mikeboltonshair,

Can’t figure out if you are trolling or if you are just very stupid

mikeboltonshair,

You only like to read the headlines of anything posted don’t you…

I know it takes a bit of extra time but why don’t you give reading the whole thing a try. Could help make or break your point

mikeboltonshair,

I grew up with Christopher Reeves as Superman and I still think Cavill is the best Superman to ever be cast

mikeboltonshair,

lol what counties are starting to close their borders? Only countries that have closed borders have had them for a while Korea, Armenia/Turkey/Azerbaijan and Columbia/Venezuela

You straight up just made this shit up… speaking of rhetoric

I’m always amazed at the amount of international political scholars that are on Lemmy

mikeboltonshair,

I find it funny that you talk of rhetoric from the media and then go right ahead and do it yourself, fair enough on how you should have phrased it but then you still stay on the same line… there are those out there smarter than me that have seen this coming

Seen what coming? Possible closing of borders? Limiting immigration? Forced immigration from climate change? Rise in populist politicians?

Straight from the Canadian Government website

  • In the 2023–2025 Immigration Levels Plan, Canada aims to welcome from 410,000 to 505,000 new permanent residents in 2023, from 430,000 to 542,500 in 2024 and from 442,500 to 550,000 in 2025. These targets are incremental record highs for Canada and reflect the government’s belief that newcomers are instrumental in driving economic growth and building our communities. Achieving these levels will also mean reuniting more families and protecting democratic and human rights on a larger scale than ever before.*

So once again you are saying Canada is talking about immigration what are you even trying to say? You are pushing your narrative

mikeboltonshair,

Hey no problem with having an opinion I just can’t stand people online spewing hyperbolic divisive type stuff, we already get enough of it from every corner of the internet

And sorry that you think having a discussion online is confrontational bullshit maybe you are just being too sensitive

I actually do agree with some of the stuff you are saying which is the funny part, the world is seeing a tilt towards far right/populist types but there is no need to fire up the bullshit with exaggerated statements

Why do you think places like Lampedusa want their borders closed you had an influx of migrants that was more than the total population of the island that’s not sustainable so it’s not just a “Italy bad” scenario

mikeboltonshair,

Brought to you by Anti Vax, MLM huns/wellness coaches, do your own research scientists…

The internet has helped make everyone a fucking expert with no expertise

mikeboltonshair,

Don’t kid yourself, you “giving” him a few views isn’t gonna make any difference, taking a principled stance on it is like peeing in the ocean.

Just watch a few of his videos or listen to some of his podcasts, instead of letting other people give your their viewpoint on him just get your own viewpoint, do it without any bias either… pick an episode that you are interested in pick something you don’t agree with and pick something that could go either way. You might agree with some stuff and not other things but at least you determined that for yourself

I used to listen to his podcast but lost interest plus I’d only listen to the stuff I had any interest in, science and technology stuff. He had some odd views/stuff I didn’t agree with but that’s living in reality you aren’t always gonna agree with people.

mikeboltonshair,

This isn’t even boomer shit this is someone who has no idea what funny is, this is more at the 8 yr old humor level

mikeboltonshair,

Thanks for the link

What an absolute piece of shit

mikeboltonshair,

I too haven’t plugged my phone in to transfer anything since the 6s, obviously there are people who do like yourself and Apple limiting transfer speeds is ridiculous but the majority of people are basically using the cable for charging, I don’t have data to prove it but anecdotally I’d bet I’m right

They shouldn’t have capped the speeds but I highly doubt this will be an issue that the average person cares about

mikeboltonshair,

I’m sure he was told… But brain exploding emoji

mikeboltonshair,

Nah I shit on it because it was shit, for something that was supposed to be a comedy it wasn’t funny at all, it is subjective of course, I’m sure people did find it funny

Anything with a laugh track immediately turns me off, watch some of the clips with the laugh track deleted and that’s the humour you are left with.

mikeboltonshair,

This comment would have really benefitted from some punctuation

mikeboltonshair,

Deadwood had such an amazing cast and Ian Mcshane was amazing in it

mikeboltonshair,

mikeboltonshair,

Ffs date her and see what happens, you know find out what she’s like and all that…

