Our newly-elected Premier has unfortunately doubled down on giving cars priority with the mandated removal of bike lanes and building new highways (413), even though their own data says that Toronto with be just as congested a few years after building them.

Oh I forgot to mention the tunnel under the 401, which is a massive boondoggle waiting to happen

I'm so happy this important issue is finally getting taken care of.

. . . . . That doesn't really need /s on it.. right?

I am against stripping citizenship from anyone, Musk included, unless the citizenship was obtained under false pretenses.

In the end, I signed this petition yesterday simply to voice my discontent, knowing that this would never happen.

Has he committed treason against Canada? Unsure.

Election interference? More likely

Two years ago, I could get $35-40k (CDN), and now it's $25k

I bought the absolute cheapest model and had to stretch my budget a little in order to do it

I looked to sell mine about 2 years ago, but the resale on it was so bad, I just couldn't afford it.

I have to settle for just never buying another Elon product, even preferring 3rd party chargers instead of superchargers. And maybe get one of those bumper stickers

Before this, the only place I have ever heard that slur is from a Pink Floyd song, but until now I could only guess to whom it referred.

They probably used that graphic because Toronto has an actual raccoon problem. I'm not commenting on the "tastefulness" of the graphic

Can I join this club even though I don't have an Air?

You are correct.

Did I detect a hint of cynicism there?

"It's expected to take four to five years to design the future high-speed line. Funds are to be allocated at the end of that time period, so it's possible a future government could modify or cancel the project."

I'm hoping this comes to pass, but I have a small shred of doubt

Huh that's strange because I've never had the driver break on me.

But I guess it means you've successfully installed the new card? Awesome

Might be a bit late of a reply, but I was able to install the Broadcom drivers super easy on my 2013 MBP. I know, different laptop, but same driver.

After installing Manjaro, KDE Neon, and Kubuntu, here's what I did:

I paired it with my phone and shared my internet connection, then downloaded the Broadcom driver in the repo. Done!

I also installed Aurora (Fedora immutable distro) on it, and the Broadcom drivers were already installed, so it just worked, but every time my laptop went to sleep it crashed and I had to hold the power button to start it, so I gave up on that and installed Neon

 

Hi folks,

I downloaded Aurora (https://getaurora.dev/) the other day with the intention of installing it on my 2013 MacBook Pro.

It wasn't until I got to the install screen when I realized that I have no networking.

I currently have Manjaro installed on this laptop, and I remember having to connect via Bluetooth to my phone to download and the Broadcom BCM4360 drivers.

Is there a good way to bake that into the image prior to installing?

Either that or I can try downloading the driver over Bluetooth again, but then I'll need to use a command to somehow layer it on top of the existing image? (rpm-ostree?)

Sorry if I'm missing some command or documentation, but it is a little more confusing trying out these immutable distros.

Has anyone else out there run into this issue and worked around it?

 

We have a few sites on our intranet at work that I constantly end up searching on Google instead of visiting the site.

If I type in the address bar

https://site.work/customers/12345

it will navigate just fine, but if I just type

site.work/customers/12345

it executes a Google search

Is there any way for me to add a whitelist for a given hostname? I don't want to turn keyword.enabled off.. I only want to turn it off for one site.

 

Since I've abandoned Reddit, I find myself looking for content similar to what I was subscribed to on there.

This looks to be the most active of the Lemmy transplants, so it looks like I'll do my lurking here instead on some other Lemmy community.

As much as a shitshow it's turning out to be over there, I am thankful for Reddit and for having had /r/atheism as a default sub, otherwise it would have taken me a little longer to become atheist
