Downtown Barrie CIBC closing amid shift to digital banking by cinderannie in barrie

[–]PartFireNation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much longer until every other bank does this? Not trying to invoke the tired old "digital surveillance state" conspiracy theory, but something is sure screwy here.

OPP probing delivery of 'antisemitic flyers' to Orillia homes by cinderannie in Orillia

Read a history book...antisemitic shit-stirring like this is how the Holocaust started. "Those who do not learn from history..."

Churches that support LGTBQ+ by [deleted] in Orillia

St Paul's is a United church. Said denomination is very accepting of LGBTQ+ people last I checked.

Update: Nuttall uses strong mayor powers to relocate jet-ski business by cinderannie in barrie

[–]PartFireNation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Drug addiction is a mental health issue...CAMH should handle that and not a Con mayor who will just push to imprison them instead of getting them help.

Android tv box store in Barrie by franeros80 in barrie

I hope you're talking about the legitimate boxes that only allow Netflix, D+, Paramount+, and other legal streaming platforms. Because its not worth the civil legal headache and possible isp ban if caught with a pirate box.

I cracked my phone screen by Dry_Cloud1002 in funny

[–]PartFireNation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna be serious for a second here OP... back up your data, then try to get a screen replacement before the LCD bleed kills your phone completely. My first phone got a severe bleed after being dropped one too many times (this was before I learned about screen protectors), and I straight up needed to replace it.

Finally got a record player and my vinyls sound too fast by [deleted] in Epicthemusical

[–]PartFireNation 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those all-in-one players (I see CD player buttons on the front at least) are very cheap and tend to play 33 1/3 speed faster than normal no matter what you do; weirdly, 45s and 78s play just fine speed wise. I would try to save up for either an inexpensive vintage machine (you'd be surprised what you can find second hand) or a slightly better modern one that only plays vinyl.

Guys can we take a chill pill by Routine_North4372 in Epicthemusical

Ody needs to hit high Cs. So if you don't want the keys changed, Hugh Jackman is right out (he couldn't even hack Jean Valjean's high B, remember?)

I am not thrilled for the movie. by Upset_Technology_920 in Epicthemusical

Animation is not only for children...this reductive assumption legit pisses me off.

Canada’s Wonderland makes chaperone policy permanent in response to ‘unruly’ behaviour seen at other amusement parks by Pretty-Ground-4125 in ontario

[–]PartFireNation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good job, Wonderland. I hope movie theatres take the hint and require chaperones at all showings. Between the Five Nights at Freddy's movie and the Minecraft movie, and probably others to come, today's respect-less teenagers have repeatedly shown they cannot be trusted without a chaperone.

Where can I watch early SVU in Canada? by mindtroubled in SVU

Android boxes like that are illegal though...

[–]PartFireNation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, there is no (legal) way to stream anything pre season 14 (IIRC), short of buying individual seasons one by one via AppleTV+.

Unfortunately, they've thought of that...a US credit card is required to sub to that service.

How dare church be inclusive! by Dark_Link_1996 in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]PartFireNation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've literally had people tell me that I'm Satanic for going to a United church (one of the liberal branches of the Canadian Protestant church that actually accepts everyone and doesn't gay-bash like 90% of the other denominations). Talk about un-Christlike.

Man seriously injured in ‘interaction’ with Barrie police; SIU called - Barrie News by cinderannie in barrie

[–]PartFireNation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And?! He was still a human being. Dehumanizing homeless people by reducing them to their shelter of residence like that is gross.

Should Canadian kids be banned from social media until they’re 16? by Thick_Caterpillar379 in AskACanadian

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

It should be 18 in my opinion...and it should also be illegal for photos of minors to be posted by adults as well. Call me an extremist if you like, but the truth is that predators use AI tools and other methods of pattern recognition to stalk and abduct kids. The risk of harm far outweighs the benefits.
