I don’t want my house to burn down, I don’t think I’ll be following suit.

If SK can stop fiddling with clocks twice a year, other provinces can do it too.

The three “normal” suggestions are:

• Bazzite - https://bazzite.gg/

C*ash Slap is on the poster, which is probably supposed to be a reference to Crash Bash.

If you don’t remember Crash Bash, that makes sense, it wasn’t great.

If it’s a word that already ends in an s in its singular form, like Travis, I would pronounce it like “Travis is”.
It’s a word that only got an s at the end because it’s pluralized, like “Smiths”, I would generally just pronounce it like “Smiths”.

The US election is an election of elections.

They break the election into smaller elections, based on where people live. It doesn’t matter if someone gets 99% of the votes in that area, or 50.0000001% of the votes. Winning is winning.

So if someone wins 49% of the smaller elections, but wins them with a high enough amount, they can have more total votes and still lose the whole thing.

Edit: Let’s say there are only 3 areas of 10 people each.

Area 1: Goes to Person A
Person A: 9
Person B: 1

Area 2: Goes to Person B
Person A: 4
Person B: 6

Area 3: Goes to Person B
Person A: 4
Person B: 6

So person B wins 2 of the 3 mini elections, which makes them win the whole thing.
Person B had 13 votes, Person A had 17 votes.
Person A would win if it was “popular vote”

Communities on Lemmy follow the rules of the community, and the instance that hosts that community. So, this would need to follow the rules of [email protected] and dbzer0, the instance that left memes is hosted on.

Both of these can be found in the sidebar on the main page of the community, aka [email protected].

There are also some instances that will ban you for your comments/posts in other communities, but that’s not common for most places that you would want to post anyway, or unless you post something very awful.

Thanks. I hadn’t read the article yet, and I was concerned that the (real) CBC went hard-right.

Banana also isn’t a valid answer, but if you have the chance, you always go Banana.

That’s 8 keystrokes, nice!

People answering a question like “Would you like to do X, or Y?” with “yes.”

I didn’t fucking ask “Would you like to do X or Y?”, so put down whatever solvent you are chugging, then give me your choice.

The law, in basically everything.

I love that the league for 1 of 2 of the sports that Canada plays at a high level are speaking against this. The people actually involved with the sports say that it’s no an issue, so other than just because you need a minority to bully in order to maintain power with your voter-base, why should we reckon it is?

What about banning tall kids from Basketball or short kids from gymnastics?
Neither are fair for everyone when someone under 1.5m can compete with someone over 2m.

Akathisia seems like a nightmare to live with, and she also has RC Bipolar 2.

Complete physical and metal unrest, I can completely understand her wanting relief.

It does sound like the process for MAiD wasn’t followed, and you need to use the correct path.

Some places give you a whole week to vote, and the polls are open 12 hours a day. So if you something happens and your plans are ruined, you have ample time to still make it to the polls.

“Rogues and Scoundrels” really doesn’t feel like it’s a good fit for Trek IP.

Maybe I’ll be proven wrong.

They edited the formatting of their comment, so they do look the same now.

I just use the normal Lemmy web experience on desktop Firefox.

If the width of the window is made quite narrow, like on a phone, they will look the same. At full size, or in landscape, they won’t.

The formatting is a little off. At the end of a line, before you hit enter, leave 2 spaces.
