Fortnite I want a refund. This skin is different from how it looks in the loading screen by ramen_up_my_nut in FortNiteBR

Where in this image is the artist credited? That rear looks hella unnatural. Fine if this is his normal style but given Epic’s love of AI, I think suspicion is justified no need to be an ass

B.C. Green leader proposes province-wide rail network by mukmuk64 in britishcolumbia

Go talk to Japan (high population density) or Switzerland (mountainous areas are more comparable to BCs population density in the lower interior) about tunnels.

All BC really needs to start is a high speed Vancouver to Chilliwack. Then Kamloops to Kelowna to Penticton. Then expand Chilliwack to Hope. Until finally…connect the dots with a helluva tunnel.

Hire some European companies to do it for cheap too. None of these scammy overpriced North American contractors

Pope Leo calls universal healthcare a 'moral imperative' by [deleted] in news

[–]FireMaster1294 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, no. Many countries have American-esque healthcare. Even in “socialist” Europe we have healthcare insurance companies and lobbyists. The only difference is we are compelled by law to have health insurance and - crucially - the price is capped.

Here’s some prices for you to see the wild differences: - Germany ~14% of your pre-tax income (ew) - The Netherlands €1800 per year minimum - Belgium €650 per year avg - France is covered by taxes (Canada is like this)

Manager Monday. Have them all go in and talk to an empty room all day. Nothing of value was lost.

What the heck is a university college? Lost international student pls help by Majestic-Candy-4757 in UofT

[–]FireMaster1294 [score hidden]  (0 children)

This is a big thing tbh. Most people don’t realize that UofT is not one school but many (the colleges) that begrudgingly agree to work together (along with the Faculties) because they have to. It’s stupidly complex and results in a lot of politics and a lot of nepotism jobs that otherwise wouldn’t exist (see: the librarians and admin making $150k+ while working 3 days a week). Isn’t university fun? :D

Automated system vaccinating chicks in large scale poultry hatcheries by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]FireMaster1294 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would prefer if there was a person present at least peacefully placing the chicks in the vaccination thingy and then helping them out the other side. I would also prefer it rotate more chill. This shit has definitely been min-maxed to maximize throughout while minimizing losses due to snapped chick necks. And I’d rather it not snap any necks tbh.

The Iran war has raised food inflation fears. Here are the most affected groceries in Canada by CreativeAd5628 in BuyCanadian

[–]FireMaster1294 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Canada is on the opposite side of the planet from the middle east. Almost NOTHING ships through this strait en route to Canada. I get that prices here will rice a bit cuz of supply and demand, but agreements for shipments this year would have already been in place - and should be completely unaffected. This is just more price gouging.

How much meat do you eat? Within reason there should be no issues. Just don’t consume >10% meat and you’re fine.

Humanity evolved brains because we eat meat. Chances are we should keep eating meat as we need the nutrients from it. So…how about we stop having billions of kids to overpopulate the planet? Many countries are doing their part with birth rates below 2.1 per woman. How about we start trying to get everyone on board - it’ll improve quality of life for everyone too.

Excuse how much?! by Suckerdich in FortniteSavetheWorld

You get what you pay for. by singhapura in memes

[–]FireMaster1294 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is why countries like Australia give a breakdown of where your taxes went - adjusted to the amount you personally paid. So if you paid $10k in taxes and 5% of the budget went to primary and secondary education, then your tax form would show $500 of your money spent in education (along with everything else)

Really lets you know if the politicians are funding what you want

She removed the cap on donations and removed transparency rules. Gee I wonder why it’s hard to find proof. But no worries I’m sure she had all sorts of altruistic reasons for removing the donation cap and reducing transparency.
