It's a mix for me. I'll definitely use the CLI for most things, but I find some things easier with a GUI:
- Viewing history / branches
- cherry picking
- unstaging files

Almost like Sam Altman is just another run of the mill tech bro scam guy.
> Tamara Lich, Chris Barber accused of orchestrating 2022 demonstration that took over downtown Ottawa It started more than a year ago, took nearly 50 days in a courtroom and may not be decided until next year, but the trial of two leaders of the 2022 "Freedom Convoy" protest in Ottawa finally ended Friday. > Tamara Lich and Chris Barber pleaded not guilty to mischief, intimidation, obstruction and other charges. > Crown prosecutors called 16 witnesses and presented hours of video evidence and numerous social media posts in an effort to prove their case. I seriously hope these two racist assholes get what they deserve, but with Lawrence Greenspon as their lawyer, who knows.
> The "Roaring Lion" has been found. > A 1941 portrait of British prime minister Sir Winston Churchill by famed Canadian photographer Yousuf Karsh, which was reported stolen from the lobby of Ottawa's Fairmont Château Laurier hotel in August 2022, has been located in Italy, sources tell CBC News. > Ottawa police investigators, who tracked the photo down, say it is set to be returned to the hotel

The provincial maximum on rent-controlled apartments last year was 2.5 per cent, but Sharpe’s building has no limit because Ontario Premier Doug Ford removed controls on any rental units built or occupied after November, 2018.
Yet another thing that our Conservative Premier here in Ontario has done, yet the public is still going to blame the federal government.

Interesting question. I've never really considered it before, and I don't really know if I can competently comment.

That was fascinating, thanks for sharing. I only wish more people would read this kind of stuff and realize what life could be like when they give up the hard-earned benefits unions of the past got for us.
Nothing was given, it was all fought for.

4G had a lot of the same issues as 3G, but 5G was a complete redesign (including security). It was supposed to have been way harder to break than previous generations.

Japan has been found to be illegally whaling previously. How is it that they can get someone arrested for damaging their vessels, and no consequences to themselves? (I know I know... The world we live in)
Is the fact that Greenland (another whaling country) carried out the arrest significant here?

Well, if they won't send him home, we should all just start calling the team "the Dutch Rapists".
Maybe if enough people do it, they might find a conscience?

Hey all! I've spent a couple of days skimming the web to no result, and was wondering if anyone could provide a suggestion? I have an old (donated) USB audio interface, which has a Linux kernel module, but only runs on x86. I was hoping to make a little project out of it, and see if I can run it from a mini PC. I'm hoping to find a low-cost x86 option to run this, and realize that that factor will make it inherently a little pricier. Are there any common, older models I should keep an eye out for on the used market?

I just learned #OpenAI has released a feature to be able to build/train your own chat assistant, and to provide your own domain data. 🤯 This is going to change things in my world quite a bit.
Hey everyone, Kind of quiet here, so I thought I'd ask a question that's been on my mind for a while: What would make Ottawa better, in your view? Big or small. For me, it would be to improve the walkability. I walk, jog, cycle, motorbike, and drive, all fairly frequently. It drives me wild how long it takes (mid winter or bad weather) from the time I press a crosswalk button, to the time the lights change. I'd love to see that improved.
