I stopped taking the bus when my city decided to reduce the transit time on all routes. The reduced my transit time from 20 minutes to 45, including the 20 minutes waiting outside for a transfer.

It's a 25 minute bike ride or 12 minute drive on average.

I'm tall enough I can't stand up on any plane I've been on in the last several years....

In a CT you just send a mean tweet and the glass will break. Or at least something will.

What's the age spread between you and the oldest sibling then?

Gotta admit, without the context of some of the replies here I didn't get it it either. I bought a brand-new 2019 in late 2020 that had been on the lot for close to a year because they didn't try to sell the manual version of my car. I walked in and asked if they had a manual. No complaints, been a reliable thing ever since.

Even better re using Linux. I just made an assumption there.

GTA VI you mean?

Also unfortunately Windows is getting more locked down all the time, with newfangled things like kernel-level DRM and such.

Still way better than the consoles, though, so keep up the good fight.

But those were Ontario conservatives, not good God fearing Alberta conservatives.

The UCP didn't win the federal election, so they wanna separate.

I'm failing to see the downside.

Seriously, if this is costing us 11 billion a day in economic damage, get more people working from home.

So much this. I'm not in Ontario, my commute in Saskatoon is an obscene 15 minutes, so I don't go into work all the time. People have asked why I never took any tech jobs in Toronto or KW, and there are two major reasons: 1. Too people-y. I am a small town person, and 2. TRAFFIC HOLY FUCK WHO CAN SIT IN A CAR THAT LONG IN THE CITY?!!? I won't move to Calgary, Edmonton, or even Winnipeg for the same reason and they're not nearly as bad.
