Fiy, the Mozilla Foundation is one of the highest rates charities on Charity Navigator.

They don't always make the best choices as far as product direction, but as a charity, they are quite respectable.

Can't do a bad job if you don't even know what the job is! /s

FWIW, he is facing trial. But every step of this case has been mishandled by the prosecution.

If the justice system is to be trusted, then this case should be dismissed, as it seems clear that he isn't getting a fair trial.

I thought the invasion would end 80 days ago. Trump said so. 🤭🤡🤡🤡

It would be nice if people took the power of voting more seriously.

All of that makes me sad, tbh.

Yes, believing a lie (or hundreds of them) could explain it. But when you're talking about trump, especially on a second term, you can't claim ignorance!

But as a Canadian of immigrants, I feel like we should be lifting each other up, not "shutting the door" behind us (great description, btw!).

the position is just to get a politician into power not to represent actual people.

Based when we're talking about the Conservative party, eh? 🤭

a significant number of NDP supporters - probably “working class” supporters - seemed to flip to the Conservatives, and not the Liberals.

Yes, and this is incredibly troubling.

There were many surprising conservative votes in the GTA (resulting in quite a few flipped seats). What I don't understand, is how do municipalities with large immigrant populations, vote for a party of anti-immigrants?

We saw in the States many Latinos voting for Trump. What are you thinking at that point??

Voters rejected PP.

It seems like this other Conservative isn't confident in their own ability to act as an MP. And it doesn't look good to give your seat up to a loser.

Many reasons, but people who lack critical thinking skills will generally only need one other person to agree with them, for confirmation bias to entrench itself.

But the situation is even worse than that, because these days, the "other person" doesn't even have to be real. A bot spreading disinformation can have the same effect as a person spouting nonsense.

And social media gives the tiniest minority the appearance of having a massive voice. Someone who is on the fence might see other Holocaust deniers online and think that there are millions of like-minded people like them.

When this spreads beyond Holocaust denial and into social and human rights causes, you have a disaster in the making. Those same people will make real decisions off their manipulated beliefs, and that hurts everyone.

6600 soldiers, but are any of them heros?

Immich, I believe, is linked to Futo. And Futo has a license model that's basically "if you like this app, and want to support the development, consider buying a license."

Sounds like it might be similar with Immich.

Better than "donate to this project", since a license seems more like the user is getting something out of it, even if it's basically a glorified donation 😂

And if real income falls, that’s called a recession.

But by that metric, rich people would never experience a recession. If that's the case, why do we allow them to cause a recession for the rest of us? Madness.

The satisfaction in doing that would have been more than enough to justify the work! LOL

AI generated background?

At what point would the effort and expense be "too much"? LOL These parts are normally available for under $10 for the seal, bearing, clips, and metal post.

On the other hand, we have a shower faucet knob where this internal piece would always crack. We replaced that part many times with the official component, but I ended up 3d printing it, and it hasn't broken once in at least the last 6 years!

We've had excellent results with ours. Admittedly, I also add a lot of homemade "trail mix" to our recipes, so they are more than plain bread loafs! But we also use it to make pizza dough at least once a week.

Why not give the NDP a try?

Because the people they listen to tell them that if they lean left they are "gay" or "beta" or whatever other bullshit ego-destroying insults they project onto these young minds.

If young voters are worried about jobs, housing, healthcare, education, or crime, they need to stop "flocking" to Conservatives, and learn about how their provincial and municipal governments work.

And when they realize that Conservative leaders at the provincial and municipal levels of government are the ones directly affecting their lives, perhaps they will have an "ah ha" moment and vote for anyone but the Conservatives in the next election.

The fact that companies don't even care bothers me more than not being able to fix these items myself! 😱

As much as I love baking and making bread by hand, we use the bread maker (two, actually) so often that the convenience factor alone saves us many, many hours a week and has a much lower energy cost compared to our oven.
