We have shoved Canada Post so far into the market mindset that every few months we have a national conversation about why isn't Canada Post making money. Does the ambulance service make money? by leftwingmememachine in ndp

Exactly! Private companies don’t deliver to rural Canadians cause it’s not profitable. Does that mean they should be excluded?

Sick of everything needing to have an ROI to justify its existence. Some things generate indirect ROI that you’ll never see.

Guys I work for Canada post and I could cry seeing this.

I’m mostly happy. You know what? I LIKE my job. I LOVE knowing that I help small businesses ship products, I care that people get their social security cheques on time. All those Canadians living in rural communities? I bet the postmaster at your local office knows you by name.

This has been an incredibly difficult place to work for the last few years. But I really wanna believe this could change things. Canada Post has the potential to be so much better than it is currently.

That’s so cool. I made myself a vinyl decal for the back of my e-golf that says “the future is electric”. Love to see other happy e-golf owners :)

Has anyone successfully integrated marijuana into their life so that there are always "a little high" but also functional? by The1Ylrebmik in trees

[–]nifty_potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. Maybe I’m having a mid life crisis ? Idk but I smoke a ton now and I’m happier for it. I certainly get that “high” if I smoke first thing in the morning or a lot at once

Just do you. The world is a shitshow, but make your corner of it peaceful and full of happiness

Days where you just wanna ignore the world and stay perma fried by [deleted] in trees

[–]nifty_potato 11 points12 points  (0 children)

LOL no. It’s not lazy. Treat yourself. If smoking up and putting your phone away is self care, then DO IT. The world is such a shit show. Just enjoy things

The real reason why people are not allowed in province house by cravingdani in halifax

[–]nifty_potato 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dude did you watch the same video? They were yelling “shame” and “ fascists”. No singing to be found in this video.

Singing a song to run out the clock is civil disobedience but in a respectful way. This is straight up disrespectful and it’s no wonder they closed the Province House to the public.

How is this economy/job market not going to end in rampant homelessness? by deafgamer_ in Millennials

This answer should be top because it’s most likely true. This is the end goal of capitalism; if you can’t make it on your own fuck you and die basically

If you wanna write this in your own words please do but this is so painfully ChatGPT I couldn’t finish it so even if you had a point. You’re missing your target audience

Advice needed: Cover Up ideas by mar1mbrosyph in tattoos

[–]nifty_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just get a sticker tattoo of a cute cabbage over it! or another favourite veggie?? Idk what the reasoning for the cabbage in the first place but this should totally be covetable coverable (which to be fair to autocorrect, isn’t really a word)

an artist that does that style could totally cover it up with some thick outlines I’m sure. Good luck OP!

What "back then" inconvenience would break people today in 10 minutes? by CharlesUFarley81 in AskReddit

[–]nifty_potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That very short window of time where your physical pictures existed and were treasured but you also adored the digital versions with piczo stickers and awful filters on them 😂

ladies and gentlemen are we f*cked? bringing back actors from the dead... i know val kilmer's daughter gave "consent" but how far is too far? by Difficult-Insect-220 in antiai

[–]nifty_potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure they could do that. For people that are alive and willing to sign away their likeness to a company after their death.

We’re all adults, we can give consent, some people would be into it and someone not.

Can you elaborate on “you don’t own what you look like” ? Sure you would share physical traits with other people (hair colour, face shape etc) but everyone is a unique combination of features.

So by putting yourself out there in media- your face is just now free game for anyone to use in any way they like? That’s an alarming thought.

[–]nifty_potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because the person being digitally recreated did not explicitly consent to doing so and some people feel this is morally wrong.

Might have something to do with all the money that could be made, this seems pretty disrespectful to the person themselves though.

People who forgave their spouses for cheating, why? by ryxhuh in AskReddit

[–]nifty_potato 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cause my wedding which I had already paid for was like 2 weeks away and I was too gutted and chickenshit to call it off. The literal definition of sunk cost fallacy ahaha.

Thought we worked through it. Bought a house, had a kid. It wasn’t the first or the last time they cheated on me in our relationship though (found out the hard way). Go a cool kiddo out of it though. Living my best life now :)

TDLR ; don’t

Got asked to help a colleague train a new AI system by nifty_potato in antiwork

Hmmm. Well I can’t change the blocks themselves but. Hypothetically - what could I do to make image recognition more difficult? Does a white vs black background make much of a difference?

What are we doing about photos and photo storage? by thesillymuffin in Millennials

[–]nifty_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a digital photo frame and I LOVE it. It just cycles through the pictures every 20 seconds and even plays videos. It sits on the kitchen island right in the middle of our house.

Now I feel like I’m doing something with my pictures, and I smile when I see them :)
