I just switched my .ca domains to canspace.ca. They were the chespest I found for Canadian domains. Had to contact them, they had a fast response time and they were helpful. I had a .cc domain too, but I decided I wasn't renewing it and swapped for a .ca instead.

Please arm chair general, let's invest in drones and send you specifically to patrol our northern waterways. I'd like to see you intercept a Russian or American vessel violating our territorial waters with your drones.

I don't say that drones are bad, it's just 2 entirely different tools.

Libertarianism has roots in socialism. The term has been coopted by anarcho capitalists. You're right with your analysis IMO. You can't be free with authoritarian politics and/or authoritarian economy. Capitalism is very authoritarian.

Its also that the difference in cost would be minimal. I bought an adept and printed my own parts. Best trackball IMO. I would just like a bluetooth one for traveling.

I'm looking into this also. The closest I found is Siyuan notes. I'm trying to setup the sync during the trial period.

You're right that this is the thinking. But it's so wrong though. I'm quite sure that a strong bike network reduces cars on the road, aiding car congestion. But you're right that it's not what people perceive.

That is actually very useful. I'm saving that for later.

Yeah, I wasn't close for a picture and I didn't know how to explain it (English isn't my main language). Just has to remember to take a picture next time I went to the bathroom 😆

The side of the toilet paper. My best friend is a mad men and puts it on the wrong side. He always changes it whenever he goes to the toilet somewhere.

Its just funny, my gf made a frame specifically for him in our bathroom and at one point we duck taped the shit out of the toilet paper dispenser so he wouldn't be able to change it. Made everyone laugh.

I'm not the one who mixes them up... The one I replied to was presenting RCV as a panacea that would help with this party voting when in fact it entrenches the most popular party and remove most chances of other party to ever win an election.

If you want smaller parties to win, RCV isn't the solution, you need proportional representation. You can combine both though, but that's not what was implied in the comment that I replied to.

No, nothing in ranked choice voting says that it becomes proportional representation. Ranked choice voting in the same first past the post system still stays first past the post. If you want proportional representation, it's not it.

This is a debated topic where I live. Our current PM would love ranked choice voting because it would solidify their position, kill most changes of a conservative victory and eliminate any chance of most other parties to have a meaningful impact on the government. That's why he abandoned the electoral reform because every commity and experts said that it would be way worse for democracy.

 

I'm looking for a new light for EUC riding. I currently have a SP36 which I find too big and heavy and also a thrunite TC15 that lacks throw and uses a micro USB that I dislike. A buddy of mine uses a Fenix TK16 v2 and it seems to be a good balance of flood and throw, but I dislike the buttons. I really like the features of my SP36 and the single button.

I need good flood and medium throw in order to see further ahead. I looked at hank lights and I'm quite interrested, but I'm new to all this. Through my research, I think a D1K might be a good format. I saw a few people riding EUC that said the D4Sv2 with XPL-HI is best, but this emitter isn't offered anymore.

What do you suggest?
