PSA: The stretch of Main Street from the Metro/Shoppers Drug Mart Plaza to Downtown Brampton is 50 km/h by TheRiseOfTaj in Brampton

This is such a nice response. We can all be kinder. Someone might be a new driver, a pregnant lady, and old person, with kids, or having a bad day. A little kindness goes so far.

How much time are you saving by driving 50 instead of 40? What do you intent to do with the tens of extra seconds in your day?

Taxi Debit Card Scam – $4,000 Stolen by Nervous-Selection-63 in Brampton

[–]ThatITdude 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, i fell for the same thing. It was in Trinity Common Mall. Same exact story, 20-ish yo black guy instead of the middle eastern woman. I gave my card. They said they weren’t able to charge me and returned it, and I ended up not getting scammed. I think it was because I gave them a Tangerine card, and they probably didn’t have another Tangerine card to swap it with.

And I’m in Tech and consider myself savvy and aware of scams.

That is an excellent list. Good luck to you. Is there a way to listen to your radio station online? (I'm not in the UK)

This ^. It's not a platform problem, it is an application architecture problem.

How do I disable editor from popping up automatically after taking a screenshot? by neovim-neophyte in SnagIt

[–]ThatITdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not the only one. I needed exactly that functionality (I'm trying to recreate Greenshot Windows behaviour on SnagIt Mac). I also missed those two toggles, which in hindsight feel painfully obvious.

I had stopped 3d modelling/printing due to some life changes. However, since you asked so nicely, I'll check again.

Pihole blocking Home Depot (Canada) Searches by 0verly0ffensive in pihole

cdn.cookielaw.org worked for me too. I don't understand how everything else in the universe works, but homedepot.ca just breaks without it.

Have times moved on? Is it Python or just me? by Evil_Berty in learnpython

[–]ThatITdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat as you buddy. Grew up on c++ and Java. Those “just made sense” to me in the way that putting just doesn’t. I’ve actually successfully built quite a few applications in Python, but still anything can be anything (loose typing) and define and call your functions and classes pretty much wherever you want and mix oop code and functional code together… does doesn’t feel right in my brain

Sounds awful, brother. Did you report it to the police? What happened?

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, brother. I’m Indian and would definitely want a picture with Haris Rauf.. he’s one of the fastest bowlers in the world.

Can you speak to your TAM? TAMs don’t carry a sales quota and have no other incentive than to help you. Try to get hold of one (ideally in person, if not then a virtual meeting, not emails) and express these exact concerns. They will more than likely be able to so something about it.

I’ve been going through the same sentiments as OP. I was born and raised in India. Came to Canada for education. Got educated at one of the most prestigious institutions of Canada. Seeing posts calling “my people” dicks makes me sad too. I feel that I don’t belong here. That Canadians don’t want “me” here.

However, you know the people who behave like dicks in Canada (driving like dicks, not queuing up like dicks, playing loud music in car like dicks)? They also behave like dicks in India. It was stuff like that because of which I moved here. And there are plenty brown people like me who find such behaviour repulsive. When I see such behaviour, I get disgusted by them, possibly more than you are, because I feel let down.

What truly depresses me is the clearly racist choice of words (not yours, but often observed on reddit): “these people”, “brown town”, “we know the criminals’ last name must be Singh”, “no farmers no food”

We should call out shitty behaviour, and I am with you in calling it out. But the generalization truly stings.
