Well, in terms of amount of snow, northern Ontario probably has more. But in terms of snow-related recreation, BC has more skiing and snowboarding opportunities since there are way more mountains. Ontario is more suited to ice skating, snowshoeing, snowmobiling (AKA skidooing), and sometimes tubing.

What about it? It’s another software. Did you mean to reply to the original commenter?

Ideology? He’s passing laws that are killing and torturing people.

Women are dying outside of hospitals that are too scared of being sued to treat them. Immigrants are being sent to Guantanamo Bay. Trans people are being systematically erased from government documents and having their passports confiscated.

These are real things that irreparably harm, not just ideas.

Have you looked into KiCAD? It’s FOSS and Linux-first.

If you like remote, consider northern Ontario. You don’t even have to get super north for the population to plummet. The area is also incredibly beautiful, but so is BC and they don’t get the same snow (there’s so much snow, oh god…).

I’d call it plausibly deniable catfishing.

They are presenting themselves as a specific person without explicitly saying so, leaving you with less to stand on (in their mind, not in actual reality) when you claim that they are not who they say they are, because they didn’t say that the photo/audio was of them.

It’s pretty obvious to anyone with a brain that if your avatar is of a specific woman and you are using a feminine voice, that you at least think of yourself as a feminine person and identify at least a little bit with the imagery of the avatar.

So… for what other reason could they be using these photos and audio? Not many other reasons come to mind, so Occam’s razor (i.e., the simplest answer is most likely) applies, in my mind.

I’m voting against him later today. LFG Ontario, we can’t allow more of this.

You’re still banging on about Anthropic? I used it as an example to make my point (which is that commercial usage of copyrighted works is illegal, nothing about making/distributing copies or uploading or whatever you think you’re talking about).

But you’re up and down this thread bending over backwards to not have a good faith discussion with people who are not lawyers, so it’s incredibly difficult to take you seriously and at face value.

Why does the customer/user matter at all here when they’re not party to the lawsuit? You can have no customers yet and still infringe on copyright by using something for commercial purposes when you’re not licensed to do so. That’s how licenses work.

Of course, that limits the damages since there arguably hasn’t been any harm (which doesn’t make it legal), so lawsuits aren’t usually filed at that point; it’s usually a cease and desist. Also, I don’t have to argue anything. I’m not a lawyer.

I can show whatever movie I want at my house with my friends and that’s legal, but if I charge $10 to show it, that’s not legal. I don’t give a shit, because I pirate everything and show it to whoever I want for free, but that’s the law as written.

I would have to guess that your apartment is being heated by radiating heat from other apartments (probably below you) as well as insulated by good quality walls and windows, and then this is supplemented by radiators when deemed necessary by some kind of sensor.

It’s also possible you have underfloor heating if you live in a newer apartment in a country where that’s common. But it wouldn’t be my first assumption.

I was constipated for the first time at 15/16. Didn’t want to say anything. Not saying anything didn’t help and I suffered in pain for several hours.

My advice to you: ask for help before it gets worse and more painful. Your parents will laugh but you’ll get over it.

Hm, while almost all of the pet subreddits I used to visit allowed grief posts (which is what I thought you were complaining about), none seemed to have a problem with people showcasing their pets’ corpses in photos.

Reddit’s moderation must have descended to total dogshit or maybe there’s one mod common to all these pet subreddits that’s just really weird.

Receiving a copy of a copyrighted work (from anywhere) and using it for commercial purposes when the license doesn’t cover that usage (or simply doesn’t exist) is, in fact, illegal. This is why Anthropic was sued last year.

So you can get promoted and then fired at any time for 1-2 years afterwards? Sounds like a shit setup. And maybe a way to easily purge people (outside of the Trump nonsense).

Well, people in general seem to be more vocal when something isn’t going right compared to when everything is perfect and amazing.

Let’s also remember that the internet is not entirely reflective of real life, that people exaggerate, and that we only have the perspective of the person speaking/writing at a specific point in time.

I’m interested in learning whether that’s even legal considering that discriminating based on gender identity is explicitly against the Charter.

In my country you also require a valid reason for doing so, you can’t just randomly sack someone

In the US you can be fired at any time for any reason (or no reason), including “I’m having a bad day and I don’t like you.” Randomly sacking people is Trump’s thing, he had a show about it and everything.

Why do Americans always think everything is about them? Just because you hear about Canada in 2 different contexts at the same time doesn’t mean they’re related. Get over yourself.

The US is one of the only countries in the world where citizens are taxed even when they don’t live there (and haven’t for many years). If you don’t pay taxes on your way out but you have to visit for any reason, cops can arrest you when you re-enter.
