Setting the record straight on Canada’s ‘productivity crisis’
Setting the record straight on Canada’s ‘productivity crisis’
Economists like to fashion themselves as the “adults in the room.” However, their notion that incomes are determined by productivity is naïve. It ignores the role of power in the determination of distribution.canadiandimension.com
Remember when eating the rich prepare the billionaires like beef steaks and roasts. The multimillionaires like pork, ribs and butt/picnic shoulder. Prepare economists like sausages.
Remember to cook low and slow and don't forget the spices.
Also remember that billionaires arent the ones bailing themselves out with billions in newly minted dollars, in the end they are at the whims of the people you elect.
When even the new housing minister says something as fundamental as housing prices shouldnt fall you know you've messed up, if your goal is to help the poor.
Political campaigns cost a lot of money and billionaires fund the ones that would bail them out directly or indirectly. So billionaires are in fact bailing themselves out. This is why we so often find ourselves in the situation where all candidates are shit and we try voting for the lesser turd. If it were merely a matter of voting, we wouldn't be in this position. Unless this is widely understood and we take the steps needed to counteract it, we'd forever be pointing at either the housing minister, or the voters and ask how could this still be happening. (Actually we won't because the system would collapse when workers eventually revolt, but you get what I'm saying.)
The theory that if we only let large firms fail when they fuck up, things would get better is a fantasy because that changes nothing of significance in who holds power in society. And that's before we think about corporate ownership and how profits are protected during failure. And before we consider that when firms fail, they rarely disappear. Instead they get absorbed, customers, employees and capital by their competitor, creating even bigger firms, now able to exercise higher market power, and their owners even richer. Competition does not lead to a competitive equilibrium outside of rare cases. Instead it leads to consolidation and eventually monopolies or oligipolies.

Charlie Angus: American Dachau
Six months.That's all it took for the Trump regime to make the move from kidnapping people on the street, to threatening to strip political enemies of citizenship, to selling swag celebrating the construction of an American concentration camp.
Six months.
And Republicans say that merch promoting the newly built Alligator Alcatraz concentration camp is "going like hot cakes."
Some detractors have called the camp Alligator Auschwitz, but this may not be the most accurate comparison. Not yet anyway. Because the death camps didn’t just appear; it took years of increasing brutality and degradation before they got to Auschwitz.
It began at Dachau.

Beyond raw horsepower, 7-Zip quietly tightens its handling of several legacy formats. Support for ZIP, CcPIO, and FAT archives has been refined, smoothing edge-case extractions that previously required third-party tools.
Over the years there was a few .zip archives that 7z could not handle for whatever reason. For these cases I had to use another application, but don't know the reason. And my bad to not keeping copies of these files for future testing.

Weird line tearing on KDE
Posting here too as I've not had any responses in the more relevant communities.
Hi there, I've got these really odd issue where certain windows will cause random lines like the one in the screenshot appear on my screen. They will often flicker a bit and will dissapear if I hover my mouse over them. The lines will display what is beneath the window itself. These occour quite frequently and are frankly getting quite annoying to deal with.
Is this a known issue with KDE right now? It does not happen while using Gnome on the same machine + screen. If it matters I am running CachyOS+KDE 6.4.1+AMD.
If there is anythign I can do to fix this then I'd greatly appriciate some pointers!

Linux gave me a brand new laptop
I bought a Lenovo laptop, one from the the bargain bin, 11th gen Intel and 8gb soldered RAM
Even if I reinstalled Windows to make sure all the bloatware was removed, it was almost unusable. At boot I was left with only 800mb free memory, and "Lenovo vantage" kept reappearing automatically like malware. (It's a useless electron app that wastes half a gig of ram to show you on screen when you press caps lock, check driver updates and try to upsell you on extended warranty)
At idle the machine was as loud as a jet, with crystal disk mark always complaining "the nvme drive is over 65°C!!" (I'm guessing from the constant swapping)
Battery life was a disaster, 2 hours at idle with no foreground apps open
I thought that it was the CPU too slow for my use and the RAM not enough, so I was planning to spend some hundreds of euro to buy a new laptop with at least 16gb of RAM.
Then I installed cachyos and because I'm masochist I chose hyprland at the "easy" install screen that asks you which of the 19 available DE you prefer.
After a week of suffering trying to understand all the text configuration files for everything (it was a shock, everything needs the terminal) I'm now getting used to it and... It's like I got a brand new laptop??!?
Memory: clean boot now obviously is reversed situation. I don't have only 800mb of free RAM, the whole system uses only 800mb
Temperatures: by default cachyos is set to show the CPU temperature on waybar, and it's always around 40-45° C. The fan is way quieter. At idle they can even stop, before they were like a hair dryer even after a clean boot
Battery life: astounding. I can't believe that I can use it for a whole afternoon. Accidentally fell asleep and when I came back after two hours it lost only 10% (on idle, screen turn off automatically)
Gaming performance: tried only with casual games but with something like tinytopia I get 60fps on ultra when on windows it was choppy on high

