$35B could have built some nice transit infrastructure. Just saying

Yeah not sure exactly what a union even has to be "sorry" about in regards to a bunch of evil pieces of shit doing terrible things oversees

Last December, the backlog for the regulator (dealing with cases/complains against Air Canada and other airlines) was 18+ months. It likely has only been since then.

They treat people like cattle because they can generally do so without significant consequences.

I think there was also some threats of beheadings more recently

Everyone hates on lawyers, until they need one...

I could see maintenance costs increases being not insignificant over time. Parts/appliances had gone up notably, as has materials and the cost of people to do the work. There's also some issues with receivables which may end up needing to be written off, and deliberate damage over time. Generally, these do need to be accounted for on a going-forward basis.

That said, none of these should have increased nearly so much as the cost of property and overall rents. They should account for a reasonable increase over time, instead what we see is increased to cover the cost of the mortgage on additional rental properties etc

Gagan Nahal, Navinder Gill's lawyer, said his client understands he made a mistake.

Ah, a mistake. Yes, those accidental murders are certainly troublesome aren't they.

This feels like a crappy situation to be in. Governments up the chain have obviously dropped the ball if we're bringing in refugees without actually having solid plans to support them, sponsors etc.

Meanwhile increasing amounts of citizens are suffering from homelessness due to the housing crisis.

If they think that "denying refugees" is going to spur racism and xenophobia, what exactly do they think will happen when citizens are turned away because the shelters are full of refugees the governments didn't adequately plan for?

I'd be interested in doing so. What's the average number of comments and good/crap ratio currently?

Yeah, I could see neck guards becoming required equipment after this. Safety regulations are built on blood

As somebody who has literally been injured with a cardboard tube to the eye (being used as a sword though sans crossguard/handle): just make sure the kids are using swinging motions rather than poking (or are very aware to stay below neck level)

I'm wondering when this will simply be a feature of game engines, along with AI character generation, terrain/map generators, and AI-driven dialog.

I'm really on the fence about it since it really could put extra life into games where it just isn't normally feasible to make all NPC's unique, dialog etc so you end up with a lot of "I took an arrow to the knee" type dialog.

For smaller studios - or independent authors - the ability to generate high quality content with code could also be a real boon.

I'd still rather not see big studios just go with AI instead of real humans for design and acting though. That just leads to cookie-cutter bullshit and games that feel stale

It's not just federation. For at least a good week, those with certain clients would get messages about it being an outdated version. Apparently they're waiting for a patch to fix captcha's before moving up so, fair enough. Content actually continued to load.

However, today opening jerboa crashed it when attempting to contact lemmy.world. Only clearing out disk/cache helped with this, but this of course resulted in all accounts being logged out, and the lemmy.world one being unable to login again (possibly due to the version mismatch, possibly due to other issues).

I'm hoping what things get patched up it'll be good again but for now Lemmy in general is more of a beta, and I fear it'll get worse as Reddit drops the hammer on the API and kills 3rd-party clients

I could see this for ice but I'm thinking more snow and slush, which where can be near bumper-height on cars (not to mention the double-digit degrees below freezing for temperatures).

It's one of those things where it's probably a good idea for bigger cities with nicer weather (or better maintenance of dedicated bike lanes), but in smaller centres a better investment in public transit would make more sense

Slumlords and overpriced rentals can be storage issues though. It can be a nice place, but if you're paying $2k+/mo for a 1b1b that's way too fucking much even if it's in good condition

They could, but that's still going to take a lot to balance the scales. It should be part of an overall plan for housing affordability

I've never used that particular software so I couldn't say. Unless you're sending over the internet this method should be fairly safe though

I prefer against sharing my specific location but western Canada in an area where there can literally be a 60-70°c+ difference between peak winter and summer conditions.

You can also use a file instead of a device if you want to write your image to/from a file

Writing a compressed image at the destination

nc -l 11111 | gzip > /path/to/backup.img.gz

Reading a compressed image at the source and sending uncompressed data over the network (can be cloned directly over drive at the destination, within the original constraints). Please note this will not show a progress status at the source:

zcat /path/to/backup.img.gz | nc 192.168.1.2 11111

Or you could just send the compressed-image data over the network and decompress at the destination (as per the second example}:

dd if=/path/to/backup.img.gz status=progress bs=1M | nc 192.168.1.2 11111

Note also you could use gzip/gunzip to compress the data before it goes over the network, i.e.:

Dest:

nc -l 11111 | gunzip -c | dd of=/dev/sdd status=progress

Source:

dd if=/dev/sda status=progress bs=1M | gzip -c | nc 192.168.1.2 11111