Date the person not the number…

Also cuz I know the internet likes to be ridiculous with stuff don’t take the above statement and say some dumb shit like what if a 12 yr old was the number, this thread is about an 18 year old who is of legal age for the most part in most places

mikeboltonshair,

While you are right this has zero to do with whatever party you want to idolize it’s a problem for all sides we need to focus on all of them, none of these clowns should be able to make trades, they are in positions where they actually can shape the outcomes of their trades that’s fucking ridiculous

And on topic there needs to be some realistic term limits for these jackasses especially when they start to get older, nothing wrong with being old but if you are running a country and you get stuck staring at cameras in a daze it’s time to go… ffs most people I know can’t wait to retire and would do so even earlier if they could yet these goblins are slopping it up at the trough

This is a class issue always has been

mikeboltonshair,

As others here have already mentioned the infrastructure costs alone are a huge problem, where I live we are currently just trying to electrify the corridor and it’s not even the entire system, once again the overall rail infrastructure is already there (it’s just electrification) yet this is still going to take a minimum of a decade and the minimum cost is going to be more than $11bn, technically this saves money as you don’t need to buy a new fleet of rolling stock just upgrade the old ones.

So ya for a maglev you would need a completely different infrastructure and the rolling stock

mikeboltonshair,

Ya that’s dumb asf, especially if it’s just to charge the phone which the majority of people only need it for that.

Problem solved, I have usb c to lightning adaptor too anyone needs to borrow my cable to charge I can use it and so can they

'One Chip Challenge' pulled from shelves after mother says spicy tortilla chip contributed to her son's death (www.nbcnews.com)

Paqui, the maker of extremely spicy tortilla chips marketed as the “One Chip Challenge,” is voluntarily pulling the product from shelves after a woman said her teenage son died of complications from consuming a single chip....

mikeboltonshair,

But doing it for internet points sure as fuck is

mikeboltonshair,

Reading the guardian article I was like meh… some stuff is good and anything is better than nothing but then I read the actual DMA

“Fines: of up to 10% of the company’s total worldwide annual turnover, or up to 20% in the event of repeated infringements

Periodic penalty payments: of up to 5% of the average daily turnover

Remedies: In case of systematic infringements of the DMA obligations by gatekeepers, additional remedies may be imposed on the gatekeepers after a market investigation. Such remedies will need to be proportionate to the offence committed. If necessary and as a last resort option, non-financial remedies can be imposed. These can include behavioural and structural remedies, e.g. the divestiture of (parts of) a business.”

Fuck ya break up some of these fuckers if they keep breaking the rules and percentages of worldwide turnover? I can only get so errect

Even though this is EU based, if they actually follow through with the fines and possible breaking companies up I can’t see why the companies would not just make this a worldwide standard… I could be wrong of course cuz corporations are shit

mikeboltonshair,

Super cool thanks for posting this

mikeboltonshair,

Even though you got the downvotes it still made me laugh

Come on people lighten up a bit

mikeboltonshair,

I’ve def seen it both ways, lots of this person/this thing is bad types of threads on here with tons of people agreeing while spewing out pure nonsense

Like this lemmy.world/comment/3213143

I think Elon is a fuckwit but come on use some common sense it’s nowhere near treason this person has legitimately no clue what they are talking about and it’s upvoted to shit

On the other hand I’ve commented about stuff on here and if I had said the same things on Reddit I would have gotten downvotes, comments deleted or banned, and instead the comments were upvoted instead.

Idgaf about upvotes or downvotes it’s just interesting to see what the majority of people think is reasonable and that’s the way they show it.

mikeboltonshair,

Are you trying to tell me a one time (okay second time) payout of $500 isn’t gonna solve anything?

These fucking chimps have a coalition government and still can’t do anything… politicians have to be some of the worst slimebags on the planet

mikeboltonshair,

Right sorry I meant the supply and confidence deal which was supposed to have them working together on affordability issues, 2 “liberal” parties and they can’t even do that

mikeboltonshair,

I voted NDP last election, so it’s not a bashing a party thing for me I dislike politicians regardless of their party, and I get really upset when the ones I vote for are fucking useless

The Liberals have been in power for way to long I’m good to let the NDP fuck things up

Also I was wondering what do you mean about even on Lemmy? Is this supposed to be a Liberal only platform?

mikeboltonshair,

Absolutely I blame Trudeau he’s a fuckwit

I’m just amazed that even when it’s 2 supposed Liberal parties working together and these incompetent fucks still can’t pass Liberal issues

mikeboltonshair,

Oh yeah what are my leanings?

