I see things haven't changed ;)

Kobo readers are really neat, I've been using them for over a decade and I don't remember ever using a Rakuten account or even going online with them for anything but software updates or connecting to my local library system (which Kindle can't do). I use Calibre on the desktop to manage, convert and load my reader and that's it.

Please reassure me Roskapankki is still operating.

They're cutting a ton of good union jobs and offshoring as much as possible while being crazy profitable. This is so fucked up.

Those fines are ridiculously low, they should be based on a percentage of the company's net worth. I bet that puny amount will be treated as a business expense.

12+ years user, I nuked all my accounts when the 3rd party apps died. I still follow a few subs that have no replacement yet.

Those events right before summer reddit ensure its a smoldering pile of rotting compost.

Damn right, the real-estate bubble got started under Harper and kept going steadily under Trudeau, probably because so many politicians are also landlords or in cahoots with developers/investors (including the NDP).

Canada is eyes-deep into the "fuck you, I got mine" nightmare mentality across the entire political spectrum.

I still use The Old Reader online. Don't need more.

They could try paying people decent wages, which have been stagnating for 35 years. Maybe then they'll be more motivated to be more productive.

My Instant Pot. I'm the cook at home and it saves me so much time and food comes out so good I barely use my stovetop anymore. Same with the air fryer. Between both kitchen gadgets, I can make a tremendous meal for 4 in 30 minutes. It has saved me weeks!

It's a medium-size city in the middle of nowhere basically. The land is so flat you can watch your dog run away for three days. It's not a desirable place so it's cheap.
