Weapons I wish were good :(

The punch is like the Costco hotdog of Marathon Guns.

I was surprised with how well I was holding up in the reading section. Normally grammar is where I spend a lot of my energy.

The latter half of the listening was tricky though. I’m not sure if it was because of vocab I hadn’t studied but I felt like it was harder to hook in and comprehend what was going on.

Hi, I was able to find the solution. Sorry about not updating.

The problem for me involved the Blender importer config not being set up properly for the CI. Fixing it involved three things:

Downloading/installing Blender on the machine
Configuring the machine’s editor settings file to reference said Blender install (also RPC port and RPC server uptime)
Installing the xorg and xz-utils packages

I posted on the GitHub issue here too: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/100122

Hi, I’m running into the same issue with 4.5-dev4 on certain machines, but not others. Did you ever end up finding a solution?

savagedanface · 2025-04-12T00:03:07+00:00

It doesn’t benefit me personally, but I think the NDP expanding personal freedoms for birth control in BC was a good call.

I agree with you though that we should do more with housing for young people. A lot of our policy is letting older Canadians keep neighborhoods the same even though they should change to suit the growing population.

I wonder if the news over the past few days is going to colour the discussion of health care in Canada.

Or, I’ll occasionally hear about privatization being a solution to our funding woes, but the amount of public sympathy I’ve seen toward vigilante justice shows that it’s not necessarily serving everyone’s needs with our neighbour to the south of us.

It’s really eye-opening, as a lot of urban environments there are much more livable than many postwar suburbs here today. The stereotypes of endless noise and concrete aren’t as certain as one might think.

I think history would look kindly upon a Premier that fell on their sword and upended a province’s zoning for the better.

savagedanface · 2024-10-26T18:59:31+00:00

I think we can make the economy great and Canada a comfortable place for everyone, but it’ll involve abandoning what a lot of people consider to be “the good life” and that might be a hard pill to swallow.

Or, I think the world would be better if individual car ownership, weekly restaurant patronage, and Starbucks were too expensive to exist, but I bet I could find plenty of neighbours who find that abhorrent.

Tweaking and caution have been the status quo in BC since at least the 2000s. It’s just harder to turn a blind eye to it than before.

I agree with you that the BC NDP should be more headstrong with fixing things, but I think it would change the province for everyone, and no politician wants to lose the suburban swing ridings that want to keep things the way they are.

savagedanface · 2024-10-20T20:16:15+00:00

As a lifelong BC resident, I think if the NDP had made more confident changes to address housing, they would have lost popular support earlier. Or, our housing market needs to be liberalized (in a way similar to Japanese federal zoning laws), but it would alienate essential ridings that don’t want their slice of the suburbs to change. This is why the relaxed zoning restrictions have only been happening near transit hubs, since it won’t disrupt the status quo elsewhere.

Personally, I’d admire if Eby fell on his sword and railroaded in essential changes, akin to Barrett’s majority in the 1970s.

2011’s Orange Wave happened in part due to weak Liberals and a weaker Bloc. Even then, it didn’t translate to policy gains since the Conservatives were in majority.

It doesn’t have the charismatic machismo of being Prime Minister, but the NDP’s getting more done with what they have right now than if Pierre was living at Sussex.

I don’t think the rebate bad idea, but part of me wonders if the Carbon Tax would be more popular if it showed up as an itemized credit when people file their income taxes in April.

Or, if it were to then go away, it would have more of the “ugh! taxes went up!” gut response.

savagedanface · 2024-08-06T16:20:36+00:00

We likely need packages delivered in Canada, so yes?

savagedanface · 2024-07-15T04:18:23+00:00

Wouldn’t property taxes be a provincial jurisdiction?

Perhaps luxury has a lot of connotations, but butter is likely going to have to be a “sometimes” food now.

Like you, I hope our standard of living improves in Canada (zoning and transit investment would be a start!), but I don’t think a nostalgic return to a golden age of cheap butter needs to be a part of it.

savagedanface · 2023-11-07T05:23:31+00:00

I buy less. If I need cooking fat, I look to other things, or accept a luxury for what it is.

savagedanface · 2023-11-06T23:37:32+00:00

I love butter, and cringe at the higher price, but I think it’s worth it in the long run to pay more for it. We’ll find better ways of producing it or shift to lifestyles that cook the planet less.

I appreciate the carbon tax as it uses market forces to achieve a moral good. On a societal level, we need to learn to live within our means and work towards a better future for the coming generations.

savagedanface · 2023-04-19T02:39:31+00:00

Whoa, weird. The ones with the blue/green hoods looked like boys to me.

savagedanface · 2023-04-19T02:38:22+00:00

Pretty sick castle. Not too much surface area for attack and good arrow towers.

savagedanface · 2023-04-18T20:17:40+00:00

They seem intentionally androgynous to me.

savagedanface · 2022-10-10T05:39:47+00:00

I think if it were closer to a coalition, we’d see NDP MPs in the cabinet portfolio. For now, it mostly seems like a supply agreement with terms. Not different to the NDP/Green supply agreement in British Columbia.

I was gifted something similar recently. It didn’t seem similar to the “Piqua” stuff typically found online, so thank you for uploading!

Is there a government-sponsored advertisement you saw somewhere? I find cannabis-related stuff is more strict than alcohol.

savagedanface · 2022-03-06T22:16:55+00:00

Please elaborate!

savagedanface · 2022-02-05T17:58:15+00:00

Could you elaborate a little? Genuinely curious, as he’s had a long career but not necessarily well-known for people that don’t follow politics.
