  • Millenial Québécois here. Never been a souverainist myself, but I’ve been voting Québec Solidaire if only because I could get behind their societal project. Give me a good project and I’ll probably go along with souveraineté if it’s required for said project. As an end itself, though? That’s where you lose me.

    Anyway, all this to say that yeah, I feel closer to the ROC than I’ve ever been. I find myself cheering for Ford when he slaps export tariffs, and I’m reading up on Mark Carney and so far I’m liking most of what I see so I’ll probably vote Liberal next election.






  • Running a bunch of services here on a i3 PC I built for my wife back in 2010. I’ve since upgraded the RAM to 16GB, added as many hard drives as there are SATA ports on the mobo, re-bedded the heatsink, etc.

    It’s pretty much always ran on Debian, but all services are on Docker these days so the base distro doesn’t matter as much as it used to.

    I’d like to get a good backup solution going for it so I can actually use it for important data, but realistically I’m probably just going to replace it with a NAS at some point.




  • I’m no Python expert either and yeah, from an outsider’s perspective it seems needlessly confusing. easy_install that’s never been easy, pip that should absolutely be put on a Performance Improvement Plan, and now this venv nonsense.

    You can criticize javascript’s ridiculous dependencies all you want (left-pad?), but one thing that they absolutely got right is how to manage them. Everything’s in node_modules and that’s it. Yeah, you might get eleven copies of left-pad on your system, but you know what you NEVER get? Version conflicts between projects you’re working on.
