The Star reached out to dozens of people who left Toronto
Toronto, they said, has become unlivable.
Wow, incredible investigative journalism there. In other news, The Star reached out to dozens of people who left [CITY]. "[CITY], they said, has become unlivable." Very informative 👍
Decent article but senseless headline. Nobody ever positioned mandatory service as a method to make Canadians love their country...
The phaseout is now years ahead of schedule, in large part due to natural gas taking over much of the generation. Many coal plants were either replaced by gas plants or converted to burn natural gas instead. Electricity generated from natural gas puts out roughly half the amount of greenhouse gas emissions as compared with coal.
Ok, so fossil fuel is still the primary driver. But well, incremental improvements do matter. Zeroing out coal this year is a great milestone.
The share from renewables is growing too, even if a bit slowly.
Some good analysis on why having summer time as the permanent time would be good for safety

And you can bet that when that leak would happen, it would come along the entire search and view history for that person.
These dumbfucks have to be saved from digging their own graves as always, because I'm sure the porn they consume is the shadiest.
Re: the title... Yeah no, owners of an expensive property are not only not in the "rich" class, they're likely working class as much as gig drivers and cashiers. Unless they liquidate this asset and actually go live somewhere LCOL where they can live off of the labour of others, they're still working class.
Inflation rate slowing doesn't mean grocery prices drop either, prices just increase slower... so don't celebrate on that cheese just yet
I guess it makes sense that the psychology community would push back against the claim that pornography fits a scientific definition of addiction. The same deal goes for sugar: many people talk about sugar being addictive, but it's pretty absurd to classify sugar as addictive substance, and the article raises this point very explicitly:
That isn’t to say that people can’t use pornography compulsively, as you may compulsively eat donuts or bacon every day against the best interests of your heart
And that's what most people usually mean when they're addicted to it. So I wouldn't say that it's indoctrination or "hive mind", it's just how people use the word "addiction" in day-to-day, non-scientifically-precise ways. You're absolutely right to point that out because people should not seek addiction treatment for porn consumption, but it's also understandable to seek treatment for compulsive consumption of whatever. Just like sugar and junk food, while the science doesn't say it's addiction, it also presents endless evidence on the negative effects of common patterns of consumption.
A lot of women are deciding that most men aren’t offering them anything they want or need.
I doubt that's an accurate description of reality, but I guess that's a good portrayal of what is perceived by these confused men.
People don’t need the government telling them which forms of caffeine are acceptable.
But they do need the government telling food companies to properly label the shit they sell
It's exactly as (un)secure as I expected. It's a wireless device made by bike part manufactures... can't expect better, realistically.
Still, I wouldn't recommend someone against buying one because of this. The threat model for cyclists is getting maimed by vehicles or psychopaths laying booby traps out there. Hackers messing with my gear shifting is the least of my worries.
