I like to think it’s because they have fun keeping the toy away from you, the act of trying to get it away from them is part of the game!
God I love dogs.
Fuck close minded people, all my homies hate close minded people.

That’s completely fair and a good point that I hadn’t considered. There are a lot of idiots on the internet that would unironically say things a lot of others would only say sarcastically, so I get the need for the /s tag and I’m probably being too judgemental about people that don’t pick up on what I consider to be obvious sarcasm.
Thanks for sharing your point of view, I mean that genuinely! :)
It’s honestly impressive, most lemmings seem even worse than redditors at picking up sarcasm.
Fuck the /s tag, all my homies hate the /s tag
It would’ve cost you nothing to keep this to yourself.

For the cheaters? A feeling of superiority. For the people that make those cheats? Money from those losers, apparently enough to be worth the trouble sadly.
Looks like Android 4.0, back when new versions of mobile OS’ were exciting and so were the generational improvements with hardware.
Good times.
Best admin on lemmy. Thanks for all you do, this instance is by far the best!
Absolutely not. I will straight up abandon my account and move to a different instance if .ca federates with hexbear. There’s absolutely nothing good about federating with that shithole.
Edit: That being said, thanks for giving the .ca community the opportunity to share their opinions instead of making the decision yourself, even if you probably knew it wouldn’t be a popular option.
In a perfect world that would be great, but there’s enough people there that the tired overused jokes would be voted to the top just like on reddit IMO. Even the various astronomy sub’s are terrible for having tons of shitty jokes over actual information.
Trial and error, I feel your pain. I’ve learned a lot since switching and I’m loving it tbh!
Glad you got it figured out!
I’ve been using Bazzite for about 2 months now (daily driver for about a month and a half) and Lutris came preinstalled for me. I’ve had zero problems using it, I have battle.net games and EA app (fuck that app BTW) games installed and it just works for me.
Was it not preinstalled with your initial installation of Bazzite?
“You’re not that guy”
…
“Thank you!”

“I am that guy”
Even with federated bans, people like that will just find ways around it to continue making alts cause they have nothing better to do with their sad lives. Just like the obvious hexbear alts on different instances these days, losers gonna loser unfortunately.
Much harder to stop them without making it too difficult for real users than it is for them to just keep making alts to spread whatever flavour of bullshit they want.
r/canada is a complete and utter shithole, don’t base your opinion of Canada off that sub cause I’d be shocked if more than a 1/3rd of regular commenters/posters are actually Canadian. Unpopular opinion on Lemmy, but I still use reddit daily on my pc so I can block ads and use RES with old reddit. 99% of the time I just browse by my subscribed subs which are all niche stuff that hasn’t yet made its way to Lemmy, but when I do dare to venture to r/all, I can feel my brain cells committing suicide.
Anyways, I’ve been subbed to r/canada since 2015 when I first started using that website and the massive increase in right wing propaganda is very noticeable. If a non-Canadian looked at that sub, they’d think Canada was a mostly right leaning country, when the opposite is true. If the left vote wasn’t split between people holding their noses and voting for the Liberals, and those voting for the NDP (my preferred party for 14 years now) then the tories would never win another election for a long time.
I’m 30 and born and raised in Canada. I can count the amount of right-wingers I’ve met on 2 hands. Most people I’ve met are friendly and accepting of people, although the rise in brainwashing from “conspiracies” is sadly increasing the amount of right-wingers. It also doesn’t help that the TFW (temporary foreign worker) program is being abused to fucking hell by shitty, greedy corporations and that’s starting to slowly turn people against immigrants. Even as a very left wing person, I’m getting annoyed at how many companies exclusively hire TFW’s in jobs that used to go to high school kids and young people in general. Why hire a teen that has a complicated schedule with school and just generally being a teen, when you can hire a TFW that depends on your pathetically small pay cheque to make ends meet?
I’ve been working with immigrants since I got my first job 17 years ago, and I can count on one hand the amount of shitty immigrants I’ve met. There are far more “natural born” assholes than there are immigrants, it’s not even a comparison. 99% of the immigrants I’ve met are awesome and hard working people that Canada is lucky to have. But companies are 100% abusing the shit out of it to suppress wages, and landlords are absolutely loving the shortage of housing due to our insane population growth. My rent went from $1800 a month in 2017 for a decent, well maintained 3 bedroom in a nice neighbourhood, to $2800 in 2022 for a complete shithole 3 bedroom in a sketchy neighbourhood.
People are rightfully frustrated with the state of Canada, but unfortunately that leads to a lot of brain dead morons blaming immigrants rather than the government that’s happily serving the corporate and landlord classes at the working classes expense.
I know the last half of my post makes me sound like I’m against immigrants, but I’m absolutely not. Like I said, I’ve met far more shitty “natural born” Canadians than I have immigrants. I’m always happy for more good people to come to Canada and help to make our country better and more diverse. I’m just against greedy assholes abusing immigrants for profit at the expense of the common Canadian. Wages are being suppressed and rent is being artificially inflated because of the government caring more about keeping a good stock of wage slaves to support the boomers retirement. Trudeau even straight up said “house prices must remain stable” because god forbid the fucking boomers lose a bit of their net worth by reigning in housing prices.
The average Canadian is just getting bent over and fucked by the greedy owner class and I’m fucking sick of it, but the NDP have basically zero chance to win unfortunately and they’re the only ones that would actually help the average Canadian.
When I was a kid growing up in small town Canada, “swamp water” was all the fountain drinks mixed into one cup. Thought it was delicious when I was 10!
That’s the thing that people who want flavour bans don’t get, it helps people quit cigarettes cause it tastes good and gives you your nicotine. Yes it’s more appealing to kids as well but if flavours get banned then more kids will just start picking up cigarettes again cause they’re dumb kids(I was one too, no shade) and want to look and feel cool, and if their friends are doing it then there’s a good chance they will too.
Idk what the solution is but banning flavours is just gonna push people back to actual tobacco which is absolutely worse than vapes. Kids are gonna use nicotine no matter how much or a fuss people make or how hard you regulate it, a flavour ban isn’t gonna make things any better and will piss off a lot of people that aren’t kids, including me.
Fuck off and let me poison my lungs with fruity vapour if I want, that’s basically my retirement plan at this point anyways is lung cancer or liver failure.
IMO it’s making fun of how there’s no solid definition of “woke” at least from the right wing perspective. Ask a 100 tories what woke means and you’ll get 100 different answers. It means whatever they want it to mean.
