Italian, most likely

Can you elaborate on the last part of your comment? I'm not sure I fully understand, though it sounds like we mostly agree.

I'm not sure why you threw in that digression about political leaning at the end, though. It makes your last statement pretty vague.

The "paradox of tolerance" is a concept I love to bring up time and time again.

No tolerance for the intolerant, lest intolerants take over tolerant spaces and turn them intolerant.

Yes, it means "virtual machine", but not the kind you're thinking of.

This isn't like VMware Workstation, this is more like the Java VM or the Dalvik VM, it's a virtual execution environment for a specific purpose.

real answer: dead project, too ambitious yet redundant with existing solutions.

In this context, a VM is like NodeJS or JVM.

Good info, thanks! I'll call 311 first and see if they want to deal with it, otherwise I'll go take it down.

I got a couple conservative signs still up in my district while all other parties have mostly taken down their signs, should I pick them up and recycle them or am I not legally allowed to remove or otherwise move them?

I'm Québécois, don't vouvoie me, I'll think you're calling me old.

"Tu" is definitely preferred for anyone born after 1985 in my experience unless it's a very formal context.

In school, the younger teachers wanted to be tutoyés, and the older teachers wanted to be vouvoyés.

What does this list look like when adjusted per capita?

For the US, this is 4% of people, for Canada, this is 2% of people.

Ok and?

Israel objectively committed the definition of genocide, cope harder.

Criticism of a state is not inherently anti-Semitism, that's a classic guilt-by-association fallacy. Israel is a state, not a group of people, we are not talking about Israelis here.

I'm not even on the Palestinian side, Hamas did some shit too and captured hostages, but Israel used that as an excuse to hit back with disproportional force that's killed a lot of Palestinian civilians, and it's highly likely they've been doing so on purpose.

Although it has not officially been declared a genocide, the UN is very concerned with Israel's actions, and they should not be celebrated.

Israel has also repeatedly attacked the UN, making it clear they want them to stop rendering aid to Gaza so they can kill as many Palestinians as possible.

Here's some data on Palestinian vs Israeli death and injury counts up until 2023, with a link towards data beyond that point on the page.

Only if that data centre is located on US soil.

Possibly, but no country has ever done it this way, possibly because it would make elections really expensive and discourage a change of government.

I... don't see how a slap on the wrist for people who don't vote would "obstruct" voting.

It could also be $25 off your tax burden, but it's less immediate and probably less effective.

Btw it's a thing in many other countries: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compulsory_voting

The Wikipedia page also has excellent arguments for and against the practice.