Generated Summary:
Main Topic: The video discusses Peter Thiel's interview where he hesitates when asked if the human race should continue, and Glenn's reaction to Thiel's views on transhumanism, AI, and the potential dangers of unchecked billionaire influence.
Key Points:
- Thiel's Hesitation: The video starts by referencing Peter Thiel's interview where he seemed uncertain about whether humanity should continue.
- Transhumanism and AI: The discussion explores the transhumanist philosophy prevalent in Silicon Valley, focusing on merging humans with technology and AI, as exemplified by Mark Zuckerberg's vision of brain implants.
- Autism and Conformity: Glenn discusses Thiel's perspective on autism, suggesting that it can provide a detachment from societal norms, fostering innovation.
- Billionaire Culture: A significant portion of the video critiques the culture of Silicon Valley billionaires, arguing that their wealth and power, combined with constant flattery, can lead to detachment from reality, dangerous levels of self-confidence, and utopian/dystopian visions for society.
- Essentialism vs. Nihilism: The video touches on the philosophical implications of transhumanism, contrasting it with essentialist views of humanity and raising concerns about the potential destruction of what it means to be human.
- Lack of Debate: Glenn expresses concern about the lack of societal debate and safeguards surrounding the rapid advancement of AI, driven by billionaires with unchecked power.
Highlights:
- Glenn's concern about billionaires' ability to reshape society without proper debate due to their wealth and perceived brilliance.
- The discussion of Thiel's autism and how it might influence his unconventional thinking.
- The comparison of mind-altering drugs to autism as a means of achieving transcendent thought.
- The critique of Mark Zuckerberg's vision of brain implants and the potential implications for humanity.

I forget what the error said. It maybe said that it could not fine new_root or something.
I tried something like the following, by I don't know what it does.

Fair. Again Jews aren't some boogeymen. We bleed the same as everyone else. For a people that make up ~0.5% of the worlds population we really had to put up with stupid motherfuckers and their inane bullshit. Some people are really thick as pigshit.
Again yes I'm calling the nazis thick as pigshite. Murderous they were, but you cannot deny their reasoning makes them look stupid as fuck.
I'm drunk as a skunk so I don't quite see your point but aye
I'm half jewish, I've been all over Israel, what is going on there saddens me so much, to see my Jewish ancestors to escape the holocaust and then to do things like this... Again any self respecting Jew would reject this completely.
Jews =/= Israel
Israel =/= Jews
Criticising Israel =/= Anti-Semitic
And Netanyahu is a fucking war criminal. He deserves to be hung. I hope he gets the Gaddafi treatment
Just beforehand I'm not religious but I am part-Jewish and it's totally okay to call Netanyahu a warmongering facist prick who should rot in jail, because that's what he is. That's just common sense, which apparently a lot of the world is fucking lacking right now (excuse my French)
^^ if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck and all...
You have nothing to apologize for, we are all on this planet together and everyone is allowed to have an opinion. Again yeah, well, Trump is a snake oil salesman. We have our own party in the UK called Reform who are aligned and do exactly the same.
They promise everything but give nothing. In the immortal words of JRR Tolkien, "evil cannot create. It only corrupts". Which is exactly what these morally bankrupt fuckers are doing.
then why are Jewish voices some of the loudest anti Israel voices?

Preventing Asian Citrus Psysllid
I have a small lemon tree that was bought from a local grower and came with the extra bonus of an Asian Citrus Psysllid infestation. The tree is dead now and I'd love to get a new tree, but want to make sure I've done everything I could to prevent a new tree from getting infested by any Psysllid still in the area.
Is there anything I can do to treat my soil or surrounding plants to make sure those little buggers aren't going to keep coming back? I'm in California where the sale of IMIDACLOPRID products is banned, which was previously the primary treatment for this.
In all seriousness, you need to contact your local university agriculture extension. Like right now.
This is a huge problem this generated from unlicensed growers, and they are shipping this all over the country, causing massive outbreaks.
Unless you live in an area with an abundance of Mantids or Wasps, I don't think there are any other means of control aside from harsh pesticides.
Call your local extension immediately, tell them where you got it, and have them come visit to treat if necessary.

