Canadian MPs Want to Verify People Watching Internet Porn. They Admit They’re Not Sure How Their Law Would Actually Work.
  • I was being mostly sarcastic. I realize its a non-partisan bill. But still, I don't see how this is popular.

    Canada to announce all new cars must be zero emissions by 2035
  • On an average day, I probably drive less than 20km. However, I'm frequently making trips about 300km out of the city with family. When I'm staying out that way I don't have a garage to park in. There is zero public transit and I don't think I've seen a single EV out that way.

  • My panel is full. I'd have to have a new outlet at 220v added and upgrade the panel. Can you charge two cars on the same circuit?

  • I'm excited to see how we upgrade everyone's houses to handle charging. I don't think my house can handle it without spending thousands to upgrade. Not to mention adding chargers to all apartments and condos.

    'I am a Zionist,' says Biden at Hanukkah event, promises continued military assistance to Israel
  • That won't happen with Hamas in charge. They are literal terrorists. Their entire purpose is to kill Jews, even at the cost of their own people. Maybe you think the attacks on Israel are justified. I do not.

  • 'I am a Zionist,' says Biden at Hanukkah event, promises continued military assistance to Israel
  • I don't know why you have to resort to insults. You're the second person to insult me and I am not really sure why since I only said I'm concerned about anti sentism.

    I also beleive Israel has the right to exist and be secure. This is not controversial. Most of the western world officially takes this position. If you want to insult me for that, then I guess go ahead.

  • I supposed I should have said "supported the creation of Israel" rather than helped.

  • Donald Tusk becomes Poland's prime minister with the mission of improving European Union ties
  • Croatia, an EU member, invented the neck tie. By supporting the neck tie, Poland will increase their relations with the EU.

  • 'I am a Zionist,' says Biden at Hanukkah event, promises continued military assistance to Israel
  • Israel is one USA's major allies. America helped in the creation of the Israeli state. He believes the Jews have the right to their own homeland. These are three likely reasons.

  • 'I am a Zionist,' says Biden at Hanukkah event, promises continued military assistance to Israel
  • I'm not sure why you are telling me to fuck myself. Go ahead and criticize the Israeli government for their policies. I have lots of criticisms for several governments.

    I would disagree that they are as bad as Russia. Hamas, a Palestinian governing party, attacked Israel. Of course Israel will defend itself. It's baffling to think otherwise.

    The fact that you state you would punch an orthodox jew just because they are an orthodox jew might mean you are not a good person though.

  • Thank you. The anti semitism on here is actually terrifying. Either there are a lot of people who don't realize what they are saying, or they truly are anti semites just waiting to come out of the closet.

    Luckily, they are not the majority in the real world. It seems to be highschool and university students who do not understand the implications of what they are saying.

  • L.A. poultry firm hired kids as young as 14 to work with sharp knives, Labor Dept. says

  • Who's winning the war in Ukraine?
  • Economically, Russia has also been hit hard. NATO has also expanded, which is a blow to Russia.

  • Should we believe Americans when they say the economy is bad?
  • That would require deflation.

  • Will there be a next RIM?

    I just watched the blackberry series last night. It was a great series and I recommend watching it.

    It really brought me back to that time. I actually lived in Waterloo from 2005 to 2010. When RIM was at its peak the world was watching Canada. It was a truly global company, leading the world in what would be smartphones. I knew so many people who worked at RIM and have a career because of that company. Times were great back then.

    It made me realize that after the fall of RIM, things have sort of been downhill. I know RIM is still around, but nothing like it used to be. Shopify has also been a great success story, but even still not on the same level as RIM.

    Why have we not had any real innovation in this country in almost 20 years?

    Allies attacking me

    I'm doing a terran playthrough. I am very late game and have a shipyard in getsu fune which is supplied by a material factory in asteroid belt. The terran patrols in asteroid belt killed about 50 of my miners and started attacking my station. My reputation dropped from 30 to 28. When I go into the sector I see the terran patrols as red and hostile. I pulled out all of my ships and set global orders to show asteroid belt.

    This obviously makes my station useless which leads to big problems at my shipyard. I also am cut off from the majority of terran space now since asteroid belt is a major middle sector to travel through.

    What I think happened is one of my ships must have hit a terran patrol ship by accident and triggered the whole thing.

    Kha AK had been attacking my miners in asteroid belt, so I sent in 20 takos, 8 katana, an Osaka and an asgard to defend my miners. The asgard was to find and destroy the khaak base, which I never found.

    I may have had a flack turret on the katana as anti fighters. They may have damaged some local patrols.

    My question is, how do I get the local patrols to stop being hostile? How do I avoid this from happening again?

    What is the point of the Tokyo?

    I've had a long running terran playthrough, since CoH came out. I've built asgard and Tokyo centred fleets. The asgards can one hit kill a K and even take out an I with a few shots. The asgard also had the same volume of ship slots for interceptors as the Tokyo. The asgard has L turrets.

    The Tokyo can launch more ships at once and looks pretty cool, but really that's it.

    Am I missing something?

    TIL about Regatta Roulette. Happy Regatta Day.

    The act of taking the gamble and getting shitfaced drunk the night before the Royal St. John's Regatta in St. John's, Newfoundland. Due to the precarious status of the holiday*, this is a risky venture. People may have to go to work with a hangover, or worse: still drunk. *The Regatta is one of very...

    Gaming @kbin.social MooseGas @kbin.social

    Has anyone played Barotrauma single player?

    It's 50% off right now and looks interesting. I don't have the capacity to assemble a co-op crew of real humans. From what I've read, the AI crew is very bad. Is the game actually as unplayable as some people make it seem with an AI only crew? Would I be better off saving my money?
