It used to matter more, back when cold booting was way more common, and leaving your computer on was way less common, and people didn’t have a computer in their pockets for most computer tasks.

Kinda like how boot time on smartphones used to matter because people had to restart them fairly frequently.

When there is a thing you want to do, and you have to wait for a a stupid machine to get ready before you can do it, it sucks.

Nah brah, gimme more of this penis obsession

Yes.

But mostly that’s just how the song goes.

It was great. Kinda like sunny D, but less cloyingly sweet and more refreshing iirc (it’s been a long long time). A mix of fruit juices, but mostly orange.

I mean, that probably depends on the country, right? Tbf I don’t know much about them.

The point simply is that Canada isn’t especially left. We can’t be, since we’re joined at the hip to the USA.

I know that Trump plans to “drill baby drill” but realistically they don’t need to replace our oil at all; if they lost our supply entirely it’d just make their gas a bit more expensive. They already have a surplus.

He’s probably right wrt the USA needing our exports, as much as it sucks for us.

Maybe now we’ll actually diversify our industries and seek out new buyers.
Probably not though, since PP is gonna be in charge and that man baby only wants to double down on selling oil to the USA, and thats the entire extent of his economic plan. And by that I mean he is gonna throw money at oil companies and hope it magically turns into more sales to the USA.
What’s the opposite of diversify?

Sometimes I get kinda pedantic.

When i joined the fediverse I decided to make a break from my old usernames.

Canada is just America but 2 election cycles behind. We’re very similar politically, most of the left leaning appearance is just lip service, not policy. Look at how we continue to treat indigenous peoples.

I don’t think that UBI is the predominant reddit viewpoint either - I think that’s just the subs you’re in.

I’m Canadian too, and I certainly don’t consider reddit as left of center on average. It’s almost like 4chan lite.

But on that note, if you’re looking for Canadian instances, there are a few good ones.
The obvious one is lemmy.ca, but the other (bigger?) one is sh.itjust.works which is bilingual and I think is québécois.
Presumably a Canadian instance would have relatively Canadian political leanings, although as has been said before, instance doesn’t really matter.

The instance you’re on only matters in so far as which other instances they’ve defederated.
You can probably find more centerist instances, but it doesn’t really matter because your friend is probably just going to be in the same communities anyways.

I’m not really sure I’d call reddit left of center, though.

Just learned it was made by the Clearly Canadian folks. I suspect that I wouldn’t like it as much anymore.

Beep, however, I imagine I’d still love.

That and Beep are on my list.

I suspect that I wouldn’t actually like Orbitz now that I’m an adult and not impressed by little colorful blobs in my drink

Beep

Also Orbitz, but I feel like that wouldn’t stand the test of time

Just learned its by the makers of Clearly Canadian, which would be on my list, except it came back as of a couple years ago.

And on Celine there was a pig

I don’t think it could.

The client doesn’t have access to all the videos, it’ll have to query the (distributed???) platform to find matching videos.
And the platform is gonna need to serve up some kind of metadata for the client to track (are hashtags enough???)
And the platform is gonna need to be keeping stats on the videos for the client to match against
And what would that query even look like? A gargantuan weighted map of hashtags? I can’t imagine hashtags alone would be enough.

What is the point of this comment?

The world is worse off for having spent time reading this

Edit: deleted because I was putting words in someone’s mouth, they can speak for themselves

Butt plugs

I mean I know it wasn’t really funny… But a downvote? It was really so bad that it got a downvote?

I’m not even mad, just so so confused
