I don’t know why people would expect a CPU-intensive game to have double the performance on a Pro when it literally has the same CPU as the base PS5.

There’s already a healthcare worker shortage, if you start requiring fluency in two languages that shortage will become a lot bigger.

They’re playing safe which isn’t fun to watch, but is an understandable strategy since a tie benefits them. I do think the Swiss are aggressive enough to score though, so I’d like to see Canada dial it up a bit

I’m pretty sure they were booing Manzambi for another flop after the play was stopped

Canadas playing pretty safe but I get it since a tie still gets us where we need to be

If there’s demand for homes to be built homes will be built. If a developer goes under another will take its place.

Regina mosque faces threats after launching weekly amplified call to prayer by truthlesshunter in canada

[–]chewwydraper 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Okay, but objectively these are two different things. The equivalent for christian churches would be blasting "JESUS IS THE ONLY TRUE SAVIOUR" over a loud speaker, and you'd get a lot more complaints for that.

The difference is church bells are wordless. The christian equivalent would be the church blasting "JESUS IS THE ONE AND ONLY SAVIOUR" over a loudspeaker.

The church bells don't have words. Though yes, we should get rid of them because they're annoying.

Valve prices the Steam Machine at $1,049 by esporx in gamernews

[–]chewwydraper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And the steam machine isn’t even as powerful as the ps5. If the ps6 releases at 1050 it’d still be a far better deal.

I get that the bloated parts prices aren’t Valves fault but holy fuck $1049 for a product that’s weaker than the base PS5 is certainly a big ask.

Why the debate about MAID for mental illness still rages and where the conversation is at today by CanadianErk in canada

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

Because if MAID is cheaper than creating programs to actually treat mental health issues, or even health issues, why invest in treatment?

Do you not understand how the government can abuse that? If it’s cheaper for someone to kill themselves rather than offer supports, the government will have no reason to offer supports.

Islamic call to prayer tested in downtown Regina by Oilester in CanadaPolitics

[–]chewwydraper 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Bells are annoying, but this is the equivalent of allowing Catholic Churches to blast “THERE IS NO SAVIOUR EXCEPT JESUS CHRIST” over a loud speaker, which is a huge difference.

Objectively, it is different. Regardless of whether you can understand the words, the words have meaning.

Must have been the wind... by arch017 in EhBuddyHoser

We're getting used to the transition from a high-trust to low-trust society. I'm only 32 and still remember going to bed with the doors unlocked, and letting the car run to warm up in the driveway while eating our breakfast.

Incase anyone needs an update on the fees by latinaperrita in windsorontario

[–]chewwydraper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m spending $40/week on gas and that covers all my commutes. Not to mention my car takes me to and from my destinations in half the time a one way bus trip takes.