Okay sure fuck Freeland and the rest of the Liberal party, how’s that? He isn’t the problem? The guy that’s prime minister isn’t the problem okay…

No shit they are two different parties, they are still both Liberal parties, cuz they sure asf aren’t conservatives

mikeboltonshair,

Fuck extra careful, for me that was part of leaving Reddit way too much overzealousness when it came to moderation, plus Spez is a piece of shit

Think of Lemmy as Reddit the site that you browse, when you sign up to an instance it’s like you are on their personal website that just shows you the webpage so lemmy.world shows you the same Lemmy website that lemmy.ca shows you the only differences are you go by their rules/moderation on that instance, there is more to it but I’m just giving a basic picture of it when it comes to moderation and rules

You set up an account on lemmy.world read the sidebar, if the rules aren’t to your liking try another instance I like sh.itjust.works cuz they aren’t tight asses

mikeboltonshair, (edited )

No, think of an instance like some guy is hosting the visual part of the website on his computer named lemmy.world another guy hosts the same website but it’s on his computer named lemmy.ca their computers their rules, if they shut down their computer or you don’t like how they moderate then you sign up to someone else’s computer to view the website

The subreddit would be on that guys individual computer you could make a subreddit called technology on lemmy.world but even though the guy with the lemmy.ca computer didn’t set up that subreddit you can still view it, it’s basically a portal to view everyone else’s Reddit

If you use an app they have ways of viewing all of Lemmy, All shows you all the “subreddits across everyone’s computers, local would just be the subreddits created on that computer that you signed up to, then subscribed would be subreddits you subscribed to… technology on lemmy.world and just making one up but worldnews on lemmy.ca

mikeboltonshair,

I didn’t realize that so thanks for clearing that up, part of my reply was just giving the general idea so it’s good to get full answer

mikeboltonshair,

I care about the companies behind the products I use…

in the process of leaving chrome

Lol, just switch browsers ffs this isn’t some life changing shit you need to migrate over

Also on the topic, no… corporations are generally garbage anyway don’t look to them for moral guidance

mikeboltonshair,

Makes sense I do 99% of my browsing on my on my phone and I don’t work in an office so no work profile, I’m glad you said how you use them as I never thought I’m of it being a big thing but for you it is, so I get you

I’m also not smart so that works for both of us lol

The moral guidance was more about the original poster and the thread itself 👍

mikeboltonshair,

Looks great I’d use the bottoms ones for sure

mikeboltonshair,

This is what happens when people base their entire world and political beliefs on identity, they always have to bring it up lol

Anyone who identifies as something and bases their entire personality on it is boring as fuck, my personality is all about my sexual interests, my personality is all based on my religion, my skin colour, my favourite beer…. Fucking snooze, 1 dimensional cardboard cutouts

mikeboltonshair,

But their worldview is the right one don’t you know

mikeboltonshair,

Or this also might be hard to believe but she could actually be fully grown and capable of having her own agency

mikeboltonshair,

I get the sentiment but fuck… every time I see this type of comment it makes it seem as though women are meek powerless individuals it’s like backhanded feminism

mikeboltonshair,

Okay fair enough, but stating it like that means that it’s impossible for anyone to fight against that? So once again people have no agency?

mikeboltonshair,

I get it’s still a problem I agree, my point is it shouldn’t always just be assumed this is the case that a person has no ability to fend off anyone with a larger power dynamic

mikeboltonshair,

So you were diagnosed by a doctor as having PTSD from watching a movie?

That’s a new one

mikeboltonshair,

Fucking media… find the idiot that actually wants to be on tv and interview them, easy way to get engagement… it’s like there’s a certain type of person that wants to be tv

mikeboltonshair,

This is the same shit my place is going through right now (we find out if it will be ratified today actually) we don’t have any paid sick days and the new cba has a whopping 3 in there, the company is tacking that on as more money in your pocket like as if it’s somehow more per hour

mikeboltonshair,

“Eat memos *covered in Big Mac™️ sauce”
