Oh yes, your pay-to-win government duopoly isn’t helping anything, but don’t call it impossible. The Affordable Care Act was a start, and I don’t doubt the right people could make universal healthcare access a real thing in the US.

Oh, I agree it won’t be easy, particularly when taking profits from rich people.

I’ve heard it likened to a house full of asbestos. Knock it all down and there’s likely to be collateral damage, but meticulously taking it apart will take a considerable amount of time. I feel it would be easiest for governments to purchase the insurance companies, then slowly amalgamate so it’s all one network open to everyone.

Also it’s a bit entertaining when someone opposes it because “it’s socialism”. It’s already socialism, you just have middlemen skimming profit off the top while providing little value.

Hey guys, many other countries have figured out that healthcare doesn’t have to be a privatized, for-profit nightmare. Perhaps that’s an option worth exploring.

The asterism gives me big Splinter Cell vibes and I’m definitely OK with that.

I think the context is more that this is first person Amnesty International has named as such, not the first person who could be considered more generally a prisoner of conscience.

The OP article seems to confuse this. The source article from Amnesty is more clear.

Definitely an effective way to make a political ally.

However, it’s possibly intended to be that way. Now he can tell his base that he asked the NDP to join him and they refused.

He is saying, “idk what I saw but maybe it was something,” though. He’s telling of his experience, he doesn’t say “yes, they most definitely exist”, but “I’ve experienced something that was nothing like I’d ever experienced and I know of no animal that could fit the experience I had.” Him being a very experienced bushman brings quite a bit of credibility to that statement.

He’s not challenging people on whether Saskquatch exist or not, he’s challenging whether you think the multitude of people who have had such experiences and are sharing them with others, like him, are all lying about what they’ve experienced, completely fabricating a story of something that just happens to have commonalities with stories from others across borders and generations.

I wouldn’t say he latched on. Maybe the directors commentaries provide more of that background than the actual episode, but he’d often call Todd out if he would say, matter of factly, that something was most definitely Saskquatch, and he didn’t appreciate that sort of thing when trying to make an objective, more investigative film.

At the time, I imagine Todd was one of the more available resources Les had, so at least it was somewhere to start.

Les Stroud’s (aka Survivorman) series on this is quite interesting and I think his stance on it is rather appropriate. He has no proof to confirm or deny the existence of such beings, but goes on to say that to flat out deny their existence is to call each and every one of those with stories to tell, including him, a liar.

I’d recommend anyone interested to check out his Bigfoot series. It’s all available free on youtube.

Here’s an article that’s probably most helpful. Looks like the stated prices are for base models.

An e-bike probably.

In seriousness, you’re not going to get a very valuable answer with such a broad question. They can be quite cheap, but have little range. Elaborating on what you’d want in an EV would help people provide better answers.

Long live Sasktel.

Unfortunately there isn’t really an all-in-one guide. TechnoTim has info on the Pi-hole config side and wildcard certificates, but I think he uses it with traefik.

NPM is pretty straightforward. If you find a site isn’t working, try turning on Web Socket support.

I’d say just search for guides on each part individually:

1. Get all the services installed and up and running
2. Get SSL certificates from Cloudflare for your domain.
3. Set up NPM for the services you want to reverse proxy with your Cloudflare SSL certs (they wont work until the next step is done)
4. Set up pi-hole to be your local DNS (there’s also adblock lists to add) and configure it to send all service(.lan).mydomain.com to the ip of NPM.
5. Set up the Cloudflare tunnel.

I can try to help if you run into any issues.

I’m definitely not a network pro, but it sounds like you’re looking to do something similar to what I have.

I’ve got nginx proxy manager as my reverse proxy with pi-hole for local DNS. All traffic goes through the pi-hole and anything going to mydomain.com has DNS entries pointing to nginx. I’ve set nginx up so service.lan.mydomain.com is for anything local and just service.mydomain.com for anything external with wildcard SSL certs for both (*.domain doesn’t seem to cover *.lan.domain so add certs for both - probably because it’s a sub-subdomain).

The Cloudflare tunnel can then just get directed to service.mydomain.com instead of the IP of the service.

These fools. Taxpayers are going to have to pay both the carbon tax owed plus the legal fees for all this. But, don’t worry, the lawyers are all friends of the politicians, so we must be in good hands.

If only we could have a government with a reasonable level of competence…

Sorry, four of the power to ethernet plugs. You put one near your router to essentially supply internet to your house’s electrical circuits, then distribute the others where you need them, such as office, living room if you want to connect a TV or console, etc.

I had a set of four for getting ethernet around the few places I rented. There was maybe the odd quality decrease when there was a lot of electrical load, but they worked great otherwise.

