Isn’t it just hoarding but in digital space?

Sadly even if they’re not, it’s quantity over quality…just like the rest of the whole military there.

Thanks, appreciate it

Probably the same reason the whole party is still around. It would be awesome to get a real input from someone who lives in Mexico (preferably a normal person and not a summer beach home/mansion owner who pretends to live like normal people do), but honestly don’t know how likely they are to lurk here on Lemmy…surely there is at least one among us?

My skepticism stems mostly from the “popularity” of former president, supposedly reaching some 80%? Sounds pretty good if it’s genuinely true, but it’s eerily approaching fabled 90-100% authoritarian levels.

Surely it depends on the definition of “close/near”, have they given detailed specifics or is that not public info?

I mean you could argue that since these aren’t some intercontinental missiles, whatever is in their range, should be considered close?
Alternatively you could say, anything that can hit Kharkiv is fair game which opens it up a bit and not limiting the launchers to be “near” Kharkiv to retaliate.

Edit: seems like most of these articles are just reiterating the vague “close/near” and at most mention that US stance on long-range strikes has not changed.

Good bot

Few more places to consider if you’re in lower mainland:
Freshco/Chalo if you have the option over Safeway/IGA (same stuff, cheaper, though produce isn’t always super fresh).

Langley farm market for produce is great, often good deals and competes with big chains on prices on said produce, meat, not so much other stuff (again limited access depending on where exactly you live unfortunately).

I’d do Saveon only armed with price matching flyers or I’m after something very specific I can’t find elsewhere. Plus I’m not a huge fan of Jim Patisson or whichever carguy owns it.

City avenue market is also pretty good for produce and the occasional offers for other stuff.

Very location specific - if you like a good bread, check out European bakery in Poco, awesome rye that would cost you 3times as much in some “artisan” bakery and still cheaper than semi decent loaf from big chains.

Edit-stupid autocorrect

Shhh take your sensible nonsense somewhere else, we want outrage and shitting on everything here

Lol yea, I forgot what timeline we’re living in

As lucrative as Valve and Steam may seem to buy, even for 10x that amount, any analyst who is realistic about suggesting the purchase to another company would know that it isn’t worth it. Not that it’s a bad buy, but whoever can afford to buy it likely could not help themselves but fuck it up and run the whole operation to the ground.

This is probably one of your better bets and you’ll learn far more than Lemmy currently has to offer, unless one of those production people who have worked in the industry (like my former colleagues) ends up seeing this.

I know some general stuff, as my work involved having operational knowledge, but not enough to give advice that you’re looking for.

You can also pierce your ear drum with that thing (if something hits your elbow at the wrong moment) …about 12 years later and it’s almost as good as it was before it happened 😎😵

You’d think that’s the insurance companies would be greedy enough to sue oil companies for damages, you could probably try to make that case, but alas it’s easier to drain regular people dry and then fuck off.

Don’t worry, no poor people will be hurt by this decision, at least not more than they’re already hurting themselves by electing thieving bastards.

Same kind of people were getting the money anyway, so this is just rich not wanting the slightly less rich, but not smart enough to bribe lobby correctly, to get more money.

I have, what you may call “close ties” with one of those countries so “pretend” communism isn’t any better. (hint: most of my life wasn’t spent in the “west”)

Wouldn’t surprise me the least if these early retirements were all planned so that Dems get house control few months before elections, can’t accomplish anything with it because bunch of them are just as useless (double agents?) as republicunts, and republicunts get to blame all the inactivity over these two years on dems and everyone will eat it up

It’s maddening isn’t it, and probably not that different between US and Canada.

I don’t think you even need to go as far as China to see autoindustryasshattery in effect, just look at our Southern neighbors in Mexico who aren’t getting fair share on the produced vehicles while parent companies/dealerships reap profits, but that’s probably a different conversation altogether…I mean something is seriously fucking wrong when a car dealer is also one of the biggest grocery chains and god knows what else (that one is Canada, not US)

Hmm, it’s almost like we should focus considerably more on simple vehicles instead of complex subscription shit boxes that we have, to cut down cost of manufacturing/materials/parts/labour and now insurance…no big money in that though.

Or you know …public transport is also pretty damn good option over any of this. Something drastic would have to change for trains/buses/etc to become commonplace in NA though, at least in some EU countries and a few other countries in the world there’s a bit of hope.

If you used a script and it worked first time, and you haven’t already checked that the script didn’t toggle itself off, I’d start with that. Always had that thing happen to me with a custom script I added to VLC and had to remember to toggle it each time I started VLC
