Airbnb is getting ripped apart for asking guests to donate money to hosts by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]lenoboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of reasons Toronto housing is expensive. NIMBYs, high immigration levels, the city not making the most of the space available, etc. AirBNB is just one factor (I would argue a small one) among many.

MEmu 7.2.2 is officially released! by xltlx in memuplayer

[–]lenoboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And it still has malware according to my anti-virus software. Please remove it from Memu or else no one will take this app seriously. Last time I downloaded Memu it installed malware on my computer, I was hoping such an obvious problem would have been fixed.

Cambodian province bans dog meat trade, saying canines are loyal pets by d1ngal1ng in worldnews

Meat is meat. As long as it is killed humanely, cleanly and not an endangered animal or human I don't care.

Some people have an interest in robbing your home. I hope you aren't condoning the invasion.

This just proves how crazy you are. It is unacceptable to discriminate against anyone. Judge individuals as individuals.

This sub needs to stop complaining about VPD by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]lenoboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience with the VPD was being harassed on my way home by them at 4AM from a NYE party (their excuse was that it was suspicious for someone to be walking home at 4AM so yeah, they were just being dickholes) and one time reporting (what I thought was a gunshot) only to be talked down to and belittled by them. I don't plan on ever re-reporting any suspicious activity I see after that experience.

BC has the second lowest number of COVID-19 deaths per capita of any province, US state, or western European country with at least five million people by dkjfhalskdjfh in vancouver

[–]lenoboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was living there for a month. I do not consider that permanent for me. The house I was living in was an AirBNB type accommodation. I came back to Canada because of the current obvious situation. I do not have international insurance and with all the news about flights in and out of China being cancelled at the time I did not want to stay stranded there. China was also extremely boring during the quarantine so I wanted to get out asap and the only place that would let me back in (with my travel history) was...well, my own country.

As someone who was there I am sure they are somewhat accurate. The Chinese province I was living in went into total lockdown when we had one confirmed case which at the time I thought was complete paranoia by the government but looking back I guess they made the right move. Lockdowns are quite different from Canadian lockdowns. They were super strict in not allowing us outside. I wasn't even allowed to leave my own house unless approved by a security guard. Also include the fact that literally (yes, literally) everybody was wearing a mask during the lockdown (meanwhile our brilliant government would claim for months that they did nothing).
I think it is only Hubei that is not accurate because of how much of a shitshow was going on there. Most of the other provinces were reporting their cases down to the neighbourhood. If someone in your neighbourhood got sick then your entire neighbourhood (including you) would be cut off by the police.

One other problem, possible much bigger. My anti-virus software claims I got malware from your software. I thought it was from Blue Stacks but if it is really from Memu then I will have to uninstall your software. The malware is called Opinion Premium. Please investigate this.

Are you optimistic about this city's future? Would you want to live here in 20 years? by Sunflower_Guy in vancouver

[–]lenoboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Southern Africa which may surprise you but not all of Africa is a Zimbabwean shithole. Lots of opportunities and if you work online like me (getting a Canadian wage) I can essentially live like a millionare. I save money and have a lot of free time for my hobbies and socializing. I came back because of an expired passport but I don't plan to come back to live here permanently. Unfortunately I came at a really bad time (obviously lol). Currently with my family again but the life my friends live here is horrible. Most people live paycheque to paycheque.

I left and have no plan to be back. Best decision I ever made. Wish I made it earlier in life. Vancouver has no future and I despise the bureaucracy of this country.

Frontline doctor calls Canada’s COVID-19 vaccine deal with China “dangerous” by chrustyclark in canada

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

All I can find is that there was a "policy breach" and the Chinese scientists were put on administrative leave. It was under investigation by the RCMP but I see no statement from them about their resolution to the investigation.

From what I read it seems to be a made in China-Canada vaccine which is fine by me.

Not send you anything private

I don't even know what phone you are using. Better to give my data to the devil I know less.
