People have multiple reasons to move to a different place. One of them is money - if the person can earn more money in another country, he moves there.

People also do not change very quickly. If someone comes from a country where it is considered OK to dump trash in a river, he likely won't change his mind after moving. He will likely obey the law that says "do not dump trash in a river" to not get punished, but he may consider the law to be stupid and would still be more likely to dump trash in a river if he was sure he could get away with it, after all, is is used to it being OK to do that..

If it's just a single person (or a single family) moving to a different country, they will be basically forced to assimilate - learn the language, learn the customs and so on.

If a lot of people from some country move to another country and live in close proximity to each other, they start making a miniature version of their home country. After all, why learn another language if you can communicate with your neighbors, employer and the cashiers at the shop using your native language or some other language you know?

People from my country have moved to a bunch of places (mostly the UK) to look for more money. Some assimilated and want to live there. Some didn't and instead just hung out with their own bringing some problems from my country (mainly theft at the time) to those countries.

There are many people, some of them assimilate, some of them don't. Those who assimilated would be willing to be friends with you, but those who are the more stereotypical Muslims (taking from your example) would likely not want to associate with you and you would likely not want to associate with them. You probably do not speak Arabic or some other language of a Muslim-majority country, so the people who do not care about learning the languages of Canada, won't be talking with you and won't be your friends.

By the way, I am not a racist - I think that different races are equal. I am, however, a xenophobe - I think that a culture that says it's OK to dump trash in a river, a culture that says it's OK to kill someone if he or she offended your honor or a culture that says the appropriate punishment for rape is letting the victim's brother rape your sister is absolutely inferior to the Western culture and I do not want people from one of those cultures near me.

Another way to do this would be deregulation of power generation. Building a new power plant is probably more expensive because of new regulations, where an existing power plant may not have to meet them.

Similar with houses where I live. If you have a house that was built a while ago, it does not need to meet new requirements, but if you want to build a new house, it has to have very good thermal insulation, solar panels on the roof and so on, this makes building a new house more expensive. It may be cheaper to live there in the long run (due to lower cost for heating), but the ROI is going to be very long, because you need a bigger loan to be able to build (or buy) it and then you will pay more interest on that bigger loan.

Given the fake sources, the fake content, and the left-out content to bias articles along with the insane behavior by the entrenched, abusive "admins" who have [[WP:OWN]]ership complexes, Wikipedia is basically trash anyways...

The concept of "god" is literally the dumbest fucking shit ever, designed to control the Inbred Trashyokels and Goatfuckers from 2-4000 years ago. We should have long moved away from that Cult Crap.

We had the Telecomm act and legal requirements for wired service for a reason. The cell networks have shirked this for too long.

You can thank the GOP, aka the Retardican Party, for that. Decades of not letting teachers teach and demanding "teacher-proof curriculums" that kowtow to fake white-supremacist history, young-earth creationism, and other DumbRetardedFuckery.

I seem to remember the Iraq-area wars that the US was involved in going on far longer and less of an oil crisis happening this fast.

That would be because even during those wars and conflicts, we didn't have an orange-painted pedophilic retard with delusions of grandeur causing a weekslong blockage of the major shipping lane through which ~35% of the world's crude oil trade flows.

The closest we've seen recently was when the Ever Given got stuck in the Suez during 2021, and even that only lasted for 6 days. Plus, it wasn't as big a deal because less oil was being used worldwide during pandemic countermeasures.

The closest in the past 100 years is when Treasonous Klanbitch Ronny Reagan betrayed the USA and convinced the Iranian Ayatollah to cut off shipping to hurt Carter in the 1980 election, in trade for guns and other military supplies that the Treasonshit Republicans paid out later during Reagan's terms.

I am OK with IPv4. All my devices support it, the addresses are easy to remember. Everything works.

Though the local v6 addresses can be easy to remember as well, like fd00::0:1, it would be more annoying to remember a public IP as it would be longer.
The fact that my numpad does not have letters and : would make it more annoying to type, but whatever.

Still, IPv4 for me is good enough. There are not enough IPv6-only services that would make me consider adding it to my network and duplicating all the firewall rules. That's for my home network. It goes many times that for the work network, because that would be even more difficult and time-consuming for very little benefit right now.

I see NAT as a feature by the way, I would use it with v6 too.

Cue the Corrupt MafiAA starting another assault on digital preservation. Sigh.

The women he walked in on, who WERE UNDERAGE TEENS AT THE TIME, remember him doing it.

iOS has that marketshare now because countries other than the USA (in the Asian zone and Eurozone) caught Apple doing monopolistic things and acted to stop it early.

Wait. You say Microsoft is doing the same thing they've done a dozen times before, again? I'm shocked, I say. Shocked.

........ well, not that shocked.

Basically the EFF exists to defend pedo rights

You are disturbingly confused and thinking of the (GOP) RetardedKlan Party whose head is a literal 34-time convicted felon, pedophile who admitted in a Howard Stern video to invading locker rooms of underage girls at pageants, and all-around Treasonous Shitrag who wears caked orange makeup to hide his syphilis blemishes.

Anyone who supports HitlerHeiler Leon Skum is already diagnosed as severely retarded.

As someone who uses old hardware, I agree. I have one small PC that I run Linux on. It's a 586, so, in theory I could run even the latest kernel, but in practice I run Debian 8, because Debian 9 does not boot on it (either 128MB RAM is not enough for it or the CPU is missing some feature).
The newer versions would probably run slower anyway.

I have a 486 though, maybe I should try to see which latest Debian version runs on it.
