Ya, this is one of those times where I’m hoping they both lose. Both leaders houses and their entire cabinets get bombed to rubble while the innocent civilians evade all damage.

Really hope we go with the Gripens instead.

Ya, very hard to boycott the Orange turd with the currently available cars.

If you buy VERY SPECIFIC Honda or Toyota models you can get one that’s made in Japan. Or made in Canada with /mostly/ Canadian parts. But they’re all north of $60k.

Gonna be really close to zero.

It’s so damn great!

And that just underlines my decision to quit Duolingo when it got contaminated with AI stop.

I can tell you from experience that AI was worse at teaching me a language than humans were.

To be fair, I’d hate my life, too, if I lived next to a bunch of MAGA morons.

I’m liking him so far. We made the right choice this election.

Yup, for sure that happens. Esp in S America. But thankfully, it’s pretty easy to spot.

It’s also pretty easy to spot the folks who are totally independent, working out of their own homes, with their own gear.

100% OF, Chaturbate, or whatever. Only ethical way to go. The actors are fully in control of what they’re willing to do, and for how much.

Because Oracle sucks donkey balls.

People went to Qatar to sit in slave-built stadiums. Don’t expect any morals from FIFA fans.

Ratios, I think? Was pretty early. Math thing was way to easy and I stopped pretty fast. Probably be fine for an 8 year old, but for an adult it was way too simple. And ya, occasionally it was flat out wrong. Like 2+2=5 wrong.

Yup, left Duolingo at the start of this year and broke my 1500+ day streak. Because the AI slop was terrible. From nonsensical language to math questions that were flat-out wrong, I just saw zero benefit to continuing to give them money.

This is why Canadians won’t cross the border. The US is no longer a safe country to visit. Innocent people being thrown in to concentration camps and shipped off to El Salvadore to die… Thanks, but no thanks. Ima go to France this holiday instead. Nice and safe over there.

Yup. Boycott is only part of it. The other part is that it’s not safe. ICE is out of control and has already sent Canadians to jail for zero reason.

I’m planning a 15 hr drive next month that I’d normally do thru the US as it shaves a few hours off. But not this time. You literally couldn’t pay me to cross that border - I can’t risk getting shipped off to some concentration camp in El Salvidore because ICE doesn’t like my hybrid car, or whatever.

Lol, think I was gushing about Hyprland there.

Might be a little out of control…

Never give EA money - they’ll just use it to destroy yet another cherished dev or franchise.

“But I want…” NO!
“But Star Wa…” NO!
“But Ma…” NO!

There’s a lot of “chocolate” in the US that doesn’t qualify as chocolate in sane countries because it has too much wax or other additives in it. US “chocolate” bar in Canada has to be called a “candy” bar.
Same way their “milk” has too much other garbage in it to qualify as “milk” in Canada.

Lindt, otoh, is /actual/ chocolate. So it’s seen as luxurious.
