Or, I can continue to use the internet in such a way that neither our, nor the US government, can track or limit my media consumption.

Facebox argued that piracy is ok! Good enough for a billionaire, good enough for me!

Have you ever used a VPN to compare the selection available to Canada vs the US?

CanCon for streaming is bullshit. Does every message board have to have a percentage of Canadian posts? Does Twitch have to have a percentage of Canadian Gamers? The Canadian-ized versions of streaming sites are always a step down, removing shows in favour of Bell media shovelware.

What was the conservative plan again?

A huge failure? Of a Canadian government? I don't believe you.

Totally predicable for the past 60 years, news?

Look at the demand and supply graphs for the 6 day period: https://www.ieso.ca/power-data

The lowest demand is about 12K MW, that is the base load, the load never goes below that. Nuclear and hydro cover that 12K MW constantly, and even hydro is throttles up and down to cover the some of the load that varies throughout the day.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_load

Power plants that do not change their power output quickly, such as some large coal or nuclear plants, are generally called baseload power plants.

South Korea

Wasn't there a massive movement of military force that got called off with minutes to spare?

mass production efficiencies wouldn’t kick in until they’re building hundreds or thousands

Maybe if you are building laptops and dishwashers. These are small building crammed with plumbing and electrical work, making 4 or 5 of them in a dedicated factory will significantly reduce production costs. You can have one guy who is good at flanged stainless pipe, one guy who is a panel building wizard, and so on. The first project will take the normal amount of time, each subsequent one will go much faster because the team already has a process in place.

Source: I worked industrial construction for 6 years, jobs where more than one copy of the same machine was being built always came in under budget because each copy was built quicker than the last.

A baseload power source’s most important quality isn’t constant output, it’s rapidly adaptable output.

A baseload supply shouldn't need to throttle up and down, it's the Base Load. The load that exists 24hrs a day.

TIL SearXNG, I will be testing that out this weekend.

They wanted the other guy. Voting 80% in favour for a guy only to have him tossed out by some rich prick might change some minds.

That has been good advice for at least a two decades.

Beaverton or not, it is true. No one wants to be known as the company that hired the failed trucker convoy pm.

Betteridge's law: no. The liberals were the smart choice this time but there is no reason for them change the rules that let them win.

So which is it, liberals are too easy on crime or prisons are labour camps?

Yes, let's join the countries that run on slavery! Then the conservatives don't have to hide their plans to convert Canada into the North American branch of China's slave labour industry.

Both of our 2.5 parties bleed money without significantly improving quality of life for people at the bottom.

Solid use of taxpayer funding.
