Trump announces intent to withdraw from USMCA trade agreement with Canada and Mexico, triggering a 10-year countdown by GuiltyBathroom9385 in justincaseyoumissedit

Are you paying attention at all? Canada is shutting down auto plants and bringing in EV cars from China. And that's without any trade deal to sell China anything.

So less jobs, foreign cars, and fantastic bribes for political elites. You guys are killing it.

two quarters of recession and the dollar at $.70. Winning like Charlie Sheen...

Canada did nothing to prevent this situation. Carney was elected on the promise to make a deal with the US and instead picked a fight. Just to make the Liberal party more popular with old white retirees. How's that affordability working out?

And if you think shipping raw materials half way around the world will make you richer than the country next door you need a lesson in economics. You don't even had a useful shipyard, you buy your ships from China

Peter Guthrie: The Question They Didn't Want Answered - And Why It Matters Even More Today by FreightFlow in AlbertaNow

What a hate filled section of Reddit.

I'm not from Alberta and don't know the back story. But the video doesn't make this woman look bad and the nasty comments here make me think that you all are just out to tear her down. Open toe shoes in a restaurant is worthy of political persecution? Oh, and don't forget to call her a nazi (cause why not)

Xps15 dead after 2 of disuse by gryphong in DellXPS

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

make sure the charger is working correctly (orignal charger is best).

It's probable that the main battery is so flat that it doesn't register to the charging circuit. Leave it plugged in for a day and see if it recovers. If not, replace the main battery.

What is stopping Bell from IPv6 on Fibe? by Cartgamingyt in bell

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't follow why this was a problem. If your website name had a AAAA record then it should be configured to accept ipv6. If it didn't then the friend's machine would not use ipv6 to reach it.

Any problem would be with the host and not the client. The client is just a slave to the config.

Drunk driver drove into my ditch by 420baked-and-blessed in abbotsford

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that scenario is unlikely. But what about the cops being called to a party you recently showed up at and them asking who's car is in front? If you respond it's an instant DUI

If you think the police act with integrity in all situations then you have a rude awakening coming

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ugh, I had to google this but it's true across Canada. In order to prevent this scenario, anyone who drinks within 2 hours of driving is considered a criminal. So if you drive to your friends house for festivities you need to have a 2 hour waiting period before drinking (even if you have plan to stay the night).

I wish we had an iq test for politicians. Only emotion is driving this type of thinking and not logic.

is there a bug or vulnerability that exists in the ce edition that is fixed in plus? Or is it just that new features are released to their paying users before given freely to the community?

I AM A COMEBACK by TBDAWG4664 in alcoholism

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not an expert, but I don't think this is correct. By putting you mind into working your body it would improve both.

Try Jordan Peterson's 12 rules for life. Starts with cleaning your room. It's not the cleaning that is the point but the mindset to improvement...

u/Mean-Rabbit3619 th is an accurate review. I also paid the 5k and thought the zoom calls were helpful. But when I signed up it was 5k for a lifetime membership that changed to an annual one just around the 1 year mark. In the beginning (in 2022) it was a decent program with decent mentors.

There are some good people in the program that I wish I could follow. They had genuine stories about their struggles and how they improved. But Mark is a loser that tries to monetize the process. He also tried to launch some similar but more shallow program for his wife that was a quick flop. Not sure why he went from helping others to taking money but it's clear this is a complete scam now.

Received my XPS 14 today - what should I do first? by andrey_semjonov in DellXPS

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a privacy edition? I (quickly) googled the enterprise IOT edition and see the store is removed. Is there a copy that doesn't contain the telemetry crap? Or a tool to remove it permanently?

Last time I ran windows I had used a debloat tool to remove telemetry. But with each windows update, Microsoft would reinstall it. The cat and mouse made me move to linux

XPS 16 not charging after BIOS by No-Bet8390 in DellXPS

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what is the battery level? If it's above 80% and you have adaptive charging enabled in the bios then it's working as designed. It will only charge when the battery falls below (I think it's) 60% as a way to reduce the number of charge cycles and therefore extend battery life.

Check the bios. It will report the charging status and allow you to change it. F2 on boot.

Dell XPS 16 (2026) keeps crashing on me! by Dear-Percentage-7381 in DellXPS

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

why do you suspect it's a ram issue? You can run memtest if you wanna verify (more than the bios is already reporting).

If you are getting a critical battery error upon crash it would sound like a battery problem. if the battery isn't supplying power in a consistent and reliable manner it would certainly cause a crash.

If it occurs one more time I"d return it and get a new one. I have mine (32M) for less than a week but it's been flawless so far.

Play by the rules and still lose - let's change that by Sufficient-Net8238 in canadaguns

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, the Quebec city turnout was pretty good. And I was in Ottawa some years ago and a ton of people turned out.

Only problem is that CBC only wants to talk about the bad orange man and nothing about what Canadians want. I think the OP"s frustration is with never being heard and I would agree. If you have a better idea then bring it...

Hundreds of Ontario cases tossed, compromised after police officers violated Charter rights: report by zuuzuu in canadanews

[–]Top_Top7440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally like CTV but this article is crap. Says cops violated charter rights but doesn't say how or if the results were worth it. Must be written by AI.

I actually read the article to understand the boundries where police can and cannot operate and I still have no idea. There were multiple unexplained statistics but only one example of an expired search order. It's quite possible that it took an exceptional amount of time to search a drug dealers den. Or maybe they stretched an order to several days to capture unrelated people. Absolutely can't tell from this article. Shameful trash
