    From the nested article, the farmer they interviewed makes $20.05/hour, above the minimum wage of $17.20/hour. Which is below the Ottawa living wage for 2023 but it does include a room which doesn’t sound like a slum

    I do accept that this may be an outlier, as the person they interviewed is a lead farmer, but this rule change is targeting employees below the median wage, $28.39/hour in Ontario.

    I disagree that this is endorsing slavery

    Just to reiterate a point in the article, just because you’ve got mining claims doesn’t mean you can just come in and start digging, you need written permission from the landowner before any mining related work can begin (even test holes)

    Are you looking for anything here in particular? There is a lot of this in the industry (Foxconn makes a lot of rebadged stuff).

    That being said, Clevo are not a good quality manufacturer in my experience.

    For me, it’s the “oh here’s an extra point” that doesn’t make sense. Soccer allows draws, but a point gets “lost”, 3 for a win, 1 each for a draw. I’d prefer that personally, but this is a good balance.

    Hopefully the NHL likes what the PWHL are doing and move to the 3 for a win, 2 for an OT or shootout win, 1 for OT/SO loss, or 0 for regular loss point system

    They don’t edit the metadata on the files themselves, unless there’s a trick I’m missing

    They download and categorize it, but don’t change the default audio track or fix incorrect language listings

  • I’ve got a lot of local media stored, and some of them have the incorrect audio track selected as the default audio track. I’ve fixed some of them manually with various incantations of command line tools, but I’m looking for a web based tool to do this for me. Does anyone have a suggestion? I’m looking to change the default audio track and fix incorrect languages on the audio tracks primarily, and I’d like to avoid building something from scratch

    It might be a CSS/rendering bug. Clicking an icon recalculated the math and it hides them

    It’s worth reporting a bug on the official tracker so there’s awareness

    Super basic, but check the quality of your power supplies, it’s not going to be a smoking gun, but a good quality, stable power supply is worth investing in
