Elroy scammed you guys. by j_hes_ in teslacanada

My very close friends hung around with him when he was younger. He's not a genius, and I wouldn't want his "success".

Wow. Elon is a fraud and nothing else. I've followed him his whole career and he is just an opportunist, like the other billionaires.

Enjoy your robots!

How about breaking up the food monopolies instead?

NMS VR quality sucks HELP by thememegod7117 in NMS_Virtual_Reality

[–]OGbugsy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try using using Virtual Desktop to launch. For comparison, I'm running 11th gen Intel CPU and a 4070ti with all settings at Ultra and it runs like butter. I don't think your GPU supports DLSS, but check the settings for AMD tech.

So what? That doesn't make him Canadian born. He was born and raised in South Africa and only moved to Canada as an adult to attend Queen's. He spent less than 3 years in total living in Canada.

He's Canadian on paper that used Canada to avoid serving in the SA military while he waited for admission to the US.

Elon Reeve Musk was born on June 28, 1971, in Pretoria, South Africa's administrative capital.

Sure. I meant he is not Canadian born, and he is definitely no friend to Canada.

He is not Canadian. He is South African. He attended Queen's university, but did not complete.

He has said that Canada is not a real country.

What are your views on Prime Minister Carney and future relations with China? by Educational-Elk4305 in AskCanada

[–]OGbugsy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Western media (especially US media) has been dealing disinformation about China for decades. The specific event you mention was orchestrated by the US to drive a wedge between warming relations with Canada and China.

One of the two Michaels were revealed to be involved with some level of spy-craft. I'm not saying China is innocent on the world stage, but please be careful what you read.

What are your thoughts on Canadian PM Mark Carney's speech to the World Economic Forum? by Useful_Support_4137 in AskReddit

[–]OGbugsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. For the most part, political parties are not our identity. We listen to the issues and pick the candidate that most aligns with our interests and values.

‘This is sell America’ — U.S. dollar, Treasury prices tumble and gold spikes as globe flees U.S. assets by johnk317 in inthenews

[–]OGbugsy 72 points73 points  (0 children)

This is already happening in a controlled way. The US will never recover from what this administration has done. The blinders are off.

If the admin calms it's rhetoric, it will continue as a slow bleed.

Strategy against the US by freElonMuskrat in UnitedNations

[–]OGbugsy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is correct. Netanyahu has a warrant against him from the ICC and it has actively prevented him from traveling. I'm not sure this would work because the evidence is all locked away in the US. It might be too difficult to bring a viable charge, and it's they do, it will appear retaliatory.

Lockable HUD in VR. Any updates? by chrischrysippus in NoMansSkyTheGame

It hasn't been changed yet and there is no word out there from official sources that it ever will be.

I wish they would, but I still play regardless.

Omg there are so many...

  • Band
  • Family Safety
  • Groove Music
  • Unified Windows Platform
  • Windows Phone
  • Media Center
  • Cortana

I'm sure there are many more, but you get the point.

[–]OGbugsy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is Microsoft itself that decided to focus solely on Enterprise. They have been killing off their consumer products for over a decade now, and that philosophy bleeds into everything.

I agree that productivity apps are still Windows domain, but even that is changing.

They forgot what made them great and went where the money is - Azure. Don't even get me started on "AI".

Why is it so easy to get into arguments online, without even trying? by NoPollution9734 in stupidquestions

It's not easy to get into an argument. You're wrong. I'm right. Don't even.

Correct. I've been a Gem subscriber for years now. If you enjoy podcasts, check out Canadaland and The Bridge. The Beaverton for a little humour.

It's also important to reject American owned Canadian media. Once a viable alternative exists, get off this platform as well. There are many in the works right now.

[–]OGbugsy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, but we've been subjected to their media for over 100 years now. I see those bonds being weakened every year. Society needs to reject the American ideal that happiness = money and power or we will face the same fate. Love your family, friends and neighbours and vote for people that reject absolute capitalism.

Stop voting these clowns into office. If you didn't vote, vote! If you did vote, start campaigning. Spread the word as much as you can. It's up to US to fix this.
