  • Take solace in knowing that literacy rates are the highest they've ever been in history, the fact that most words are correct is an incredible feat.

    Most people think how they speak rather than how they write, which means homophones are quite difficult for the average person, and near impossible without thinking about it hard and remembering the rule every time if you're dyslexic.

  • In all seriousness though, you appear to have hyperlexia, I do too and I shared your frustration for many years until I understood that fact and, as a result, sympathized a bit more with those who don't.

    I can find double spaces anywhere in text, I know a word or sentence looks "wrong" just by looking at it without necessarily being able to explain the grammar rule behind it, and my brain stops reading at misspelled words as it can't comprehend them, it can be frustrating at times. It's usually comorbid with neuro-divergence.

    You should probably be nicer to those who aren't blessed with it, the poster above might even be dyslexic and have great difficulty with reading and writing as a result. If that's the case, we should celebrate the fact that most of the words are correct! 🎉

  • The French version makes no specific reference to the either version (boulettes), and it is stated later in the text that the "eatballs" are offered in both meat and vegetarian versions. The text is also full of typos.

    I also couldn't get a reference to "Ikea eatballs" online.

    Racism is a ‘cancer eating away’ at Montreal police, officer says in resignation letter

    globalnews.ca Racism is a ‘cancer eating away’ at Montreal police, officer says in resignation letter - Montreal | Globalnews.ca

    Cmdr. Patrice Vilcéus, a Montrealer of Haitian origin, says he made sure throughout his career not to simply be an observer in the face of racism and racial profiling.

    > >Earlier this month, a Quebec Superior Court judge ruled in a class-action lawsuit that racial profiling is a systemic problem in the Montreal police force, and that the city is responsible for profiling committed by its police officers. Justice Dominique Poulin ordered the City of Montreal to pay $5,000 to people arrested without justification and racially profiled. > > > >The force has also released two reports since 2019 showing that racialized people are disproportionately targeted by police during random street checks.

    Proton Mail (Android / Web / Desktop): Automatic attachment upload to Proton Drive

    Hello!

    As per the title, I think it would be really useful to have an automatic upload and attachment of any items over the 25MB limit to Proton Drive. This is something I sorely miss from Gmail which makes sending some types of emails a pain as I have to first upload it to Drive, create a public link, keep track of all my publicly shared files, and make sure the link works before placing it awkwardly in my email.

    Proton Calendar Android - No multi-account support

    Hello!

    As per the title, Proton Calendar for Android does not appear to support multiple signed in accounts.

    This means I can only get notifications for personal appointments or client meetings, but not both, and the web version never prompts to enable notifications on Android. I am thus liable to miss events on whichever calendar I am not currently signed into.

    This is not an acceptable level of support for a professional suite. Is there a roadmap for when this feature will be added?

    Working with MPI on a hit and run with evidence

    A family member was recently a victim of a hit and run on her parked car. We know there is evidence that is easy to get, but MPI is refusing to work with us.

    A police report was filed, there were eye witnesses, the suspect visited a weed store, got carded there, bought weed, and then performed the hit and run in full view of their camera system with their plate fully visible. The weed store knows who it is.

    However, MPI is showing little interest in actually investigating, and this means the victim will have to pay the $200 deductible for something that wasn't their fault and is easily solvable. They keep pressuring MPI at every call that there is evidence and they just have to go get it (as I actually walked into the weed store to ask questions and asked them to keep aside the video evidence, one of their employees was also hit), but so far they have done nothing.

    Does anyone know of a process that would push MPI to actually investigate such a thing? TIA

    It's also possible but unlikely that they sold user data.
