aren’t Zed and Helix both modal?

edit: Huh. I just tried out Zed and looks like modal editing is optional.

Looks like jEdit just had a new release! I actually used it as my main editor 15 years ago before I sat down to learn Emacs. I thought it was pretty good back then.

Lapce is a newer one that looks interesting, though I haven’t tried it. The page says modal editing can be toggled.

Are you looking for a job in a particular industry? Maybe someone here has a connection.

Here’s hoping you find success soon!

That’s hardly a reason to get rid of it or replace it. Clearly people are benefitting from it and it’s evident if you look at your tax return. If anything, the fact that people don’t know about the return is a failure in marketing. So sure, there are maybe some improvements to make.

But really, no matter what carbon scheme you put in place, the cons will find a way to complain about it. That’s not a failure of the carbon tax. That’s just how the conservatives operate.

I’d love to see the logic of the cons trying to explain why a foreign agency is spending so much effort to promote their candidate. Clearly Putin is a true Canadian patriot.

The software will likely work, but keep in mind that you’ll have to add VM startup time when you want to use the software. I have occasionally seen software behave strangely in a VM as well, so best to just try it.

Can you share the software you went to use? Maybe there’s a good Linux alternative or someone knows how to get it working in wine.

Opt in to each lesson!!?? So intentionally making it overly complicated and a burden on both teachers and parents.

Whose turn is it next?

Have you tried alvr? It’s not as seamless but it works and has more knobs to configure.

This! Shitting on Trudeau does nothing but give fuel to the cons. The NDP should be out with positive messaging and not participating in the trashy “Fuck Trudeau” rhetoric.

There is a lot of old stuff, especially on the wiki. It’s one of the reasons I abandoned over a decade of config and started using Doom Emacs. I appreciate the curated set of packages with a more consistent interface than I had time to maintain.

As for sln based projects, I’ve never had success with them in Emacs. Heck, even VS Code has been hit and miss for me. Maybe someone knows a good sln package? The one you mentioned might be worth a try.

Don’t worry. The UCP is focussed on the real important issues in schools, like turning teachers into pronoun police. 🙄

Is this the one using the open source kernel module?
