CBC must provide more local coverage, Senate committee urges
7h 54m ago in canada@lemmy.ca from www.cbc.caAlso why does all the responsibility fall on CBC to provide local news coverage? My municipal government doesn't know how to run a facebook page much less organize community events. My local police department won't share anything with anyone, including reporters and even the fire department acts like everything they do is top-secret for national security. Governments, police and other emergency responders are a public service, same as CBC is, and being open and accountable to their communities should be part of their role too. It's not just "public relations" it needs to be part of their actual duty and purpose. Dumping all the responsibility on CBC's shoulders feels like there's a lot of buck-passing going on. It shouldn't take veteran investigative journalists working all over the country just to figure out what is going in a community. This is a multifaceted problem and other organizations that work in our communities need to be held accountable too.

8h 1m ago in nostupidquestionsBecause we've been lied to and the whole food supply chain is rigged for a variety of complex and intertwined political reasons that make no sense and never did but served political purposes at various times. It's all fucked up, and that's on purpose, and that's the way they like it and as a reward for looking the other way, we get all the fresh fruits and vegetables we want at any time of year and if we have to tariff or bomb a few countries to make sure that happens then by god you'd better believe we will.

Looking for Playtesters - We're Building a Fast-Paced Pixel Strategy RPG
1d 1h ago in games from youtu.beGood luck! Seems pretty solid otherwise and I hope you guys get the attention you deserve!
Looks interesting, wishlisted, but some feedback (although I'm not sure the Youtube compression algorithm is doing you any favours) is that the pixel art looks a bit badly scaled and muddied at times, it looks somewhat better in the static screenshots, you may want to look at what scaling filter you're using though because when I hear "pixel art" in a game I'm expecting some pretty crispy sprites.
Edit: Also I think that's supposed to say "Tavern" in the video under "Mix races, classes, and skills to create unique warrior squads."
