Anyone using Lineage? How is it?

I’ve got a Pixel 7 and have been wondering

I want that painting in my office

I were to give a corpse a bath at what point does the water become broth?

I used to walk over a bridge that had a face like this below.

I had those exact same intrusive thoughts.

That’s quite the hoard she’s got there!

I got screwed over about vacation in the summer and wasn’t able to go, so I’m taking 3 weeks off.

That makes sense

I knew there had to be a catch

Does this work?

If you looped it or created a doubly linked list what would happen?

The Olympics on CBC were insufferable. All the ads were gambling and ozempic/wegovy ads.

They’re like swimming calzones now!

God I’m so tired of Marvel.

I know people like it, and that’s okay, but every action movie is now Guardians of the Galaxy. The earlier marvel movies are fun too, but by Ironman 2/3 there was so much product placement and it all felt very stale and sterile.

I want this as a bumper sticker

This is the best thing I’ve read all week

The gap was driven by the top 20 per cent of income earners, who saw the largest increase in their share of disposable income, the report said. That increase was driven largely by investment gains, which the statistics agency attributed to high interest rates.

This is true for me. About 40% of my income came from investments.

The Statistics Canada report said that in the second quarter, the top 20 per cent of Canadians held more than two-thirds of the country’s wealth, averaging $3.4 million per household. By comparison, the bottom 40 per cent of Canadians accounted for only 2.8 per cent of Canada’s wealth.

This is massively skewed, probably well beyond what most people think and would intuitively envision. I’ve done some work studying businesses and their wealth distributions, what you see is the top 1% is 10x higher than the top 10%, 0.1% is 10x higher than 1%, etc.

Wealth generally creates power law distributions, as the factors that increase wealth multiply wealth, not add to wealth.

I don’t think our government can stop this, as most of my investments are US based. What we can do is try and drive better results for that middle 60% of households who are seeing lifestyle eroded by inflation and stagnant wages (while the floor of minimum wage shifts upwards).

We need to encourage more investment in Canada, and we need to encourage Canadian companies to pay more on-par with US companies. The fact that 60% of CS grads leave and Canadian companies are generally living 20 years in the past is a huge problem for our productivity. We really need bring back manufacturing and high tech work that improves productivity with high leverage.

La cucaracha incoming!

Singh is only 2 points higher in net favourability than Pollievre.

Right now the NDP are forecast to get far fewer seats than liberals. Calling an election will effectively end Singhs tenure as it will become clear how unpopular he is.

I appreciate you bringing facts into the discussion

I try to stay out of American politics, but Trump had decided he wants into ours, so the embargo is off.

Congrats to President Musk out here showing he’s got more balls than Trump.

He’s going to mess up Trump’s big day because he holds the purse strings and has the GOP by the balls.

My void also loves tunnels

I think it’s a great move for them. They’re actually in the running for official opposition right now, with a 42% chance of becoming opposition (using pre-Freeland resignation stats)

It’s not my worst typo… but I won’t change it

I’ve been taking low cooldown strats and it’s been fun. I’m throwing 30-70 stratagems per round lately, but it definitely helps to keep the chaf in line against the Illuminate.
