Canada@lemmy.ca•The NDP leadership race is a nail-biter. But is anyone paying attention?
1·10 days agoHow do you propose? Like he needs to have more of a worker/blue-collar vibe?
From what I’ve seen, he’s seemed fairly down-to-earth and I appreciate his passion. However, I know I am his target audience, so I’m genuinely curious as to what you (or anyone else reading this) think would make him more relatable to the common person.

Canada@lemmy.ca•The NDP leadership race is a nail-biter. But is anyone paying attention?
3·10 days agoYeah, I think that’s why the race is so tight. IMO Avi, while not representing unions in the same way that Rob Ashton is doing, is still speaking to a lot of the core of what the NDP was originally. You can have worker solidarity but if you don’t have community support, that doesn’t really work. Avi is calling for the gov to work with community organizers and unions, as well as calling for green alternatives, which I don’t think was a founding principle for the NDP but it is a huge issue that could help unite left leaning voters in Canada.

9·11 days agoMe, I’m paying attention. Avi seems like the only true leftist with a shot at winning. Rob is okay but he needs to drop the fossil fuel BS. Heather sucks and is a moderate and will only push the party further center. Tony and Tanille are precious but obviously don’t have a chance.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?
3·20 days agoProton for email. Tidal for music, though I don’t really support them or love their app so probably won’t be with them for long. Sleep with me podcast, a necessary sleep aid and I just like to support the person.
I subscribe to a couple of different artists/comedians too but that’s mostly because I can afford to and prefer to support people directly.For streaming: Crave because Canada, and they just earned every penny I’ve ever given them with Heated Rivalry. Just cancelled Netflix, but my partner still pays for Disney though I’m trying to get him to cancel that too. I think those are our only two streaming services.
I’ll be looking for a VPN this year so I can take to the seas again eventually but streaming from free websites is working well so far so I haven’t worried about it too much.

1·20 days agoWhat does paid bitwarden get you? Or do you just do it to support?

cats@lemmy.world•Do any of you actually call your cats by their names?
12·23 days agoOnly Elliot because he knows his name and runs over when you call him. Sometimes he goes by “not my cat” when I’m looking for my cat and he shows up. (He is my partner’s cat)
Sully knows her name but dgaf and only reacts when she’s in trouble and I bring out the big guns (Sullivan). She’s usually just “my little girl” or “my little angel” otherwise.
No I don’t have a favourite why do you ask
Firefox+ublock works for me

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My mom says that people who don't have "value" don't deserve to live and that "depression" is just an excuse for laziness. What's is your rebuttal for it?
9·27 days agoConfirmed. Tagged this person before, I’ve noticed they often comment about some fucked up shit their mom says. But they’re young and probably not able to escape it yet unfortunately :/
I had never heard this before but I love it.

Put it this way: you as a working class white person may need one box to see the game, but a working class black person needs two boxes (because they need to overcome poverty and systemic racism, while you only need to overcome poverty)
Nobody is denying the struggle of the working class, but working class white people (specifically cis men) need to recognize that other working class groups are also struggling the same struggle but dealing with additional issues of racism, misogyny, trans/homophobia, etc. at the same time.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you had to replace the floppy disk save symbol in software with a new symbol for saving what would you choose and why?
13·1 month agoWhat even is the point in changing it? Like sure we don’t use floppies anymore, but it’s a well established symbol for saving.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I don't think Gahan would mind a little of edit.
3·1 month agoLol I accidentally read the artist name as Galen Weston who, in case you’re not Canadian, is a billionaire piece of shit, so I was very confused for a minute.

As a Canadian trapped under the Big Three, scrolling through this thread is killing me :(
I have 130GB at 70CAD/mo. It was the cheapest plan I could get with data. I don’t need nearly that much. I use between 20-40GB/mo and that’s only because I don’t bother to turn on my WiFi since I know I’ll never reach my limit.
