In peaceful times, people cling to broken systems simply because "that's how it's always been done". Comfort is a prison.

This crisis is a great opportunity to screw Microsoft.

Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder.

Canadians should be agressively lobbying their politicians to embrace Linux and the open source ecosystem. Call your representatives. Write to your city council. Contact your town IT department. Do it now.

There's basically zero chance of this happening.

Never say never.

If you told me that Donald Trump would be President and that he would threaten Greenland and Canada, I would have called you insane.

And yet here we are.

    It was pretty clear to me that Trump would likely become president, and there's very little to be surprised about the US retrenching and trying to secure resources right now. Seems to me that you just haven't been paying attention to what's actually going on in the world.
