I know a guy that claims to get headaches not just from any wireless source, but from any electromagnetic source. He won't use a cell phone, cordless phone, wifi and doesn't even like standing next to a PC... but a Mac is fine.
Second, the company I work for moved offices recently. In our new office, 2.4GHz wireless is so slow because of all the access points in the area. We're moving back to wires in the office as a result.
I'm sort of right behind you. I can understand SystemD for creating the tools to make a good desktop. However, tools that make a good desktop do not necessarily make a good server. That's where I see the problem.
I run Linux Mint on my desktop and as long as it works, I don't really care what's under the hood. However, I also maintain servers where I care very much what happens under the hood. For example, I care about being able to read plain text logs and I don't understand what possible reason there could be for storing logs in a binary format. I also don't see the need to have a super complex system configuring my network interface simply because in a typical server environment your IP address doesn't change often, if at all.
I'm definitely looking at FreeBSD again (it's been 15 years since I touched any BSD outside of monowall/pfsense) and am using it for a new project at work that's currently in Alpha testing phase. I'm doing it because it's more in line with my KISS preferences but I will admit that I miss iproute2.
It's Richmond, not Vancouver, that's trying to encourage english in the business sphere. The reason is because there are so many chinese only signs that many non-chinese aren't even going into the city and it's hurting the city. I know that I only go into Richmond when I absolutely have to, and there's no reason for me to go. I haven't been there since I quit my last job that was in Richmond over a year ago.
As for the Quebec referendum, the only problem I had with it is no one asked the rest of the country if they could stay. That would've been a VERY different referendum if that happened.
We should probably put in some episodes of "Due South" (which was a fantastic series. I'm gonna have to revist that in another 5-10 years.) and Trailer Park Boys.
For what it's worth, losing the Canadian market would be roughly the equivalent to losing the California market for them as far as population goes. From a regulatory perspective, it'd be even easier.
When you consider that this is actually fairly typical of the returns in any Canadian federal election since the 1950s, then I can make the same claim of many Liberal governments as well, except for the bias towards Ontario in those cases. The west votes Conservative for some very good reasons (NEP and CWB for starters).
>The most telling artefact of CanCon is still the radio though, try listening to a rock station for more than a day in a row without hearing at least one Rush, Guess Who or Nickelback (ugh) track. I don't mind some of it but you can tell when it's Canadian percentile block time and you'll want to shoot yourself in the face with a 22
Crap like that is the reason I don't listen to domestic music radio. Ever. Period. I listen to the local news/traffic station and the rest of the time, it's satellite radio.
As for the 22, I'll need to see your firearms permit before you discharge that firearm.
There is no real "canadian culture" where mass media is concerned. As for the definition of Canadian Culture, I think the best one I've heard is, "It's not american".
One solution would be to rearrange the cells in new prisons to allow them to communicate with a small group of other prisoners even while isolated. Perhaps if they were placed in such a way as to allow them to physically interact at even a distant level so they can play cards or board games.
The current system is complete isolation but it may not be necessary. Just high isolation may be enough to keep the danger level down but the mental health of the prisoners up.
France really isn't. They don't perceive any sort of attack on their culture and every one of their neighbours speaks a different language (except Belgium, which speaks French). Quebec, on the other hand, is smack dab in the middle of an English speaking CONTINENT. All their neighbours speak English and they perceive any anglo encroachment as an attack on their culture. The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled Bill 101 and other language laws as unconstitutional, but by invoking the Notwithstanding Clause they are able to ignore that ruling.
Personally, I think all anglos should run, not walk, to an english speaking jurisdiction. Let Quebec die under the weight of their language storm troopers.

Two stories about people not using wifi.

I think the Edsel predates that with the push buttons to select gears on the steering wheel.
For that matter, how does Canada deal with it? Is it something like this or something else?
We round to then nearest nickel. 0.02 is 0.00 and 0.03 is 0.05.
It's not much of a good ad. They're under attack and not weathering it well.

Just remember not to walk on freeways and some highways. That's illegal

As a resident of BC, I am of the opinion that civil forfeiture MUST be tied to a criminal conviction that is RELATED to the crime committed.
587 is specifically meant for clients to send mail to a server. All email clients should be sending through 587 using encryption and authentication.

Never said you were Liberal. I was just pointing out the stats. For me, the old Reform now CPC seems to hold closest to my views.
They could roll the CRTC stuff into Industry Canada, ditch the political crap, and everyone would be happier. And I suspect more would get done.

Will it also fix that attitude of his?

They tried this a few years back out east. Needless to say, they kinda had to back off due to the backlash. I'm sure they'll try again though.
Clothing is tarriffed on import. I know, I got nailed with that when I came back from India a few years back.

My nickel (now that we no longer have pennies).
It's a good start, but alternators are terribly inefficient so you'll want to learn to wind your own generators.

We have them already. They're called "hoodies".

As someone who is from, and living in, B.C., I can confirm that more people speak Mandarin than French here.
I think you mean Jacques. He's the dick from Quebec. Scott lives in Toronto.
