Poilievre touts anti-vaccine mandate bill while promising 'bodily autonomy' for all Canadians
  • It's not even limited to the poor, anyone who is not in the ruling class gets fucked over. A lawyer making a few hundred thousand a year is getting fucked over and thinks they are on top. People with money don't notice that they are getting fucked over because money makes problems go away.

  • The world came to a grinding halt
  • You are talking like you can get anything out of Google these days. I seriously am using Bing at work. Everyone laugh but do you know who does have their first page full of paid links? This guy.

  • scaling to millions
  • Not going to lie. I have made it really far using Google sheets as a database until I had to move to a full DB. Google Sheets is just an interface to a Google run DB anyways. A lot of the time I would just load sheets(tables) into data structures from a SQL library and use it like a regular database.

  • CBC Says Canada Is “Canary In The Coal Mine” As The Pubcaster Predicts Meta and Alphabet Will Block News Content In Other Countries
  • The bills objective is to give journalists compensation for their work. I think Lemmy actually promotes this because people click on the links to try to read the article directly, instead of viewing them through a social media platform acting as a middleman.

  • Alternative sources for the No Pronouns mod for Starfield
  • There is a prominent movement where people don't want to see LGBTQA+ people anywhere. They don't want queer people to exist in their world. It makes them very mad to be exposed to the existence of LGBTQA+ people.
    I personally think that they are just some queer people in denial, thinking they are going to catch the gay. Those gay thoughts aren't going to go away for these people no matter how they cater their reality.

  • Unity cancels town hall over reported death threats
  • Unity is done for. Nobody is going to start a new project with their product. Devs are risk adverse. Making a game that is original is already a big enough risk for any studio. Why add an infinite amount of risk but building your game on an engine with unstable management. It is even worth retraining people to use a different engine.

  • Starfield hating "games journalists" have reached a new level.
  • I have no idea where people get these unreal expectations from. The game is overall good. With one big 'but'. The engine is very outdated. If it looks this bad on release, just think about how it will look compared to other games 1 year from now.
    It is just awful for a game released in 2023. The character model quality is the same as Fallout 4.

  • par(ule)amedic
  • I don't know if that is a great descriptor for Guelph. Guelph is an answer to the question "what if you took all of the bad parts of Cambridge & Waterloo and make a city with that." Just gross.

  • Lets talk about physics of the speed of spaceship
  • I am very annoyed at spaceship controls. Some attempt at realistic momentum is desperately needed in the game. It just feels so wrong. No magical force should apply inertia to a moving object in space.
    This is the first mod I want.

  • Toronto patient waiting for hospital bed watched for 48 hours as ER staff dealt with flood of sick patients
  • Who knew that severely underfunding healthcare would cause bad healthcare
    Now let's finish the paperwork to create private healthcare companies. Start building some clinics, making sure our friends get all of those sweet government construction contracts. We can even use taxpayer money to fund all of this.

  • The Finnish Security and Intelligence Service blocks [far-right minister] Purra's choice for media advisor role due to China links
  • Unfortunately, totalitarian and oppressive governments have the ability to do whatever they want to their citizens. Expats with relatives living in an unfriendly totalitarian nation are vulnerable to state sponsored extortion. Do you want someone that has a high potential to be exploited in a senior government position? This is an example of the least sinister reason why you would fail a security check. For 1 or 2 years after my divorce, I couldn't get NATO security clearance because people in tenuous financial situations are vulnerable to exploitation. It's a pretty simple concept. With security clearance any risk means you get denied.

  • Poilievre says schools should leave LGBTQ issues to parents
  • I remember when parties had their platforms in a book that they would make before every election. Now some parties don't even bother having a platform and win elections. People are voting for representatives that not only don't care about representing them, but in some cases straight up have comptent for their constituents.
