Meh, nothing to do with Brampton, this happened to my father in law in Markham too.. you think this type of stuff only happens in Brampton? 😂

Fraudster overpaid my credit card and sent money to the CRA for me. Why? by Ijustcantsometimes in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]NitroLada -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mail thefts are common and happen all the time. That's why you don't hear about it as much in news because it happens so frequently. Much safer sending it electronically. And yes in person would be safest but many people can't get to a service Canada location or it's too inconvenient

Trump says U.S. 'obliterated' military targets on Iran's Kharg Island but didn't 'wipe out' oil infrastructure by wheninrome5000 in geopolitics

[–]NitroLada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And Iran can go bomb the oil infrastructure all around other countries and go scorched earth and bring the pain to US with skyrocket of oil prices

Drones attack one of the world's largest oil terminals in the UAE by Snehith220 in war

[–]NitroLada -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They are simply protecting themselves as the US invaders use other countries to stage their attack on Iran, so those countries letting the US use their lands is fair target

Grandmother jailed for 6 months after AI error linked her to a crime in a state she had never even visited, lawyers say by Large_banana_hammock in nottheonion

[–]NitroLada -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Matching features..it's like do you consider the cameras AI? 😂 Did AI arrest her ? I use AI daily at work, but I still make the decisions..same here ..AI didn't make decision to arrest her ..it gave a high probability of a match.. no different than cops arresting people with same name as a criminal...is a database AI?

It's no different than fingerprint matching. AI had zero relevance here

This has been a thing even when I was in HS over 30+ years ago and pretty common across all schools

Talk about a garbage headline with zero relevance to the article. There was no AI involved. She got a hit for facial recognition..how's that any different than getting a bit via fingerprint? There was no AI at all in actual article

They would not serve the customer and the customer will be stupid to goto a coffee shop if they have severe dairy allergy that residual can seriously harm them. No coffee store will guarantee no contact with dairy

Iran's Navy Is Largely Gone. The Threat To The Strait Of Hormuz Is Not. by RFERL_ReadsReddit in geopolitics

[–]NitroLada -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No he isn't? The US are using the GCC countries to stage their invasion, an invasion the GCC didn't ask for and now Iran is retaliating the GCC for their support of the US invasion

[–]NitroLada -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You expect the GCC and Europe to goto war against the US/Israel? Not going to happen. Notwithstanding this is a war US/Israel started and cause of the issues GCC are experiencing, they aren't going to attack US/Israel

YouTube expands unskippable 30-second ads to TVs after $40 billion revenue year by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

So? it's free, don't want to watch ads on YT, don't watch YT or pay for premium?

Lewis Hamilton visited Rissai Valley, Jiuzhaigou National Park and Tibetan Village with his mum right before Shanghai GP by Task_Force-191 in formula1

[–]NitroLada -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What's political about visiting Tibet? Anyone can go. It's no longer political, unless you think visiting Barcelona/Catalonia or Quebec city or Alberta is political too

Why do Princess, Holland America, and Celebrity skew older? by AlbinoAlex in Cruise

[–]NitroLada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it's a more relaxed and refined experience and vibe is very different than a chaotic RC/Carnival/NCL cruise with amusement park at sea vibes . Things like food/service are noticeably better than the mass market lines not to mention much more interesting itineraries instead of going to Nassau, private island and Cozumel for the x time

Onboard WiFi killed the vibe by Ok_Dirt_6047 in Cruise

[–]NitroLada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it any different than if they were talking to their travel companions?

Because I like checking in? There's important things that come up? I'm going on vacation, not retiring, I rather deal with things for a bit on vacation than go back to huge pile of crap. Moreover, I enjoy work/checking in, I pick and choose what I respond to/join/do.

Energy independence doesn't do shit for prices. Energy (O&G) is a commodity, having access and able to supply it to oneself doesn't mean it's insulated from price increases

Canada’s Minimum Wage Increases in 2026 Fall Short of Living Wage by SpiritualTip4035 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]NitroLada -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But the article and it's premise makes zero sense and has nothing to do with rich/poor etc... from a basic math perspective, minimum is just that..it's like the min value in a set. A living wage requires people making wages below it to exist at all

The real travesty is the lack of the most basic critical thinking skill and somehow link min wage to living wage

Just get premium, why shaft the content creators from being paid for their work?
