They could, but that’s still going to take a lot to balance the scales. It should be part of an overall plan for housing affordability

Slumlords and overpriced rentals can be storage issues though. It can be a nice place, but if you’re paying $2k+/mo for a 1b1b that’s way too fucking much even if it’s in good condition

I’ve never used that particular software so I couldn’t say. Unless you’re sending over the internet this method should be fairly safe though

This feels like a crappy situation to be in. Governments up the chain have obviously dropped the ball if we’re bringing in refugees without actually having solid plans to support them, sponsors etc.

Meanwhile increasing amounts of citizens are suffering from homelessness due to the housing crisis.

If they think that “denying refugees” is going to spur racism and xenophobia, what exactly do they think will happen when citizens are turned away because the shelters are full of refugees the governments didn’t adequately plan for?

You can also use a file instead of a device if you want to write your image to/from a file

Writing a compressed image at the destination

nc -l 11111 | gzip > /path/to/backup.img.gz

Reading a compressed image at the source and sending uncompressed data over the network (can be cloned directly over drive at the destination, within the original constraints). Please note this will not show a progress status at the source:

zcat /path/to/backup.img.gz | nc 192.168.1.2 11111

Or you could just send the compressed-image data over the network and decompress at the destination (as per the second example}:

dd if=/path/to/backup.img.gz status=progress bs=1M | nc 192.168.1.2 11111

I prefer against sharing my specific location but western Canada in an area where there can literally be a 60-70°c+ difference between peak winter and summer conditions.

Yeah, I’d agree with that. Road clearing in general is pretty bad here, let alone sidewalks and bike lanes (especially since the “clearing” often involves pushing it off to the side and blocking up those lanes).

I found it cool how some countries had sweepers which collect the snow and cart it off rather than just pushing it around

I could see this for ice but I’m thinking more snow and slush, which where can be near bumper-height on cars (not to mention the double-digit degrees below freezing for temperatures).

It’s one of those things where it’s probably a good idea for bigger cities with nicer weather (or better maintenance of dedicated bike lanes), but in smaller centres a better investment in public transit would make more sense

Those might be ok here in summer, but the snow (and shitty city management) plus hills would not work out well in the winter.

As somebody who has literally been injured with a cardboard tube to the eye (being used as a sword though sans crossguard/handle): just make sure the kids are using swinging motions rather than poking (or are very aware to stay below neck level)
