Thanks. Good to know.

I did hear back from KDE, and they say this bug is being looked at in the Alpine Linux gitlab site: https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/15496

Thank you for your straight forward and very succinct answer. I did peruse that site, but became confused by the various options that I found in it. If you could decipher the information on the site, and provide an actual link to where exactly I report bugs for postmarketOS packages, that would be appreciated.

Here’s some facts and tips about repayment plans with the landlord: https://www.acto.ca/production/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/PaymentPlan_Tipsheet_tenants.pdf (taken from this site).

The best thing to do is to pay off the rent and arrears. If it’s possible to follow the “rosy” rent plan you put forward, then do it. But, if things don’t go well and the landlord begins to pursue eviction, then best to contact a legal clinic: https://www.legalaid.on.ca/legal-clinics/ You may wish to do that anyway.

That did not happen to me; so I’m guessing it’s a coincidence.

I’m quite impressed with Singh on this. He’s been speaking out for a cease fire and not avoiding the issue.

On a somewhat related note, I’m very impressed by the CNN interview that Queen Rania of Jordan gave on the topic. https://www.queenrania.jo/en/media/interviews/queen-ranias-interview-cnn’s-becky-anderson

Paywall. Here’s an article on the CBC on the same subject.

Paywall. You really should program this bot to prefer the similar articles from the CBC (and basically leave out The Star). Here’s the CBC article on the same issue: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/ontario-retail-winery-tax-removal-bill-1.6969214

When asked about a perceived ignorance in computers, the judge proclaimed, “I’m not ignorant about computers! In fact, just last week I finished Space Quest, and I’m now getting through Leisure Suit Larry!” The judge’s report, written using WordPerfect 5.1, is expected to be released soon.

Paywall. But, from the brief blurb I could see, it looks like Chow is doing her best to reach out to people. This states she met up with John Baird, likely to get him to help advocate for better funding for Toronto. Seems like a good move before meeting up with Doug Ford, which the article states will happen next week.

I no longer buy any mock meat. Veggies that are unprocessed (with tofu as the lone exception since soy beans are kinda rough) are my choice now. So this doesn’t bother me.

I check into Reddit once in a while, but I mostly hang out here now.

Nuclear costs a huge amount. It does produce waste. There are still safety concerns regarding nuclear power, which only increase as our reliance upon it increases. Investing in renewable energy makes more sense.

If you’re interested in helping to get this motion passed, then…

FairVote Canada is organizing people, who live in or near ridings that have a Liberal MP, to visit these Liberal MPs and advocate for voting in favour of this Motion (specifically, Motion M-86).

One thing I find confusing is the notification bell icon. I notice that even if I check it, it still registers the same number of notifications that it had done previously. This number never seems to go down. What’s with that?

The European Commission is being sued by environmental campaigners over a decision to include gas and nuclear in an EU guide to “green” investments.

Eight national and regional Greenpeace organisations including France, Germany and EU office in Brussels are asking the court to rule the inclusion of gas and nuclear invalid.

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/apr/18/eu-faces-legal-action-gas-nuclear-green-investments-guide-european-commission

I totally support Greenpeace in this. Neither nuclear nor gas should be considered a “green” investment. Ia Aanstoot, the “18 year old climate activist”, is wrong to support the European Commission’s stance on this.

Which means she opposes what Ia Anstoot is saying. Thunberg does not view nuclear as a renewable in and of itself, and thus, like Greenpeace, she opposes EU Commission’s decision to include nuclear power in its classification system for sustainable finance (link).
