Canada@lemmy.ca•Ford tells protesters to 'go find a job' as controversial housing bill passes at Queen's Park
71·14 days agoYes, one of those many jobs that the job creators are creating from their reduced taxes that they’re definitely not using for their own benefit after mass layoffs.
I’m looking forward to the Frame. I have no interest in giving any money to Meta and Valve has been great with Linux support. I’ve seen people complain about the specs, but if it’s a reasonable price it looks pretty good to me!

Games@lemmy.world•Real talk, which would you rather have: Megaman 12, or Megaman X9?English

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Wayland and Sunshine (Streaming Games)English
4·1 month agoI run Sunshine on Arch-KDE-Wayland with a 4070Ti and stream at 1440 to another PC running the same thing. I haven’t checked frame rates in a while but it seems to be running fine for me.
Does the Thor run Linux with the standard Moonlight client? If you haven’t looked yet, double check Moonlight’s settings and make sure the frame rate, resolution, and other settings look ok.
If you’re streaming a Steam game, also make sure Steam doesn’t have it’s recording enabled. I think Valve enabled it by default some time ago and that tanked my frame rate at the time. There’s a “Game Recording” section in Steam’s settings where you can turn it off.
Sunshine also has logs in the Troubleshooting section on its web client. Maybe see if there’s anything fishy in there too.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Alberta premier ‘cannot double-talk’ about Ottawa depending on her interests: Chrétien
19·1 month agoTypical conservative MO. When things are going my way it’s all about how great I am and everyone else is useless. When things aren’t going my way, it’s all about how everyone is getting in the way and we all need to work together to achieve my goals.
Alberta separatism is even stupider. If they think getting a pipeline is hard now, imagine having to cross international borders. Even if they went south through the USA there will still be complications.
Good on Chrétien for calling this out publicly.

Programming@programming.dev•Just Talk To It - the no-bs Way of Agentic Engineering
21·1 month ago“Agentic Engineering”. No, it’s called vibe coding. AI bros are so desperate for legitimacy they make up fancy sounding titles for themselves.
But this isn’t engineering. Engineering takes rigor and discipline and process and understanding… A lot of it is extremely boring too. The code itself is probably the easiest (and I’d argue least important) part of software engineering. These guys are burning down forests to poorly automate the easy part.
I’m not saying that coding is easy in an absolute sense, but only relative to the rest of the discipline. A good engineer knows how to design/architect a system, understand tradeoffs, balance customer/user requirements with business needs, set up proper testing and releases, properly document everything, etc.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Danielle Smith to striking teachers: Go back to school for classroom concerns to be addressed
35·1 month agoI hope this goes to court. The UCP needs to be taught a lesson.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Alberta's Smith applauds decision to end Ontario tariff ad campaign, urges diplomacy
7·1 month agoPretty much! Crazies like Smith being in favour of something is a pretty good indication that it’s probably awful.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Smith Reveals Meeting with the US Heritage Foundation After Trump Win
19·2 months agoFucking disgusting. I really hope they get their asses handed to them in the next election. I’ve heard there are some rural communities that are dissatisfied with the UCP, but not sure if there are enough of them.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Alberta premier blames Ottawa for Imperial Oil job cuts, but experts say it's a global trend
20·2 months agoAnd the UCP can’t afford to pay teachers…
If only Alberta had a government that provided subsidies and tax cuts to oil companies to keep jobs in the province!

Technology@beehaw.org•Apple demands EU repeal the Digital Markets Act
27·2 months agoI can think of no higher praise for the DMA!
Ah yes, a fine example of small government free market.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Federal government pulls plug on home retrofit loan program
19·3 months agoThis is so stupid! I made use of this a couple years ago to replace some windows and install solar panels. This resulted in more than a dozen people coming to my home over several months doing various bits of work. Presumably they were all getting paid.
This wasn’t free money and I do have to pay it all back. I would not have done the project otherwise. It made sense to me that at 0% I do get a slight discount taking inflation into account, but it was a good chunk of money injected into the economy now that was paid to Canadians. And, a bunch of that is going to make it back to the government in the form of income tax.
I don’t understand why they’d cancel the program other than the government caving to conservative morons who bitch about spending and don’t understand economics.

Canada@lemmy.ca•U.S. ambassador 'disappointed' with anti-American sentiment in Canada
53·3 months agoAs a Canadian I am going to say this as politely as I can: “Get fucked!”

Canada@lemmy.ca•Alberta to become 1st province with mandatory 'citizenship markers' on driver's licences
21·3 months agoReducing red tape by creating more bureaucracy and wasting money.
LED? Luxury! 😁
I had one board with an improperly loaded power supply and I could tell what it was doing by the pattern and pitch of the squeal.
It did have a debug UART though, but I did come to find the sound pretty useful too!
