You can always self-clear your package. Then they don’t see any extra fees from you.

Super simple

  1. Tell them to email you the commercial invoice.
  2. Bring invoice to Canada customs and pay any duties or taxes-they stamp your paper.
  3. Bring stamped paper to courier and they have to give you your stuff with no additional fees.

Done

Done it many times. Super easy here because UPS and Canada customs are a 5 minute drive from each other.

Wait until the cons get power, tear gas and batons.

Older intel macs could do an internet recovery on a bare drive. The internet recovery system was part of the ROMs/BIOS.

We’ve been shopping at Costco like mad and are building a pantry of cheap staples to pull from for meals.

For proteins, buy in bulk and portion them out. Far cheaper than supermarkets.

Not just best effort but any other language is actively discouraged and hindered by the government.

Oh. I must’ve hit a nerve. Truth hurts huh.

Tabernac!

Don’t tell him about building an unRAID server on a PC. It’s a rabbit hole your dad will love.

Can scale it from cheap used hardware to top of the line server hardware.

I started mine with retired PC hardware and have upgraded it to used commercial server hardware and it’s rock solid with more storage than my office server at work. 😂. The ultimate tinkering platform.

Set mine up as well. Marvellous piece of kit. Quite affordable for what you get.

You know as well as I do that if you’re not a French speaker in Quebec that you’re a second class citizen in the eyes of the government (and many of the population).

I’ve heard it doesn’t due to Apple restrictions on the new operating systems for Apple silicon but I’ve never tried it myself.

Frankly not just for less crime, just payback.

Would probably make a victimized person or shop owner feel better seeing the convict get beaten bloody.

I know it would make me feel better if I got pickpocketed and beaten to see some equivalent payback.
