I've been using Ubuntu/Kubuntu since 2004 and I've always been happy and had very little problems.
It's a good, no hassle distro that works and is fairly up to date, especially if you use the non-LTS ones. I prefer staying with LTS though. At least my OS is stable and I don't have to spend my free time troubleshooting anything.
I'm sorry but all of that is a big ass load of bullshit. No matter how you try to sugarcoat it.
First you talk about a coup, then you say it isn't. Then you attack Zelensky because he was an actor, completely disregarding what he's been able to do with the difficult situation he's in. Arnold Schwarzenegger was also an actor but was a great politician and was a great governor for California as far as Republicans go. So that's not a good reason to discredit someone. In fact, anybody can go into politics and become great.
His presidential term may have ended a year ago, but how the fuck do you conduct an election when a chunk of your country is under foreign occupation? There are usually measures in place in constitutions for times of war, and guess what? THEY'RE AT WAR!
I tried to keep an open mind about this and your article and watched your videos, but you're over the edge. You're irrational. I'm not gonna have this argument anymore. I'm done.
So I actually took the time to read those articles and watch the video. Now I'm not well informed on past Ukrainian politics, but none of them talk of Zelensky. Which I think was elected democratically and not put in power via a coup.
And honestly, if I had to pick between a pro-Russian and a pro-US government in that area of the world, I'd pick a pro US one for sure. It's the least worst choice.
I've stated repurchasing my Switch games on Steam (when rebates apply)
My switch games were all digital copies except for Zelda and Sea of Stars. I don't know if they'll even be available in the future should I accidentally delete them.
Eventually I might mod my Switch when it's not supported anymore by Nintendo and it doesn't connect to their network anymore.
Everything is wrong about every "color-pilled". Even the term sounds cringy late 2010's edgy teen bull shit.
On top of that, we're at a crossroads where Nazi-style fascism is making a return, the environment is going to shit and the world's wealth has been amassed in the hads of a very select few.
Now is the time as ever to rise, speak up and fight.
That's basically what René Levesque did to create Hydro Québec. The government purchased the existing Hydro Québec and bought every other electric company in the province.
We need to break the sprawled zoning and force the municipals to lower the development taxes that have been increased thousands of percent and are being passed on to new home buyers.
This is not going to work. You know what's going to happen? They'll remove the tax, and the prices will remain the same, and the housing promoters are going to pocket the difference. If people are already paying the insane high prices that we have now, why should they lower them if they can maximize their profits?
Greenbelt is another issue, as we have a lack of space to build and yet we want to continue to massively grow the population.
I don't understand what point you're trying to make here. Also this is very Toronto specific.
Mass transit would be great too if we actually built it, we are still the only country in the G7 without high speed rail. All we ever get is lip service on climate change, things like EV subsidies for the rich to consume more by replacing their 3 year old Lexus with a sports car, likely in order to artificially grow GDP so that the liberals have a better chance at winning elections.
💯%
I agree with a lot of what you're saying I just dont ever see those results, I see massive waste and plunder.
Well that's because we need to stop electing the Liberals or the Conservatives (who are basically the same party, fiscally speaking) and finally give the NDP a chance. Canada is a rich country. Except all the money's in the hands of an elite few and they have ways to avoid paying their fair fucking share while they reap all the benefits of our social services and infrastructure. Once we fix that, we'll be able to move ahead with these projects. It'll make Canada grow so much, too. The returns will be very big.
They increase the price and decrease the frequency or have trouble maintaining their infrastructure because of government financial cuts to said public transport services.
As far as infrastructure spending goes, there is PLENTY of work to be done. There are so many BIG issues that need to be addressed in Canada.
Government built public housing
Reduction of automobile dependency and building rapid mass public transit across Canada, at least between major metropolitan areas, that is independent from existing rails where CN and CP have priority over public trains.
Reduction of oil & coal electricity production and increasing wind, solar and nuclear powerplants.
Nationalizing communications network and deploying them to the farthest populated areas of Canada giving everyone access to reliable high-speed communications.
Fixing the drinking water in many regions of Canada where the water has become undrinkable due to pollution or deteriorating infrastructure. Especially around native residential areas where they have been requesting this for ages now.
Fixing abandonned fossil fuel extraction areas that are polluting the country and releasing toxic crap and greenhouse gasses.
Speaking of greenhouse gasses, we should start planting a fuck ton of trees, as our government had promised to do a few years back.
They're a separatist federal party. It's their jam.
Quebecers weren’t buying it. The Bloc is a federal party that exists to promote Quebec interests and, ultimately, its independence. Voters not only viewed Canada as a real country but they saw it as worth saving from the territorial clutches of US president Donald Trump. The province overwhelmingly rejected the Bloc’s ethnic nationalism and rallied around Mark Carney’s Liberals and a unified effort against American overreach.
Uhh.... no? They elected 22 members of the Bloc. That's still very good, even though it was less than the last parliament. Before that there were a LOT less Bloc MPs.
That'll never happen. One state for both? After all the pain, suffering, and death that zionists have caused to the Palestinians, Lebanese, and Syrians, I doubt very much they'd want to co-habitate with them.
Likewise, I don't think zionists will ever want to share their "God given" land with anybody else. No matter who it is, Arab or otherwise.
Israel was supposed to be a shining beacon of democracy and freedom in the Middle-East and we all see what it turned out to be. A fascist, judeo-ethnic nationalist state where if you're of the wrong religion or descent, you're nothing and have no rights.
It's wishful thinking.
The only solution that I can see is if we abolish Israel and give Palestine back to its people and allow Jewish immigrants to move there and gain Palestinian citizenship as it was and should have been, before the first zionist colonist from Europe ever set foot there.
