Google One gives you an itemized look at what is using your storage space. All of the Google Apps are represented, device backups, and individual apps that are using Drive for storage too. I’d presume it would point you in the right direction, without needing to manually download everything and sift through.

I enjoy how this comment seems to counter what another commenter said about you.

It’s hardly a smear to point of a bias or perspective you hold. I’m not commenting on you, your politics, or worldview. Just pointing out that others should do their own research.

But if that is smearing in your perspective, and that makes me a ‘lib’, alright.

I agree with you. Disagreement in views isn’t a comment about an individual themselves.

That doesn’t change a pattern of posting and comments that are distinctly pro-Russian, pro-China.

Just be aware this poster is often posting pro-Russian, pro-China content. There’s value in other points of view and not being myopic, but if you pay attention to posting trends or look at their history, there is a clear bias and/or agenda.

I think you may be confused as to who you’re responding to. I’m reading some outrage in your response that is directed towards others and their statements, nothing that I’ve written or believe.

There’s no argument to be made. A (good) translator into another language with take into account the intent of the original language and translate it into a comparative version. That can mean changing stories, or idioms that no longer land in the new language.

I’m not the person who made any claim about reading speeds, and I would disagree wholeheartedly with that baseless statement.

Translation isn’t a 1 to 1 process. Every language has difference, idioms, etc. My understanding is that sign language is no different.

The translator makes choices to convey meaning, as well as the literal sense.

Would you rather watch content in your native language, or subtitled? If you read translated content, it’s fine. But it’s not the same as hearing something performed for you. Might be hard to grasp if your language is largely auditory and written, rather than visual and emotive.

Just because sign language is a visual language, does not mean reading is an equivalent. There is a ton of nuance and feeling that goes into communicating through sign language that is not possible through text alone.

Beyond the communication piece, there is respect of an individual who natively speaks a language, and the importance of keeping the language alive.

Oh yes – I have experience with plenty of mental health calls. Just because it’s policy doesn’t mean it gets followed.

It’s also a general policy that a domestic violence call will always receive a visit. Even if there is a call to cancel it. The risk is too high of an abusers influence for the police to not visit and clear the scene.

So it’s good the SIU is looking into what happened here.

Neat technology, but nonsense title. The Stethoscope is rarely used for something as specific as the heartbeat anymore. Listening to various body systems, though? That’s where it finds use.

Are the lungs congested? Confirming what the sinus rhythm is showi?

Computers, for all their advancements are still diagnostic tools that need confirmation. They still give off false positives and miss things.

It was… Once upon a time. Now those who drink coffee largely regard it as brown, burnt water.

Tim Hortons was once a magical place that lives up to the nostalgia fuel marketing that drives the franchise to this day. Every single store has actual bakers on staff who made the pastries, the coffee was genuinely fresh, and it seemed like staff were valued.

Then it got sold to the investment bankers and franchise conglomerates. It’s been min/maxed to death, whittling down every cost to the bare minimum. Things taste like cardboard, and people go because it’s there.

Interestingly enough, when McDonald’s moved into the coffee game, they picked up the bean contract that Tim Hortons held for eons. Tim’s dropped it for cost, and not an insignificant amount of people swapped over to McDonald’s for their coffee.

It’s articles like this that make me glad there are numerous horses in the race.

Autonomous driving is an incredibly complex problem. We have people like Musk who thought they could throw money at the problem and have it solved in a few years, with disastrous results.

We’ve lost Uber, and Cruise is flagging. Both had been touted as examples to follow. Both have had some serious safety problems from moving too quickly and lacking caution.

Behind all of this is Waymo. Plodding along, gathering vast amounts of data and experience and iterating slowly.

I think they, out of all these players, understand the stakes at hand, and the potential profit on the other end. But you have to get it right. It has to be nearly perfect, because people need to trust it, and our emotions are fickle.

They are there in case things go sideways and we need to get Canadians out. You’d want people who are trained to make decisions quickly in a warzone and act independently in the midst of chaos.

NATO is not involved in this matter. This is an Israeli/Middle East conflict.

The headline is the least interesting part of the interview. Basically, everything is so curated and pre-planned, it’s hardly a debate. The politicians are playing to TV.

His thoughts on decision making, national unity, and the state of the country were more interesting to me. Especially when he broke out of a partisan mindset. Particularly when he hints how media has become lazy in searching social media and blowing things up from a relatively minor part of the population, rather than doing journalistic work. When he was PM, those discussions happened in the community bar. If you weren’t present, you missed the discussion entirely.

The idea of the product is really great. The cost is prohibitive for all but major corporate customers.

Add in Google’s track record of killing products… just like this… and why would you invest?

Jamboard needs to be a tablet companion app first, and the hardware can follow. If they’re going to keep coming up with these halo products, then they need to support them for the long term. They also need to be willing to bite the bullet and give these away to lock people into Workspace because it’s unique and no one else does it.

Now it’s another reason to not buy in.

I’m shocked.

We’re in for an interesting few years with Alberta. Anecdotally, some of my friends who live in rural Alberta voted for the UCP because the Alberta NDP allegedly cost them billions in oilfield investment.

When I pointed out that all cars were going to be electric by 2030/35, this was news to them. They had no idea that now was the time to pivot the economy to solar/wind and prepare for the not so distant future.

This is very much a get my friends rich scheme, while the people suffer. There is a precipitous cliff coming for Albertans, and ignorance won’t be an option.

Have you tried not using the milk jug as a battering ram to get into your place? (kidding)

Never had this happen with a jug. Either your milk is bad, or you’re doing something funky with the jug itself when you’re bringing it home.

I really enjoyed Equilibrium (2002). Is it derivative of 1984 and Fahrenheit 451? Absolutely. But so was V for Vendetta.

It’s a B level film that still packs a punch today, particularly in a dystopian era of politics. The message of learning to connect continues to be relevant in a hyper connected, but shallow relational landscape.
