Just your friendly, neighborhood, geek who loves to crochet.
I’m using Voyager and everything’s been good for me.
You would be far better off speaking to one of those debt consolidation places than trying to juggle it around like that. I’m not sure where you are located, but hopefully there is one that can help.
I mean… No jobs? I wouldn’t want to rent to someone who had no job either. That’s an insane risk. Even as a Canadian citizen who was born here I would not expect someone to rent to me if I had no job.
Sounds good when you phrase it like the headline. But all they’ve done is trade coal for natural gas. So it’s still a carbon heavy power grid, just slightly better than coal.
Ya it could be a Grackle. Does it move the injured wing in any way normally? If it can’t move the wing at all normally it may not heal well without medical intervention. Unfortunately their wings are very delicate. It sounds like you’ve done all you can in terms of phoning vets and rehabs, so I can’t really help much there, but just keep up what you are doing and keep checking with the rehabs that take small birds. Either the wing heals on it’s own or not, but either way it feels like you are doing all the right things. I hope it works out!
I wasn’t aware that we all had to adhere to YOUR standards of which softwares are useful/needed.
Sometimes people just want something. Maybe it doesn’t align with what you want, but that doesn’t make it wrong.
Sask is, in fact, quite far behind.
This opinion piece fails to explain how inclusion is causing the problem. Correlation does not equal causation, but the link between inclusion and the test score is not elaborated on beyond a brief mention.
Why not both?
I use bypass paywalls clean on Mull by activating the Secret menu and choosing to install add-on from file. Works great for me.
Secret menu is in the About Mull page (tap on the logo 5 times) then back out to the settings pane to see some additional settings items added like install add-on from file.
How ironic. Alberta, the one complaining about the Feds imposing on “their jurisdiction” and then they go and impose all over the municipalities. The hypocrisy is ridiculous. They really are just in it for what they want. Screw the Feds, screw the cities, just let us be dictators! Ick.
Alternate headline: Local businesses learn about the phenomenon known as “tourism.”
All joking aside, I’m glad this helped out some smaller businesses.
If only the economics of whole countries was this simple.
Ahh I see the confusion, my original comment was more a remark on the fact that they are complaining about “stagnant” productivity, when wages are in a really poor place and probably contributing to the overall poor productivity. Because who wants to do more for less pay? I was not intending it to be a commentary agreeing that productivity increases wages, but rather it should be the other way around. If you want productive workers, then pay them to be productive!
The study you linked proves that there is significant wage inequality. The very first chart demonstrates that even though productivity has increased, wages have not kept up. This is exactly my point. I’m not sure if you were intending to agree with me, but your link is just further proof that wages are definitely not where they should be.
“Why should I work so hard for wages that don’t compensate me for said work?” Said every underpaid worker ever.
My place of employment has been cutting headcount for years and just expecting the existing employees to do the same, and more, work for no increase in pay. And they wonder why productivity suffers?! I am still only one person. I cannot possibly perform as well as 3 people. Maybe if you’d stop cutting headcount and focus on getting things done, we’d actually be productive.
Labour productivity has grown by 0.2 percent annually, on average, between early 2015 and the end of 2023.
…average weekly earnings have increased only 1.6 percent between January 2015 and January 2024, or less than 0.2 percent per year.
This sounds like productivity is commensurate with pay. Maybe instead of advocating for interest rates to drop (which has issues of its own), we should be advocating for proper pay raises?
Edit to add a note: This comment is intending to call them out about poor wages. If you want more productivity, then pay us for it! I’m sick of doing the work of 3 people with measly, if any, wage raises!
How extensive of editing are we talking? If you just need some of the more basic features, there is Paint.NET which is surprisingly useful for a lot more than you’d think. Definitely not as feature-rich as Photoshop though.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. But this article makes their idea sound like a magic bullet. But there is no magic bullet in this fight unfortunately.
I live in an apartment where the only natural gas items are my furnace and hot water heater. But even if I wanted to convert (which I can’t since I rent), it wouldn’t make one lick of difference because I live in Saskatchewan where our power grid is still 80% fossil fuel powered. So using electricity is no “greener” than using the natural gas myself. Plus using natural gas is far far cheaper than electricity (even with the price on carbon for doing so).
This issue is a lot more complex than just “more houses that are all electric with no natural gas” when you take into consideration the power grids they are attached to.
However a large percentage of our parking is never used and this the problem is exacerbated by mandatory parking minimums as the article points out.
I find “never” to be an exaggeration. The lots are used during the business hours of whatever business owns that lot. Does that mean there is a significant chunk of time where there is no one parked there? Sure, but it’s certainly not “never.” In Regina, I can’t think of a single parking lot I have ever seen that didn’t have at least SOMEONE parked there. Street parking is used quite frequently as well. Parking in the downtown core is a ridiculous race of “first come first served” because there literally isn’t enough parking downtown for all of the employees that work there.
Plus, with our system of free parking, those in our society who can’t afford cars/aren’t able to drive are subsidizing you and me when we drive places. The cost of parking is split amongst all customers (in the case of private parking) or residents (in the case of municipal lots), even those who take public transit, walk, or bike.
The downtown core of Regina (talked about in the article) is NOT free parking. At all. There is no free parking to be found in the downtown core at all (that isn’t like 3 spots reserved for particular business customers). Residential areas get basic street parking (not lots). There are very few “parking lots” in residential areas. The only free lots are outside major shopping centers that are outside the downtown core, and those often have spots reserved for customers of those shopping centers.
You probably buy $300 worth of groceries at a time because the store is inconvenient to get to (due to Euclidean Zoning and our general lack of density). I honestly do the same thing. However, when I lived in a denser city, I commuted by bike or bus and would grab groceries every day on my way home, and it added minimal time to my travel. I’m not arguing you should move or drastically change your life, but that the city should improve around you.
I buy $300 worth of groceries at a time because I work from home and any trips outside my house are specifically for errands, so groceries/errands become a dedicated trip because I don’t have an “on the way home from work” sort of schedule.
But yes, a big part of the issue is zoning. I live in a newer “high density” neighborhood. Large condo buildings, narrow streets, almost no on-street parking due to said narrow streets, I get one spot in my back alley for my small car (and I’m charged an extra $100 per month on my rent for it), and the grocery store is still a 30 minute walk/10 minute bike ride away. It could absolutely be made better with some better designed bus routes, better zoning designs, and some effort. Sadly most cities don’t seem interested in walkable cities or investing in public transit.
I would love to see more dedicated bike lanes (there are none in my neighborhood), short-haul bus routes specifically between the grocery stores and nearby residential areas to make hauling groceries home less of a chore, more sheltered bus stops to protect from both heat and cold, and less resistance to things like e-bikes and such that would make the trips less onerous. There’s still a big stigma in Regina regarding e-bikes and scooters for some reason despite their benefits.
I’ve been looking for a new launcher. Though this one isn’t selling itself with no screenshots. I don’t use telegram, so I don’t know if there’s screenshots in there.
Edit: They posted screenshots in the Google Play page. Found them.
