Yeah okay, it’s always a distraction until it affects you. You guys said it was a distraction when Trump threatened to invade Canada/Greenland/Panama/etc but it doesn’t feel like a distraction when you live in one of those countries
Also I’m not saying any of this shit isn’t fucked up. I’m just taking it seriously as should you
Getting really sick of people saying everything is a distraction. They don’t give a shit, why would they? Would it have mattered if they didn’t do this? Everything they’re doing is insane and fascist. What does it matter if one insane fascist thing distracts from the other?
we’ll just launch the login feature this month and put out signup next cycle
I have an m3 pro MBP but I’m still sad about the end of Intel support just for what it means about Hackintosh
I rent an old townhouse and I constantly get letters asking me if I’m willing to sell for “all cash”. I always laugh at the idea of going along with it and taking the money
Saaame. I created an account on the new Piefed but I’ll only fully switch over once Voyager supports it. I’ll be sad to lose my two year user history on Lemmy.ca though :(. I wish account migrations that kept comment/post history and account age were supported
we should treat trans people like human beings
Yeah that’s it time to vote for fascism
I’m not sure what your point is? I never said cars weren’t leading traffic. I think we’ve both kind of lost the plot here but my point was that cars aren’t a requirement to live. If they are in your city or area (outside of rural), then you should advocate for better transit and urban design.
Also note that I never said cars should be outright banned or anything of that sort
Okay, then advocating for better urban planning and less urban sprawl. Unless you live in a rural area, you shouldn’t be required to go into debt to pay for a multi ton machine to be able to buy food. It’s odd that only in the last hundred years humans have stopped being able to function day to day without vehicles.
So the answer would be to advocate for better public transport
A bit more than friends of Epstein. She was the one who got Epstein women and girls to traffic wasn’t she?
Yeah, welcome to the norm for gluten free things (that tastes good) 🥲. I’ve been getting it just because I’ve craved normal cereal since being diagnosed with celiac but it’s for sure hard in the bank account
It looks like a little guy saluting 🫡
Ukraine is killing it recently o7
It’s definitely a name I haven’t heard in ages
What progressives? Are you talking about the US? You guys don’t really have any progressives. The NDP or Green parties here in Canada would do a lot more to help the homeless than our current leading party (LPC)
no meaningful social service growth has happened in ANY of our lifetimes
We just got tax payer funded dental care for a large portion of the population. I only bring this up because I hate the generalisation that we’re all American on the internet
I swear every thread has the same 100 people in it so my upvote counter is pretty high for most people. Wondering what it’s at for other people on Lemmy. You tell me my vote count and I’ll tell you what I have for you :)
It's not for anything important but I host a stupid discord bot trained on my friend group's server chat history. It's pretty much just a lobotomized ChatGPT but it's a lot of fun. I'm looking to move off of OpenAI's infrastructure though to something that doesn't give money to the USA but it seems like everything is American.
Basically, I'm just looking for somewhere that I can finetune and run custom models. Does anyone know of such a place?
GameStop Canada says it has been acquired by French-Canadian entrepreneur Stephan Tetrault from the video game retailer’s struggling parent company.
TORONTO — GameStop Canada says it has been acquired by French-Canadian entrepreneur Stephan Tetrault from the video game retailer’s struggling parent company.
Officially named Electronics Boutique Canada Inc., GameStop Canada says it will relaunch its 185 stores as EB Games Canada — a name associated with retail gaming from bygone decades.
Tetrault is the founder of Montreal-area-based toy manufacturer Imports Dragon and co-owner of American action figure-maker McFarlane Toys, and last month became a partner at Canadian chain Mastermind Toys.
U.S.-based GameStop Corp. said in February it was looking to sell its Canadian and French operations as it evaluates its international assets and doubles down on cost-cutting.
GameStop was one of the companies at the centre of the “meme stock” craze on Wall Street, which saw struggling brands’ share prices soar as retail investors made risky bets.
Its sales last year declined 27 per cent to $3.82 billion, though net income shot up to $131.3 million versus $6.7 million in 2023.
! The original building was unfortunately gutted by a fire in March 1922 leaving only the outer walls. Architect Louis Parant was commissioned for the reconstruction who decided to build an entirely new building which included a remodelling of the Mansard roof into a new Beaux-Arts inspired model. The new building opened in 1926

