No, it's obviously the Matrix out to get you. /s

You asked a bad faith question, using a derogatory slur no less.

Not when it's about sitewide policies. (Like reddit banning "Luigi" etc)

What would be the reaction of the Canada King (Charles III is the king of Canada)?

Absolutely nothing. Maybe some strong words. He has no power.

The Commonwealth? NATO?

Tough to say. Getting actively involved in a war in North America would be very difficult logistically for the European countries or the Commonwealth, so I don't think there would be an immediate military reaction. Possibly a Ukraine-type situation where the NATO countries try to aid Canada with equipment as best as they can. But even that will be difficult across the Atlantic ocean, which the US can probably blockade. Local politics would be absolute chaos, with an ally that many countries have relied on suddenly turning enemy. With the US having military bases everywhere, they could also threaten countries into keeping out of the war. I think the situation would unfortunately be quite bleak for Canada.

There are totally still working dumb phones that use 4g. Just be prepared for giant buttons, as the target group is mostly elderly people.

It's pretty telling that you think these pictures would be triggering to me. I'm not a nationalist, I have no problem saying that the nazi regime was horrifying. I have no issue saying that the current government unconditionally supporting Israel is a bad thing either. I'd never pretend the place I live in is the best place ever, or morally superior. Can you do the same?

It's great to see discussions on Lemmy where both opposing viewpoints are upvoted. You definitely don't see that on reddit. Seems to be getting less common on Lemmy too though, unfortunately.

I often buy these for myself, as my workplace gives me a "bonus" credit card that can only be used at shops in the region.

I'd love to play it with my niece and nephew if the game had a split screen mode. Not going to happen if they need a Switch and a copy of the game each.

Is this the first AI generated movie or something?

I mean, we already have "Wish"...

My point is that when we learned to interact with technology like computers, we had to start at a much lower level, that naturally gave us a deeper understanding of the technology because it was required to use it. I learned the MSDOS command line when I was 6 years old, not because I wanted to learn about the technology, but because I wanted to play games on the computer. It just happened to give me a basic understanding about how a computer's file system works.

These days you don't have to worry about any of that, as technology is for the most part effortless to use and doesn't require any understanding below the surface. So naturally Gen Z people won't pick up the knowledge Millenials did, not because they're dumber, but because they don't have to.

Sounds like a very different situation to what I'm used to in Germany. I can get my e-bike repaired and serviced at small local shops without any issue. And probably 80% of e-bikes use Bosch motors and batteries (the rest mainly Shimano and Yamaha), so bike shops will be familiar with those.