Hospitals report a pattern of young riders with serious injuries, often despite age restrictions and helmet lawsIjeoma Ukazu (The Globe and Mail)

She said collisions with motor vehicles is definitely the most dangerous aspect, but in all situations, these scooters require a certain level of skill and balance.
I love how they're going out of their way to not admit this whole article is actually about cars running over kids on scooters.
I hate how much we protect drivers from accountability for their actions. If I go out and stab a kid for no reason I'm in jail for decades. If I run over enough kids on scooters they'll write whole-ass articles arguing that "scooters are unsafe"
It doesn't take a genius to figure out that cars are running over these kids. Kids are naive and trust that cars aren't trying to run then over so they'll make stupid decisions (for our car brained society that lets people drive until they drop dead without annual testing).
Then look at the types of injuries, you're not cracking your skull or lacerating your abdomen falling off a kid's scooter that basically go human running speed (18-30km/h) MAX.
Then we have doctors taking about "sprains" and "concussions" typical falling off your e scooter injuries, but that the worst injuries are car related and it's pretty easy to see what's happening even with the blatant pro car bias this article has.

Changes since the 2025070100 release:
- increase virtual memory reserved for Binder buffers from 1MiB to 8MiB due to Android 16 having a very large Binder transaction scaling up based on the number of apps and profiles which can go beyond the total size limit and break fully booting the OS, which occurred for a tiny number of our Alpha testers (if you were one of the tiny number of Alpha channel testers running into this, you can sideload this release to resolve the issue)
- fix issues with display of the end session button to avoid it being wrongly displayed for Owner or not displayed for secondary users (we may remove this part of the upstream end session UI or make it optional since the functionality is also in the power menu)
- update Pixel USB HAL to Android 16 (this was omitted in the initial port due to needing special handling for our USB-C port and pogo pins control feature)
- always use UTC as the time zone for build date properties
- kernel (6.6): update to latest GKI LTS branch revision
GrapheneOS Foundation Commentary On ICEBlock's False Claims About Push Notifications
ICEBlock is making incredibly false privacy claims for marketing. They falsely claim it provides complete anonymity when it doesn't. They're ignoring both data kept by Apple and data available to the server but not stored. They're also spreading misinformation about Android:Their claims about push notifications on Android compared to iOS are completely false. Both Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) and the Apple Push Notification service (APNs) function in a similar way with similar privacy. However, Android does not force using FCM and apps can use other push systems.
iOS forces uses Apple services including getting apps through Apple where they have a record of which apps each person and account has installed and using their push notification service. Both FCM and APNs have tokens. Android doesn't allow apps to access device IDs. Push tokens aren't device IDs.
Apple and Google can identify devices/users based on push tokens obtained by law enforcement from services. Unlike Google, Apple only recently began requiring warrants:
reuters.com/technology/apple-n…
ICEBlock's claims about this are highly inaccurate and they haven't acknowledged corrections.

What automation processes have you implemented that make your life easier?
It depends on the transit service, and how much their IT people suck. I'm pretty sure there have been multiple attempts to make standardized APIs for this sort of thing, but you shouldn't necessarily expect them to be widely used except maybe in Europe.
Do a web search for "[transit service name] API" and start from there.
Edit: My local transit service apparently publishes a GTFS feed, which may be more widespread than I assumed, but I'm honestly kinda surprised they didn't try to roll their own or something stupid like that.

Among his lengthy criminal record is a conviction of assault with a weapon from 2013 that Crown argued on Friday is very similar to the 2023 event, where Johnson used his car as a weapon, aiming to hit two men he was angry with, but hit a woman instead, breaking her leg.Crown noted that since the 2023 incident, Johnson’s violence has continued, with a conviction of assault and obstruction of a police officer in 2025.

Bit confused, what would they even do with a report of downvote? Doesn’t make sense.
Plus don’t even understand why someone cares so much about downvoting that they would message you and report it. The upvote/ downvote means seriously nothing. It’s “thin air”.
Put down your device and it has no impact on your live. Continue using Lemmy and it will have no impact on how you use Lemmy.
