They’ll ID you for simply buying a lighter, as dumb as it sounds, every 7-11 I’ve been to does this.

7-11 will quite literally scan the barcode on your ID / Driver’s licenses, wonder what kind of information they get from it.


The use of code block markdowns in lieu of quotation’s is mildly bothersome. They each have their intended purposes, but why use them incorrectly?

Oh I know, whenever he sends out an email for an update to the web-app I react with a “😢” in outlook every time because he’ll just push updates without having anyone test them.
This is not a software company at all, lately he decided to write his own PDF editor and switch out the one he found on GitHub for it, well the folks in the shop certainly weren’t happy to find out they couldn’t print drawings anymore or that mobile devices had poor compatibility with it.


The phrase “Family Doctor” has confused the living hell out of me growing up, I want to see a doctor, me myself and I, I am not signing up my family to see a doctor.
The many-month long waiting queue is not ideal either, I’ve given up trying to find a doctor and resorted to just going got the ER when things get worse.


I have been laughed out every time I’ve mentioned it for years.
I got approval from my managers and IT to install a Linux based OS on my work desktop, then a half-wit Windows-fanboy dev chimed in claiming our insurance would not cover the operating system if there were ever a security breach, data loss, etc. to say I was infuriated was an understatement.
All we use is a Web-App to accomplish our tasks, no in-house proprietary executables or anything along those lines, hell they claimed their Web-App wouldn’t work on Firefox browsers, which of course was a lie.


Still criminalizing nearly a million people, myself included, for property they’ve owned for decades, but sure let’s call him the perfect prime minister.


I remember Quebec trying to do the same thing back In 2007, they wanted their own identity and sovereignty and the rest of Canada shamed them for it, eventually the federal government gave in to their demands and here we are today.
Alberta wants to separate, the rest of Canada is shaming them, they’ll whine and complain until the federal government caves, which is what they’re doing with the pipeline deal.


Premier Danielle Smith: The leader of the separatist movement is a gun store owner, who strongly opposes Bill C21 and the governments use of the Order in Councils.
TheWalrus: Them pesky Russians!


Only game I care about from Microsoft is Halo Wars 2. Shame it got released as a UWP application.


I would hate that for whatever service that is for,
It’s the provincial governments authentication service for Canadians, if you ever used GCKey it’s essentially the same thing but provincial opposed to federal.
It allows ease of access to things like medical records, tax records, license renewals and such.
Alberta has their own system similar to this.
the only Google service I knowingly use is Youtube
Might I suggest Invidious as an alternative, you can host your own that way only 1 device on your network needs to contact YouTube directly or you can use one that is public.


I also know there is a script you can set up which will handle the initial contact to federate automatically.
I tried finding such a script but had no luck. I was able to export my subscription list from sh.itjust.works and imported it on my instance.
I had to unsubscribe and resubscribe to the communities I follow as I was experiencing the ‘Subscribe Pending’ issue but after a little while things seemed to start evening out and becoming a bit more stable.


My instance has been online for about a month, the supplied docker-compose.yaml was quite straightforward, had a little headache with Nginx but nothing overly complicated.
The long-con so to speak is federation, you have to subscribe to each community manually to begin federating with them, i have noticed timing issues with other instances such as Lemmy.world and have not been able to resolve them.


join the EU’s new system or create our own.
Tell that to the Government of British Columbia;




Redlib is great but has not seen a new release in over a year, the maintainer who took over the Libreddit project is clearly burnt out.
Suggest following this GitHub issue as folks have created forks of Redlib.


Excuse me? I want to use my .22Lr Kriss Vector that I purchased and got to use once before they bloody banned it. Why are you frustrated?
Also In my original comment i said rent, not purchase, have you ever been to a shooting range?


Always recommend folks getting their PAL, It’s a fun, but expensive hobby.


As a Canadian, it would be nice to be able to target shoot with larger calibers rifles. Can’t even rent a .50 BMG at the shooting range anymore because of our current government.
All in the name of public safety, eh.
That’s not too far fetched for our liberal government, Bill C21 and their use of Order In Councils to ban firearms that have been available for sale in this country since the 70’s.
All because someone who obtained firearms illegally, killed some cops in Nova Scotia and paraded around town dressed as one of the officer’s on a mass-killing spree, folks who are licensed firearms owners have to suffer the consequence of this numbskulls actions, makes complete sense.
