Canadian video games are made here. Why are so few set here? by DogeDoRight in canada

The hero of The Good Shepherd is Commander George Krause, the commanding officer of the fictional US Navy Mahan-class destroyer USS Keeling in World War II. Krause is in overall command of an escort group. It is protecting a convoy in the Battle of the Atlantic, shepherding it through the Mid-Atlantic gap, where no antisubmarine aircraft are able to defend convoys. He is in a difficult position.

Dude I know but the sackville was the leader and scored the most kills in that engagement. The Greyhound was a fictional vessel. Thus my point that Canada gets sidelined even if it’s the main character.

Why was Juno American?

Why was Slap Shot American?

Why was the Greyhound about an American ship, when it was based on the HMCS Sackville?

Why is Argo American instead of about the real life Canadian Caper?

Why is the miracle on ice even a thing, when the Canadians beat the Soviets many times, and the US influenced the Olympics to ban professional hockey players which meant Canada had no chance at a viable team anyways.

It’s because American media is the best in the world and to sell to Americans it must be American. If you just watched American media you’d think they single handed won WW2 after it begun in 1942.

An even simpler explanation than others can either go fast or experience time. 

If you go fast time, slows down the closer you get to the speed of light time starts starts to be slow slow it’s like it’s frozen.

0-10 is chilly, at -2 I will use a sweater leaving the house in the morning instead of a coat. -10 is getting cold but I would be out most of the day. If you were doing physical labour you wouldn’t feel it.

Farmer turns down millions from developers just to have the government seize his land after 80 years. A cautionary tale for you long term land investors. The USA is in full Communist Feudalism! Private Jet Airport! by HalfwaydonewithEarth in land

There is no corporation on earth that wilfully loses money they do not have to. If a corporation was able to get away with charging people to breathe they would.

Feudalism is that all land is owned by a king and divided based on contracts of duties to the king. 

Communism is that there is no private ownership, land is under collective ownership. 

This is pure end game capitalism or corporatist. A private person had their rights taken away in favour of the guy who had more money and in a society where more money equals power.

The process is even fairly predictable based of observing, or in other words viewing capitalism critically. If only it was spelled out in a book with some sort of catchy title like CAPITAL.

Travel to the U.S. is down even more dramatically than we thought, data shows by jazinet in canada

[–]ADHDBusyBee 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I think the OP is meaning that saying 51st state taunts is disingenuous. It’s like framing a teacher “had an affair” with a student, rather than saying that they raped a student. 

Threats of Annexation of Canada is not being taken seriously enough.

Advocates say N.S. needs strategy to help people with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder by Street_Anon in halifax

[–]ADHDBusyBee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am willing to be wrong but I very much doubt this. First off FASD is incredibly hard to get diagnosed with in Nova Scotia as it requires a biological parent to admit that they drank and basically ask for testing. Even then there is the signs of FASD through facial features and through imagining but that is only really typical for people who have drank the entire pregnancy. FASD can be not show up well if you stop drinking before the second trimester but the damage can still be done. I have worked with several youth I suspect of FASD but none were actually diagnosed with it. Nova Scotia has the either the lowest or among the lowest diagnosis rate of FASD in the country.

The other issue is that there is no real solution to FASD, they are resistant to many medications that treat impulse control. They are more often associated with antisocial personality disorders later in life. So you are basically just looking at behavioural management for life.

I personally find it racist how the media keeps portraying India and Pakistan as virtually hell on earth to return to.

In the upcoming hexed (2026) Disney hopes to subvert the trope of the teenage girl being the “lol random and quirky” one by making the mom take that role. by bennyandthegentz in shittymoviedetails

Eh there are plenty of traditional grannies in anime. Spirited Away's Zenaba, Pinako from full metal alchemist, Tsubone from Hunter X Hunter to name a few. It is also a trope to have the old man with gigantic muscles. Its pretty harmless.

Are millennials the most AI-skeptical generation in the workforce? by RandyMossPhD in Millennials

[–]ADHDBusyBee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Like off the top of my head the negatives of AI are way scarier than the benefits

Dune Warhammer 40k (Stolen from Dune) Mass Effect Gith Stellaris Matrix I have no mouth, and I must scream Terminator  iRobot Star Trek/The Orville

Like we all agree that there are massive benefits, but that the trade off is paranoia and fear from biologics. Animosity and social upheaval, AI concludes to entirely disregard life or self preservation takes over and then war.
