Won't the iron dome that Trump wants to build be sufficient? https://twitter.com/baldwin_daniel_/status/1746617449246581129
It's not any better in Alberta. :-(
In BC you can "play games" with the medical and go to smaller communities and find a Emergency Care Clinic that serves a smaller community.
Family doctors are impossible to get. There are more than a million people on the waiting lists.
To be fair, the government is making some progress on improving things. They've made changes to allow more doctors to be certified. They've pumped money into training programs (they pay a full salary and all tuition at university for some certifications). It's not perfect but it is something.
Edit: fixed some words that got mangled on mobile
Nah you're 100% welcome in Canada. We are glad you're here.
Try Nanaimo. A city of over 100,000 people... there is ONE walk-in clinic in the city, and they are rarely open. You go there and it's either closed or there is a sign on the door "Accepting 10 patients today". So you go to the Nanaimo General ER and IF you're lucky, you will be seen in about 8 to 10 hours.
Drink bottle water and consume plastic particles... drink tap water and get all the other contaminants (places I travel for work outside of Canada have highly contaminated and unsafe water... so water with bits of plastic are the lesser evil).
Yup. I really regret letting my EU number go when I moved (back) to Canada. My EU number was about 25 Eur per month (a few years ago) including international roaming calls and data in Canada.
I though naaah, I'll get a local number because it makes sense right? No not really... 98% of the calls I get on my local Canadian number are scam calls (someone threatening me in Chinese with deportation over unpaid taxes etc.) so it's not like I would have been inconveniencing anyone local calling me... most of the remaining 2% call me on WhatsApp or Signal...
Hmmm.... Infineon has been doing work with graphene semiconductors for years. Something seems a bit off with this article.
Double-check that you have Nvidia Prime configured/selected. It's been a while since I've used Mint, but... try this...
- Open the App menu (bottom left, same as in Windows)
- Type "nvidia' and this should show you the NVIDIA X Server Settings app. Click on it to launch.
- Double-check that you see all the drive info, including the driver version. Close out the app of all looks "right".
- In the Mint system tray (lower right), click on the Nvidia icon (if you don't see it, open the app menu, type "startup" and make sure "Support for NVIDIA Prime" is enabled) 5. Set the profile to "Active profile" (it's hard on battery life in this mode). This forces everything to run on the Nvidia card only...
- Test your games. Do they work better? If yes, you've found the root cause of the performance issue... if not... Hmmm, I'm not sure, then it's time to try other things.
My experience with this is that Nvidia Prime was not being enabled/selected when I was trying to game. If this (forcing everything to launch on Prime) works and your games are working at a more acceptable performance level, you can leave it in "Active profile" at the expense of battery life... or you can set up the On-Demand profile.... or explicitly switch between Intel and Nvidia, using Intel for all non-gaming things and pop it into Nvidia when you want to game.. lots of possibilities depending on how you want to use the computer. :-)
BTW, an alternative to the systray method is simply setting the profiles right within the NVIDIA X Server Settings app (the last menu item on the left nav menu within the NVIDIA app). I just find that the systray icon is a quick/easy way, and it's worth knowing about.
Yeah once you fly with other non-Canadian airlines you realize just how awful flying domestic and international on Air Canada really is (and the discount airlines like Swoop were even worse). I travel a lot for personal and work, and I try my best to book Qatar, Emirates, Turkish, etc. Hell, even KLM is better and they aren't amazing. Same with Ethiopian Air... not amazing or even good but better than Air Canada.
They manufacture and sell the buses in Canada... There are BYD buses in operation in at least Toronto, Victoria, Longeuil, St. Albert and Grand Prairie (and probably more by now). https://en.byd.com/news/byd-opens-first-canadian-bus-assembly-plant/ If you're in Montreal, there's a decent chance you'll see BYD E6 taxis.
There's been rumors of the cars being prepped for general sale in Canada.... but I can't find any proof of that right now.
Amazing isn't it? There are people saying these insane things... and the audience is lapping it up. Agreeing. Begging for more.
I'm not American. I'm looking in with horror, confusion, and sadness.
