There is a big difference between a good person that will not intentionally do you harm and is happy to help vs one that would enter risk to save you in life or death.

I know lots of people I am confident would do me no harm and treat me well. I know a few that do not care / can’t be trusted.

As for my life that is fairly limited to select family and a few friends.

So I am not a fan of PP but how is the hypocritical? He isn't even related by blood to this relative it isn't Hypocritical unless he actual has defended this relative staying in Canada.

Mall traffic has been declining for decades. It's not like I haven't gone into one every few years to look around.. The last time I purchased something there was dress cloths for work, and maybe some dress shoes.

NOTHING about those stores has kept up with the times or trends, they just kind of kept falling more and more into disrepair as time went on..

It isn't even US competitors, a lot of what they sell I would go elsewhere to Canadian options for anyway.

I am more likely to purchase furniture and appliances from The Brick or Trail Appliances.

The Bay or HBC was decades over due for a complete overhaul of its assortment and its retails space.

FYI the Kirkland Signature 2-ply is labels made in Canada with domestic and imported materials. (obviously less Canadian than going with a Canadian brand but still made here)

Good thing as a Canadian I don't care what Americans THINK of us too much. They value their independence so do we.

I don't even need to do the math, you would have two liquids, one you are boiling for steam and one you are using for fuel.. Replace that ALL with fuel..

Trump was found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records and then received an unconditional discharge of his sentence.

Trump would just pardon him.. Nothing you can do now.

In my home lab I have them separate the OPNSense box has full performance on its own HW, only needs to be patched once in a while and is super stable.

I have managed to crash / lockup one of my proxmox hosts at least once while messing around with HW past though or by giving a guest enough cores to slow the whole box down.

Family never gets interrupted playing games or streaming Netflix with my lab separate from the critical internet service.

New versions of OPNsense installed with ZFS support snapshots before upgrading natively sort of taking one of the promox vm tricks out of the pro list making it neutral.

OpenOMF is an Open Source remake of "One Must Fall 2097" by Diversions Entertainment.

For those that had no idea what this abbreviation stood for.

console = network, game = content.. is my argument.

IE Nintendo was happy to sell more units with Sega content, and sega moving to software / content had no choice but to sell on other platorms.

I’m not sure if Nintendo would get a percent of a 3rd party devs profits.

Nintendo makes money on EVERY cart sold and every electronic purchase.. it is a major part of their EXPENSIVE model and why Nintendo platform games always seem more expensive. It is also why they still sell cart based systems so they are the ONLY supplier of the media, but now they have their own eStore as well.

Nintendo allowed Sega’s Sonic Heroes to compete with Super Mario Sunshine on their own game conosle

99% sure that only happened after Sega stopped making competing consoles. IE more game content benefited their console platform

 

Probably the first article in a while that clearly outlines WHERE the negations are at and what each side wants.

 

There are several common words and terms I would like to stop seeing posts about but only in specific communities. Having the words or terms blocked in other communities or global matches too many things.

It would also be nice for the filter to be Title, URL or body specific.

 

I was recently trying to get some of the 4 player local games I have to work remotely.. Some have native multiplayer but with limitations (castle crashers only lets two local and two remote players play) bople battle only allows one local player in remote multi player mode.

However for both the above I was able to get remote play together working which basically let me map the remote player to a controller and play the game in local mode.

This however only worked on these games, I THINK they are linux native.. Games that didn't work / provide no controller mapping for remote play together Streets of rage 4, TMNT Redders revenge did not work. These games show support for remote play together in the steam library but I suspect the limitation is on the steam deck?

Anyone else have experience with Remote Play Together on the steam deck? It is nice as the remote party doesn't need a copy of the game and as noted gets around some of the multi player limits of some games.

Any suggestions? Alternatives? Tweaks?

 

Wouldn't be the holiday shopping season without some payment processing outages.

 

Due to variable subject length and these items being part of the same line as the subject they get pushed around a lot which makes them hard to see find when scrolling through history.

Would be nice if these links / scores where at the front of the subject OR the "next line" to be consistent.

lemmy.world is a victim of an XSS attack right now and the hacker simply injected a JavaScript redirection into the sidebar.

It appears the Lemmy backend does not escape HTML in the main sidebar. Not sure if this is also true for community sidebars.

 

askacanadian has no posts yet is "trending"

 

Just curious as this is all fun and open till it scales to expensive. What is the lemmy.ca plan to sustain / fund it self?

Constant donation nagging like Wikipedia?
