i mean it’s not your refusal to play pokémon schmirtle & thromble that will plunge nintendo to obscurity

at that point, if the game interests you, may as well pirate it

of course they are. they aid genocide abroad, why wouldn’t they do it at home too?

“largely unaffected”? these coups are how the US steals resources from south america!

you benefit from these coups every time you buy a banana or chocolate.

our education system is in ruins, our healthcare system is even worse, people can’t pay for housing and groceries, and despite tons of budget cuts everywhere the provincial debt has never been worse.

…but thankfully, the CAQ is here to fight the real issues: those darn Muslims doing childcare!!!

oh no the public prayer ban thing is 100%, wholly just Islamophobia. the people who want the ban have already said they’re fine with catholic public praying.

i’ll note that Muslims doing prayers in public in quebec started pretty recently, and most of it is grieving during pro-Palestine protests.

that’s what quebec wants to ban: people grieving for Palestine. it’s sickening

lmao catholic private schools receive public funds in quebec too

why do actual secularism when you could just attack Muslim people 🙃

i just wish OSM was more complete… it’s fine for big cities, but when you live in small rural areas it’s practically useless. my village only has its roads mapped, nothing else.

(and yes i know you can edit the map. and that it’s the entire point of OSM. i know that. but it takes a ton of effort, and it’s an ongoing effort because cities change!)

OSM contributors, you are amazing and cherished and your work does not go unappreciated. i just wish there was more of us…

the machine used to manage schedules at the job i had this summer used windows XP

you can, and you should

english has no authority that regulates the language, it’s up to us to do the spelling reforms

i spell it wensday :3

i like what they do but giving donations to a for-profit company that already sells stuff seems a bit silly to me

honestly for most people i feel like AI has already a solidified use, “the magic thing that answers all your questions and generates pretty pictures*”

compare that to NFTs which had strictly no use for the average person. i think what we’re seeing with AI is quite different

will the hype maintain itself when the AI bubble bursts, the VC money dries up, free options get removed and paid options significantly ramp up in price? that remains to be seen

*(the fact that the answers and pictures are often garbage is irrelevant. as long as they’re good enough often enough, it has value to many people)

it’s not helped by the fact that there’s a bajillion websites claiming to be Eden’s website…

half this community is “${game} released on steam!”, these are just as much ads as this post is

often I think to myself “damn, i should buy one of these dual screen handhelds to emulate 3DS games!”

…and then i remember that i have a 3DS lol

right now im on Fedora KDE! it works well enough for me, it’s modern, it looks good, and most importantly (for me) it supports fractional scaling well (my laptop needs fractional scaling and that’s been the thorn in my foot for a while)

many people will go back, but of these, i’m sure many will also come back eventually

i’ve tried a bunch of distros in my last 2 years with windows. many didn’t satisfy my needs at the time, so i stayed on windows.

but now, it’s been over a year since I definitely switched to linux, and over 6 months since i nuked (accidentally, but shhh) my windows partition. and i don’t plan on going back anytime soon.

i know people here hate nintendo (for good reasons), but peeps, the switch 2 is already one of the fastest selling consoles of all time. nintendo knows what they’re doing, they’re making a bunch of switch 2’s because people buy them.

i too wish for their failure but y’all are setting yourselves up for disappointment

…like everyone else in Gaza

but they don’t like to mention that part, weirdly enough

Project status: archived

oof

i know Flare is another client for Linux, which does adapt itself to window size so it should work on mobile

tho it can’t be used as a primary device easily (so you’ll need signal on another phone) and from past experience, the linking can be pretty iffy

we’re gonna need to get rid of the open-air mines before doing any alliance

canada always firmly stood with the american imperialists for our own gain, i doubt south america would trust us just now that the US is starting to show us it’s back
