  • Goodbye EV sales mandate. Hello purchase rebates. Carney shakes up Canada's auto industry

  • Where are you seeing a model 3 for $38,000? They’re all over 65k on the website.

  • Billie Eilish and "stolen land"

    Jump

  • You need to tag Billie Eilish with her Lemmy username if you expect her to read this.

    Can't Always Get What You Want

    Jump

  • The version of this I heard growing up was:

    A prostitute calls out to a man walking down the road “for $50 I’ll do anything you can say in 3 words”.

    The man said “PAINT MY HOUSE”.

    This joke didn’t age well. Partially because no one has a house anymore.

  • Is your city building a ton of banks and gas stations?

    Jump

  • High col area means buildings are disappearing and being redeveloped as condos around me.

    Gas stations are slowly dying as the land gets too expensive to justify a low traffic gas station, and increasing EV popularity is further shrinking their appeal.

    Banks seem to be infiltrating stupid places now, like fucking indoor shopping malls.

    There’s nothing like seeing a fucking BANK to make you not interested in visiting an area. If I don’t bank there I will never walk in. If I do bank there I will walk in once or twice a year. Such a shitty use of high visibility retail space.

    One wing of my dying mall is entirely banks, dentists, and cell phone stores. Why would anyone want to stroll through that?

  • ICE Employees Vent on Reddit, Saying They're Not Getting Paid and Still No Insurance Despite Promises

    Jump

  • Pay your Nazis, people! Yeesh!

  • Exposed Musk Now Insists Epstein Files Don’t Matter

    Jump

  • “What matters is not release of some subset of the Epstein files, but rather the prosecution of those who committed heinous crimes with Epstein,“ he wrote in an X post Saturday morning.  “When there is at least one arrest, some justice will have been done. If not, this is all performative. Nothing but a distraction,” he added.

    A broken clock and all that…

  • Pierre Poilievre wins leadership review with 87.4% approval

    Jump

  • Congrats Pierre, you won an election.

  • Germany and Israel hold first joint exercise to counter cyberattacks

    Jump

  • I’m sure this is a big, professional, intelligence operation, but I still can’t help but think it’s just a LAN party.

  • How do I peel a hard boiled egg?

    Jump

  • There’s so much bullshit out there about this “problem”. They’re mostly crap.

    The one thing I found works well is to stop the eggs into an ice water bath and let them cool for at least 10 minutes before peeling. They really seem to hold together quite well almost all the time.

    But nothings guaranteed. I remember some chef on Reddit years ago said you can be as good at peeling eggs as anybody - they aren’t all going to peel cleanly. That’s why when they are peeling tons of eggs in a restaurant (for deviled eggs or any dish where appearance matters), the rejects go into the bowl for making egg salad later.

  • New Dishwashers that aren't junk (America)?

    Jump

  • IMO Bosch is the only company in the world that makes dishwashers.

    My parents have a Miele that works really well, but I’m not a fan of the racks and the way they designed the tines - nothing seems to load efficiently.

    Bosch Bosch Bosch.

  • When someone's telling you something in great detail that you already know about, do you: A) patiently listen and let them finish?

    Jump

  • I’d add on: depends if it’s emotional.

    Sometimes people gotta process things and telling their story is what they actually needed.

    Sometimes they’re giving me directions to the post office, and I can happily cut that shit short without anyone getting offended.

  • Looking for sign ideas.

    Jump

  • I would skip using words like “nazi” or “fascist”. If someone isn’t very politically involved and they see that, they’re going to immediately roll their eyes and dismiss you as an extremist.

    It’s hard to hit on a message that sticks with people without offending them, and I think you want to remain on the side of keeping them as allies since you’re running more of a messaging campaign than anything.

    These are all terrible, but they have the kind of vibe I’m thinking of:

    Should you be shopping down there?

    Crossing the border isn’t safe.

    ICE doesn’t care if you’re just buying groceries.

    Is your family really safe travelling to the US right now?

  • Sign in Safeway in Smithers, BC

  • I’m seeing a lot of items that are now using “Packaged in Canada”. I assume that’s complete bullshit.

  • I think any purely manual, highly repetitive job would kill me. Like assembly line work.

    I worked as a dishwasher in a small restaurant as a teenager. Those 2 4-hour shifts felt like they lasted DAYS.

  • Vance Endorsed Slashing Civil Liberties Protections During Minneapolis Visit | The VP said that the executive branch should be able to issue its own warrants to enter homes.

  • He thought it was “oaf of office” and assumed he was fine.

  • Trump threatens 100% tariffs on all Canadian goods if Canada 'makes a deal with China'

    Jump

  • For a guy that’s always crowing about making deals, he sure seems unhappy about people making deals.

  • Help me design a birdhouse!

    Jump

  • https://nestwatch.org/learn/all-about-birdhouses/

    Pausing the woodworking aspect for a second, you might want to take a look at what nesting birds live in your exact area (a bird feeding specialty store can probably give great local advise) and what entrance hole sizes they need. There might be an obvious choice based on what you want to do with the existing hole, and it’ll drive the dimensions and placement of your final birdhouse.

    My dad did a similar project years ago but it rarely got any interest from the birds in his yard - I think the bit of stump, hole size, and direction it faced weren’t a good combination.

    Cool project!

  • Guess Carney really pissed off the orange turd.

  • I thought it was a good speech but damn, I didn’t realize how good it was.
