Red light cameras and speed cameras on doggies path would be fun to see played out. To bad he'll probably get them rescinded somehow. But it would be fun to see how many tickets they could catch him personally for in a single trip

Sounds like the mayor needs to put a congestion charge on vehicles on those corridors and while they're at it the Gardiner.

Been ages since I had to recompile a Linux kernel to deal with hard real time (via RTAI) but I recall emc2 being a great alternative to all the fussing around recompiling as some one did all the work for that.

I also recall using this resource . Eventually I just made a class for the threads I was using to wrap POSIX and RTAI calls for periodic tasks and chose which was the underlying method on a compiler flag. If I was on my desktop I could proof of concept most things in POSIX and then test on the RTAI machine. If I need to revisit this again I may dust off my old class and add freeRTOS stuff to it so I can prototype on Linux then try to squeeze it on to an esp32.

@folkrav is right here

And I'll posit that you likely wouldn't like this ability to exist in the first place.

Let me walk you through a thought experiment. Any system that requires a verification step is likely tied to identity and putting up a gate to get in based on the identity or using it to get a token to access it ties you to that activity. Ok great let's not let the kids see porn, but the exact same approach can be used to prevent or put a chilling effect on people seeking lgbt content, anti Vax content, unionization information,church gatherings, crypto schemes,academic research, Israel, Palestine, or anything really.

The internet was never intended to be a secure place it was intended to survive a devastating nuclear attack and keep information flowing. Tacking on arbitrary mortality gates is Orwellian and not how the internet was designed to function. Maybe these guys need to a seperate network (without blackjack and hookers) just for the content you want kids to see and not tell them about the internet till later because these proposed measures are like outlawing the letter q because you don't like that it leads to the word question.

Ah just don't renew station licenses or make the liscences more expensive and offer reductions on this new license hike if news broadcasts are locally produced and at noon six pm and 11 pm

Honestly thank you I'm starting to get old and cranky about the acronym issue.

Ok what the fuck is SM sadomasochism? Cause I read the article checked the thread and there are no definitions or context clues...

Now a large portion of the audience will read your comments coming with my flawed conclusions. And it's at least somewhat funny

Define acronyms For Fucks Sake (FFS)

Yea this guy is the hero of the thread, I would have just not bothered with the article if it wasn't for you pointing that line out

 

Ok yesterday I heard from someone that staff from MDA Brampton were on strike and couldn't find anything but articles from 2020 and 2009 so I took down the post because I couldn't verify.

Anyway good luck guys and gals
