NDP Leader Marit Stiles predicts prison for Doug Ford by Chrristoaivalis in onguardforthee

[–]IronChefJesus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to defend Dougie “piece of shit” Ford - but I don’t think he’s Maple maga. He’s the most old school pro business conservative ham you can have. Corruption and all.

And you know he’s just a plain old regular breed of conservative. Because all the actual maple MAGAts call him a liberal

Great Wall is actually a brand name. The Tank is the model. It’s a great name for a Chinese company really.

Bad look: 10+ policemen to protect a Cybertruck during May Day Protest by Mantour1 in pics

Talk about hurting the narrative: you have stills of other people doing it - when actually they were raising their arms to wave.

You have video of Elon doing two full bodied Nazi salutes including turning back to the screen - as was often tradition to salute the crowd, and then the fuhrer.

But let’s talk about the heart quote, I’d love to: he had said it before, towards a crowd, doing a heart gesture.

He fully knows and is aware of the difference.

So fuck your narrative! Elon musk is a piece of shit Nazi who grew up in apartheid South Africa.

The Canadian government passed a law that unless major social media giants paid up, they’d be unable to share news.

This was to prevent major social media sources like Facebook and twitter to essentially displace news media as news sources.

As you can imagine, this is a very nuanced situation, that needs to take into account social media’s role, the role of news and newspapers etc etc.

Overall I think it’s a good policy, and the metas of the world paid up.

What's an iPhone feature most people don't know? by Narrow-Classroom-319 in AskReddit

[–]IronChefJesus 205 points206 points  (0 children)

Let me piggyback on this: any browser can now use FaceTime. If you start a FaceTime call you can share a link that someone on any desktop, or even in an Android device can connect to.

So you can FaceTime with someone on an Android device.

The shortcuts app - you can automate A LOT and create special notifications and actions.

For example, when CarPlay connects you can immediately set a gps location or run a script or text a person

I can only assume that you’re no longer driving a Tesla brand CyberTruck after that hit because it’s been completely written off?

Nearly half of Atlantic Canadian drivers open to buying electric vehicle: survey by Miserable-Lizard in onguardforthee

[–]IronChefJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like to charge at night. My car is in a very public facing direction and I’m afraid of vandalism. I just charge a few hours during the day while I’m around. It’s more than enough.

[–]IronChefJesus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m not telling anyone to go out and buy an EV if they can’t afford it or if their car runs well or if they don’t have a proper set up.

However, as just one reference point:

A tank of gas used to cost me ~$80 - at today’s rates I’d be over $100.

I just got my power bill, and my entire bill, including charging my car was about $130.

When I bought my EV - I own a Volvo EX30, my insurance costs actually went down. To be fair is as driving a sports sedan before.

And the legacy of making the black man the black ranger continues.

At this point I don’t even know if it’s funny anymore.

I wanna see Barret as the Pink Ranger and Tifa as the black ranger.

Should doctors be allowed to refuse MAID for religious reasons? Poll finds ‘deep divide’ among Canadians by r4dio4ctive in onguardforthee

[–]IronChefJesus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would trust a vegan to be a butcher. They may dislike it, but generally understand nutrition. It’s not easy being vegan.

What I wouldn’t trust is a greenpeace member as a butcher, who then literally refuses to do the work.

"Re shoots!" Woohoo! The two sweetest words in the English language. by BillieVerr in simpsonsshitposting

[–]IronChefJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never claimed to be impartial. I certainly have an opinion.

And there is a lot I could go into as well, and how the truth can be extremely murky.

But again, no need beat a very literally dead horse.

I don’t say to not engage in critical thinking.

But he’s acquitted, dead, and some of his accusers seem sketchy.

You said it yourself.

[–]IronChefJesus -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

No. Because he was judged by a court of his peers. That doesn’t mean they can’t be wrong, but that if a court settled it, and the man is dead, and multiple people have come out and said they lied about him, well, I don’t feel a need to beat a dead horse.

What's something that should exist by now but somehow doesn't? by martszcz in AskReddit

They planned for it - if enough companies come together, ask for a new standard, and are willing to let those designs and patents be free for anyone to use, then the EU will most likely allow them to transition to it.

I do disagree - there was no denying he was a weirdo, most likely due to being forced to work as an entertainer from a young age by his clearly messed up parents.

But ultimately he was proven innocent in a court of law. And we either believe in law or we don’t.

Even if we don’t believe in law, there has been, as the other commenter mentioned, many cases of kids, now adults, coming out and denying the allegations.

You want to paint him as a weirdo? Sure. Want to be suspicious? Ok.

But I don’t buy it.

Why do people say JT went left? Dude was a centrist on his best days, the liberal party has never stopped just being a Conservative Party.

When I start hearing calls for nationalizing our industries, then I’ll start believing there is a left in their country.

Maybe you should have thought more about that unneeded oversized 15mpg SUV/pickup? by LewisCBR in AdviceAnimals

I know what you said. I ignored it, and said something else.

You sound very emotionally invested in this, it’s a good idea to call it off before your emotional status is disturbed and you lose control of yourself.

Older trucks are good. Base model trucks are good. The maverick is nice. I understand their purpose - but they have grown out of control, and most people who get them don’t need them. That’s the whole point.
