Nice to see an alternative. The fact that KSP2 is still for sale is just shameful. It’s effectively abandonware.

Canada needs major electoral reforms.

As citizens, the only say we have in government is a single checkmark written on a piece of paper every 4 years. We have no input in our federal governance beyond that and there is no repercussions if a politician decides to just not do what they promised.

Alberta’s victim complex knows no bounds.

This.

What a lot of people think of as “Vancouver” is actually a mass span of multiple cities all mushed up against each other. The actual city of Vancouver is only a small piece of the Lower Mainland.

Been with Posteo for years now. They’re very solid.

The ultimate form is basically what the US has done / is doing: Sell off everything to corporate interests and wash their hands of it.

Can’t say I am surprised even slightly. Following up the smash-hit of Control with a whimsical, tongue-in-cheek, class bssed FPS co-op multiplayer game was a really stupid move. That’d be like Valve saying they’re releasing Half-Life 3 as a third person extraction shooter.

They seem pretty disconnected with what their fans actually want. The world and lore that Control establishes (and links with Alan Wake, ofc) is so rich and interesting with so many mysteries and unknowns left untapped. They could’ve continued the story with Jesse or another character and it probably would’ve sold like hotcakes.

A complete shutdown of the Albertan economy would be amazing. Fuck Smith and the UCP.

The most corrupt provincial government in Canada doing what it does best.

Now this was unexpected.

Very strange game; not quite the usual SS fare. Banger soundtrack though.

This. Canadians are understandably angry at the USA right now but they need to accept the reality that we share a border with the US and that we still have to do what we can to maintain somewhat peaceful relations.

And what about from the US? Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation? The fact that,from coast-to-coast, all our conservative politicians are parroting Trumpian talking points and flying down to US to attend meetings with Heritage Foundation members?

Also obligatory reminder that NatPo is owned by PostMedia, an American conglomerate that owns several news agencies that pose as being Canadian.

I don’t really follow this company or its games that closely but whenever I see them pop up in the news it always seems like they go out of their way to make the worst decisions possible.

Soon that pile will be so big that we can use it as a barrier to seal us off from the US completely.

Had a similar looking style of toaster oven in the past, although I’m not sure if it was Oster or not. Either way, it had the exact same problem and was legitimately dangerous when the doors were open.

The doors were mechanically linked together so if you bumped a door by mistake then both would slam closed on your hand, hot metal and glass going into your skin. They also had to open 100% (which is rather wide, taking up a lot of space) or they would spring closed and, again, burn you.

From a strategic perspective, it’s probably best to hold off until they need that boost. Wait until it is closer to election time and then cancel it an ride the popularity surge through the polls. Cancelling it now would make a lot of people happy but won’t last long.

I only ever go to a proper, sit-down restaurant like twice a year. Earlier in the spring, my dad got paid a reasonable amount for a big job so he took us both out for dinner at a average family restaurant. We each had some pasta with garlic bread.

After both meals, associated taxes, and tip were tallied up the bill was nearly $70CAD. For 2 pasta dishes in a casual restaurant.

I could not imagine paying those prices with any sort of frequency. Holy crap.

Their emotional support Kirk.

What the fuck

It’s been a hot topic over the years just how screwed Vancouver would be in the event of a disaster. The amount of ways out of the Lower Mainland can be counted on one hand.
