  • Wait, so the dude honked after her because she was speeding 20 above the limit (imo justified), and she’s pretending of taking the high road by slowing down 30 under the limit just to spite him for her being wrong? 🤔

    Or maybe it’s oddly phrased and he was going 30 over and the petty lane is justified. (Personally I’d go 40-45, just to be not too slow as to be dangerous).


  • I have the following, which I didn’t make myself

    DontF-withPaste

    javascript:forceBrowserDefault=(e=>{e.stopImmediatePropagation();return true;});['copy','cut','paste'].forEach(e=>document.addEventListener(e,forceBrowserDefault,true));
    

    Purpose: Restore the ability to paste stuff anywhere, some websites will do this in their password field

    kill-sticky

    (avascript:(function(){document.querySelectorAll("body *").forEach(function(node){if(["fixed","sticky"].includes(getComputedStyle(node).position)){node.parentNode.removeChild(node)}});document.querySelectorAll("html *").forEach(function(node){var s=getComputedStyle(node);if("hidden"===s["overflow"]){node.style["overflow"]="visible"}if("hidden"===s["overflow-x"]){node.style["overflow-x"]="visible"}if("hidden"===s["overflow-y"]){node.style["overflow-y"]="visible"}});var htmlNode=document.querySelector("html");htmlNode.style["overflow"]="visible";htmlNode.style["overflow-x"]="visible";htmlNode.style["overflow-y"]="visible"})();
    

    Purpose: Un-stick anything that remain static when you scroll, ex: website header







  • From the Government point of view, it made more sense to let go a potential of 7B$ in revenue to save some Canadian jobs. It’s less damaging to do that and lose some numbers in a spreadsheet than seeing jobs in steel, automobile and other sectors lost, which require more work to bring back.

    Also, these kinds of tax are normally reflected in higher price to the consumer, which doesn’t help when there’s no viable Canadian alternatives to turn towards to. What is Google, Netflix, etc going to do if they get taxed a part of their Canadian income? They’ll increase the subscription cost to make up for it.

    Not saying that I agree with the reason, and I’m not happy we lost that, but there’s a bigger picture.
