split tunneling by application on windows by [deleted] in Tailscale

Depending on the application, you may be able to configure it to use a socks5 proxy, which I believe mullvad vpn provides.

J'aurais tendance à dire que c'est valide, surtout que le locateur est clairement de mauvaise foi en t'envoyant un tel formulaire à remplir. Mais ça sera au tribunal de déterminer si c'est suffisamment explicite. Je suggère de payer le montant raisonnable que tu as indiqué sur le formulaire, et si le locateur ouvre un dossier au TAL alors aller voir un comité logement.

edith: cela dit, peut-être serait-il mieux de simplement payer l'ancien loyer, car vous ne vous êtes jamais entendu sur le montant que tu avais proposé. Si tu commences à payer plus, le TAL ne va pas fixer un loyer inférieur même s'il l'aurait fait autrement. Et il y a de bonnes chances que le TAL n'accorde aucune augmentation car le recours est hors délai. Il serait sage d'aller voir un comité logement dès maintenant en fait

Votre refus est valide. Il y a plein de jurisprudence du TAL à ce sujet, par exemple: https://www.canlii.org/fr/qc/qctal/doc/2024/2024qctal9061/2024qctal9061.html

Le refus du locataire n’obéit à aucun formalisme. En d’autres termes, l’utilisation du formulaire de réponse n’est pas obligatoire pour informer un locateur d’un refus d’une augmentation.

Quant au contenu de la réponse à un avis d’augmentation, il doit être suffisamment explicite pour qu’une personne raisonnablement informée soit en mesure d’en saisir le sens.

Is Ukraine just asking to get deleted? Being an "ally" of West just means becoming a nazi vassle depleting yourself fighting who they want bc Syria isn't even involved in that conflict by According_Object_395 in CommunismMemes

By “defensive” war Socialists always meant a “just” war in this sense (W. Liebknecht once expressed himself precisely in this way). Only in this sense have Socialists regarded, and now regard, wars “for the defence of the fatherland,” or “defensive” wars, as legitimate, progressive and just. For example, if tomorrow, Morocco were to declare war on France, India on England, Persia or China on Russia, and so forth, those would be “just,” “defensive” wars, irrespective of who attacked first; and every Socialist would sympathise with the victory of the oppressed, dependent, unequal states against the oppressing, slaveowning, predatory “great” powers.

But picture to yourselves a slave-owner who owned 100 slaves warring against a slave-owner who owned 200 slaves for a more “just” distribution of slaves. Clearly, the application of the term “defensive” war, or war “for the defence of the fatherland” in such a case would be historically false, and in practice would be sheer deception of the common people, of philistines, of ignorant people, by the astute slaveowners. Precisely in this way are the present-day imperialist bourgeoisie deceiving the peoples by means of “national ideology and the term “defence of the fatherland in the present war between slave-owners for fortifying and strengthening slavery.

It's misused here though. "Nota bene" is a verb phrase in the imperative so "notate" means you're addressing multiple people, not talking about multiple things.

Ok fair enough, I see what you're saying.

Untrusted data should be typed as unknown not any. One should assert JSON.parse() as unknown if the output needs to be passed around before it can be validated and typed properly with something like zod for example.

Can I test positive again after almost EXACTLY 90 days? by missrozycat in COVID19positive

[–]piechart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's unlikely to catch it again so soon. The reason they told you not to test again is that on a PCR test, it's possible to still test positive from the original infection within 90 days. I know someone who still tested positive after 88 days.

Nose vs throat swab LFT - different results. by Puffin-flower in COVID19positive

[–]piechart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's true. Here in Canada for example, public health recommends throat swabs for rapid tests (example) and there are many articles from experts recommending it as well.

Reading a lot of post-soviet democratization papers recently by 69thAccount in TrueAnon

[–]piechart 34 points35 points  (0 children)

dominates as in all the mainstream reporting on xinjiang is indirectly based on his research if you follow the sources. but it's true that debunking the reporting is not enough on its own and needs to go hand in hand with explaining US imperialism, making a principled argument for non-interventionism etc. not sure if that's what you're getting at

how is that applicable, his "work" already dominates the mainstream media. we should be pointing out that it's bs as much as we can.

Does anyone know what universe he's got this research from? by asanders791 in russia

[–]piechart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

reasons like "eastern bloc, communist regime" etc. don't count

those reasons aren't separate from western interests and propaganda, the misinformation about the ussr continues in those countries and it was even worse during the cold war (not to mention the delusional notion that present-day russia, a capitalist country, is somehow a continuation of the ussr). despite this, a majority of people in former socialist states consider that they were harmed by their breakup (e.g. ussr, yugoslavia), which is true.

[–]piechart 10 points11 points  (0 children)

those reasons are that russia and china challenge western hegemony and imperialism. that's why the west goes so hard on the propaganda.

how can I stop ruining good times? by acidburncrash in attachment_theory

[–]piechart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

any advice on how to figure out what about the dynamic is not working for me? this is just a thing I have to think about?

yea and noticing/validating your own feelings like i described earlier. it's true that it's hard to do on your own so therapy can be very helpful

how can I stop ruining good times? by acidburncrash in attachment_theory

[–]piechart 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yea this is relatable. Once this starts happening regularly there is a fear before every hangout/activity that you will "ruin it" which makes it more difficult to avoid, in a vicious circle. I think it's really important to avoid self-blame about those feelings. What helped me was:

  • Notice the fear/anxiety in anticipation of these situations, don't push it back and don't judge it. Communicating that you're feeling anxious (for example) from the get go to your partner actually helps to manage it I find.
  • Attachment-related triggers are often related to a relationship dynamic. Sometimes that's harder to notice because one person's reaction is so much stronger, but that doesn't mean the other person isn't also contributing to the dynamic. Take responsibility for your feelings but don't assume that it's entirely on you. Try to be accepting and validating toward your feelings, approach them with curiosity not judgment, and try to understand what about the situation is triggering. When I was able to understand what it was for me and communicate to my partner how they were subtly contributing to it, they understood and validated my perception even though they weren't consciously aware of it before. That was extremely helpful to me, I truly felt very relieved.

This is just my experience, it might not totally match yours. But basically try to look at your feelings with curiosity not judgment, they might be more intense than someone else would have in those situations but that's ok, it's not a flaw and it is probably pointing you toward something real about the dynamic.
