I get what you’re saying, but the Reform Party was a far-right Christian nationalist party that was against gay marriage, any immigration that would alter the “ethnic makeup” of Canada, and had a problem of attracting openly racist supporters. Not the greatest example of a small party seeing a surge in support!

They do. They original Estonian novelists and philosophers who worked on the game as an art project had the rights to it stolen out from under them by greedy businessmen after the project ended up becoming a huge hit.

“Now that we’ve heard from a respected expert in this field, let’s balance things out by listening to an idiot.”

do you seriously think this is and will always be about actual misinformation, and not pro-palestine speech and similar things?

No. That’s why the Supreme Court exists. If it wasn’t about actual misinformation and just removing speech the administration didn’t like then the Supreme Court could reverse the action. This is literally how the government is supposed to work.

It’s called xenophobia, the fear and dislike of anything foreign. Some people believe that if your group isn’t dominant it will be dominated, and peaceful coexistence isn’t possible between different groups.

These people are afraid that, if the English language isn’t forced onto other people, one day other people will force a foreign language onto them.

For nerds like me. The female name is short for Brianna or Gabriella. The cheese name is from the French region of Brie where it originated in. That region got its name from the Gaulish word briga meaning “hill” or “height”.

Yes, also a running gag in Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End

Why did he fail to become president?

They hired a gay actor specifically so they could shoot this one scene.

The Elder Scrolls video game series has a race of cat people known as Khajiit. They’re often found as wandering merchants and repeat the line in OP when you talk to them. Video

How do you pay $2.3 billion in carbon tax rebates and not have anyone know about it? It’s amazing how terrible the communication is.

Fuck your Mitsubishi, I’ve a horse outside!

Kowai yo…

Either that, or every company has woefully underpaid/incompetent IT people

It’s this one. Cox Communications, one of the largest telecommunications companies in the US with $11 billion in revenue, recently patched a bug on their self-serve portal that allowed anyone to access any customer’s profile. The bug was that server requests weren’t being authenticated. If you entered the right info into the URL bar you’d be given a page with anyone’s customer info. No login needed.

This is going to affect hard working Canadians (who make more than $250,000 a year in capital gains)!

Chess player Andrea Botez started an onlyfans page where she posted videos of herself being mated.

Terrible location really. What were they thinking?

Do you have your languages set to both “Undetermined” and “English” in your settings? I had a problem seeing some posts with only one language selected.

I also enjoyed the quote from a man saying “you don’t see little girls playing with model planes” as proof that women genetically aren’t meant to be pilots in an article denying the industry has an inclusion problem that needs to be addressed.

“We’ve noticed a lack of women becoming pilots so we created a DEI department to see if there might be some things we’re doing that is discouraging women from seeking this as a career”

“Hiring women pilots!? How are women going to fly a plane!? They can’t even drive a car! We’re going to get more plane crashes if we hire women as pilots! They should just be a stewardess! And what happened to those short skirts they used to wear?”

“…well good news is we figured out the problem in record time!”

Why on this overwhelmingly zealous communist site are people upvoting this bullheaded victim blaming free hand of the market put down of consumers?

If you complain about Windows having ads, telemetry, and security concerns on this site, you will be told to install Linux. They’re not using a bullheaded victim blaming free hand of the market put down of consumers. They’re telling you there is an alternative that has what you want. You don’t need the government to regulate operating systems. You can just install any one of the many Linux distros.

This is the exact same thing. Stop buying video games with anti-consumer DRM. Video games without these features already exist and are actually the norm. It really isn’t complicated.

You’ve definitely been burnt by these practices at least once and learned better right? So why should we not lobby for change?

Yes. I loved the Hitman series. It now has always online DRM. I haven’t bought a Hitman game since 2012. My life hasn’t been affected negatively in any way. I still have a huge library and backlog of other games without DRM. What would I lobby the government for? Remove DRM from Hitman? What a terribly insignificant thing to concern myself with. I have a backlog of other games to catch up on.