A transformational shift in city zoning rules has taken another step forward, but some councillors worry people won't pay attention until it starts upending the look of their neighbourhoods.
The second draft of a massive rewrite of Ottawa's comprehensive zoning bylaw went through council's planning and housing committee on Monday, with only minor changes from the first.
It still axes rules that force developers to build a minimum number of parking spaces in new buildings, and only slightly walks back major increases to building heights and housing density in much of the city.
Central Chambers was built between 1890 and 1893 and designed by John James Browne of Montreal, an example of Queen Anne Revival commercial architecture. Formerly serving as an office for the Canadian Atlantic Railway, it now houses the National Capital Commission

It's not the fanciest ever but it's a building I walk by often and I always stop to look at the brickwork. The amount of detail that went into these town houses is just remarkable. Sorry for the low quality images, they're the only ones I could find. (Source)
I have a bunch of domains on NameCheap but would like to move them to a non American company, preferably Canadian but just not American is good enough honestly.
What are you guys using?
Peter Navarro is pushing negotiators to discuss reworking country’s boundaries, The Telegraph can reveal
A top White House official has threatened to redraw the Canadian border amid Donald Trump’s ambition to turn the country in America’s “51st state”.
Peter Navarro, one of Donald Trump’s closest advisers, is pushing US negotiators to discuss reworking the border with their Canadian counterparts, The Telegraph can reveal.
“Navarro recommended revising the Canada-US border, which is just crazy and dangerous,” a source close to negotiations told The Telegraph.
A city councillor is pushing the City of Ottawa to suspend all of its accounts on the social media platform X, which she calls "very negative," rife with misinformation and tied to the threat of punishing tariffs against Canada.
Orléans West-Innes Coun. Laura Dudas has given notice of a motion she will make to council's finance and corporate services committee next week. It asks city staff to draw up a plan to suspend the accounts and migrate to other platforms.
In her motion, she said X and owner Elon Musk no longer uphold the values of "transparency, impartiality, respect and accountability," which Dudas views as core principles for the city.
I remember reading an article, I think on a substack site, about how the author expected (I think) the rise of facism in the US but not being lead by such pathetic losers?/nerds?/geeks?. I can't seem to find the article but it was funny and relatable and I really want to find the link again.
It might have also been an article on The Verge, 404media or maybe Vice too
Hi, I just created the community for my hometown on Lemmy.ca and noticed that within minutes it already has 35 subscribers. How does that work? The town is tiny, I'd be surprised if there were even 35 people from Renfrew on Lemmy at all, let alone eagerly waiting for the community to be created
Hi, I'm pretty sure my corydora has cotton wool disease on its top fin and I'm not really sure what to do. We've had him quarantined for nearly two weeks and are daily treating with PimaFix but it doesn't seem to be helping at all, rather it's growing worse.
The good news is that he seems completely oblivious to it all... he still swims around like normal and scrounges around for food.
Is there anything else I can do?
Edit: I've tested the water and all parameters seem to be fine. No nitrite, nitrate or ammonia and the pH seems average
Late update: after treating the tank with melafix for a couple weeks, his "wool" just fell off and what seems to be his wound seems to have just healed. I don't know if it was just luck or what but he's made a full recovery :)
I'm a Canadian working for an American company and I'm wondering how affected I'm going to be if (when) Trump goes all in on his tarrifs. My company does have a Canadian office and I believe is incorporated here as well as the USA (I'm a software dev, not a business major so idk how it works fully). Would I feel any of the effects of tarrifs, minus the cost of everything skyrocketing?
For reference, I'm remote and the office we have is on the other side of the country in Vancouver. Not sure that really adds anything to the question but felt compelled to add it

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says his party will bring forward a motion of non-confidence to bring down the Trudeau government in the next sitting of the House of Commons.
"The Liberals don't deserve another chance," Singh wrote in a letter on Friday. "That's why the NDP will vote to bring this government down."
