More couples are choosing a ‘dual income, no kids’ lifestyle
  • I already have two kids. Is it too late to adopt this lifestyle?

  • Just 15% of Canadians got updated COVID vaccines this fall, new figures show
  • Alberta here. I had no problem walking in to the local pharmacy and getting my COVID booster and flu shot.

    Of course, my province probably has the lowest vaccination rate in the country so there is that.

  • Oklahoma education leader claims church/state separation is "state-sponsored atheism"
  • "These demands inappropriately tell school districts to place atheism as the state religion. Thankfully, the activists' arguments are misguided and outdated."

    Atheism isn't a religious belief. In fact, it is the absence of a religious belief that makes one an atheist.

    It seems this guy is misguided and his views are outdated.

  • I have a seedbox, now what?
  • For day to day use I generally grab anything that I am interested in and leave it seeding indefinitely, or until I need to prune to free up some space.

    If I need to boost ratio I grab something that is new and hot to seed for a bit. In general though, I try to seed things that have lower seeder counts so that they remain available. Many times these are not things that I am really interested in.

    If you are not using any private trackers then I suggest you get on one and just be active. If there is a particular thing you are interested in then there is probably a tracker for it.

    I also seed Linux ISOs but those are public so it doesn't help when it comes to ratio or anything. It's just a thing that I do because I can.

  • The top 6 best TV shows based on games
  • I recently watched Twisted Metal and it was pretty darn good. Who doesn't love cars with guns?

  • Webcam in Kelowna pointed towards the west. Watch the fire creep down the hill towards the city
  • I'm in Alberta. Our UCP overlords are still investigating the serial arsonists that are starting all these fires. FFS, how can we have even a modicum of hope that we can do anything with meatballs like that in charge?

  • Meta to end news access in Canada over publisher payment law (The Guardian)
  • I was thinking this as well. If people won't click past the headlines then we are truly doomed.

    I do think news not being on social media might not be a bad thing. I guess we'll have to see how it plays out.

  • Meta to end news access in Canada over publisher payment law (The Guardian)
  • This is such a BS law. It should be framed as paying for headlines, not news.

    I have no love for Meta but I have to side with them on this one. This law makes no sense. People post headlines on social media and users click on those to go to the news outlet and read the article. In the end, the news outlet still gets the advertising revenue and the visits to their site.

  • How does Mastodon work?
  • That is a good way to explain it. Well done.

  • Critically Acclaimed PlayStation Exclusive Struggling on PC
  • I saw right of the bat that people were having problems with the game crashing often. I want it but for $90 I'll wait until it's patched.

  • Nike announces it will permanently end sponsorship of Hockey Canada | CBC News
  • Unsealed court documents last year revealed London police said they had reasonable grounds to accuse five world junior players of sexual assault.

    I would love to know who these five players are. They need to be held accountable.

  • Xbox Games with Gold ending, replaced by Game Pass Core
  • I read somewhere that the base game pass for console doesn't include online multiplayer. That seems weird but might explain why the price is close to gold.

  • Canada excluded from Google's expansion of AI chatbot Bard
  • I see no problem with this.

  • F1 Vods?
  • I tried for a long time to find reliable sources for the races and kept hitting a wall. Any sources I did find didn't last or were unreliable. I eventually gave up looking.

    I finally bought F1 TV Pro and don't regret it one bit. The stream quality is great and being able to switch cameras whenever I want is a huge feature. The value added features are why I will continue to pay for it.

  • DRM removal tool was taken down from github. If you can, please download it from gitlab before its taken down too
  • Yeah. I tried to grab the binaries which are on GitHub of course.

  • DRM removal tool was taken down from github. If you can, please download it from gitlab before its taken down too
  • I went to the releases page which links to GitHub. I will clone the repo instead.

  • DRM removal tool was taken down from github. If you can, please download it from gitlab before its taken down too
  • Already taken down. I tried to grab a copy but wasn't fast enough.

  • Right-wing misinformers and bad actors have already earned tens of thousands of dollars under Twitter’s new ad revenue sharing program
  • Lol. I was wondering if that was what you meant. I decided to go with it anyway. Anyway, we are all better off without Twitter.

  • Silent Hill: Ascension's proposed voting system makes it feel like a bizarre mass social experiment
  • Gaming by committee. How bad can it be? I guess we'll find out.

  • A Reddit User Admitted To Pirating a Movie 12 Years Ago. Movie Studios Want To Unmask Him.
  • Yup. They will use the fact that a user said they pirated a movie as a starting point. If Reddit capitulated and handed over the user info that could be used to hunt for more evidence and possibly connect them to other pirates. It would open a juicy can of worms for these bottom feeders. Good on Reddit for standing up for their users.
