I too am big fan of Linux. I separated from windows almost 10 years ago, the prospect of having to use Vista was really scary. I have tried many distros and my favorite so far is Xubuntu. A big plus about linux is the stability of the system, but it is a double edged sword. It doesn't break often so you forget how to fix stuff when problems arise and then you fix the problem, but all those fixes stacks up and soon enough you have a really weird version of linux which have many small bug, but not enough that you want to reinstall. My home server needs a reinstall since last year at least,can't upgrade ubuntu any more and it's a very old version, but I just don't find the time and courage to rebuild it. Those of you who go "all free or nothing", meh, little bit extremist imho. I wouldn't mind if those "free" driver were up to par, but I respect that I need to have some proprietary drivers for stuff to work better. All I demand from hardware manufacturers is that if they can't provide proper drivers is to open their API.

If cops could stop to act like psychopaths when they are in the street that would be great. I have experienced it, witnessed it... I also had good experiences with them when I needed their legitimate help. It can be very confusing for an honest citizen.

Are you scared he wants to legalize cannabis?

Show them this pic. Maybe you aren't using the proper wording. Sadism isn't a "good" value. Sometimes I kinda feel like you when I see stupid comments elsewhere, but I see it more as an opportunity to try to calmly explain how their statement is wrong or that I disagree with. If I can't do it respectfully, I restrain from interacting with them. The way you will communicate it will make the difference between a vicious personnal attack, in which case they will retreat and at best just remove you from their friend list, and a discussion they will agree to participate in which is much more constructive.

Not making excuses for him, I have a feeling he will change his mind once the letters and bailiff comes after him. So all his rhetoric is just horseshit because he is far from understanding the consequences of what he claim he will (not) do in the future.

We should clarify, OP haven't skipped any payment yet. So it's all speaking in the wind until he is consequent and really stops paying. His "moral stand" will hold more weight when the recovery letters starts pilling up.

Do it !!! It's an order

Ellisante35, You should call tonight, I'll grab the popcorn.

Not sure it is the proper discussion, but wherever it leads to... Crypto currency won't free us from taxation, legislation and such. If the government proves you make a profit, revenue, ie run a commercial enterprise, they will either arrest you or tax you and force you to get a proper license for your activities. Even if you deal only in bitcoin, fur or airmiles, the government will tax you accordingly to their fiat and value your operations using comparative. It's easy to get away with a very small business, but if you want to buy a ferrari from your brewed beer, you might encounter some issues...

You do whatever you please, we are just trying to steer you away from a big mistake..., tell us how it goes, I'm curious. Start a blog ask people to pay for your stuff. So how many months behind are you right now?

I dare you to call Stef, you will get destroyed. Do it before doing anything stupid. Even though many agrees that fiat is a fraud, responsible adults respect their obligations. You can chose not to pay, but don't come crying when you reap the consequences.

Lucky you, they can't repo education and knowledge, at least that will always be yours. If I stop paying the bank, I get no more home, job and future. The quicker you go bankrupt the quicker you will recover from this juvenile idea and forget about it. but apparently student loans aren't cleared when you go bankrupt... think about it. Do you really want to live out of the system?

There is a very practical experiment you can make. Try to get out more than 1000$ in cash and you have to tell the bank 24h in advance so they "prepare" the cash...

We could give them their own country, lots of place available in northern canada.

I can see tons of legitimate reason to have to call them, so I'd like to know I can trust them. Until I can hire my own thugs, I like to have those muscles on call. As I said, I'm a landlord, there is time I need them even for minor thing like a noise disturbance because that's what you have to do if you want to have a court file against someone who makes too much noise. It is not acceptable to get into their appartment and break their stereo apparently. Some kind of people you don't want to have to deal with, you can't discuss with them and the cops are there for that, scumbags understand the message better when it comes from someone in uniform.

Building 7, seriously... this is some weird shit... Just saying...

I've come to think they are just another gang with a little more power than the local gangsters. That incident wasn't my first bad experience with the police. I do appreciate when I call them for legitimate purpose, and it has hapened in the past and I'm all praise for the officers when I need their help. But the way they apply justice on the street is ... I have no word for it.

Very good impression.

My question was more about how you let go of the system being shit. I'm don't want to waste any more time on this case, not worth it, even though I know the officer lied. I guess time will make me forget about it, but it sure doesn't makes me want to seek help from them, serve and protect they say, lol. I already know that for petty crimes they are close to useless. The police force is becoming a joke.

I just want to get over it, I contested it, the process took more than a year before there was an hearing, the cop wasn't even present. He wrote on paper that he was an expert on judging people speed... and that he saw me go through it at 30 km/h... That's not even close to what we call an american stop, which the judge joked about with the DA. The justice system is a joke, why do we even call it "justice", they are just appying rules based on whatever the current laws are. Tomorrow cannabis will be legal, will they even feel ashamed or are they some kind of robot? I am a landlord in Quebec, the system is pro-tenants, it is just ridiculous how things are handled on that side too.

This is hilarious. Let's not forget this is the 1$ store, they have a lot of weird stuff. It's called "EVILSTICK", that level of comedy is way above this mom's intellect. The worst thing here is that the media get along with this stupid story. The "evil" picture is obviously a setup and not a real girl cutting herself, there was more scary monsters in kids movie during the 90s. If there was demonic device peddling to my children I'd make sure to get all of them, 1$ what a deal !!! I wouldn't want them to turn to the righteous side, those people are so boring.
