Yeah it’s getting pretty old now.

I just busted a gut at the sheer stupidity of that response. I think he can’t surprise me and then this comes out.

Nanaimo BC, Canada… price is in CAD. That converts to $3.32 USD

I must say I am shocked that our prices are on par with or lower than anywhere in the US. I mean the conversion rate on the California price is insane in CAD:

TIL… what the fuck. This shit has been illegal Canada wide for generations now, I honestly thought this article was from the past…

Wait…is the modern day US from the past? Was there some sort of time loop?

Two very important steps to start with:

1. Corporations are not people. They should not be able to lobby, donate funds, or be a scapegoat for their executives in a lawsuit.

2. Restore truth in print laws, which were removed thanks to corporations being considered as people and allowed advertisers to lobby this legislation be removed under the guise of it hurting their buisness.

Then you’ve got a chance of stopping this shit. But these two legislative changes can be attributed to as the first to steps on the horrible path our democracies have taken to their ultimate enshitification where they have taken the power from the people and put it in the hands of the wealthy.

Gold. Pure Gold.

Hahaha, fair point.

I dont usually upvote posts about Reddit…

…but when i do they’re shooting themselves in the foot

Call me a pessimist, but I’d be willing to bet the Republicans would put up legislation to argue that anyone that dies after the election within X number of days has their vote disqualified.

This! God damn I’m so sick of asking for a large and they give me a Venti (aka extra large) telling me “oh thats what you asked for”

You do realize your shitty size names actually have some meaning in other languages right? Grande = Large. Also 16oz = large.

That said, I think I go to them like 2 times a year now when everything else is closed and I have to choose between them and Tim Horton’s.

Also, fuck corps and their decision to upsize a large to 20oz in other companies. Can’t remember exactly when that started (15 years ago or so?) however I think the first ones to do it were McDonalds and Tim Horton’s here in Canada.

Just makes me recall Super Size Me.

For your skilled and educated workers, its very easy. Not to mention your neighbouring countries have experienced brain drain for an entire generation because of higher American salaries.

Prepare to experience brain drain as your best doctors, scientists and engineers easily move to other countries leaving you grasping to have enough people in critical areas.

This is one of the reasons the US excelled as a super power. Getting a constant import of the best and the brightest from around the world makes all your companies more successful and your army stronger and better equipped.

And in the end, Project2025 will likely still come for Elon and his porn hive.

I hear what you’re saying here, but the parallel doesn’t work. People were dying of stage 4 lung cancer for years before they finally put warning labels on the product.

Unfortunately, people like this are going to have to keep saying it over and over until the message takes hold. It will take years.

Haha. If only it was just that. My IBS is triggered by them. If I am diligent in avoiding them, I have a normal life.

Worth noting that there is a direct correlation between gluten percentage and fodmap percentage in foods, and many people who believe they are gluten sensitive are likely FODMAP sensitive and missed the target on their self-diagnosis. And likely, they aren’t having 100% normal digestion because they are missing the bigger picture of what FODMAPs are and just how many food sources contain high amounts of them.

I miss garlic, onions and mushrooms a lot too.

I love watermelon, but its really high in FODMAPs. :(

I will have to take a look at Reaper!

In Windows 11 Microsoft made it quite clear, you are the testers. Updates are forced on home users, not corps. Corps get the updates after home users get them all force pushed and field test them.

I have not dove into yabridge yet. What DAW did you go with?

After poking around I decided to go with Bitwig and skip trying to go with getting Ableton working with Proton or Wine. I’ve actually been enjoying some of their default VSTs as I practice my piano again, but I do miss my paid VSTs a lot.

Have been really looking around at the vsts that have native Linux support though. Was really glad to see of u-he’s VSTs worked natively.
