Bluerendar, to politics in Biden takes credit for Target grocery price cuts: 'They're answering the call'

Access to independent grocers/co-ops/etc is also not necessarily a given if you're not in the right areas. Mostly more remote areas without much local agriculture tbf, although there may be more I'm not thinking of.

Each one of them uses the Robellus network, and can only provide to some residential areas since that's what the CRTC can regulate.

Robellus charges them all the same price, which is why all of them have nearly identical plans - because fundamentally, they are. You get even worse technical service since Robellus controls that and they drag their feet on it (not customer service, that's often better).

CRTC has been increasingly toothless too on actually forcing competitive prices or service down. If you got recent fiber connection, you might be screwed as then there's a moratorium on Robellus being forced to share service, so you might end up with no third-party options for a while.

And if you're looking for a commercial zone connection, well, more likely than not RIP since CRTC doesn't regulate that, so you're stuck with whatever shit service at inflated prices Robellus offers.

Bluerendar, to politics in The Biden Campaign Has a Trump-Fatigue Problem

Trump isn't even doing the "tut-tut" but publicly egging Israel on.

If you are detained at foreign border security, unfortunately, you don't have guaranteed legal rights to a lawyer. They can unilaterally ask for statements, seize property given up for search, or deny entry on any grounds.

Bluerendar, to technology in The Cult of AI

And, the material it has to work with, which for AI, is gathered information

Bluerendar, to dnd in D&D and MTG designers, artists and producers lose jobs among over 1,000 Hasbro layoffs, former devs confirm

Those were probably the people who protested the most against pushing out faster releases, so I wouldn't hold my breath...

Bluerendar, to world in Nearly half of the Israeli munitions dropped on Gaza are imprecise ‘dumb bombs,’ US intelligence assessment finds

No, no, what you should read is that their use of guided ammo is no more accurate than dive-bombing. That is, either the "guided" munitions aren't that accurate, or the targeting data used is of that quality.

Bluerendar, to lemmyshitpost in the Perks of ownership...

I followed some arborist's ch on YT for a while and man, people really butcher trees when they don't know what they're doing. It's quite sad given how much a tree affects a property's price, I feel bad that you effectively got ripped off like that. I don't think many appraisers would know their shit either so that sorta thing is just being SoL I guess...

Bluerendar, to news in Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin dies in plane crash in Russia (ABC News YouTube link)

Yeah, absolutely bizarre that he made it out to Belarus with a sympathetic Lushenko, reportedly to Africa with Wagner having overthrown governments there, then returned to Russia ?!?

I do wonder if Putin guaranteed something - then Shoigu and Gerasimov finished him off, with or without Putin turning a blind eye. Surovikin did get removed relatively recently too.

Bluerendar, to fuckcars in Disneyland's parking structures (highlighted in red)

A quick check found some (admittedly dubious) stats claiming 71% of visitors are from in-country, presumably meaning 29% are not. Can't really be bothered to check further.

Anyone coming from out of country is probably flying, which is a significant amount. Anyone coming from the eastern half of the continent is probably too.

Bluerendar, to australia in News Corp using AI to produce 3,000 Australian local news stories a week

In all seriousness, given how much these AI tend to just make shit up that sounds vaguely believable, this is exactly the kind of thing that it is dangerous for.
