Man, what the fuck

And it’s a million times better for people trying to troubleshoot.

1 forum post can solve many problems, rather than having to have each person ask in a support chat that’s not searchable.

At that point why not run a WDS

What I’m the actual fuck are you on about now?

I think you gotta see a therapist or something dude. That’s straight, like no more jokes, you gotta see somebody.

Ah shit. That’s the mirror! you’re going to have to keep trying bud, thanks!

It’s kinda like… silver and purple sparkly? I guess? With black hooks.

You’ll know it when you see it.

Hey when you get back under the bridge can you check to see if my lure is down there?

It snapped off a while back and damn I just can’t find one like it.

Once again. Corporations aren’t your friend, no matter the head count. It’s that simple. Don’t simp for people who don’t give a fuck about you or your family. Full stop.

Second. Again. Capital flight is a boogeyman. Alberta and Sask aren’t comparable. Alberta has cities, amenities and established populations, Sask doesn’t. If you want to take anything flight seriously, how about brain drain in our high paying, sought after career sectors, where we educate our population only for them to leave for better opportunities elsewhere? Doctors aren’t going to stay for the pittance, and software engineers aren’t going to keep staying for the remarkable amount of investment the government is putting to try to establish STEM in Canada because the private sector isn’t competitive with their salaries. Fuck your capital flight, if these are the corporations you’re afraid of leaving I’m more than willing to say goodbye, because the ones who fill the gaps will likely see the case studies and change course.

I’ll give you a spoiler alert. They’re not going anywhere. Just like they haven’t left Aus, NZ or the other dozen and change 1st world countries with high corporate tax rates than Canada. It’s not happening, you’re afraid of a ghost.

Corporations aren’t your friends, they aren’t going to give you any preferential treatment that they aren’t seeing the better side of.

Capital flight is also not a thing, it’s a bogeyman set up by conservatives to avoid raising taxes.

Businesses also won’t leave. Their remarkable treatment in Canada will go down to slightly less remarkable. They moan and groan and set up a whole ad campaign about how this is going to hurt the consumer but that means it’s working. And if you mean “small business” there are so so so many way ways to create exceptions or offer grants to Canadians starting or operating small businesses, where the target is larger oligopolies and conglomerates.

A happy, healthy, educated population is a productive population.

I did this today. Was trying to get a searxng instance running on oracle cloud’s free tier, but it’s so doggedly slow between OS, docker, searxng, that it’s useless and locks up all the time.

And their free ARM option never has availability so I just deleted the instance and started a new one with great speed to burn through my free credits.
