New to the Linux community here; why is a valve owned Linux OS better than any other massive company OS. Like if Microsoft released their own Linux OS, would it be good suddenly?

At the end of the day, we don't want our OS's big company owned right?

This comment here is peak Linux, and a perfect example of that xkcd comic.

99% of people probably couldn't even tell you what a syntax is. Let alone how it's relevant to using Linux

Cons : we want lower taxes.

Libs: ok tax break?

Cons: not like that! 😡

Federal not provincial.

Obviously this is a vote bribe, just looking at the wording of the press release it's written for Christian conservatives.

Specifically making Christmas trees part of the tax break?

As someone who is voting left already, I'm just happy to get the tax break. But if this is the thing that causes enough cons to not vote PP, I'll take the budget cuts.

Under the libs at least we might see things like healthcare and affordable housing.

Hey, that's pretty neat!

Yes this is all happening. We have an election coming up too and it's looking like it might be what a majority of albertans want.

If you get charged for trespassing at night you didn't just walk onto private property, it's probably going along with some of the other charges like voyeurism or sexual assault.

Change my mind, if you fall under any of these charges you shouldn't get to legally change your name.

Go by a different name, sure whatever. But yeah your driver license gets to say your dead name. You fucked up.

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe trespassing at night is being thrown around left right and center. But I doubt it.

Legitimately, how do you? Without prior knowledge of the direction you are facing and the sun is right above you or you can't see it.

Cardinal directions have always been hard for me and I'm only now just starting to use them out of job necessity.

Left and right takes a second most of the time, ask me to look north and it's going to be a long while.

If I'm somewhere new or lost like op, it's just cruel to say "go west"

Right, so how about $12.50 for $25gb?

Is there actually a sizeable population that needs 100gb? Maybe there is a small use case, but I have yet to meet one of these people.

This week's sourdough Sunday, I wasn't able to pay too much attention to their proofing this week and I overfed my starter the night before. Oops!

 

Something I want to get going here on a weekly basis! Make your own post with a picture of your sourdough starter! I'm hoping to make sundays Sourdough Sundays so if you bake sourdough yourself, let's post some beautiful (or maybe not so!) Loafs tomorrow!

FAQs:

-Is it really that windy?

Yes! We average a 16-20km wind year round! You get used to it quite quickly, The wind is much worse in the less developed communities in the deep west and south.

-Lethbridge ranked really high on the crime index! Is it dangerous?

While Lethbridge and Area has a high rate of crime per capita, most of the reported crime is petty theft or trespassing. Unlike the larger cities in Alberta, Lethbridge has little to no violent crime. I wouldn't leave my car unlocked.

-How expensive is it to live in Lethbridge?

While it varies from area to area, overall Lethbridge was recently rated as one of the cheapest places to live in Canada!

Buyers: A new house in one if the new communities will probably start around $500,000-$600,000, whereas a house in the old north can go for less than $200,000.

Renters: Students can likely find lots of rooms available nearby the college or university for $600-$800 (?)/ month. Basement suites usually run in the $1000-$1500(?)/ month range and for a full unit I would expect to pay $1600-$2400/month.

These numbers are from my own experience over the last few years, if anyone has more recent number feel free to comment and I will update!

-North, South and West?

Lethbridge is broken up into 3 main sections, each with their own advantages and drawbacks. The North and South are separated from the west by a large coulee and the Old Man River down in the coulee is tones of public parkland!

-How is public transportation?

Comparatively to a larger city, our public transportation is pretty terrible. You will need to budget at least 30 minuets to get anywhere on the same side of the city as you and at least an hour if you want to cross the bridge.
