He already caved on taxing big tech, so dont hold your breath

They're always the "law and order" types except when it comes to traffic laws

Where i live, municipal roads are maintained by the city. Funded by property taxes.

The vast majority of fuel taxes are collected by the federal gov't and provinces. There is nothing that goes directly to fund roads. This is such a fundamental piece of misinformation by drivers in canada.

Anyway, back to the point about city roads (everything other than highways).

I contribute the same amount to road maintenance as my neighbor. I have no car. Neighbor has a giant SUV that makes a ton of wear and tear on the roads, and contributes to city gridlock.

Do drivers think the $50 they pay for street parking permit comes even CLOSE to the value of the real estate they take up 24/7?

Who do you think is subsidizing who here? I walk and bike "for free"... And drivers frame it as us who are freeloaders?

Despite your support for pedestrians, framing them as getting shit for free is inaccurate (at least in canada. I know the article is about AUS)

The fuck does this have to do with class? A civic is just as likely to kill me as a mercedez when all the drivers on the road these days are speeding and distracted

And yes, fines should be proportional to income, or better yet, value of the vehicle (since many rich people find ways to hide their income)

I dont really care that the average person still uses twitter... What's INFURIATING is that gov't agencies are still using that shit. Why are important pieces of information still being shared on twitter??

So instead of falling for nike marketing, you want to fall for vans and hoka marketing?

More lanes means more cars, which means more safety! Duh!!

We need to protect kids by making sure they dont do dangerous things like walk. If we build the proper infraastructure, this poor child could have been protected inside an SUV, instead of being forced to use two legs.

I have tiny trump hands, so ergonomically not the best controller for me

But i still love my steam controller.

I hope the CAQ steps in and makes some kind of crazy amendment to bill 96 forcing the prison guards to speak french as well

What are the chances of crosswinds again?

Totally accidental. The restaurant just popped out of NOWHERE... And it was wearing headphones and looking at its phone!

I hope the driver is OK!

A schooner IS a sailboat, stupidhead!

One of my machines i've been just upgrading in place since debian 8. No need for new installation

Debian isn't barbaric at all.

Its funny when europeans complain about carbrains. They have no idea what north american car brain looks like

I was told italy was very carbained yet they have trains going everywhere at very high frequencies and i felt very safe walking around everywhere when i visited

I am not suggesting that europeans wait until it gets really bad before complaining about the problem.

I'll give that a try. I actually never figured out scanning on linux

No coverage of Canadian races anywhere. Nothing on youtube. Not even someone's cell phone videos

This country sucks

Brother printers have a good reputation in the linux world. Not sure what the current status is... My printer is over 15 yrs old

Housing for 20 cars is more important than housing for 100 people

Relative to the B2, 4.5B$ seems cheap for a whole nuclear powered aircraft carrier
