  • Canadian Media Pushing Pro-LNG Report Didn’t Mention Author Worked for Oil and Gas Lobby Firm

  • But stories in Canada’s national newspaper of record, The Globe & Mail

    Debatable. Also, G&M puts out some left-of-centre (left-ish?) views on social matters, but is pretty staunchly right-wing on anything fiscal and more often than not endorses the Conservatives. It's not surprising that they would push a pro money, climate denying viewpoint in the guise of being pro-environmentalist. It's kind of their modus operandi... Appeal to the left to convince them the right is doing things responsibly.

  • Canada Post is already one of the world’s most cost-effective postal systems

  • Interesting breakdown. I really don't know enough to say what should be done but I remember thinking the cuts would not be any kind of improvement. It's interesting to see it with specific revenue numbers in the real world.

  • They can do a lot of that now with Recall even if you use Chrome.

    They also want you to use their browser because they want to direct you to bing/copilot and get ad revenue from all of your clicks.

  • They wanted to do that with internet explorer but regulators weren't monopoly-friendly back then.

  • Thanks, I came looking for this clarification.

    LLMs love giving the sidereal day as the length for some reason.

  • They only have so much space.

  • Hide "Posts" button?

  • Isn't that button in the toolbar at the bottom? How would you get back to the feed if you went to your inbox?

  • Making someone's day

    Jump

  • The only reference I can find related to that says she was adopted to be part of the French resistance (not by the original artist(s).)

    Mafalda from Argentina looks similar, but again nothing about being a Nazi that I can find.

  • Is it a bad idea to learn Russian because of everything?

    Jump

  • Learn Mandarin, Spanish, and maybe Hindi, if you're planning for the future.

  • Pretty sure this is fake. There are very similar but less believable versions out there (exact same set up, but a flying hyena, for example).

  • I think it's more taboo to smoke cigarettes here in Vancouver.

  • Is this some Lemmy drama shit I don't know about?

  • Sounds like a classic chicken and egg problem. Or circular reasoning.

  • What YouTube channel to you has degraded in time?

  • I unsubbed after the convoy thing, but I didn't know about the other bit or I would have blocked him earlier.

  • What YouTube channel to you has degraded in time?

    Jump

  • Youtube has a feature to ABC test different thumbnails to test which one will be the most popular. You might see one or all of them depending on whether you click right away. Eventually the channel will choose the most successful one.

  • Yup, dropped him when he came out in support of the convoy and then got annoyed when people told him to stfu.

    Sadly he's gained back and surpassed his subscriber numbers since the big drop around that time.

  • Does anyone know of a plug-in or extension that will make your web browser convert all websites into what they would look like in 1999?

  • Sometimes you see almost that when css hasn't loaded. Maybe you can turn off css in browser settings, site settings, or dev tools in the browser.
