Nouveau_Burnswick,

Once you prize your son off helldivers, you should play helldivers.

In all seriousness, homarr now has some fledgling home assistant integration, and I saw a really slick showcase in the discord where someone was using home assistant pages in iframes (mobile view) within a overall homarr page (desktop view).

Nouveau_Burnswick,

You got libraries where you are?

Mine does online rentals for digital products (movies, TV, audiobooks, ebooks).

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Not everyone in Québec is a French Canadian. There are also French Canadians in the rest of Canada.

But I’m guessing laïcité is a concept you would like to learn more about before making sweeping judgements? Laïcité isn’t perfect, but neither is exemptionism. Laïcité fails people who want to completely freely express their religion, where exemptionism fails those who want to be free from the religion of others.

Have spend time in religious-conflict zones, I’m personally biased towards laïcité. You can imagine Muslims and Jews might want some freedom from seeing symbols of the other’s religion in public institutions right now with the ongoing conflict. Similar feeling for Christians, Orthodox, and Muslims after the Yugoslavian wars; or Christians and Muslims in sub-saharan African; or Sunnis and Shias on Yemen; or anyone who’s not Deobandian Sunni in Afghanistan.

Exemptionism is great for people who haven’t experienced religious persecution. Québécois.e.s feel, real or precived, that they were persecuted by their own religion. This led to the silent revolution, and has a lasting effect of voting in favour of more restrictive, over open, religious freedom laws.

I hope this helps, and of you have examples of which darker skin religions do not get to keep their culture, I would be interested to hear. My own burrough has large Haitian, Jamaican, and Côté d’ivoirian communities; and a fledgling laosian one.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Instead of training the drivers, put the goods on trains.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

So by this logic, if I buy something at a “don’t pay the tax event”…

Pi.Alert is dead...💀 Long live NetAlert X 🚀 (network monitoring) (lemmy.world)

After thinking for about a year about it I decided to rename the project to 🚀NetAlertX. This will help prevent confusion about which fork someone is using, and differentiate it from the now stale upstream project. With about 1800 or so commits over the stale project, I thought, this project deserved a new name. It will also...

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Breaking change!

Now I’ve got to update my dashboards with the new name and icon 😀

Nouveau_Burnswick, (edited )

Best:

Network rack, unifi wifi, and cabling

Home assistant

Zigbee devices.

Smart heating/cooling

Automated lights

Hacked T6Es

Worst:

Batteried smart blinds (with not battery level reporting)

Bed mat sensors (some issues)

Nouveau_Burnswick,

In short, the issue was that the battery blinds don’t alert when they are low battery, and he didn’t think to hard-wire them in advance.

Ones that are close enough to power, he’s run some 5v lines on an automation timer.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

I’ve had this before. Three of use saw purple questions, the last saw whatever the texture wa supposed to be (weapon I think)

Nouveau_Burnswick,

We’ve already got MAID for veterans with PTSD.

As someone who gets moved for work every 2-3 years, fuck that very much on taking away primary residence capital gains exemption. Obviously I’m on the more extreme end of the scale; but the principal of increasing the cost of moving has impacts on reducing opportunities of families through first and second order effects.

Lifetime exemption cap is fine. Alternatively maximum percentage increase per year exemption (I don’t know, 10%?). If we go the lifetime exemption route, please include negative sales.

maybe incentivize people to not own a goddamn ugly-ass cookie-cutter McMansion, leading to a teensy bit more densification

Capital gains exemption or reduction if you increase the number of housing units AND floor space. (Chopping an existing build into two? No exemption. Replace that SF bungalow with a Plex? Total exemption).

Or at least leave more greenspace on a standard lot.

Disagree, fuck lawns. Some persons private micro park is less important than more housing per lot. Native species gardens are fine, but they still aren’t housing units.

What makes you think I’m making over $250k each move?

Edit: because of the new $250k exemption. I misunderstood that they were requesting a wholesale removal, not aligning with the current proposal.

Last three moves: -50k (3 years) +100k (2 years) +20k (2 years) +30k (2 years)

So +100k over 11 years.

And that’s just the price differential, that ignores the thousands that go into fees to buy and sell. My employer covers those for me, but they are considerations that increase move inertia for those without.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

I missed the news on the new 250k exemption.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

The conversation diverted from the actual tax to the concept of a wholesale removal of capital gain exemption. I have thoughts about that.

Edit: and besides, land value tax would solve this

Nouveau_Burnswick,

I left confused then came back when my brain clicked 5 minutes later.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

My 5G mobile coverage improves about 7 days after my annual shot.

I figure by 2027 I can ditch my home router.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

I lived in a small town with a small theatre.

If you couldn’t make a show, you called it in and they’d try to resell your ticket; if they succeed, you we’re refunded. So there was no “due date/time” but the sooner you asked them to resell, the better your odds.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Never any other cars in car ads, the road is all yours

Nouveau_Burnswick,

You can also just look and the model number of your rental and buy that.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

The shell producting is correct: www.cnn.com/2024/03/10/politics/…/index.html

Negotiation was already tried with Crimea.

Alberta tables law to prevent federal 'manipulation' of municipalities (www.cbc.ca)

The Alberta government has introduced legislation that would require provincial entities such as universities, school boards and municipalities to get approval before making any funding deals with Ottawa. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says the legislation would ensure federal funding is aligned with provincial priorities.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Bloc Québécois would win so many federal elections if they expanded outside Québec.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

In short, while the BQ obviously has Québec’s interests as the reasoning, it’s a confederist party; anyone who’s in favour of more provincial, over federal, control would (probably) be in favour of the BQ’s policies.

Alberta seems to swing that way, BC and Ontario could probably be swayed that way as well…

Nouveau_Burnswick,

It looks like you are in Ontario.

Part of that is because Ontario vehicle registration renewal is free, which obviously isn’t free, it just means taxes pay for it instead. For comparison, registration in QC is $210-$300 per year, based on area; before any large size or extra cylinder fees.

Your insurance is also exceptionally low for Ontario.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

Thanks for the tip on CAA pay as you go, I only put in 4000 last year.

Québecs rate is brutal; but it’s because a lot of externalities of driving are covered by that fund. For example, if a pedestrian gets hit and runned, that find pays for it if the driver (and their insurance) can’t be found.

The $100 difference in finds are based on home much public transit is available where you are, the more transit, the more you pay. (Though I’ve also thought I should also get $100 off a yearly transit pass)
