What show comes to mind when you think of Canadian TV?
  • The Red Green show. Used to watch it on PBS with my dad when I was a kid.

  • Good game soundtracks?
  • Star Control 2: The Ur-Quan Masters has some great tunes.

    Edit: and The Talos Principle

  • Ashlee Simpson Just Dropped Major News—and Former Emo Kids Are Losing It
  • Ashlee Simpson is emo? Huh. I guess I could see her as a Hot Topic scene kid.

  • Oh yeah, that's the good stuff...
  • Good point, California. I’ll update my comment to clarify.

  • Oh yeah, that's the good stuff...
  • Works better in dry environments. Went to California for the first time and finally understood the wonder of shade in a ‘dry heat’. In the mid-Atlantic where I live it just always feels like a hot wet blanket, shade or no shade.

  • The weekend is too short
  • This is amazing and accurate to how we feel.

  • The weekend is too short
  • This is us. We often have to make sacrifices that our friends and family don’t (seriously don’t understand how people afford to eat out all the dang time and go on so many vacations) but it’s worth it.

    Edit: as an example, my 10 year old nephew has a brand new iPad and just got an Apple Watch. Meanwhile, we are holding out as long as we can to replace my wife’s busted old tablet and can’t ever imagine spending money on a smartwatch when we have phones. Obviously not everyone has this privilege that we do and I am thankful for it.

  • New song from Suburban Eyes - band from former Mineral member

    Am I getting old or anime is even cringier now?
  • This is how I’ve felt about anime forever. No hate if you like it, it just isn’t my thing so what you describe is what it’s always seemed like to me since I was a teen in the early 00s.

  • Baking Bread in a Solar Oven 🍞☀️
  • That is really neat, thanks for sharing the video. Looks like it might be able to move to track the sun. The bread looks delicious as well :-).

  • Baking Bread in a Solar Oven 🍞☀️
  • This is super cool. Does it work when it’s cloudy?

  • Strongbad Email #58 - Dragon (Trogdor the Burninator)
  • Yes! The first SBEmail I ever saw back when it was new…I feel old.

  • Ronald lies to children
  • I’m partial to Five Guys fries myself…

  • What Are Some TV Shows Based On Popular Movies You Didn't Know Existed?
  • There was a Back to the Future animated series I remember from being a kid too.

  • Would you move to another country?
  • If we could move to Iceland or Finland, we’d do it in a heartbeat.

  • Congratulations all.
  • My plan too in October 2025.

  • CrowdStrike effectively bricked windows, Mac and Linux today.
  • I wish my Windows work machine wouldn’t boot. Everything worked fine for us. :-(

  • Refuses to network anything
  • We just watched it last year and I can’t believe I missed it the first go round. We were blown away.

  • Refuses to network anything
  • That whole arc made me sad.

  • Cold calls aren't spam!

    I saw this and thought, well yeah that VP is right, cold calls are annoying spam. However, based on the insane comments by all the salespeople, you'd be wrong. Like, are salespeople that out of touch with normal people?

    Help me understand?

    So I've been doing a deep dive into all this stuff recently, I find it to be fun and interesting. However, I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what all these whistleblowers are alleging. Basically, the idea is that there is a secretive group of USG employees that know what is going on with UAPs and researching stuff, but Congress and the President know nothing of it and have no oversight of it? Is it just a bunch of high-ranking military people who pass the knowledge on to their successor when they retire? Or is the idea that all of these whistleblowers and Congress are in on it and this is all part of a slow 'controlled disclosure' scenario? Or is it a combined scenario where some members of the Executive Branch DO know about it but others don't?

    Obviously, there are no hard and fast answers to this, I just feel like I keep hearing conflicting things about who in the USG knows what, and wondering if there is any kind of rough consensus about this? Probably a fools errand, but I figured I'd at least ask.

    Wife was just diagnosed

    Hello all, I am a 39M whose wife (42F) was just diagnosed with ADHD. We’ve had a suspicion ever since our 6 year old was diagnosed and we started doing a deep dive into it and realizing a lot of the symptoms fit her. Even some of the memes from this community helped her to start looking into it herself. She is relieved to find out she’s not just ‘a disorganized slob’, that there is a reason for her struggles, but now the real work begins.

    My question is: what do you wish your partner would have known/done for you? I want to be as supportive as possible and make sure I’m not contributing to any negative feelings, and help her find ways to build coping mechanisms. Just looking for any advice!
