Alberta just kicked Coal years ahead of schedule. Yes, they’re also keeping the rest of the country using and producing oil, but clearly that province is working hard to reduce emissions.

Something is working

When does the government step in, shut down the company, and sell the assets to another firm?

Clearly, this company is irresponsible and cannot follow the law. You don’t have to shut down the operation and have people lose their jobs, but don’t let the company keep operating

Wealthsimple Cash covers most of what one might be looking for in a chequing account.

• 4.5% interest if you deposit your paycheque into it. 3% otherwise I think? It’s quite high
• you can send e-transfers from a Cash account, or you send money using WS Cash to other Cash users. Both workflows are easy

The Cash card also has 0.5% cash back on purchases IIRC and is essentially a prepaid credit card / debit card. I love WS Cash, the only reason I don’t use it more often is that I have an Amex.

I’ll install NixOS on my desktop this weekend just for you 😘

It wasn’t even by Google though, right? This looks like it was by Extinction Rebellion. I can’t imagine the legal team at Google ever approving something like this.

What’s the benefit of this? I don’t understand how that benefits parents or children. Who cares if the kid is a boy or a girl? What if their parents are abusive? School is part of where identity develops, to rob kids of that seems messed up

Is it capitalism to blame or the lack of controls on who can own how many rental properties?

I agree, some proposed solutions would be good, but it’s also an excerpt from a longer work that could include some.

I’ve got a few on my phone:

• one for playing a sound when my phone is charged
• another for starting my Streaks timer when certain reading apps are opened, so that I can track how long I read every day across apps automatically
• when my Sleep schedule begins (when I’m going to bed), I automatically change the screen colour to grey to help prevent being distracted. When I wake up, it turns that off.
• I have one HomePod, and I don’t use it much, but it has a temperature sensor and when that goes over 25C I get a notification so I know to turn on the AC

They’re dumb, but in a fun way. I created my own preroll video with some music and a silly title card. For me it’s a fun way of celebrating the work I put into my setup (again – I use a very dumb video), but also Plex’s preroll logic alludes me. It doesn’t run all the time.

Mostly, however, I have trailers play ahead of my movie. It’s a good way of remembering what else is on my server.

edit: also why, for the love of god, does Plex not pre-buffer the movie during either pre-roll or trailers? It makes no sense!

I’ve been using Kagi for the last year, and when that’s not available, duck duck go or starpage. Kagi is excellent. yes its paid, but imo worth the cost.

How soon is the IPO? New mods on the biggest subreddits would make those subs horrible for a long time while they figure out how to moderate it properly. Even when mods do their regular work, regular folks can get very heated about mod behaviour. Can you imagine that happening across all major subreddits, all at once?
