It’s really not ambiguous. Anyone can fork Firefox, make any changes they want, and release it with different branding. This is the goal of open source.

The term you’re looking for is free software. By making this change Firefox is no longer respecting the freedom of their users. That’s the “F” in FOSS. It’s possible for Firefox to remain open source without being free software.

He’s already working with BC housing, and realistically he’s better off there. Housing is more within the provincial jurisdiction. But yeah I agree with the sentiment...fuck Robertson

Most of the world lives in cities - as high as 80% in Western countries - and that number is growing. You definitely don’t move to the city to get away from people, and it’s not because the housing is cheaper either, so we must conclude that this isn’t a concern for most people.

Another factor here is just how much space suburban sprawl takes up. Look up satellite images of how farmland has been eroded over the past few decades. By maximizing space in cities for people instead of cars, we can preserve our rural green areas, which better accommodates people like you who want to live away from others.

It’s actually starting with the 8 unfortunately. If you’re willing to go used you can probably get an 8a for ~$400.

Off to Guantanamo he goes!

To add to this, I don't think the Carney polls are being factored into the 338 model, because they're "what if" polls, and don't reflect voter intentions today. If Carney wins we will probably see even more of a drop in the following weeks.

This from the guy who wears oversized cowboy hats and undersized t-shirts to cosplay as "rural".

There is lots more detail in the full news release link at the bottom of the page. It's going a bit over my head right now though.

uMatrix isn't maintained anymore, but you can actually do this directly in uBO now!

Ah yes, a sort of cleansing operation.

Of people of a particular ethnicity.

I wonder if there's a term for that...

Not only that, climate change is making it more French. We truly live in the worst timeline

I hadn't heard about using the headers to check for spoofed emails before. Here's more information on how to do it for anyone else who's curious.

The next paragraph after the screenshot is also important:

At the first sitting of the House after an election, the members of each recognized party vote on whether any or all of the sets should apply to their caucuses. The provisions only applying to the caucuses that approve them was another compromise to ensure passage of the Act. The approval of the provisions by the caucuses is binding until Parliament dissolves, after which another vote is held.

The Liberals did not vote to approve the provisions, so this can't be used to remove Trudeau.

If I stabbed someone, the headline would not be "person stabbed by knife". Even if it was an accident caused by me waving it around recklessly in the kitchen or something, that would be a ridiculous headline.

A car lane is dedicated to the through traffic of cars. Similarly a bike lane is dedicated to the through traffic of bikes. If it is truly such a nothing burger to wait one minute, surely you would have no problem stopping on the car lane either and telling drivers to wait. And yet I have never seen a delivery driver attempt this - probably because it is considered socially acceptable for drivers to honk at shout at anyone blocking their way. Not so for cyclists, even though they are the more vulnerable road users.

Perhaps you could also stop at a bus stop and tell the bus driver to wait a minute. Or you could stop in a stranger's driveway while they are attempting to leave. Or hey, stop on a train track. Let me know how that goes for you. It's only a minute, right?

If your city is only designed for drivers, it's no surprise that people will want to drive places. When you remove parking minimums, you also need to prioritize transit and micromobility accessibility, so people are actually incentivized to switch modes. Cities can and are making this shift successfully: here's one example.

You really ought to get on the mathfinder train

They are more privacy focused, but they are not "better" in an unqualified way. Mullvad and Tor especially are not recommendable for daily usage without significant asterisks, they have some features disabled and if you modify their settings at all, add extensions, or even log in to websites, you ruin their anonymity features.

Librewolf is nice, but it's basically just Firefox with Arkenfox pre-applied, and it lacks automatic updates which are important for security. If you have a package manager that's better, but by definition you'll still get updates slower than using Firefox and applying Arkenfox yourself. For instance Firefox 129 released on August 6, Librewolf 129 on August 10.

"Why and how would you falsely confess to anything?"

Like this.

TLDR: cops tortured this poor guy into believing he killed his father while on medication. They threatened to euthanize his dog. He tried to hang himself in the interrogation room. Then they found his father ALIVE. Then they sent him to a psychiatric ward, since he was unstable from the torture THEY inflicted.

It sickens me to see that someone thinks this can't happen.
