The federal governmentโ€™s coming โ€œred tape reviewโ€ is bad news - CCPA At the beginning of July, Shafqat Ali, president of Canadaโ€™s Treasury Board, announced the launch of a โ€œred tape reviewโ€ of regulations across federal departments and agencies with regulatory responsi...

New from @policyalternatives.ca: The federal government is working on a "red tape review" of all federal regulations. History shows us what that meansโ€”cutting safety and environmental regulations to increase corporate profits.

Apple is delisting Wheels of Aurelia from the App Store, because it's... "obsolete". Our statement:

VICE's owner Savage Ventures has requested the removal of my Collective Shout articles. This is due to concerns about the controversial subject matterโ€”not journalistic complaints

Effective immediately, I will no longer contribute to Waypoint. I suggest letting VICE's owner know if this upsets you

Getting off US tech: a guide Iโ€™m in the process of dropping US tech services. Hereโ€™s how I did it, and options you should consider.

Silicon Valleyโ€™s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we canโ€™t depend on US tech companies.

For the past few months, Iโ€™ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

Also to the "as a Canadian" crowd before you clutch your pearls our Prime Minister is doing everything in his power to pass border security bills and remove taxes on US big tech to please Trump. Mark Carney is a collaborator with fascism, not a challenger.

What a lot of centrists dont realize is that a lot of us supported them to keep the GOP fascism dam from breaking, but now that the GOP is essentially ripping every institution apart in the name of fascism, there is very little incentive for us to support them over their more radical counter-parts.

more and more elements of the games industry are going to align themselves with gambling in the coming years, in a normalization of market failure. it is crucial to build a new paradigm for games and it must be ideologically opposed to this one. restructuring around gambling is anti-culture.

Look what happens when a service is delivered without profit and with massive government subsidies.

Doesn't seem that far from tariff on any digital item, however you'll be able to track that.

Why Iโ€™m getting off US tech At least as much as feasibly possible

Silicon Valleyโ€™s alliance with Donald Trump has brought me to my breaking point with US tech.

Iโ€™m going to keep pushing for governments to get serious about digital sovereignty, but in the meantime Iโ€™m looking for non-US alternatives โ€” and will have more on what Iโ€™ll be using instead soon.

It's from "The Five Star Stories". Model kits are awesome but definitely on the advance side.

Thinking about a cosy survival TTRPG where players work together to build a haven- plant gardens, crops, crafting gear and harvest materials. All of which are represented by cards.

Time is codified, and the challenges can just be generated from random tables, weather, etc or use a GM for quests.

Seriously folks if you're incriminating yourself online you're not being cool or edgy or bringing about the revolution, you're just putting people in danger.

Be smart.

screencap of a page of automotive sales and services with zero results for Unifor

The Canadian Labour Congress made a new website showing where to buy union (which is long overdue as it's really spotty all over Canada which unions post this kind of thing ... UFCW being a standout) and they, uhh, just didn't include Unifor?

Games Workshop is in the UK so its "only" 10% tariffs, just the packaging done in China. And with how much markup GW does I don't think anyone would notice. ;p Plus they are big enough start something up in the US if really needed.

Yeah Malifaux is a tough one, wonder where they get their stuff made. But UK is as close to miniature mecha as you get so there's plenty of other options, even discarding GW.

04.04.2025 08:39 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Many niche miniature companies have locally done casting and it's an easier sell to find local sources for packaging. Prob fine but for general rising costs and drop in consumer spending.
Mid-size ones that outsource to China or the big box of plastic minis boardgame are ones most at risk.

Some suggested Reaper, which could be with the owner looking to live in the US. Though not familiar with when/if they did 15mm. Other suggested it's from "Battle Valor" which I know nothing about.
