Is this real? It has been twenty years since I moved away from Durham region but this dumpster fire of an ad does not surprise me at all.

Actually this is Durham region. A county near Toronto.
SirDankbud@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What actors/actresses make you immediately not want to make a movie/show?51·4 months agoJenna Ortega. For awhile I only saw her name in poor bastardizations of my favourite childhood media and it has soured me on her work entirely.

SirDankbud@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•This plant-stick spawned in my pot, what is it?3·5 months agoYup looks like unhealthy cannabis to me. If it was raspberry like another commenter mentioned, there would be some small thorns. I do not consider myself an expert, but I have worked with plants all my life and keep plant ID books handy.

Not sure why, but I feel like this is should be relevant to Americans these days.
SirDankbud@lemmy.cato World News@lemmy.world•Mexico threatens to escalate US gunmakers lawsuit with terror chargesEnglish4·6 months agoWhat about Canada? We barely ship any drugs or contraband south and yet 90% of the guns used in violent crime here come from the USA. Most of them come from states that aren’t even near the border. More Canadians have been killed by American arms than Americans could ever be killed by Canadian drugs. The problem is the USA wants to act like some paragon of justice while also encouraging instability in their neighbours and refusing to admit their addiction to guns is a cancer to all of civilized society.

SirDankbud@lemmy.cato politics @lemmy.world•Mexico and Canada say Trump will pause tariffs for one month11·7 months agoI literally just spent an extra hour doing my weekly grocery order to make damn sure not a single item was sourced or made by anything USA. Now that I’ve gone through that effort, I won’t be going back. I have no reason to believe Trump won’t change his mind on a whim like usual anyways. If we all do our part in this way, even the rich will feel some consequences from supporting this madman.

When you spread lies like these it hurts the credibility of the very real problems with Nintendo, like suing a supermarket or attacking the emulation community.

SirDankbud@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Admits To Cheating In Path Of Exile 2 And Diablo 4 Amid Fake Gamer ControversyEnglish1·7 months agoI don’t recall saying anything about even attempting to change his behaviour, anyone with half a brain knows that’s a lost cause. The point is being a thorn in his side. He clearly cares or he wouldn’t invest the time and money into these games.
SirDankbud@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Admits To Cheating In Path Of Exile 2 And Diablo 4 Amid Fake Gamer ControversyEnglish55·7 months agoThis goes against the TOS for both games. If you play either, I highly recommend flooding them with reports on that. It would be great to see him banned. He’ll probably just set up a new account and start again, but it’ll cost him and you know he’ll keep cheating so you can just rinse and repeat.
Ahh ok. There is actually a Durham City in the USA that often gets confused with Durham Region on the internet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durham,_North_Carolina
