Nice, more debt Canada can’t afford

How about air dropping some housing locally or maybe some groceries

I used to work with ocean researchers and they are some of the most depressed, heavy drinkers I’ve ever met. A big reason I moved on from that workplace.

Imagine writing scientific papers on an ocean you already know is dead. Research which is funded by the government, the same people who allow clear cut logging inland which has decimated the salmon population, which is vital to ocean life. So you better not be too loud about that when it’s time to apply for more funding.

Clear cut logging, so our useless commonwealth friends over in the Atlantic have wood chips to burn and toilet paper to waste.

Or, the absolute molestation of our mountains so the rest of the world can buy more phones and EVs, which has destroyed said watersheds.

Long way’s off though. This community is probably the most progressive one on the english speaking internet, and even they downvote people preaching veganism.

IMO, you should only be eating meat if you kill it yourself.

The people who tried cancelling the game are the reason it sold so well and that is hilarious. Everyone was talking about it, any advertising is good advertising

PS I pirated my copy

If you stand by what you preach you should basically stop buying anything. No matter what, a billionaire is getting your money, and they are all pieces of shit I promise.

Never, it is just free advertising

Why care about what a writer has to say about gender politics? I don’t. I don’t even know what she said specifically because it means nothing.

@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

My girlfriend literally was bullied by coworkers for playing the game. And she is the absolute sweetest. It is completely ridiculous

If I cared, I could easily go into the above dude’s post history to find an example of his money going towards some bigot to prove he’s a hypocrite. It doesn’t matter what you buy, your money is supporting bigotry, because at the top of the human social hierarchy are bigots. Welcome to the world. Picking on fellow peasants for something out of their hands is wrong.

I don’t even have to dig come to think of it, dude is typing to us on a device assembled by slaves or maybe even child slaves.

The boycotters or the people who played the game?

The downvote button doesn’t answer my question, I actually have no idea what you meant…

rab,
@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

Ok, but I mentioned this above, it’s literally impossible to live in society and not have your money funneling into a billionaire’s pockets who’s lobbying against your best interest.

Just in the realm of video games, probably buying the majority of games results in your money going to an objectively bad cause. Most rich people are scum.

I’m out of the loop on this whole thing because JK is a writer and doesn’t know anything about gender.

Can you specifically quote something she has said to prove your claim or is it really hearsay like the guy above claims?

rab,
@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

And how’s your moral compass?

You didn’t play Harry Potter, but are you a vegan? You know animals have feelings right?

Have you volunteered this week? You have time to bullshit with randoms on lemmy, why not use the time to make the world better?

What other games do you play, do you like Blizzard games?

Maybe you have an Xbox, you know what Bill Gates is up to right?

Do you use Amazon? Ever heard of their CEO?

I can go on and on and on. Get over yourself.

I read that today already, it is a lot milder than “wanting trans people to disappear”. Where are all the hateful tweets I have heard about?

Edit: nothing? Anyone?

Yeah I have to say what she says made a surprising amount of sense after what I was led to believe.

I still think she has no authority on the topic though and should stick to her domain.

rab,
@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

Of course, my issue is the people bullying others for their choices when they themselves could be doing better. I can’t stand hypocrites.

I bet all the people in this thread calling people bigots eat meat for every meal which to me is straight deplorable behaviour. But I’m not here to judge, I have my own faults too.

Linux sysadmin here too. I run Windows on my main workstation now because I have no patience for issues like sound not working when I join a video call and shit like that. Your post perfectly describes my gripe with Linux.

Windows sucks but 99 percent of problems are solved by simply rebooting the motherfucker.

rab, (edited )
@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

Similarly, maybe just luck, but I’ve not really had a problem with windows since windows 10/server 2019. Yeah it’s resource heavy but I can’t even recall anything I’ve specifically had to delve into forums to troubleshoot. That said I haven’t had to do any windows desktop support since windows 7, thank the gods.

I deployed several server 2022 vms at work due to special circumstance and its actually good out of box, I only disabled some print services and my gold image was ready. Those have been running for a year and I’ve only rebooted them due to patching. Very different than the windows I adminned back in the 2000s.

The Canada Indian immigration group on Facebook is fun. So much bitching about how it’s not as nice here as they are led to believe

Imagine believing a dev would do this on purpose, your game would just get cancelled

rab,
@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

Lol why would a dev intentionally do this only to get cancelled

Games are made to make money not cater to nazis haha

rab,
@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

Not when steam etc completely removes your game

rab,
@rab@lemmy.ca avatar

Yeah I see it constantly here on lemmy, the word being thrown around like it’s nothing, imagine holocaust victims reading this shit

Can you elaborate on the corvettes stuck in limbo, I haven’t heard of that

I like the way they used to be, when they made games
