I want to stay ontop of the news for this whole conflict/genocide but this shit is dépressing the hell outta me. I don’t understand how anybody could treat other human beings the way Isreal is in this.

Edit: especially children like what the fuck

No, honestly it’s probably the opposite of a valuable trait in this case tbh

Canada says similar but it’s looking like we’ll vote in our own (more coherant) Trump anyway

I gotta visit London

It’s really fast, has nice vim keybindings and has the potential to be a great open source VSCode alternative.

I don’t use it yet since it doesn’t have a built in Python debugger but I’ve been watching it closely. I really want to switch to it someday soon

You’d think so, but my city’s subreddit used to advocate for transit, better support for the homeless, healthcare etc and generally be very left leaning. They still are some of the time, but I’ve started seeing a lot of upvoted comments very literally calling for the implementation of drug use policies (ie death) from places like Saudi Arabia or the Philippines.

I guess it’s possible it’s part of the Western move right ward but it’s jarring. I get it, the city’s drug problem is at its current worst, but advocating for the actual murder of users is insane and I can’t believe comments like that are at the top of threads. Even just a year ago those comments would be downvoted out of existence

It is weird. The left leaning Canadian subreddit (r/onguardforthee) is generally pro Palestine but my city’s subreddit is generally pro Israel. I’ve been watching my city’s subreddit move right politically quite quickly.

Something I’ve noticed is that reddit as a whole seems to have gotten a lot more right wing since the whole API stuff. I’m not sure if it’s actually because of users leaving, or if moderation took a huge hit and it’s kind of snow balling into hateful commenting becoming normal.

I wish Canadian public transport sucked as much as Germany’s

Good bot

I played through Demon’s Souls on a ps3 emulator and then the PS5 version. The PS3 version with a 60fps+1440p mod is great but the new version is still worth getting a PS5 for imo

Yes, For example, youth cannabis use halved in Canada after legalization. Also, when I was in HS, people were smoking even though it’s illegal under the age of 18. People would just buy cigarettes from reserves and sell them to each other. If made illegal, people will just find other means to get it.

Prohibition doesn’t work but better education does.

I live in downtown Ottawa and did during the convoy too. There’s often protests going on down here considering it’s the capital, but this one was not the same. I and everyone else down here faced constant harassment whenever we left our houses and had to listen to horns blaring 24/7. People were assaulted for just wearing a mask on the street, business windows broken for having pride flags, and roads blocked for 3 weeks straight.

People here say it was an occupation rather than a protest and it really did feel like it.

I see it on both sides but I don’t consider it anything other than a meme. It’s the context of its use that might make it alt right imo

I’ve been seeing 404 around more often! Didn’t know it was these guys

Weird. I’m on an iPhone 14 Pro and it used to work fine but it hasn’t in quite a while. It doesn’t work in both my in app browser (Safari) nor Firefox (tbf also Safari in the backend). I checked on my desktop and it works there

I haven’t been able to open this site on my phone in a while. It always gives me a repeating captcha that never let’s me in

Man the US price is so much cheaper than everywhere else. And even at the US price it seems way too expensive.

Is it? I get 1.5Gbps for $80/mo no caps and I checked my tiny hometown and they have similar prices. This is in Ontario around Ottawa
