If I open a store in my town and start selling fake crap I can’t go and say “sorry not my fault I’m just a reseller you need to deal with the guy who sold it to me” I will be brought to court and loose why is Amazon allowed to sell fakes and non UL complient equipment?


What’s fumny to me is I remember watching a computer show on TV in late 90s they where interviewing an Adobe representative about the new Photoshop 5.0…

The TV host asked what adobe though about pirated copies and the representative said on LIVE TV that Photoshop price was for professional who make a living out of Photoshop and that any hobbyist had nothing to fear about using a pirated copy as it only served to get more people knowledgable about Photoshop and if these started doing business in photography and neede Photoshop they would then pay for it so to not be unprofessional.


I switched from Scotiabank to Tangerine (owned by Scotiabank) and went from 17$ a month with 5 free e-transfer to a 0$ a month with unlimited e-transfer. And the rates are also fair. And I qlso got a free 200$ for switching bank lol.



Nice ! You made me think of spinning up a little server. It’s been a while since I’ve dabbled in managing a server and not aure I have the time for that. But you made the chances if me going for it much higher.

Would a raspberry pi 4 be enough for running it ?


That’s refreshing from the normal News cycle.

Thanks for sharing. BBS’s and epic pinball are the reasons for my interest in computer as a kid. I would watch my friend go on BBS’s and play text based game and download ASCII art all day to the point I learned a lot the got my first real computer (386 sx), I had a coco3 as a kid but that was just BASICS with no floppy or tape to load or save programs.

The 386 was such a new world of possibilities especially with software downloaded from BBS’s, took ages but got lots of kool games and music files (.mod) etc… of course porn for a young teen was also nice lol.


For fucks sake why isn’t all assitive devices open source already. Making profit over disabled people misery is such a evil thing ! The capitalist are so fucking out of touch it’s crazy. Kids dying, disabled people pressed for every penny they have etc… how the fuck did we let things go this bad.


You ever heard of lossless compression? Well they developed lossfull anti compression, it compresses and decompresses the images so many times that the added artifacts create a larger file than original ! Impressive ain’t it?



The options I see on this screenshot seem to be options that need a data connection to work, so I can understand a subscription for that. There is no free Internet mobile connection afterall. The monthly payment option is expensive for sure but the annual option is not too bad.



Only already rich landlords will be able to buy them, not me or anyone who needs it.


Worst is that it happened before in Japan so the organizers should have known.

But also the blind forever is exaggerated, uvc exposure damage to the eyes is temporary.

Yeah, I’m with EBox but they got bought by Bell. I am awaiting the degradation of service.


No matter there is not much engagement on Lemmy, the only comment I see says it all clearly and concisely.


I hate the term clean energy for nuclear ! It is not clean energy ! Where do you put the waste ? If it’s so clean I guess you dont mind if we use YOUR backyard to put the waste ?



Retailers, workers in northeastern Ontario deal with more theft in their stores
Edit : Changed link to non AMP one. Edit2 : Apparently I HAVE to use the original shitty title from the article. Grocery theft is on the rise but we won't tax the rich or bring back down the prices, we will jail those in need instead. Money is better spent in the police forces anyway /s

I’ve always said, when you grow it yourself, you put time and money to grow the best crop you can. When you grow to make money you go for the fastest and cheapest grow.


Donyou realize that the top 1% is creating around 25% of the pollution with their Jets and yacht etc… and they horde moat of the houses to profit from the fact you need housing. And they create food scarcity to rise the prices etc… so yeah keep thinking you’ll become one of them some day. Even if you made 1 million a year you would still need to live a thousand years to make a billion.


And they will cry and obtain more subsidies and tax cuts while we get fucked in every hole.



I dont think you can be seen as a very bad landlord like the scum some are if you rent your basement in a fare manner. I believe owning multiple homes to rent them AND get a return on your “investment” when you sell them due to crazy inflation since all the homes are owned by the same groups makes them bad. I don’t know your situation so I don’t judge… Yet. lol.


Fucking rampant corruption everywhere. Do they not realize we are about to fail totally if it keeps going like that ? I mean I make what used do be a descent salary but I’m about to go homeless and lose my car if I can’t find a brake (Of course I can’t some asshole decided to bust my Tire, hurr SUV BAD, why don’t you do it to privet jets instead?)… Sorry had to rant.


My landlord pays 1200$ for her mortgage and I pay 1000$ fir renting the mold infested basement !


The crass landlord trying to use that as a proof he is not a bad landlord! Ouch ! The building had a ton of known issues he never fixed!


Using it since this morning, works great, has the hide read post I so wanted. Very intuitive UI and all. But I had not realized it yet, as I seldom post myself, that it was not done. It feels complete and yet it’s missing one very important part for the community to keep growing lol.
