Had they served in the Second World War they might have had their gravestones paid for by the government of Canada, but at the time of the Spanish Civil war that government was rather ambivalent about fascism and certainly suspicious of those who would go off to fight it. The Foreign Enlistment Act of 1937 made it illegal to do so and many Mackenzie-Papineau veterans were blacklisted from service in the Canadian military. This law, still on the books, should also be applicable to those Canadians who now serve in the genocidal IDF, but it’s very unlikely it will be applied.

As of right now, these two men are hard to even find at Queens Park Cemetery. You have to count your way from the end of a row and look for a gap between graves. We’d like to change that. If you’ve got a few dollars to spare, consider helping us finally fund some gravestones for two people who fought the fascist menace and likely suffered the rest of their lives for it.

Great now we can get more boring shit.

Im so sad

yes

I think it would be best if the show was presented as a festival for podcasts with a string of live performances in a beautiful old theater. What you don’t tell the podcasters is these two will be in the wing loudly interrupting well you do technically tell them you just put it in the annoying small text at the bottom of the agreement they sign.

It is a terrible idea, but also a fantastic idea.

Genocide encodified into law.

Mesecons! They’re yellow, they’re conductive, and they’ll add a whole new dimension to Luanti’s gameplay.

Mesecons implements a ton of items related to digital circuitry, such as wires, buttons, lights, and even programmable controllers. Among other things, there are also pistons, solar panels, pressure plates, and note blocks.

Mesecons has a similar goal to Redstone in Minecraft, but works in its own way, with different rules and mechanics.

What ha? No!? Why would you think that? Also can I buy some of your blood?

Ok, so basically what you are saying is Android is “Open” in name only and that in practice it is functionally not open.

It will certainly be the indirect or direct cause of whatever kills me shrugs.

There is nothing free or open about Android, it only looks like it is when compared with iOS.

Ha well good thing I named my Defense Company that builds killer robots and brutally invasive spyware The One Ring. I was inspired by the power of the ring and think humanity can use it to do good!

The tech press is nearly worthless as anything other than a press release service for big tech and the rich techbros who own it.

Any cool tech publication worth their salt would have been writing articles about how cool Mastodon is not trying to help out their buds at Bluesky cash in on their investment by casting shade for no reason on Mastodon.

Yes?

I mean maybe if you got the exact right kind of kids together in just the right conditions it could happen, but ultimately that would speak to the extreme conditions of the experiment not some fundamental evil and violence inherent to humans.

I really dont agree with the whole conclusion of Lord Of The Flies, meh book.

Check out this article about when essentially a real life version of Lord Of The Flies happened and the kids did the exact opposite thing the kids do in Lord Of The Flies.

I fly helicopters and airplanes in battlefield type games on multiplayer servers on my steam deck framelocked at 40 fps and do fine, I play shooters all the time at that framerate. I think if you get used to a higher framerate your brain just must lose the capability to fill in the blanks or something, it really doesnt bother me too much.

My brain sees it like distortion in a quadcopter fpv goggle feed or something lol. The issue is really rapidly changing framerate, the acceleration and deceleration is disorienting.

I remember seeing someone play a Steam Deck in an airport awhile ago and the 3D game had a HORRIBLE frame rate.

To the person playing to their credit they didn’t seem bothered but I couldn’t look away for a couple of seconds it was so shockingly bad. It made me think that a lot of people may have not really had the importance of framerate explained to them and what the relevant numbers are (film is 25, 30 is generally minimum for games and 60 is best).

Almost by definition we aren’t going to know those people but that is because if you are here you are probably a nerd, so this is good for all those blindspots. No one deserves a poor framerate if they don’t have to, unless you are Mitch McConnell.
