Life's Too Short was really great when I saw it not sure how it's aged though

I'm seriously considering getting one of these to replace everything I currently use the Adobe suite for and go through whatever it takes to get my current PC turned into a Linux Gaming PC and just switching between them as needed. I know kdenlive and the GIMP are pretty solid but I've also used the Apple equivalents and prefer them.

Ironically? I noticed at some point in the last few weeks McDonalds switched from WB MultiVersus happy meal toys to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe...which came out in 2017 and somehow is still relevant enough to get happy meal toys

It's possible there was some fraud going on beyond what the article describes, (it wouldn't be the first time CBC posted an article missing some important context that might come later), but to me it seems like someone came up with a novel solution that was outside a rigid billing structure.

COVID 2020 was a terrible, bizarre time that's probably better left in the past and to punish someone who actually did some good while so many who profiteered with government benefits simply skated by just seems mean. idk, it's interesting.

The library is great! I'm going to pick up a radon detector the next time they have them when I'm there, I've borrowed a Kill-a-Watt meter a few times, pretty useful. The main branch has a makerspace with a 3D Printer, a cricut, a sewing machine and stuff like that.

When I lived in Toronto, the library had a number of free passes to museums every week, was nice to use those.

I agree, but this story is regarding the Provincial health plan, aka Canadian socialized medicine. These shots were taxpayer funded, it's the Province that wants the money back.

From the article it doesn't seem like anything fraudulent happened here. So many corporations used the government handouts in ways that actually were fraud and weren't punished like this. In Sudbury, our Chief Medical Officer billed a million dollars of overtime over the two pandemic years, and that was somehow okay.

Unless I'm missing something the outrage seems justified. Doug really is "siding with the doctors and nurses" eh

I had no idea lemmy.today was that sparsely used. I appreciate their hands-off approach and the reliability is pretty solid. Just wanted to say I like what they're doing here.
