Politics, Society and News. / The 2025 Canadian Federal Elec...
Last post by buster - April 24, 2025, 04:16:30 PMWe're going to have to stretch this thread out because nothing is for sure until next Monday evening. And there's bound to be hidden gems of drama. And I think it might to be interesting to read what others are taking from this battle that's going on.
1. I'll admit that I'm getting a great deal of information from the 338 site, which does not do polls, but analyzes the results of the many other polls, giving most weight to those that have been successful in the past with their predictions. This should work:
https://338canada.com/federal.htm
2. An analysis of the map somewhere on the site shows it's probable/possible only 2 provinces will elect more Conservatives than Liberals.
3. I suspect many voters intend to shift away from NDP for this election to combine with other nonCons, just to be be sure.
Bill, I have no idea what your riding is doing. My son's will go Conservative and my daughter's will vote Liberal. Peterborough is still pretty tight.

But let's first clarify what 'us' means. It sounds reasonable if it doesn't mean something like, say, 'anyone who lives in Peterborough'.

"Check out Clementine." The text was indented and highlighted, so I thought maybe you meant it to be a link. You don't have to provide them. I know you're lazy like that.

Last post by Jason - April 16, 2025, 05:13:17 PMWhat's the link you were trying to share, Buster?
I think you can integrate Spotify and other services into it, too. I know most people abscond with their music, but I try to use the paid music services. To be honest, it's easier for me. No judgement. Okay, maybe a little judgment, but less than usual.
Anybody else using Clementine? And is it your darling?

Linux Applications & Android apps / Clementine Music App is Back
Last post by buster - April 15, 2025, 05:54:23 PMThe successor to Amorak is available and I'm using it in the latest Mint. Clean, clear and easy, yet useful for anything you wish to do as far as I can see.
Check out Clementine.
This wasn't under development for a while, but should also be available in Microsoft too. Comfortable so far. I like it. Listening at the moment.

Distributions / Re: Linux Mint 20.3 EOL
Last post by buster - April 09, 2025, 09:00:59 PMSteps for the upgrades are on the site somewhere. I always found then straight forward. And if you have a separate /home, you can do a fresh install and not format /home. Quick.
But the upgrades seemed fairly easy. And interesting. Do the 2 upgrades over a period of time.
You do have an image to fall back on.
Marilyn's computer has gone thru many of these.