Oh man, I remember a Philips mp3 player I had for the longest time as a kid. You could hear the little clicks of the hard drive. Lost it on a hike, unfortunately.

I was driving in this area on Thursday. Definitely wouldn’t recommend anything other than a truck or Subaru. Had a full inch of mud in the wheels when I got home.

And of course, as soon as you cross the MB border, nice, reasonably well maintained pavement.

Jeremy Harrison is little more than a middleschool bully, and his antics continually demonstrate that, despite him being a 46 year old man. One of my favourite is when Donna Harpauer, Finance Minister, blamed high gas prices on the Saskatchewan NDP in 2023 (yeah, try to figure that one out), and ol Jer was sitting right behind her cheering so fervently he might as well had been in a skirt waving pom poms around.

I think it’d be a stretch to call some of those provincial ‘health insurance’ programs functional in several aspects.

The $34.95/hr average is stated as the average for permanent positions. I doubt many of the service industry jobs are permanent positions.

Even just rent one for a day. They’re so simple and just work.

The underlying plot of this article is rather obnoxious. This Smith guy’s 2016 Hyundai hybrid broke and the dealer gave him a $15k quote to fix it, which was then resolved by Hyundai corporate. The headline statement is one small paragraph, and irrelevant to this random story.

To discuss the headline, though, I think it all stems from misinformation more than anything. I have an EV in the charging desert of north east Saskatchewan. It’s a fantastic car and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy one again. Yes, you do have to plan ahead a bit if you’re going longer distances, but the slight inconvenience is well worth the savings in fuel. Winter range can be reduced by around 50% at -30, but again, you plan around that. ICE vehicles don’t perform well at those temperatures either.

Even then, the trips the vast majority of people make are well within typical EV ranges and there are often several charging option wherever the vehicle is parked.

I recently went this route after dabbling with other options. I had a wireguard VPN through my Unifi router, with rules to limit access to only the resources I wanted to share, but it can be a struggle for non savvy users, and even more so if they want to use Jellyfin on their TV. Tried Twingate too and would recommend if it fits your usecase, but Cloudflare Tunnels were more applicable to me.

About $11M USD.

And those professionals often aren’t getting the majority of their income from capital gains.

This is mostly my reasoning too. I’ve got a bit more juice than a NUC, but I prefer the way resources are managed with an LXC for the certain apps that I run. I still have VMs for other things, like HAOS and a BlueIris NVR. It’s only a local homelab with no external users so avoiding additional complexity is often in my best interest.

Why would one prefer a VM over an LXC for Docker?

I might have found the issue, see updates above. I have a separate Docker LXC that was behaving normally too, so was good to cross-check with that.

Docker is installed on a Debian container with Proxmox as the hypervisor. I believe as far as Docker knows, it’s just running on normal Debian. The Debian LXC has its own local ip.

I’ll take a look at those resources though, thanks.

Many local libraries provide access to this incredible resource too. Check yours to see.

I’d say that’s kind of expected in an industry that’s created essentially out of nothing. It was a weed rush, some are winners, but many are losers. Sure there’s regulatory burden, but that was known going into it.

I feel like weed shops will soon go the way of the many frozen yogurt shops of a decade ago.

I feel like that’s the opposite of what we want. Perhaps a storefront where one could choose what they want from different providers for a reasonable price would be good, but consolidation leads to *opolies, which are never good for consumers.

It’s not OP’s website. Looks like there’s a contact form on the site though.

My comment was more on the wanton discount of expert opinion, not of the particular thoughts raised in this article. Broadly discounting expert opinion with preference to the common person, as this “spokesperson” has, is an incredibly dangerous paradigm to push.

“Common sense Conservatives will listen to the common sense of the common people, not Justin Trudeau’s so-called ‘experts,’” a spokesperson for Poilievre told the Canadian Press.

Translation: we, Conservatives, prefer to ignore any information, no matter how well researched or sourced, that goes against our own opinion, which in all cases, is simply the opposite opinion of the governing party. In fact, we prefer the opinion of those with much to gain from us opposing these opinions, such as oil and gas companies, Christian groups, and really any person likely to receive personal monetary gain which can then be shared with us.

With fugitive emissions, methane is worse than coal. A coal leak just turns into a regular ol rock on the side of the railway. A methane leak is very hard to detect and releases much more GHG potential than even the burning of that coal.

I’m not advocating for coal, just saying they’re both shit and we really shouldn’t even be having this conversation.

Anyone installing a heat pump in cold climates will often have a backup heat source. If you don’t have access to natural gas, heat pumps can save considerable amounts of energy compared to only resistive heat.

Likely very few if they’re not from Saskatchewan.

A bunnyhug is a hoodie, for those wonderieg.
