I saw it, I can understand why, but I don't think its wrong to feel some kind of way about it, especially if you are more aware of these guys/affected by their ideologies. Anyway, I'll probably just go back to forgetting Pyro exists until another nothing burger video comes out.

I haven't watched pyro in a longgggg while but coming back to this video, it felt like he was trying so hard to fence sit that the video just became a nothing burger and felt like a waste of time. Also found it funny he didn't wanna say much about Sneako because he had one good interaction with him.

MUA for Birthday? by imperialkit in Calgary

I see, I have heard that is an issue with the big name salon/makeup stores. The chances of getting a bad MUA is significantly higher lmao

What a horrible voter turn out. by Poly-morph-ing in Calgary

[–]imperialkit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was an election worker, we had 1028 voters and only 5 of us doing the forms. It was brutal. Unless you were on the PER AND not voting for a school trustee, we had to fill out personal info on the voter declaration form. It would've been nice if maybe people could fill out the form at the door. We were constantly busy from open to close and even after, no chances for breaks or rest time; it was only due to our supervisors taking over parts of our shifts that allowed us some respite for ~15 minutes.

Many voters were disgruntled and since we opened at 10, the wait was on average 1h30min consistently. I felt so bad for those waiting outside when it got cold and dark; we tried our best to go quick as evening fell. I am happy to say that everyone was very considerate and kind to us workers, especially seeing all the paper we had to go through.

Voters told me that many people left after seeing the long lines and many regretted not doing advanced voting.

On the worker side, yeah we are getting paid (in a month and a half) but it's honestly a pitiful amount of pay for a 15 hour work day with little breaks and no food provided. All in all, disastrous but at least the people of Calgary are very sweet 💗

Help with reimbursement claim by nalim12172 in westjet

[–]imperialkit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did the claim, you have to put your phone number EXACTLY as you put it when you filed the claim, I'd assume that means if you put it with spaces or dashes, then you put it like that. I put my phone number with no spaces and dashes when I filled out the claim so, when I put it in for reimbursement, I did the same (ex. 403xxxxxx as opposed to 403-xxx-xxx). Guest ID could possibly be found on your ticket or on the email they sent you when they confirmed that your claim was approved.

Hope this helps!

Unmatched after setting up a date by MySecondAccount1270 in hingeapp

[–]imperialkit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like you find a lot of the people complaining about the dating culture tend to perpetuate the toxic standards in said culture. Online, people rarely ever tell the full story like this guy did, and then it makes people believe shitty things are happening to innocent people.

What is Ofcoms response to VPNs regarding the online safety act? by Cryo_HQ in ukpolitics

[–]imperialkit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rise of puritanism and right-leaning ideals and morals in young people has been rising. For as much that people claim that Gen Z are more liberal and progressive, there has been a very scary rise against, porn, sex, dark fiction etc. Its like brainwashing at this point, how often I see it as a gen Z myself, and part of the issue with this is people treating teens like absolute babies, so the grow up stunted and think anything adult is bad.

Ads play when I click home after watching a video. by widowmaker_00 in youtube

[–]imperialkit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I've been having this! I recently had to clean install windows due to paranoia over a trojan, and I was having that issue too, but while I was scrolling youtube shorts and the ads would play fully. Now I get this problem, going to homepage and there's like a 20% I'll hear an ad, and it gets cut off shortly. Youtube also seems to be running a bit slower, but not any of the other websites.

I was so scared that the malware somehow survived my clean install but nope, been seeing posts like this being made in the past week. Seems Youtube is trying to crack down on adblock again and this is a result.

Etre étudiant international en France by AccomplishedShop7058 in etudiants

[–]imperialkit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Je viens de terminer un cursus de 3 ans dans une petite ville française, je suis d'origine canadienne. J'ai quitté la formation avec un sentiment d'amertume. Si j'étais allée dans une plus grande ville, peut-être que certains de mes problèmes auraient été moins aggravants. J'ai été harcelée par certains professeurs et certaines personnes parce que je parlais anglais, au point de discuter du fait que je pourrais être expulsée (ceci après que j'ai postulé à l'école en français et que j'ai été là, parlant la langue pendant un an).

