  • Public restrooms in Osaka to get in-stall video screens with ads

    Jump

  • These will be destroyed in microseconds, and rightfully so.

    Toilet stalls are one of the most frequently vandalised things.

  • Fascists. They are fascists.

  • "reducing unnecessary Copilot entry points" in apps like Snipping Tool, Photos, Widgets, and Notepad.

    So not only are they admitting these were pointless additions, but their choice of words implies that other pointless Sloppilot entry points remain by choice.

    Something must be happening to make them alter course a bit, but it's not serious enough for them to commit to any major changes yet.

  • Most Americans would rather live in a big house in a car-based community than a small house in a walking-based community.

    Jump

  • Unsurprisingly, a large amount of people prefer the lifestyle they already have than one that is unknown to them.

  • Transport Canada wants your opinion on headlight glare

    Jump

  • Filled it out. I live in Vancouver which is rainy for a large part of the year. Driving in the dark in the rain with modern headlights glaring in my face makes it impossible to drive. That's not a hyperbole either; I've literally had to pull over and let cars pass because I could no longer see the road or road markings.

    US lifts sanctions on Iranian oil at sea in bid to ease supply pressures

  • Replaced Khamenei with Khamenei

    Khamenei replaced with Khamenei that hates the US even more because his entire family was killed.

  • This NDP MP believes ‘unapologetic socialism’ can revive the party

    Jump

  • Those sort of people would never vote for NDP anyway regardless of their party policies.

    YSK: Israel is ethnically cleansing Lebanon, and the mainstream media aren't covering it

    Jump

  • We're going to have a world war against the USA and Israel. It might not be today, tomorrow or even in a few years... but I feel like it's inevitable. They are rogue terrorist states and are responsible some of the most heinous war crimes in recorded history. They need to be stopped.

  • Dear allies of America, please don’t confuse our president with us

    Jump

  • Trump is a symptom of a sickness that has been brewing in the US for decades. The problems haven't started with him and they won't go away when he's gone. The US is a nation of shadow kings built on a foundation of slavery and slaughter. The pieces on the board have changed over the years but the game plays the same.

    A fight to restore the status quo is not going to bring the US's spurned ex-allies back.

  • Europe could offer to help Trump on Iran — if he backs Ukraine, Finland’s Stubb suggests

    Jump

  • No. Just... no.

    Nothing Trump says or does is trustworthy. He will put his signature on a deal and then break the terms in under 24 hours. It's also highly unlikely he will contribute more resources to helping fight a war against his master when his own stupid war is going so poorly.

  • TIL that in uber in certain countries you can select a driver that does not talk for people who prefer silent drives

    Jump

  • Check if any of your local cab companies has a trip calculator. A few of the ones near me do and they are quite handy for doing price comparisons with Uber/Lyft.

  • TIL that in uber in certain countries you can select a driver that does not talk for people who prefer silent drives

    Jump

  • It is currently only available to users of its luxury Uber Black services, costing the passenger extra.

    Leave it to venture capital to try to make profits off people wanting their driver to shut up.

    Uber has been rising their prices enough that now they are nearly at price parity with taxi cabs which, at least around where I live, are notorious for price gouging. At this point there is little reason pick Uber or Lyft.

    Currently passengers can use the app to rate conversational skills, so a driver wishing to increase his score may deliberately try to make small talk.

    That sounds bloody awful.

  • What slang term did you learn as a kid that is no longer in use?

    Jump

  • Most of the stuff that was said back when I was in school were slurs. Like nearly every spoken sentence contained at least one slur.

  • Canada Conservatives Want Chinese EVs Barred and Their Software Banned

    Jump

  • Chinese EVs will have a considerable market presence already by the time the Cons get another shot at government, even longer if they lose again.

    Canadians are desperate for affordable EVs so they're going to sell like a hot damn. What are the Cons going to do, tell a huge amount of vehicle owners and buyers in Canada to go to hell? Rhetorical question; of course they are.

    Additionally, this is just yet another Con move of trying to cosy up to the US and appease them and their market. Reading the room for even 5 seconds should make it very obvious that Canadians are not interested in that. The US boycott is still going like wildfire.

  • What’s worth more: Churchill or a woke badger? Welcome to Britain’s banknote culture war

    Jump

  • Imagine if these people had the emotional maturity to say they simply don't like something.

    They often remind me of very young children who stomp their feet and shout "this is so stupid" when something happens that they don't like or when they don't get their way. Now they're grown adults stomping their feet and shouting "this is woke!"

  • BuzzFeed Nearing Bankruptcy After Disastrous Turn Toward AI

  • Only two words I can think of to say to this: Fucking lmao.

    Wait I got two more: Good riddance.

  • Residents of #canada, would you be in favour of your province or territory abolishing annual clock changes and moving to a consistent, year round time?

  • I prefer earlier darkness in the evening.

  • I'm in BC and I'm glad we're not doing the changes again. That said, I do wish we stuck with standard time instead, but I'll get used to it.
