  • Americans can still apply for refugee status. That agreement makes it so if you come to the US and Canada as a refugee from a third country, you can only apply for status in the first country you entered.

    US Citizens are still eligible for refugee status, assuming they meet the other criteria.

    If you're in the LGBTQI+ Community and need refugee status here, check the link below; https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/refugees/about-refugee-system/2slgbtqi-plus.html

    You'll also find support with the UNHCR (United Nations High Commission for Refugees) and the Rainbow Railroad.

  • “Otherwise, we are opening ourselves up to cronyism, corruption and economic inefficiency,” Hsu said. “We've seen them time and time again not being able to resist the urge of helping insiders, so I am wary to trust the government if, and when, they say that no influence will occur.”

    This is incredibly rich coming from the Ford Government.

  • Both, sorta.

    Art is a form of communication. It is up to the author/artist to ensure the message they want to convey is both clear and understood to their target audience.

    However, no matter how hard you try there will always be some who don't interpret it as intended. These typically fall outside of the target audience, but their interpretation is still valid.

    If the target audience still misinterprets, their interpretation is valid, but the artist did a poor job communicating their intention. This does not necessarily mean the art is bad though.

  • From what I can see that instance is just filled with people making crossposts from other instances.

  • How did GSP make a major difference to Canada exactly? That's my point. If you think I'm just shitting on him you're making a lot of assumptions based on the very short and concise post I made. Nothing there is shitting on him.

  • I just picked up FF7 Rebirth and Riders Republic during the sale. I've been enjoying them quite a bit. Otherwise my Deck is mostly used to play Dead Cells and PokeMMO.

  • I will never understand why we as a society admire athletes so much. GSP is a good guy, but worthy of the OOC? Maybe, but if it's based purely on his career in the UFC I think that's ridiculous.

  • My god you're right, X on its own does work.

    I've been using the Steam button this whole time since that's the hotkey shown in gaming mode.

  • As a chef of ~20 years, I completely understand and approve.

  • Steam Deck @sopuli.xyz

    How to disable Big Picture in Desktop Mode?

  • Ah yes, being in College and meeting with my garlic dealer was always such a highlight.

  • 135 Tyndall Ave, Toronto. As some graffiti I saw nearby said "King and Duff is mad rough".

    Move-in day I had what I'm fairly certain was a drug dealer got into a fight with me.

    The elevator license was about a year expired, so I refused to use it. Walking up 7 stories wasn't too big a deal, except that the stairwell was usually home to a few meth heads indulging in their habit.

    Frequently I would find homeless people sleeping in the halls outside my unit, often having to wake them up so I could get inside my own home.

    My roommate and I used to hang out on our balcony and look at the people below and try to guess whether they were drug addicts, prostitutes, or former patients from the mental health institution the government had shut down a few years prior (many ended up homeless).

    That doesn't even begin to touch on the bedbugs, roaches, and pigeon problems that building had, or the bi-weekly fire alarms.

    I got out of there within 6 months. Absolute hell. The area has a very large Tibetan population, and I do miss seeing the monks and prayer flags though.

  • Yes, on occasion. It's called Overtired/Overfatigue, and if it becomes a pattern it can lead to major health problems over time.

    Whenever I experience it I find reading a book helps to make me tired again. Just be careful you don't mess up your sleep schedule, it can take quite a while to readjust.

  • If you're familiar with docker you can have it up and running in ~5 mins.

  • I always hear this, but I've been using Nvidia with Linux since 2004 and have never had any issues.

  • I guess you were the one in the crowd who actually called 911. Good work!

  • Yeah, the admins messed up and let their ssl certs expire. I'm sure they're aware of the problem by now.

  • The entire cast of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Danny Devito may have decades of work under his belt, but he'll always be Frank Reynolds to me.

    That Blackberry movie that Glenn Howerton was in was decent, but I could not take Bald Dennis seriously.
