And beyomd PCIe 4 the electrical interconnect requirements become significantly more challenging due to the faster switching rates, so even the PCBs have to be reworked.

That would be best but we're not gonna do that because the moment we hint extra regulation for US autos the lobby activates. The current import carveout is targeted so precisely to displace almost no sales from the Big Three.

Let the man talk! Give him a megaphone if you have one.

(so he can drive more people away from the reformacons)

 

During the 2017 NDP leadership campaign Singh got:

$924,902.64 from 6,484 members [1]

During the 2025/6 leadership election Lewis so far got:

$1,229,483.79 from 10,407 members [2]

The NDP's death may have been greatly exaggerated.

Sources: 1, 2.

The system is progressing as expected. The US is further ahead on the timeline. If they collapse first, that may trigger a systemic reset here, before we've reached their stage of fascist dystopia. Get your demands ready and demand more than people did during the 1930s. Much more.

A general strike is stopping doing those services en masse.

Quebec is lagging behind. Montreal can do better!

This is something I'm going for too. Currently just running Ollama integration with HA for voice control but I'd be moving STT/TTS locally too. The new Qwen 3.5 35B loads fairly quickly and responds quickly enough to be usable for conversation on my system. The 9B version is extremely fast and adequate for voice control.

 

The Provincial picture is less clear. Under current interim leader Trevor Halford, the BC Conservative trail the David Eby led NDP by almost 2 points. 38.6% to 36.8%. When testing potential BC Conservative leadership candidates, each of Elliott, Black, Findlay and Milobar lead the NDP but only Peter Milobar would result in a clear majority BC Conservative majority.

This doesn't look like the voter motivator we're hoping to get out of the leadership contest.

the next could be another Trump

E.g. Prez Tucker Carlson on an anti-Israel + pro-deportations ticket

Yeah the sockpuppet can only operate on boolean logic and when something doesn't neatly fit, like the US-Israel war on Iran which obviously helps Russia, it twists into a pretzel and starts throwing exceptions.

There's probably going to be some reversal in such a scenario but I think this time it goes deeper than that. People see it's not just the clowns in the White House, it's also all major American corporations and their owners. Those won't change with the coming of Obama v2, and they're not about to start exracting less from us. Meanwhile China's gonna keep taking more and more mindshare by delivering more and more high and low tech products in people's lives. I think a significant reversal that puts the US above China would only occur under an FDR-like figure that curbstomps the whole US oligarchy.

 

Tech Jesus delivers.

Here are the vote counts for the candidates in first, second and third place:

  • Hannah Spencer (Green Party): 14,980 votes
  • Matt Goodwin (Reform UK): 10,578 votes
  • Angeliki Stogia (Labour Party): 9,364 vote

Democratic socialist politics work in the UK as well. I think we're on a winning path with an Avi-led NDP. The Canadian political establishment won't know what hit 'em!

 

Good episode as usual.

The Good Talk threesome really isn't happy with Avi Lewis'es recent comment on Mark Carney. 😄

Also they likened his proposals about public options for food, telco, housing to the Soviet Union. These are knowledgable Canadians. They must know enough Canadian history to recall that crown corporations providing basic services to Canadians is very much a Canadian tradition. Whaddayamean Soviet Union?
