We have great examples from a certain country, to show that "allowing unlimited money in politics = free speech" is bad. There will be disingenuous 'slippery slope' arguments to it but the types of campaigns that this rule is meant to stop is clearly defined and limited.

Flirting with the law here... this photo is legal because it is blank, but just an FYI for anyone here that it is illegal to take or publish photos or videos of a marked ballot under Election Law in Canada.

Yep. Unionization or not we need more working class solidarity.

Nice, subscribed now. Hello from Vancouver!

The "next year" promise of the year...

Hello and welcome!

For administration, you have Group Policy, Active Directory, SAM, and various other things to read up on. Like others have said you can do everything in PowerShell but commands are super verbose. Microsoft does keep thorough documentation on it at least.

In terms of helping people with issues, you have the Windows Registry (kind of like dconf for GNOME), Backup Restore, Updates (most IT spend most of the time after fixing not working stuff, is convincing people to update their computers). If you can think on your feet, you'll be able to solve 90% of most workers' issues with some digging even if you didn't know Windows more than your average computer guy.

In terms of app development, tweaking and troubleshooting, there are a myriad of frameworks, like MFC, .NET, Electron, Microsoft Access databases somehow turned into a vital business application, etc.

Most app developers learn one of the various systems, then end up sticking with it causing Microsoft to support a hodge podge of 20+ year old native frameworks, while others import whatever newfangled crossplatform wrapper of the day is popular. So good luck if learning this is your goal.

OOP noted just one agitator. This is the point of not being afraid to go out, there are far more of us then there are bad actors and shit stirrers. It's important to call them out, don't let them hide, but disengaging from their activities is the way to go rather than taking the bait.

Please!!! Prove this fellow wrong!

You'll be fine, Americans are welcome in Canada, though MAGA and gaudy stars&stripes apparel would be better left at home. We do appreciate your support both in spirit and action, and supporting tourism here instead of the US is a direct contribution in favour of Canada.

One othet thing: Many drivers with a non-Quebec plate get treated with a little more suspicion from police and ridicule from drivers when you mess up driving and parking rules (but the animosity is more against Ontario drivers than anywhere else). This has long been the case so nothing to do with current events.

You should make sure you have your documents and stuff in order for when you return to the US, since your CBP has been known to give a tough time even to people with the legal right to enter.

Get their names, bring it to the court, hold the Republican regime in contempt!
