Yeah well they can go fuck themselves

I’m proud to be from a country that wrote a sternly written statement

Yeah, I’m also going to guess the original writer speaks more than one language, English not being their first, which is most likely more than the second person could say.

As someone learning a second language (French), this sort of thing is what makes me so nervous to actually use what I’ve learned…

I guess it’s mostly for their cell services to avoid SIM jacking and stuff. But I agree

I’m the opposite of both of you. The build quality is good and the OS is good. I love having a familiat UNIX system while also having a polished desktop environment that supports 4k scaling very well (though the polish has been lacking a lot lately)

The issue for me is the insane price of their computers and the fact that you can’t (officially) install MacOS on your own hardware. I have a Linux desktop and a MBP but I’d run MacOS on both if it was officially supported

Even ISPs do this where I am. You don’t have to utter anything specifically but if they detect your voice being drastically different from what they have on file, they’ll lock you out before you even talk to a real person. Not sure how I feel about it tbh

Not downplaying progress but damn it’s messed up that they were ever paid considering how cheap phone plans are. Social isolation is not supposed to be part of the “rehabilitation” process. Was ready to shit on the US here (as is our favourite pasttime) but apparently Canada’s doing this shit too…

Palestinians desperate for in the Al-Rimal neighbourhood of central Gaza City, on Sunday. Israel has routinely attacked Palestinians seeking food aid.

I’m really glad The Guardian’s not whitewashing what Israel is doing and actually calling it out. It’s getting harder and harder for news outlets to cover up the genocide

I like WFH where there’s no dress code and pants are optional

Huh I guess replit pivoted hard into AI. I remember it just being a web IDE sorta thing

I actually completely forgot it was a thing. I haven’t heard anything about it either since it was announced

I have (and love!) Manor Lords! Admittedly I haven’t played it since it first came out though. Has the dev added more content? I remember later game feeling a bit directionless

Anno is the only series I can’t hold myself off from buying :(. Somehow it doesn’t actually feel like a Ubisoft game

Honestly, at first glance I kind of laughed at this thing but the more I think about it, the more I want it. I have an e-scooter that I don’t use often(I end up using rentals more often than not) just because I have to store it in my basement but this would fit by my door no problem

they want you to sit on a metal box

Seriously, I don’t know how we get anything done. It’s gotta be pure luck

It’s even more confusing when you’re Canadian and both formats are supported

Yeah, it’s hard but so is living under a dictatorship with no appreciation of science. The US has only really cared about improving their ability to kill people for a long while anyway

for scientists, industry, and space enthusiasts bracing for severe cuts requested by the Trump administration.

Honestly they should just leave the USA. I’m sure the Canadian Space Agency would be happy to have them

Oh wow I missed that entirely. That worked perfectly, thank you!
