It takes a long time to lose weight, and it's about 80% diet and 20% exercise. But after a few weeks your heart/breathing should already be better. I'm 55 and wen I started jogging I was without breath and heart in top after 400 yards. Now I can run 2 or 3 miles non stop without too much suffering :)

It is 87% down in Québec, impressive too! Europe can do better!

As long as the 3D shadow of the lamp is ok, there's no problem

I have seen American people who cannot afford iPhone, buy the new one every year because "they don't want cheap"...

Maybe it's the teens from 2006 who dressed like those in 1973?

I am using MX Linux (Debian based) and at install I chose FDE, just with the GUI it's easy to have LUKS+btrfs, nothing special to do. Encryption is done by hardware, your CPU has AES instructions that can encode/decode gigabits/s and is not a bottleneck at all.

i’m middle aged and everyone assumes i’m lonely and depressed, but really i’m just not interested in being around people

I agree, I'm middle aged too and fine like this, enjoy spending time with my partner, our dog, nature, birds watching, etc.

Thanks, I hate this song 🫠

This makes sense.

I had a bulky ATX case with i7-3770k (16GB RAM, 1TB SSD) and 3 years ago I switched to a mini PC, Beelink SER5 with a 5600H, 32GB RAM, 512MB M2. It is incredible, it is like 5"x4" on my desk, super silent, super fast, mini PC are incredible! Can plug 3x 4K display. Now they have pretty good GPU too.

First thing I did was to install MX Linux on it. It is my daily PC, using it for work for 3 years now.

Same thing in Montréal, there is 3000-4000 empty condo, too small and too expensive.

Same as heatpump door-to-door sellers, heat duct cleaning, etc, scammers who charge top $$$ and subcontract for a misery

I live in Montréal and went to Upstate NY maybe 300 times, so I checked this post, but 60 miles from Manhattan lol this is far north I guess for NYC people?

Just commented in another post about Canadians stopped going to the USA. NY border towns like Plattsburgh, small one like Rouses Points, or even big one like Lake George are suffering big times because there is no more Canadians.

Sure it does. I'm living close to the border like millions of Canadians. I went there one or twice a month for 25+ years, little bit of grocery/shopping for stuff we do not have in Canada, went there 300+ times by car. It stopped end of 2024, have not been there this year and doubt I will go. Acquaintances/neighbours are the same, stopped going there.

Thumbnail gave it :)

Yup, and FB feed is horrible since then. Now a shit load of alternative pages are spam publishing all kind of fake news and far-right stuff. Everything is anti-left, bash liberal, bash quebec, bash woke, bash electric cars, etc.

using apt (nala) and deb, forever. Ban flatpak/snap.
