I thought this sub was for people having thoughts about showers, not thoughts in the shower. This all makes sense now

There are enough legitimate reasons to criticize AI bros without making shit up. These kinds of bs posts just distract from the problems AI is causing. Real question, why did you post this? Are you gullible, lazy, or malicious?

Do criminals or terrorist measure themselves by how much bounty is put on their heads? Did Bin Laden think he was king shit because he was the top guy on all wanted lists? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Canada wants to join the age verification bandwagon and censor the internet with Bill C-34 in c/technology@lemmy.world

well what if people became aware/educated and the tables turned?

I'm basing my argument on how the world is, not how the world should be

As for your claim that we should all just be happy with government mandated surveillance

I never made that claim. What the hell are you talking about?! Your whole comment is just the rambles of a mad man

my argument is that requiring ID for the Internet is really really really fucking stupid

How is that argument at all related to this conversation or the bill? What are you talking about? If this bill passes you will not require ID to user the Internet in Canada. Have you read the bill?

Strait To War - a Strait of Hormuz blockade tanker transit game (straittowar.com)
 

I made, "Strait to War", where you have to get a tanker through the Strait of Hormuz. You can't pick your side, you just spawn in as either a tanker, an Iranian drone, or a US frigate. You have an objective but there is no real winning the game. It's an anti-war game disguised as a war game.

Sound doesn't work yet. Let me know what you think. I will add Iranian speed boats next. And I have no idea how it will scale with lots of users.

Is it impolite to crosspost someone else's post to another community on Lemmy without saying anything? (lemmy.ca)
 

cross-posted from: https://piefed.europe.pub/c/asklemmy/p/266879/is-it-impolite-to-crosspost-someone-else-s-post-to-another-community-on-lemmy-witho

I feel like on mainstream social media this is done pretty thoughtlessly and it's a norm but on Lemmy, with the much smaller userbase, I kinda felt like... it's like riding on someone else's coat tails? Or is it just me? > > Edit: of course if it's artwork or text, obviously then I'd make it explicitly clear it's not mine but I mean news articles, memes, things like that.

Do these look like fake cigarettes or used tampons? (lemmy.ca)
 

I'm going to a cabaret show tonight and I wanted to get in costume. I tried to make some fake cigarettes but now I'm worried I'll these will make me look like a perverted vampire. What's the consensus team?

The Canada US border along the Detroit river should move 250km north to reduce tariffs for the automotive industry (lemmy.ca)
 

This may be an unpopular opinion but we should consider moving the Canada / US border 250km north along the Detroit river. Moving the border north 250km would reduce the amount of cross border trips for the automotive industry negating a lot of the tariff issues. And I don't think the geniuses ruling the US would realize that moving the border north along this stretch would result in Canada gaining over 9000km² of land.

The reason this may be unpopular is because Canada would inherit the Detroit Red Wings.

I'm not affiliated with Michaud Toys, I'm just a very happy customer. The craftsmanship is amazing. Prices and delivery costs were very reasonable too ($45 for the board + $15 for delivery to Belleville Ontario). Their website has loads of games michaudtoys.org
