BC swings conservative because they wanted to kick Trudeau out. Which gives some idea of the relative intelligence of the voters. Think you should at least need to pass a test to vote.

You missed run “into the ground.”

Now add 200lbs and 50 years to orangie.

This is the point where every postal worker should just simultaneously hand in their resignation and let the senior managers and the governement burn. It would be years to train up enough new staff to cover if starting from scratch, and if conditions are as bad as the union says, they have little to lose.

Jackass likes attention. Don’t give it to him.

Ah, they probably got rid of that when they stopped making airports with HDs in them for network backups. I don’t think it ever was designed to work with 3rd party backup devices.

Give it time. Won’t be long with cons in charge. Never is.

Then let’s cut the salary and benefits for the top brass until they can make a deal that works. There’s no need to pay them while they’re not managing anyone.

Surprise! The government needs to stay the hell out of back to work orders and make sure management isn’t getting paid while a strike or lockout is happening.

Make the Canada post senior management deliver mail door to door until they reach a deal.

They’d have a deal in hours.

Not sure I never tried a local wifi backup. USB is generally faster and more reliable.

Perhaps until an agreement is reached, senior managers from Canada post should be slogging through the weather delivering mail that’s piled up so they can understand the workers’ position better, rather than sitting at a desk in a warm office thinking about money.

Edit: by managers i mean c-suite that are totally useless without employees to do the real work.

For the people whining about the strike, if they are as vital as you claim, then compensate them properly.

I still use iTunes to back up locally on my PC. On the Mac it looks like that functionality is embedded in finder now.

So I’m going to put it a different way that you absolutely won’t appreciate but is the truth.

I’m a homeowner (single detached) that has a significant mortgage. Anything that happens to lower prices is going to negatively impact me so I don’t want change to bring property prices down now, but to have them go up as high as possible so I can sell down the road and make money.

That’s what you’re dealing with. It’s not defeatism, it’s people actively voting against and impeding stuff that will go in the direction you seem to think people want. Many do not want change in that direction at all.

Preparing for downvotes from those who don’t like cold hard truth.

So problem will never be solved then. Far too much vested interest in the status quo from existing landowners.

Nobody is going to build “affordable housing” unless you like living 10 hours commute from major cities. And as soon as someone builds a bullet train to shorten the commute to an hour the prices will skyrocket.

The best explanation I’ve heard is they have someone who intentionally makes a subtle yet inconsequential change for internet people to whine about.

The power button thing doesn’t matter. It’s not a PC, you never turn it off.

I love mine. Exactly the solution I was looking for. I was going to get a Mac Studio but it was too expensive and this meets all of my needs for a work desktop.

Mac Studio resale prices around here are just tanking right now.

The second one is the relevant one. You have to allow the computer to sleep when the display is off or it will still stay awake and drawing power when the display is off.

It’s meant for laptops you want to run in a closed position with an external display when plugged in.

A friend had this and it was because he had his display set to sleep never. So it was essentially on all the time.

Make sure that prevent computer from sleeping when display is off is also disabled.

Think I’d rather wait in line than give my biometrics to a big corporate airline.

City Council: They could be playing safely in the streets for free, let’s make them play inside for fee!
