Props to Rachel Gilmore for signal-boosting these links
Any Canadian connection to the worst acts the Trump administration is conducting should be brought to light and severed.
Some people just read a post title, upvote/downvote and move on without even looking at the image. (Some people includes me too sometimes)
Go and cry on your lumpy pillows, Mike...
Honestly the commercial craft beer scene is competitive in Canada. Everyone's jockeying for space on liquor store shelves. Great way to show unity while also getting to know some smaller local brewries.

There was a Québec games celebration event on Steam. I have a friend who makes games as both a hobby and also a living (freelancing contracts from a larger developer).

This is assuming you are expected by your council to clean it "thoroughly enough".
After you eat/drink the contents, a very quick rinse is all that's needed. Little stains aren't going to be bad for recycling.
If you've left it for a while and are worried, a simple but surefire way to clean out any significant gunk would be these steps:
- Make sure you have a strainer on your sink drain if your plumbing system is fragile.
- Fill every can or jar with water to near the top
- Wait 15 minutes
- pour out a can into the sink
- fill the can with a bit of water and shake the last bits out
- pour and lightly rinse the rest of the cans in the same way
- bin the gunk caught by the strainer.
On the high seas of memes, memes being stolen or remixed ups your "upload ratio". You should feel proud. (For you stealing this one, I will look the other way this time, leech 😅)
Yep, Lemmy is not engagement-driven in the same sense as other platforms. Thus, development doesn't necessarily have to distill itself into yet another short video slop sharing platform.
There are videos (youtube/peertube) linked here, but many are long-form analyses, news releases instead of vine-style memes.

From a layperson's POV, this will seem to require years of untangling the law to properly give LGBTQ+ people their due rights under the law that is in theory afforded to everyone. This is a setback for immediate protections, but my view is that this isn't necessarily bad in the long term, so long as corrective steps are taken to address the root issue.
UK law has been written and interpreted over hundreds of years with various historical understandings of personhood throughout that time. At one point basically only men were people, so laws were only referring to them. After the affirmation of women's rights and suffrage, should we have just said: women are "men" for every intent and purpose, and just not bothered to update the law and keep using "men" everywhere thereafter? It seems similar to me that tacking trans people's rights on by making the definitions more ambiguous is fine early on, but at some point should be codified better in law, to give equal right to trans men, trans women and non-binary folks as to cisgender folks. Ignoring the difference of gender vs. sex under the law entirely, would leave gaps in serving trans and nonbinary people's unmet needs as well. None of this will happen on its own, so allies of LGBTQ+ people ought to contact their MP to make it happen.
I'm not oblivious to the harm to both women and transgender people that this ruling will bring upon the UK, but it should spur on actually solving the issues on codifying gender and sex under the law, rather than relying on half-solutions or temporary solutions.
I'd happily be educated on this topic.
The Trump admin has been acting in bad faith and with wilful disregard towards justice in America for 86 days and counting.
Can we marshal Marshal Marshall yet, Marshall?

Update 1:
All components have been purchased and received. Date for installation has also been set for April 24th. Going to install two radios. The first will be pointing NxNE* with a 5db Omni, the second will be pointing SxSE towards Buffalo via yagi.
I went up last week and "scoped" out the location, we swept 900-930 to make sure we wouldn't be interfering with anything, luckily it was unused. :) The place is a mess btw.
I'll add a complete parts list once assembly and testing begins, as I'm sure I'll have to make some changes along the way. I'm still on the hunt for a UL certified enclosure.
The original plan was NxNW but there was simply no room to maneuver around the catwalk.
This date is dependent on receiving the Airframe cavity filters, I joined the preorder that is said to deliver in March.
Update 2:
It's time. I'll be installing the nodes on Wednesday April 16 at 1pm(ish). I'll send out a greeting on the default LongFast channel when they're live.
I had learned it from watching Carney's campaign speech, but here's the CBC write-up.
Key elements regarding America include upping resources for CBSA to stem the flow of illegal guns and drugs, having the RCMP classify new models of guns rather than manufacturers themselves, and increasing funding for RCMP ballistics labs to help trace the source of guns used in violent crime.

Take care, Stamets.💜 You will be missed.
Life, politics and all that is stressful. We have more activity now, which does bring a proportional number of jerks and assholes to the site. I don't know how anyone in a moderator position here can stay sane looking through a steady stream of reported vitriol without an occasional break, even if the majority of Lemmings are respectful, understanding and decent human beings.
Hope you find peace and serenity, and you'll always be welcome here or on another instance after a much-needed break for you.
Glad to see Canadians' actions having a tangible impact.
Some guy in the White House said the US doesn't need us or our stuff. Then fine, our money will be used to grow our own economy.
We talking about Inmate P01135809?
