Why? 4k is already at the limit of what your eyes can resolve unless you have an enormous screen.

The past few years the CBC has been leaning harder right but I think that they may have been trying to butter up the conservatives because of the, then, impending conservative win. There has been a lot of anti-electric car and anti-heat pump pieces in the past 2 years.

Canadian farmers are allowed to use antibiotics and hormones in food animals, and tap water is chlorinated and fluorinated…

Virtual Box is probably the easiest to get started but lately I have been using LXC containers because they are a very similar to VMs but with less overhead.

You missed my point, vegan meat products don’t mimic meat, they mimic unhealthy crap that already does not taste like meat. Time and resources would be much better spent manufacturing and marketing traditional vegan foods (literally everything other than meat analog) it a way that makes them easy and appealing as an alternative to meat not as a 1:1 replacement.

No idea where you are in your trek, but if you can find the time learn how to use virtual machines (or use an old laptop) so you can test stuff without fear of breaking a machine you rely on.

When I want to use a new package or make a change to my setup I will do it in a virtual machine as many times as it takes until I get it right, then use my notes to do it on my daily driver. I went from a Windows only user to daily driving Linux in about a year thanks to keeping good notes.

Windows still hasn’t decided what it’s configuration windows should look like, there are still dialogs with the 30 year old W95 design language. I doubt that they were able to put together a seamless gaming UI over that past x months or years.

A crooked politician, in Canada?!?

Vegan meat is a fools errand, you end up making something that tastes like a processed mcnugget and has 10x the ingredients compared to just using animal meat. I would rather see (less processed) meat alternative foods that stand up on their own rather than trying to emulate the flavour and texture of meat :/

Water is wet, management is parasitic, any other world shattering news this week?

any more than it already has

So many people I know get fuming mad at the idea of higher taxes because they think their income is going to be given to the poor. It’s the same ‘one good move away from being a millionaire’ mentality that drives voters in red states.

I propose the ‘forfeit your citizenship if you and your grandfather are nazis’ bill.

The experiment known as democracy has failed. Roll out the guillotines, we’re going back to the dark ages!

Dear, America. As a Canadian, I have never met another Canadian who thought that the USA had anyone’s interests in mind but their own. The only shocking part of this is that every level of your government was able to fail so completely at the same time.

Body mass index (BMI) is an anthropometric index that is commonly used in the medical setting and is a factor in assessing various disease risks but its origins are unknown by many. More importantly, BMI does not properly assess body fat percentage and muscle mass or distinguish abdominal fat from gluteofemoral fat, which is important to note because abdominal fat is associated with insulin resistance, metabolic disease, and cardiovascular complications. Using a less accurate index to assess the relationship between weight and disease risk is conceptually invalid because the use of BMI ultimately trickles into patient treatment, preventive medicine, and overall health outcomes.

Completing the quote we find that there is a more important aspect to BMI than its common use.

Time for a historical metrology search!
