The ring of fire is mining, which is required for EV, which is the "green" industry of the future they are always talking about. We build lithium batteries for EV and renewable usage; which displaces oil usage, which removes smog, and hopefully should be more efficient in the long term.

Indigenous have their hands out for free cash as they always do, and that kills this industry like it does everything else in Canada. Hence why we are second to last in per capita GDP growth in the entire OECD. How poor do we need to be before some cynicism kicks in and we stop cosplaying, this is peoples livelihoods we're wrecking.

The economic troubles are immigration. What happens is you have QE and 0% interest rates, to deal with Covid, then you have a labor shortage and "quiet quitting"; as per the phillips curve in economics where inflation and employment are inversely coorelated. Then you have mass immigration to fill the temporary QE induced labor shortage. Then you have the BoC raising interest rates, even more so than expected given Trumps tariffs. Then you have a reversion to the mean for employment, and a lot more workers that can no longer be absorbed.

So its all excess immigration. We arent meant to drastically distort the market like this to fill temporary lulls or highs in the economy, to hide falling GDP growth and then losing the election. I'm not a mustached villain, I simply have a single mom sister who can barely get by as an education assistant and think what we did is despicable.

are more likely to fall into the lower income groups and less likely to be among employees making over $100,000 a year.

I'd like actual statistics presented in a sane way. Obviously if white people are predominant then it is more likely they would be one of the people making 100k or more, just as they will be more likely to be depressed with their job or suffer a fatal car accident from exhaustion.

 

I use a headless server connected to nothing but an ethernet cable in my basement, and I'd prefer to allow the thing to boot by itself and start up without me needing to unlock the disk encryption every single time I do an update or power back on. Its a Dell 9500t NUC that I'm using it as a server and am wondering whether its possible to encrypt everything still.

I do generally use docker containers, so could I potentially encrypt just the containers themselves, assuming I'm worried about a smash and grab rather than someone keeping the machine powered up and reading my ram?

China is stockpiling coal. Because it has an advantage of storability and is non-volatile. They also keep opening coal plants.

If we assume China will be producing our goods for the next 30 years then its safe to say coal will be in demand. If we do ban their imports because we decided to actually do something about climate change, besides importing people from low carbon areas and pushing urban sprawl via regressive zoning laws, then our entire economy will collapse due to rising interest rates.

The CBC said it was based on a fake story, that there was no discovery of mass indigenous graves.

Meanwhile the housing minister says prices shouldn't fall. Which of course means they dont want supply of multifamily homes to increase enough for prices to fall.

Immigration is also still well above housing completions so why would prices fall?

I'd love to use it but virus total always flags it as a virus and I get too scared.

I do remember an election debate they hosted with an entire hour spent on a fake indigenous grave story, with 2 minutes to discuss the cost of living to ask Singh why he wants to wipe out boomers retirement vehicle we call housing. To say its not biased seems a bit silly from my perspective.

Trump just today literally blamed Trudeau for ousting Russia from the G7, in 2014. Which Russia was ousted for attacking Ukraine. Yet Carney sat there taking it, a trademark elbows up moment.

Egypt learned from Kuwait and Lebanon I'd assume.

When the PM and the new housing minister says prices can't fall because it is peoples retirement vehicle then we all know this will be an ineffective waste of tax dollars.
