"National Conservatism" on the wall, without a hint of irony.

I wonder if in a decade or so, if NaCo (nacho?) will replace Nazi in the lexicon.

Maybe, and this is just an idea, stop being so attractive to fascist rejects?

Fuck developers.

If they don't want to build housing, we should nationalize a few of them and build it ourselves.

Well shit, I really liked Book Depot, or at least their physical space in St. Catharines.

I'm less sad it's gone now.

It makes sense when you realize Ford won't do anything that returns private money to the public, but will do everything and anything that enriches the private sector.

Removing tolls from the 407 would be a public benefit, so he won't do it. You'd be more likely to see him sell the east-of-Pickering chunk of 407 for a "tax break" and claim it's a win.

NT 3.5 was the last good version. Fight me.

You're absolutely right about this. 7 is basically a Vista service pack that got rebranded.

All of the "good stuff" people credit 7 with came in Vista.

8 wasn't nearly as bad as people think, and there were big improvements to the kernel that make it a definite improvement over 7.

The problem for most people was the Start screen, which if you could get past, left you with what was a really good OS.

Less ads and telemetry than 10, too.
