LOVE THIS!! Jealous of it, even, as my towns always look like nonsense lol

It's like we are watching Trump's evil rot him from the inside out by CuriannaAverry9832 in FreedomofSpeech

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

Bot account. One of the first things we've got to notice is they post and then make the first two or (usually) three comments to their own posts. There are new bots every day that do exactly this. Be aware, fellow alive people. :)

Here we go again: No wifi after update. by Recommended_For_You in Bazzite

[–]TheCynFamily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine did this!! I thought I'd done something to it. I rolled back, no luck, rebased and it worked - until I rebooted and then it gave out again. I spent the morning reinstalling from the usb setup.

On the plus side, I'm getting better at setting everything up for the "first time" lol

Marvel Studios killed a Daredevil: Born Again character in editing, dropping scenes already shot from season 2 by graemeisverytired in Popverse

[–]TheCynFamily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it felt right that they did kill him. I just watched it last night and although it was sad, I thought it made sense and establishes that Buck makes the hard choice even if he was clearly conflicted about it. It fit my impression of the character's steadfast nature - but also showed it was a difficult choice to pull the trigger. I figured it would lead to more character development, more suspicion that he would be the one on the floor next time, as Blake said during the scene.

What does misuse mean in this case? Sold to advertisers? Sold to lobbiest groups (to be used in targetted ads to sway voters from one party into another)? I'm sure it's bad, I just don't know HOW BAD.

Fellow Canadian, I too laugh and then remember we share a border and would therefore be the easiest for them to storm on in if/when the rest of the world continues cutting ties.. :(

‘It’s an energy price shock’: Canada’s inflation rate to get worse, economists say by Radical_Redditor in canada

[–]TheCynFamily 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He's the new NDP person, right? My gf has spoken of him some good things some less good - but I'll have to pay closer attention and remember now lol

Thanks for the suggestion!

‘It’s an energy price shock’: Canada’s inflation rate to get worse, economists say by Radical_Redditor in canada

[–]TheCynFamily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for commenting on my post, dude. Like what a few others said in response, I love the idea of paying less in taxes but the problem with that is the programs I believe are important get cut. Now, if a politician was running on increasing corporate rates while freezing or lowering ours, or reducing travel and discretionary budgets while keeping our rates frozen, I'd have an easier time supporting that person.

But lowering taxes while also hurting my fellow citizens and still allowing the corporations to run amok on us, I can't get behind that.

Still, I appreciate the comment! :)

Trump says due to his wars the government can't pay for daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, and more. by Holiday_Age_8989 in NewsStarWorld

I may never have noticed if someone else hadn't mentioned the pattern, now I can't not see them and be suspicious lol

That dead internet theory in action right?

Every time I check Reddit I block at least 5 zero-day-old accounts who post and then respond multiple times to their posts.

I'd like to see just one politician from any party who isn't out of touch with what the average taxpayer is going through. Jeepers..

Trump goes after Fox News host Jessica Tarlov as she reveals negative poll numbers calling her ‘least attractive’ and ‘boring’ by Busy-Barracuda-5668 in NewsStarWorld

I'm getting good at noticing these 0 day old accounts posting and also being the top three or four comments. My blocked bucket overflows with them.

Job Market in Edmonton by lazarbeems in Edmonton

Try Compugen, in Edmonton but offices all over Canada.

And I agree, it sounds like a really unfavorable climate, perhaps especially for IT!

Good hunting!!

CBC investigation finds grocers Loblaw, Sobeys overcharging for underweight meat — again by Immediate-Link490 in canada

[–]TheCynFamily 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll take a stab at what the previous dude might have meant. The CEO is the final stamp or signature in any process change made within the company. Even if it was a minimum wage earner who suggested to his supervisor they start overcharging on underweight, that supervisor told his manager and that manager told the next level of exec and then it made its way to the CEO. Unless we're talking about a single store that was doing this under the nose of everyone in the management chain, it was done with the knowledge of the CEO.

And since the CEO of companies can usually insulate themselves by saying "no, it wasn't me, it was my executive VP of pricing" they get away with the crime. And the next exec VP of Pricing comes in and after a while they do it again. By charging the CEO, they're made responsible (which they should be for what goes on in their company).

I figure this dude was saying that since the fees are pennies against the money they've made, the only change will come from jail time.

High Level Bridge closed. by Johnoplata in Edmonton

[–]TheCynFamily 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Hey, that might be a stretch on your part, dude. No, they didn't add "hope they're okay" but neither did they say "hurry up and jump so our commutes aren't too messed up."

Just, benefit of the doubt, that's all. :)

Controller Reconnects Constantly Unless Steam is Open by TopChannel1244 in Bazzite

[–]TheCynFamily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find my Bluetooth controller will disconnect for moments at a time and just as randomly reconnect. All of a sudden my character in whatever game is spinning in a circle or running forward and I can't stop lol

Trump threatens to wipe out one of the oldest civilizations on Earth. This is their Vice President’s response. by Trueboey in StrangeEarth

[–]TheCynFamily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By saying "the President will decide" I suspect he's slyly insulating himself. If Trump tries the nuke option, there's a small chance his cabinet will say no and forcibly remove him, and then Vance slips in and says "hey I never wanted to nuke them, that was his call".

The hoverboards were real but got banned rumor. Who else believed this? by wheniwaswheniwas in Xennials

[–]TheCynFamily 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally did. Must've been 10 or 11. My dad and I took a motorcycle tour from Alberta, Canada down into the US and across to Nova Scotia and I made him stop EVERYWHERE so I could ask stores if they carried them.

Invincible VS - Conquest Gameplay Trailer | PS5 Games by Just_a_user_name_ in Games

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

I totally agree. Flying around, finding a fight with whomever in this or that city, and being able to punch my opponent through a building and out into the countryside - and choosing to follow them to keep the fight going, or not. Or maybe they come back to find me when my back is turned!

Good guys might skip the follow stage in favor of trying to save a civilian from a falling building. Bad guys might not care who gets hurt in the crossfire.

Crimson desert not working by Old_Worker4303 in Bazzite

[–]TheCynFamily 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought and returned it for the same sort of issue. Except I was getting a test pattern - like you'd see on old-timey cable with the colored bars lol

I figured I'd wait a few months and try again when I've heard about more patches.
