Forgive me, but the idea of working control surfaces in a game that literally has flying boxes (Cutter) & ships with thruster placement that would send them into uncontrolled spins in space, let alone atmosphere (Cutty), is something that has never excited me since concept. 🤷‍♂️

Great content tho! 👍

NDP is broke & actually at risk of defaulting on its loans last time I checked.

They are also leaderless & wouldn’t be able to adequately fundraise.

I think NDP members are going to be told to abstain or miss the vote, that way, they can say they didn’t support it.

He knows darn well that it will pass. NDP will abstain. They are broke & leaderless. There is no way the NDP want to force an election in the state they are in.

Canada already does this for people entering the country. Frankly, the headline is a bit disingenuous by implying it’s only a US thing.

When Truman redid the whole interior of the Whitehouse (basement included I think) & added the balcony (at his own expense), there was much gnashing of teeth (especially about the balcony that Reps & Archeological historians hated). Now, that balcony is iconic.
It’s only the wing if a building.

Furthermore, it’s these kind of instantly oppositional takes on change & expenditures that are the reason our own Prime Minister is living at Rideau Cottage & has no official residence. (And also why it certainly be a shitstorm once they decide what to do with 24 Sussex.)
October 23, 2025 at 8:05 PM
That is funny, but to be more objective on this than the OP, the White House has undergone myriad changes & renovations over the years & will undergo more in the years to come.

I am not a fan of Trump, but people are clutching their pearls just a bit too tightly on this one IMO.

The fact the boy was driving a car & trying to flee from police should be the major element of the headline, no?

These marches are the ones I avoid bc even if some issues are just, the event often gets highjacked by anarchists & crazies.

My comment was about the article’s lack of content or any depth & had little to do with policy.
I accept that we all have inherent biases, but sweeping comments serve little purpose in advancing any meaningful discussion.
That said, I sincerely hope you have a good day.

What a terribly superficial article with a completely misrepresentative headline.
There’s nothing in it aside from a rehash of decisions that have nothing to do with “progressives” aside from potential cuts to staffing, likely through attrition (not mentioned).

Don’t waste a free read on this one.

This afternoon, she said, after getting 57% support, that she would stay on, but a few hours is an eternity in politics.

This is ostensibly good news for the Ontario Liberals in light of Ms Crombie’s poor outing in the last election due to her lack of presence & poor leadership qualities.
September 14, 2025 at 9:24 PM
Huh. Just read that Ms Crombie has changed her mind & announced she will be resigning as leader of the party.

I think this is a good decision.

Now, it’s up to the party to put forward some strong options for new leader. People who have centrist ideas that can help Ontario grow & remain strong.
September 14, 2025 at 9:20 PM
What is more damning than the 57% vote of support was the fact that Ms Crombie & the Ontario Liberal Party seems to have run and hid from the press by cancelling their media availability instead being willing to face tough questions.

That is the definition of weak leadership IMO.

So, under current mandate (being reviewed):

The $20k tax is a misrepresentation by Poilievre of a charging infrastructure credit proposal that has no real fixed amount yet & is subject to confidential negotiations between companies & other actors

Oh, and hybrids count as EVs for current targets

Their stock photo was obvs from an article or source that had to do with a rodent getting into a bread bag. 😆
September 12, 2025 at 4:44 PM
Ha! Glad someone caught the problem with the stock bread photo in the first post.

Honest question for @chchnews.bsky.social … was it human error or did someone rely on AI to find an image to accompany the first post?

“Engagement” is the most artificial metric of Social Media platforms & chasing it is why articles & posts are too often inflammatory, faux, or clickbaity.

I curate my lists & read what interests me. People’s “takes” are very low priority for me.

(And yes, the irony of my post is not lost on me.)

Having pledged way back in Oct 2012, I have tested every single Star Citizen patch since the start.

So though I will continue to do so, I will definitely focus a bit more attention on NMS in light of where SC is at (& going) atm.
