A typical bike-riding leftist urbanite who also happens to be a hockey-crazy Western Canadian.
A really common issue with sway is that it doesn’t run as a login shell, so none of your .profile or other environment settings get sourced when you login. I think that might be the problem here.
Try closing your sway session, then login to a tty and run sway. If the qt themes work properly then it’s definitely an environment issue.
Points are completely invisible in list view.
That’s not really a fair comparison. Robber barons got to build statues and skyscrapers as testaments to their own vanity, meanwhile recorded music was still in the process of being invented. Even so, I’ll make the point that names like Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, and Tchaikovsky are equally as recognizable.
Fellow Arch user here (btw). It’s exactly the same as building AUR packages. Clone a git repo containing a PKGBUILD, use makepkg to build it, and pacman to install it. The nice thing is you can host a repo of your built packages and install them on other systems really easily. The big downside is that dependency management is not automated, so it will take some time and annoyance to map out what packages you need to build and in what order, if you want a fully source-bootstrapped system.
Flanagan is the one who called the police and deserves all the vitriol he’s getting for it. I think it’s also important to remember that the President is appointed by, and reports to the Board of Governors, who have a similarly ghoulish track record over the past 5 years. The top brass of this institution is all rotten and is only getting worse by the day.
She zeroed in on journalism schools and her thoughts that not enough conservative journalists and commentators have come out of those programs.
That has nothing to do with federal funding and everything to do with the current version of conservatism being completely idiotic.
Right? He can just smugly munch on an apple while thinking of low-iq rhetorical questions to interject with, and that’s the entirety of his politics. That’s all it takes to become champion of the reactionaries.
That’s a massive blunder. There is about 0 chance the Cons are serious about finding “alternative plans” for climate policy. If they were, they wouldn’t be asking the likes of Danielle “blanket ban on renewables” Smith and Doug “let’s just develop the greenbelt” Ford for their ideas. Furthermore, if they think this tax is too much of an imposition on Canadians, then that rules out essentially all other forms of climate action, because the tax is one of the most conservative policies possible.
I’m not saying the carbon tax is perfect by any means, but up to the present, nobody opposed to it has been able to come up with a better idea, or even much of a coherent argument against it. I don’t know what the NDP are gaining from this deal, but I can’t see it being worth all the trust and credibility they had to concede.
The amount of effort spent whining about this tax on a national level is probably more than it would take to solve the damn climate crisis.
People will do just about anything to avoid the tiniest bit of self reflection.
This is a critical juncture for the direction of our housing market, specifically in Edmonton. House prices are relatively sane at the moment, thanks to a combination of staying ahead of the curve on building houses, forward-thinking urban development, and the lack of any real draw for people to want to live here. Calgary’s market is beginning to inflate and it’s only a matter of time before people get priced out and have to settle for Edmonton.
It’s really important that we continue to be forward-thinking and deliberate with new development, so as to keep prices manageable while fostering a healthy urban fabric. I know everyone in the country is dicks out for fast and cheap housing development, but relying on infinite suburban sprawl is a really, really bad idea. Let’s use what we’ve learned from the mistakes of previous generations and do it right this time
Yeah, the even numbered seasons didn’t draw me in quite the same as the odd ones. Still a fantastic show altogether
We’re trying that in Canada right now, and it’s making a lot of people very angry.
Those people are ignorant and wrong, but they’re loud enough that even parties on the left are saying “maybe we should try something else.”
It is really interesting to think about how we built our entire society around gas being insanely cheap. You can buy a gallon of it for $3, which is as much as you would pay for a large cup of coffee in most places, something which we have essentially an infinite supply of.
I’ll probably get bodied by a massive SUV while cycling
Have you ever wondered what that random family living in your house is always so freaked out about? Maybe try going towards the light.
2 things keep landlords from being an infinite money glitch: morality and stupidity. Somehow I doubt these folks are afflicted by the first one.
Time to sell the properties and get a real job, damned leaches.
I tend to think about it as density. Smaller chunks can be more tightly packed together, and are therfore more dense. As long as there is a way for the stuff to flow (i.e. shaking the bag), gravity will pull denser stuff to the bottom.
We probably could, but I think it would be a lot of effort for a relatively small gain. If you’re concerned about saturated fat intake, the most effective thing to do would be to cut back on meat and dairy products, since those are much more potent sources.
I’m no dietician, but I can’t imagine cooking oil makes up a significant portion of saturated fat intake for most people, when you consider the popularity of dairy in all its forms in western cuisine.
EPS is civic jurisdiction, public health is supposedly provincial jurisdiction. Based on every action they’ve ever taken, it’s fair to say the Alberta government doesn’t care whatsoever about public health, and they seem especially contemptuous towards the city of edmonton.
Sending the police is absolutely not the right way to deal with this, I’m not trying to defend that. The key problem is that the city simply doesn’t have the resources to pick up the slack left by the province refusing to do their damned jobs, even though they are the ones being put under enormous pressure by business owners & suburbanites to do something.
They burn it for energy in place of burning coal
No, you would not pay $333k in taxes. You would add $333k to your taxable income for the year, and then pay regular tax rates on your total income.
If you made $500k in capital gains and had no other income that year, then by extremely rough estimation (I’m too lazy to pull out a calculator to get the exact figure) you would only be paying somewhere in the ballpark of $60k in federal taxes, then another $20k-$30k based on what province you live in. All things considered, that’s like a 17% effective rate, which is too damn low if you ask me.
And that’s only on amounts greater than $250k. So anyone this change actually affects is going to be fine. The people complaining about it are straight up lying.
