Or even just generally. I think it's only 7,000 miles (11,250 km), and they're about USD$500 each.

Even funnier is when you look up how long a set of tires lasts on a cybertruck.

If every month was February? Or are you from a different planet?

An acquaintance went down last week, they had their passports and paperwork in order, going down for the weekend. US Customs searched their phones, fingerprinted them, took photos of them, and then let them through.

I will not even consider going to the USA anymore.

Well, their "food" now costs as much or more than a nice sit-down meal. And, in my opinion, it's terrible.

It's too bad that Affinity doesn't see that there is a market for professional graphics software in Linux.

Unfortunately, they probably look at the desktop market share of Linux and decided it's not worth spending time or money on. Definitely a chicken and egg situation.

I thought it was from France?

Update: I don't think it's Canadian. In fact it only arrived in Canada in 2023.

Does it work in Linux?

I won't even remotely consider voting for anyone who refuses to apply for and receive security clearance because having it is essential to running the country. The system currently in place is fine, no need for your ai-generated utopian wish.

Parties at the bottom of the polls can promise literally anything in their platform, it's irrelevant because they're not going to form government.

This election is do or die for our sovereignty, for our economy, and likely for our very existence. We face an absolutely real threat, and now is not the time to let vote splitting allow the conservatives to win.

I used to vote conservative, but I will never vote for a party with a "leader" that is like a dollar store version of Trump, who parrots many of the same bullshit talking points, including the use of childish nicknames for people. The refusal to apply for a security clearance is shady, and implies that he's hiding something.

I will never support a party that wants to take away people's rights, whether women, visible minorities, lgbtq, or anything else. Don't even get me started on healthcare.

The government is to support the citizens, not to remove rights and cause harm.

Security clearance should not be administered by any independent anything. It needs to be done by the intelligence arm of the government that has access to everything they need to access. Any candidate that won't apply should not be able to run. Period.

What party do you think who has any chance of forming a majority government will fix our broken FPTP electoral system?

We're facing a very real threat to our very existence. Splitting the votes in the middle and left will only guarantee that the conservatives win.

Also, I don't trust anyone who won't get security clearance, seriously what is he hiding?

It's weird isn't it?

Maybe he knows he would fail the background checks. And what happens if the elected prime minister fails the background checks and doesn't qualify for security clearance? I hope we don't find out.
