Most people complain that many accounts / not knowing where they should create them is the main obstacle to adoption. Creating even more seems worse
AlternateRouteOPto Buy Canadian•MEC announces new Canadian ownership -Press ReleaseEnglish3·1 month agoI was member as well so I AM your ilk, the coop had MILLIONS of members. IIRC from the last few disclosures less than 1% ever voted on anything.
I bet if you banded together even 10k worth of people to vote a certain way you could have swayed ANY of the open annual elections.
However what happened most of the time is about 5 whiny assholes showed up to AGM meetings and bitched and complained when they should have been rounding up support OUTSIDE the meetings to get people in to vote.
AlternateRouteOPto Buy Canadian•MEC announces new Canadian ownership -Press ReleaseEnglish1·1 month agoThe Board / Leadership voted in by the Coop members apathetic voting turn outs bankrupted the coop, then under creditor protection the assets where sold off.
This all happened in 2020, 5 years ago. The fact you didn’t notice till now sort of proves the lack of coop member engagement for really important votes before the end.
I’ve since revoked that access.
A few releases ago they made it so you can DEFAULT new entities NOT to be controlled by the VA… I cleared ALL entities and changed the setting. I only add things one at a time to voice control now.
SO many integrations ad switches it is a high risk to default the VA to have access to all new ones.
AlternateRouteOPto Buy Canadian•MEC announces new Canadian ownership -Press ReleaseEnglish132·1 month agoPoor engagement from the coop members lead to voting in an ineffective board and management that lead to the coop going bankrupt.
The “coop” did themselves in.
I am in the camp that there is a benefit to the managed store. Since moving family members to iOS devices the number of times they have loaded malware or asked me for help installing ANYTHING dropped to zero.
Should techies be able to side load if they want? Sure, should that be a primary install method? No.
Epic isn’t wrong about Apples payment requirements being BS, but Epic also isn’t exactly a hero here.
Will be interesting to see how this pissing match plays out over time.
Should you be able to use other payment providers outside of apple pay YES!
Should you be able to install other APP stores on an iPhone? Not sure.
AlternateRouteto Technology@lemmy.world•Noncoders are using AI to prompt their ideas into reality. They call it 'vibe coding.'English211·2 months agoI like the story’s coming out where the AI puts the API keys for expensive pay per use services in plane text or creates ultra inefficient code that makes unnecessary calls.
AlternateRouteto Buy Canadian•EB Games to return after GameStop Canada acquisitionEnglish1·2 months agoIf the game isn’t on the cart and it acts as a game code it is a fake cart.
The point of the physical release is to ensure you can play it without worrying about a server shut down in a few years.

AlternateRouteto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•Why is my Dreamcast displaying tiny with a new HDMI cable?English3·2 months agoAnd I meant choppy like lines and such. Should’ve said “crispness”. The game plays flawlessly on the tv with no output issues.
You probably need to take a picture, you might be describing that the output is 480i interlaced where every other line is drawn and some modern TVs will render that badly. In which case it is a deinterlacing issue.
Take a look at this link some games support 240p output mode…
AlternateRouteto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•Why is my Dreamcast displaying tiny with a new HDMI cable?English6·2 months agoIf your TV has a crappy upscale then you can look into external hardware, however seems odd this is making it choppy, does your TV have a low latency GAME mode?
AlternateRouteto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•Why is my Dreamcast displaying tiny with a new HDMI cable?English24·2 months agoI’ll have to check the display mode on the tv and see if any other options exist. I did play it in Fill mode which kept the 4:3 resolution but I feel like that sorta defeats the purpose of using hdmi.
Well no? You are getting a digital signal which will be MUCH clearer than analog RCA… Upscaling / fill mode is the Only way to make it bigger.
AlternateRouteto Canada•Trump says he’ll meet with PM Carney at the White House ‘within the next week’English24·2 months agoThen we would need to allow a convicted felon in the country. Trump is very clear he wants to “keep criminals out” of the US, we should do the same in Canada.
AlternateRouteto Canada•Where the parties stand on gun control in the Canadian federal electionEnglish92·2 months agoWe block new cars that have the wrong color indicator lights or the wrong color of seatbelt button. We block cars from other countries that don’t have a preset to have the headlights on.
The jacked up F150 still has laws about its road worthiness, still can be taken off the road, especially if the operator does something stupid with it.
Ya the more you talk about it the BETTER it sounds that we get more specific laws about guns just like cars.
Lets add inspections when you cross provinces.
Restrict its use if too loud.
What if the operator shoots it too rapidly? Get a license revocation for a period of time maybe longer?
Sounds perfect!
AlternateRouteto Canada•Where the parties stand on gun control in the Canadian federal electionEnglish152·2 months agoWe have age restrictions, licensing requirements, and laws that revoke your ability to drive under some conditions so ya. Just like gun laws.
They used to be more lax, the current rules are more strict because it IS a problem and there are studies showing it to be. Hence the lower BAC limits.
AlternateRouteto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•Does Anyone Else Find the Sega Genesis' Sound Annoying?English3·3 months agoI always thought the SNES music was over all nicer, however some Genesis titles had some rocking tunes.
I was confused as it costs nothing but “enormous amounts of time” and back and forth with doctors to apply.
I had no idea there where for profit parasitic “optional” companies that would file for you.
The whole process should be easier and more automatic… Like something your doctor flags on your file and just gets prompted to confirm AGAIN some time.
Having to constantly re-apply especially if you have disabilities that make the effort difficult and no family supports is horrible.
