I've seen a lot of misandry on lemmy in the last weeks

Guessing you feel guilty that you your kids have no future?

As someone who was abused by a woman for 8 years I would say it goes both ways

Difference is nobody believed me nor cared

Are you in Canada? Fluance is a great local company

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I dunno, lived in BC for like 10 years now and I've never met a person that believes this is a good idea

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I read this several times and I don't know what your last sentence means

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

First I've heard of it. It just looks like minecraft. Why should I be interested in this?

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They think that the rest of canada steals all of alberta's money. They can't comprehend that corporations are robbing them, not ottawa. They think that alberta's oil belongs to alberta, not canada, but they also think they are entitled to the rest of canada such as the coastline.

I left alberta permanently and I'm so glad to be done with this toxic mindset. Brain rot.

I've gotten someone pregnant before with a condom so my experience is different than yours I guess ha

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I'm talking male birth control pills. Condoms aren't really effective enough to be birth control on their own

And the majority of my relatives in rural alberta are hoping it happens. White people who's grandparents risked it all for what we have today. We are on a really sad timeline.

 

I am not looking for software alternatives. Is the best method still to dual boot?

 

I'm deploying Frigate (camera NVR software) at work for our 100something security cams. We only buy Dell servers which is a shame because I would have probably went Supermicro in this instance. Anyway. I'm doing some research and it's really unclear to me what Dell server I should go with if I intend to install a GPU in it.

I'm thinking I'll probably go refurbished, like one generation or two old.

Should I go with a 4U server, and if I did, would that eliminate the need for a PCIe riser card?

Do I need a datacenter class GPU? I have read that many of the powerful consumer cards will simply be too large for the server case.

Right now I am testing with an R550 and there is only one available 8 pin on the power supply. How do I power a 12 pin on the GPU if all that is available?

 

I bought this truck used and it has aftermarket headlights I am fed up with. They look cool but constant issues with electronics and also the housing scratched so easily that it makes the truck look cheap.

Should I replace them with OEM or is there actually a good aftermarket option for headlights?

 

Just obtained my first ps2 and so far my gf and I like playing:

  • test drive eve of destruction

  • ssx tricky

  • lotr return of the king

  • the warriors

 

I'm probably just an asshole nobody wants to talk to, but I can hardly even get a reply text from anyone anymore. A couple people have told me that they are just feeling burnt out/depressed/etc and don't have even enough energy to answer a message anymore. But I've also had some long time friends just entirely ghost me in the last year as well with no explanation. It feels like I'm surrounded by NPCs. I've basically just stopped reaching out to anyone at this point. Outside of my work, literally the only people I talk to are my parents, sister, and my girlfriend. Everyone else seems dead inside. I used to have at least 10 people who I could call on a moments notice and all of those people are gone.

https://www.castanetkamloops.net/news/Kamloops/584219/Leader-of-upstart-provincial-party-visits-Kamloops-calls-for-end-to-Aboriginal-title-rights

A friend in kamloops was telling me that he's not sure he has a valid title on his property in the near future and this was the first I've heard about this. Did a little reading and I'm confused what to believe.

Would this actually change property rights in canada or is this just alarmist? Hear a lot of opinions claiming that messing with property rights is a slippery slope with unintended consequences even though this case is well intentioned.

Are owners right in thinking that their properties would be rendered unsellable? Why are owners saying they should stop paying property taxes now?

While it doesn't appear that the cowichan tribe is interested in booting people out of their homes, could they, if they wanted to? Who would be responsible for paying out those owners if anyone?

Why is cowichan band entitled to land in richmond, because they fished there 150 years ago? What about the band who lives there presently? My understanding is that the richmond location was the cowichan "summer village" and that they went back to the island during the colder months.

It feels like climate crisis in a way, where people are wanting change only until it personally affects them, and I can't help but see it with reconciliation too. I also wonder that if this could have the effect of undoing any progress so far on reconciliation. The average tim hortons canadian isn't going to fully grasp the situation and it's just going to result in racism I'm thinking, the more traction this gets.

 

At least here in vancouver, if you go to east hastings almost every single homeless person is either white or indigenous, despite the official data saying something different. I know why indigenous face these issues, but why so many white people? Is it because most of them originated in a rural area and moved here? The homeless demographic looks completely different than the demographic of the city itself.

Hop the border to seattle and it seems like homeless people are usually black or latino, which makes a lot more logical sense to me.

 

He mostly fixes domestic trucks but gets japanese cars sometimes too. He rarely takes jobs on euro cars.

Can you recommend a "professional" grade code scanner?

I want to buy this for him for xmas so hoping to not break my wallet too much here.

Any thoughts on the scanners on aliexpress etc? Not opposed to chinese stuff, just needs to be simple enough for an older guy to use and be up to date for most common newer vehicles.

He is pretty comfortable with using his android phone - could we get same functionality and save a bunch of money buying something that works with a smartphone instead of a tablet style scanner?

Canada here, btw, if that detail means anything.

 

After years of blowing past all signage I just tried to actually obey the 20km/h and then the 5km/h up the ramp to the drop off area.

20km/h on that straightaway feels comical and the folks behind me were visibly annoyed. The slowest I was able to drive up the ramp asking me to do 5km/h in first gear without stalling was 8km/h.

I would like to see someone at BC ferries demonstrate this being done and tell me with a straight face that 5km/h is reasonable

That's 3mph for you americans

Not sure the point of this but what car do i need to buy in order to remain complacent? Because my 400hp car cannot drive uphill at 5km/h

 

Like fresh farm duck eggs. Pepper's used to stock them but haven't seen them there in a bit
