Even better re using Linux. I just made an assumption there.

GTA VI you mean?

Also unfortunately Windows is getting more locked down all the time, with newfangled things like kernel-level DRM and such.

Still way better than the consoles, though, so keep up the good fight.

But those were Ontario conservatives, not good God fearing Alberta conservatives.

The UCP didn't win the federal election, so they wanna separate.

I'm failing to see the downside.

Seriously, if this is costing us 11 billion a day in economic damage, get more people working from home.

So much this. I'm not in Ontario, my commute in Saskatoon is an obscene 15 minutes, so I don't go into work all the time. People have asked why I never took any tech jobs in Toronto or KW, and there are two major reasons: 1. Too people-y. I am a small town person, and 2. TRAFFIC HOLY FUCK WHO CAN SIT IN A CAR THAT LONG IN THE CITY?!!? I won't move to Calgary, Edmonton, or even Winnipeg for the same reason and they're not nearly as bad.

Rituals are rituals for a reason. Sometimes they work.

I saw some dbag the other day driving a perfectly clean Ford F-350. In Western Canada. In April. It was clean. He was also headed downtown and wearing a suit. That truck has never had so much as a pebble in the treads of its tires.

Where I live you only get deducted points for some kinds of speeding. Speeding in a school zone or residential street? Lose points. Excessive speeding? Lose points. Going 120kph in a 110kph zone on the highway between cities? Smallish fine and be on your way.

Seat Alhambra

Never heard of this vehicle before. Now I want one. Wonder how much it'd cost to import it to Canada....

Don't forget the most important thing you can do with a Ram: mod the diesel engine to spit out even more black smoke than normal while surviving smashing into something when you're drink driving on a residential road.

Penisenlarger 3000

... just to continue the joke.. Penisenlarger 3500. All of their models seem to end in 500 for some reason. Ram 1500, Ram 2500, Ram 3500...

I haven't experienced that in a very long time, but I do remember it certainly used to be the case. I imagine it still is in some areas. I need to travel quite far from my city to experience it these days.
