  • Can you explain how what I said was hyperbole? Because it was all factually accurate.

    100,000 hectares of my province burned last week because of drought conditions and unseasonally high temperatures. The resulting smoke caused my sports games to be cancelled. How can facts be hyperbolic?

  • You can export images to tarballs and import them to your local docker daemon if you want.

    Not sure how podman manages local images.


    Idea:

    1. Setup inotifywait on your sources directory and rsync to keep directories in sync, and on change, build and run latest image
    2. Setup inotifywait on your image tarball directory/file and on change import and run latest
    3. Mount your source directory to a docker server image that supports hot reloading.
  • An acquaintance of mine from university started doing ChatGPT therapy and the confirmation bias machine has fooled him into thinking it loves him and he's very special and doesn't need to change anything in his life. It even told him (unemployed and living in his parents basement at 30 with <$2000 in his accounts) he shouldn't get a job if it would "feel restricting to his creative tendencies".

    Truly sad.

  • Joe Rogan. I described him many years ago as "the reality TV equivalent for podcast dudebros" and my (largely well educated, liberal) friend group jumped down my throat for it. Apparently I was being judgemental and shouldn't judge people for their entertainment choices.

    Called my shot.

  • The scary part is even on the surface, a meaningful reduction in housing prices would have pretty rough consequences for us economically. We've spent 40 years building our entire financial system to the point where the majority of the median citizen's net worth is in their home's equity. Seeing any short term devaluation of housing in a significant way would effectively be reducing the median citizens ability to retire.

    Probably the best we can hope for is price stagnation and modest but consistent decreases in housing prices while we decouple our economy from the false growth of real estate.

  • ? This isn't the giving pledge, which is ALSO still active. The Gates Foundation is massively increasing its budget so it won't survive in perpetuity, trying to fill a portion of the gap created by the death of USAID.

    There are many things to be mad about. This is not one of them.

  • He's also very clearly not just a neoliberal central banker - the housing plan calls for a new government agency that actually produces homes which is like, radically not neoliberal "let the market work" type solutioning.

  • Trades in Canada get you a decent number of points in the immigration system for PR applications, especially depending on the province. If you're fine with smaller cities, the prairies are pretty affordable and have easier immigration pathways, and reasonable (but not amazing) job opportunities.

  • try to cancel student debt, Republicans block it

    "Democrats just aren't trying hard enough!"

    Democrats suspend payments while they figure out a way around the Republican blocking measures

    "This is purely performance, if they cared they'd cancel it! Both sides!"

    Republicans get majority control over Executive and both halves of the Legislature, start collecting again

    "Democrats just aren't fighting Trump hard enough!"

    It's amazing how Trump could literally do anything on stage and still get votes but Kamala had a single major flaw with Gaza that was STILL less unhinged than Trump's Gaza positioning and got absolutely torn to shreds. Amazing.
