Federal government going ahead with high-speed rail between Quebec City and Toronto
  • Did I detect a hint of cynicism there?

    "It's expected to take four to five years to design the future high-speed line. Funds are to be allocated at the end of that time period, so it's possible a future government could modify or cancel the project."

    I'm hoping this comes to pass, but I have a small shred of doubt

  • Macbook Air wireless card replacement?
  • Might be a bit late of a reply, but I was able to install the Broadcom drivers super easy on my 2013 MBP. I know, different laptop, but same driver.

    After installing Manjaro, KDE Neon, and Kubuntu, here's what I did:

    I paired it with my phone and shared my internet connection, then downloaded the Broadcom driver in the repo. Done!

    I also installed Aurora (Fedora immutable distro) on it, and the Broadcom drivers were already installed, so it just worked, but every time my laptop went to sleep it crashed and I had to hold the power button to start it, so I gave up on that and installed Neon

    Switching back to Linux. For good.
  • I've had several machines that refuse to update because of error 0x<insert hex number here>.

    In fact, one of my kids has that happening right now.

    At least that part is not isolated to OP. It doesn't happen to me anymore since I switched to Linux about a year ago

  • I really wanted one but couldn't afford it. Then I was able to and did. Then the Elon shit hit the fan, and now I'm stuck with a dick mobile.

    I looked at trading it in for a Hyundai Ioniq 5 or something else, but I would be out thousands if I did

  • Extra drivers on Fedora Atomic install

    Hi folks,

    I downloaded Aurora (https://getaurora.dev/) the other day with the intention of installing it on my 2013 MacBook Pro.

    It wasn't until I got to the install screen when I realized that I have no networking.

    I currently have Manjaro installed on this laptop, and I remember having to connect via Bluetooth to my phone to download and the Broadcom BCM4360 drivers.

    Is there a good way to bake that into the image prior to installing?

    Either that or I can try downloading the driver over Bluetooth again, but then I'll need to use a command to somehow layer it on top of the existing image? (rpm-ostree?)

    Sorry if I'm missing some command or documentation, but it is a little more confusing trying out these immutable distros.

    Has anyone else out there run into this issue and worked around it?

    Custom Linux Distribution just for Gaming
  • First time hearing about Universal Blue, but I have heard of Bazzite before.

    I'm drumming up the courage to replace my Manjaro install with Aurora, and replace my Mint desktop with Bazzite+developer tools.

    Is it easy/possible to install the Bazzite tweaks on top of Aurora?

    Also, my desktop has an Nvidia card.. should I expect problems?

  • Private WiFi camera for out of town viewing. Live view only. No storage.
  • Thanks for mentioning Wyze.. looks awesome.

    I ended up with a shitty Arlo set that I overpaid for, and the worst part is that they no longer sell the station where you can save video to the local network, meaning I'd have to pay for a subscription

  • What games did you have a good time with that you just never finished?
  • I played this almost 40 years ago on an Apple IIe when I was 10-11 years old, made it all the way to the final dungeon, then just.. gave up. I don't know why. Maybe I was unprepared for the final dungeon and was too lazy to leave and get more supplies?

    I recently thought about doing a replay of it to see how it holds up

  • What popular product do you think is modern day snakeoil?
  • Tesla driver here.

    When I first heard the announcement that they were going vision-only, I thought ah shit they're boned.

    I replied on maybe a Reddit thread (?) that there was no way it'll work up north in any kind of snowy conditions, and people called me an idiot etc

    Fast forward a few years later, when I got to experience it first hand. Anytime I drive the car at night, warnings pop up on the screen like "front left camera is blocked or blinded" Cue Surprised Pikachu. In the snow, sometimes it can't even detect a road.

    I tried the free trial of FSD and, while it's a neat gimmick, I think I was able to make maybe one or two short trips (2km) without needing to disengage it.

    It was really bad

  • Stop Google search when visiting intranet site?

    We have a few sites on our intranet at work that I constantly end up searching on Google instead of visiting the site.

    If I type in the address bar

    >https://site.work/customers/12345

    it will navigate just fine, but if I just type

    >site.work/customers/12345

    it executes a Google search

    Is there any way for me to add a whitelist for a given hostname? I don't want to turn keyword.enabled off.. I only want to turn it off for one site.
