  • That the US hates Canada hasn’t changed.

    This is just total nonsense, like most of the garbage that you post here. Talk to Americans - they’re embarrassed by how their government is treating Canada. We’re close allies and our biggest trading partners. There is no animosity between our peoples and the only ones who say there is are our enemies trying to seed division.

    (This guy runs a Russian propaganda sub on Lemmy.ca, check his history.)

    Your comment fits into your low effort Russian astroturing campaign where everybody in the west is bad and hates each other and Russia is good and should be allowed to invade anyone they want. Fuck off.

    Looks pretty spooky! The first movie really stuck with me. The second one, not so much, but I will never forget its intro sequence with the boat. I don’t think I can remember anything else about it.

    Here’s hoping the third one is good! Alex Garland as writer seems promising, as he wrote the original 28 Days Later.





  • Your DNS provider used to just be your ISP, but unfortunately Chrome and Firefox’s stupid DoH-by-default means an American company is your DNS provider, which is the worst possible option. (Chrome default’s to Google’s DNS servers - the company that makes money by tracking and selling ads. Firefox default’s to Cloudflare, which is the NSA’s dream.)

    Those defaults make DoH worse for Canadians, so I can see an argument for using CIRA + DoH being better than the default.

    However, in Canada, your ISP won’t tip off the authorities for you pirating anything. That’s complete FUD. If you’re going to make an argument that CIRA is more trustworthy than my ISP, you have to do better than that.

    I will say that the privacy policy and terms of use for CIRA’s Canadian Shield DNS seem to be reasonable with regards to privacy. The main issue I see is that they both say they can change the terms at any time, with no notice to you, so basically they can do whatever the hell they want at any time in the future.



  • I wish I could give a shit about the Green party but after like a decade of infighting, I couldn’t care less. We live in a time of global environmental emergencies and they’ve completely failed to capitalize on that.

    I was talking to a friend and we both mentioned how we saw Elizabeth May on TV talking beside someone and we weren’t sure whether it was her or the other guy who was the leader.

    Are they still fiscal conservatives? What stupid combination of policies.
