I really don't like the idea of associating someone as toxic as Elon with someone as pure as Elmo.

TBF, Ontario (and most importantly, Toronto) are going through the biggest transit expansion in all of North America. For those unaware, I'll list some of the projects by transit agency:

• TTC (Toronto local transit) has a new metro (the Ontario Line/eventually Line 3), and 2 new LRT/light-metro lines under construction
• GO (region transit) is undergoing a huge expansion where they're increasing frequency and electrifying the lines, while also doing a bunch of smaller projects to decrease travel times and points of conflict
• Mississauga/Brampton have the Hurontario LRT under construction (also owned by GO/Metrolinx, but local transit, so I separated it)
• Hamilton's LRT is in planning
• ION LRT in Waterloo is planning Stage 2

There are too many bike infrastructure projects to mention, and a lot of new urbanist developments.

At the same time, the provincial government also has a number of projects that are crazy car-centric, like Highway 413, so it's not all good.

I'm also confused why they're parked like that. Land in SF is expensive. Wouldn't you just double and triple park them?

If you want KDE, why not use a KDE-distro? Any time I've installed a different Desktop Environment, I've found it pretty janky.

Your choice is making sure to buy a well supported, timely updated device.

Sure, that choice is currently available, but it wasn't when many of those devices were purchased. For example, I'm currently using a Galaxy S10e which had just about the best support of any Android phone. Now I'm stuck on Android 12. I actually planned on using it with Lineage, but somewhere between my S7 and the S10e, Samsung stopped using Exynos in their Canadian phones, and I didn't realize it. The hardware is still more than good, and as others have pointed out, with Play Service updates, the software isn't really obsolete either, it's just a concern I'm not getting security updates.

I by no means love Kamala Harris, but she's not "just a woman," she was a strong candidate period.

I assume they were drawing the view with hatches up. If the scenario calls for hatches to be closed, there are greater concerns for a pedestrian than getting run over!

I agree this seems low, but this is just a settlement with the city. Hopefully they'll get more from other organizations.

YotoPhone. They also made a version 2 & 3. Unfortunately, Yota went bankrupt.

Isn't the whole point of BitLocker protection from direct access? When a computer is turned off, encryption should keep the data safe. Also when a computer is turned off, basically no remote vector is going to work. AFAIK, when the computer is on, the drive is mounted and BitLocker provides no additional protection over an unencrypted drive.

FTA

The three parties in the new coalition government last week signed agreements that outline policies to roll back the use of Maori language and require all government agencies to primarily use English for their department names and communications.

...but...this is a trial? 🤨