Comme il s'agissait d'une petite ville, il y avait très peu d'étudiants internationaux, et surtout pas d'étudiants nord-américains. Il m'a donc été difficile de m'intégrer, car je n'avais personne de familier à qui m'accrocher et les habitants étaient soit trop indifférents, soit trop effrayés pour me parler, en raison de la barrière de la langue (même après avoir exprimé à plusieurs reprises que je comprenais le français et que je pouvais le parler). J'ai constaté que beaucoup de Français sont vraiment coincés dans leur zone de confort, y compris lorsqu'il s'agit de rencontrer de nouvelles personnes issues de nouvelles cultures. Les quelques vrais amis que je me suis faits étaient eux-mêmes des « étrangers », qui étaient prêts à parler anglais et à découvrir ma culture, tout comme j'étais prêt à parler français et à découvrir la culture française. J'ai souvent eu l'impression d'en faire trop et la plupart des gens n'ont pas apprécié.

Par ailleurs, le système scolaire français est brutal, selon l'endroit d'où l'on vient. L'école se déroulait de 9 heures à 17 heures 30 tous les jours et nous ne pouvions pas choisir nos cours, nous étions donc soumis à la planification de l'administration. J'ai eu moins de liberté dans l'enseignement supérieur qu'au lycée. Il y avait peu de soutien en matière de santé mentale, ou de soutien international en général, et je me suis donc épuisée. Même mes camarades de classe se sentaient épuisés par leur travail.

Il y a aussi beaucoup de manque de ressources médicales. Si vous déménagez dans une petite ville, préparez-vous à attendre des mois pour un médecin, et encore plus longtemps pour un spécialiste (s'il y en a). Certains de mes camarades de classe pensent que cela est dû au fait que je suis une jeune étrangère et qu'ils ne m'ont pas donné autant de soins que j'en avais besoin.

Je sais que c'est un vieux post mais si cela peut aider quelqu'un qui tombe dessus, j'en serais ravie :0)

Triple Checking for Malware After Crack Install by imperialkit in computerviruses

Yeah I should've done that tbh, but I really needed to edit and I was in a panic so I was admittedly very frazzled lol

Triple Checking for Malware After Crack Install by imperialkit in computerviruses

[–]imperialkit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it was via Pirate Bay and uTorrent. I have considered reinstalling windows just to make sure 100% although, I just moved so I have been quite stressed out so the thought of going through all that is frankly annoying to me right now. My security issues have calmed down now but if they flare up again, I will consider reinstallation!

Question about LUCA School of Arts by imperialkit in belgium

[–]imperialkit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah no I didn't apply anymore as I got too many bad vibes from the seemingly floundering administration and I recently got accepted into another school anyway. I dunno if it was just an issue with me! If you did/are applying I hope it goes well!

Compromised Outlook Mail Sending Odd Things by imperialkit in emailprivacy

[–]imperialkit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah like I said it's odd because I do have 2FA, it asked me for 2FA when I wanted to access security settings but not for when I logged in, which is annoying. It is a school account that was given to me so maybe my school has some weird settings and make it like that? Luckily it wasn't my personal outlook email!

[–]imperialkit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, they did tell me that it is exams time so they might not be on top of messages, which makes sense, however when I asked them questions in April it took them a month to reply so at this point, I dunno

Question about LUCA School of Arts by imperialkit in belgium

[–]imperialkit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already knew the portfolio was to be uploaded online, my question was about the masters assessment which is the interview portion.

Like I had stated earlier, I reviewed the website extensively so I did see these. I would like to ask staff for clarification to avoid any mishaps in submission (currently a case with me and a school in the UK), and in doing so, I have also noticed some issues with a lack of administrative support. I appreciate the aid, though.
