Are you kidding me? They would have renamed all the "St" streets and neighborhoods and removed religious symbols from schools and other public buildings.

But I live in "Ville Marie", Mount royal has a prominent cross, streets have names like Saint Antoine. Near my house there is a public school with a huge religious statue.

Bill 21 is not pro laicity if the state. For that I'd be in favour. But anything Catholic is "tradition" so it gets a pass.

Oh. That's because Christianity is tradition.

They'll find an out the same way they found an out for having religious symbols in public property after bill 21.

Teachers can't wear religious symbols, you see? But schools, hospitals, streets, etc can have prominent religious symbols and names, I mean, if it's Catholic it's tradition, not religion.

Once you implement Authentication/Authorization it's fairly simple to add a new function.

I think here, the problem is not the complexity of the task, but the developer's prioritization based on all the backlogged features.

Still, users can do this on their own. Directly on the folder, autorotating all pictures using wildcards.

You can start with what you can. What can provide the most value and iteratively improve from there.

Sometimes as a developer or even product manager, you don't know what feature complete really means until people start using it.

Oh, by the way: https://imagemagick.org/script/formats.php

But, really, how frequently a normal user borks their system?

I've been using Linux for since 2004 and I can't remember the last time (if any) that I irrecoverably borked the system.

I use arch, mint and Fedora. Repositories in those three are solid.

Yes, immutable systems have their uses. Mostly entreprise uses but for home? Only out of curiosity.

I'm just learning about the software but all the tasks you listed (crop, rotate and adjust), can be done easily with imagemagick simple one-liners.

For example: Convert in.jpg -rotate out.jpg

Or

Using the auto-orient option or using jhead.

Why is it so hard for this app to implement it?

You really think they'll understand?

They are incapable to read facts and statistics on how vaccines eliminated or reduced terrible illnesses.

They won't understand what you are saying.

Yep, we don't get to study the Nanjing masacre, for example unless we go out of our way to learn about it.

"Usually"

Sure.

But there are custoner managed keys which do exactly what I think it does.

In Canada (Quebec) you go to the government weed store which feels like an apple store, ask an expert and they recommend the weed based on the need you want to have and personal preferences. Like a sommelier for weed.

They had big screens with the catalogs and specialty items.

And yes. It is run by the government with high quality control.

And we here in Canada still ashamed of residential schools. You'd think other countries would have learned.

Haven't they seen enought proof of the militarization of the police in the US plus the current actions of the Trump government to create a military run country?

 

170 cm, 70 Kg 57, years old.

The ideal weight for my parameters is 54Kg - 72 Kg

I've like to get to the lower end of my ideal weight but if not at least 62 Kg. I want lean muscle, not bulky muscles.

I've cut bread and processed sugars. I'm sure that I'm in a caloric deficit. Eating more raw fruits and fibrous food like beans, more fish and less meat and fats. I sleep well. I drink a lot of water. No pop or coffee. Very little milk.

For snacks about 1/2 cup mixed nuts and one or two stalks of celery with a spoon of light ranch (25 calories per spoon)

I'm following my regular daily exercise routine, I go to the rock climbing gym Three times per week for two hours. I bike everywhere. After exercise in the morning I replace breakfast with a protein supplement.

I started mid July at +74 Kg which is the same weight I've had for years.

The first four weeks I lost 4 Kg. The only change, since then, the only change has been to increase exercise.

For the past week the weight has fluctuated between 69.2 to 69.8.

Is it normal for weight to plateau? Is it the increase of muscle mass which may be balancing other weight loss? Should I be more patient?
