How can we pressure Apple into releasing their source code? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml
[–] kinetix@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 years ago

You vote with your dollars, and if you care what Apple is doing, you tell them.

Buy a non-Apple system, write to Apple, and let them know why you're not longer purchasing Apple equipment.

It's really simple, if you want companies to change, you stop giving them money (and you tell them why if you're no longer doing so). Giving them money tells them they're doing everything just right.

Some issues with federation still - please bear with us (lemmy.ca)
 

Hey all,

If you've noticed that federated communities have stopped coming through to lemmy.ca, it's apparently due to known federation bugs that the Lemmy team is working on resolving for their 0.14 release.

However, after working through some logs today and posting to the Lemmy matrix chat, it sounds like they're going to push a 0.13.4 fix release (we're currently on 0.13.3) right away.

Stay tuned!

Imagine if these asshats got an overdone steak.

I hope these sorts of people are put in jail, stat.

/c/Canada got a new icon! (lemmy.ca)
 

I know, pretty lame announcement, but I figured it might be nice to have an announcement post that wasn't just 'I updated the lemmy code again today'.

Heh, enjoy!

Updated lemmy.ca again today (lemmy.ca)
 

We're on the new release 0.11.0 now - not sure why the frontend is showing "BE: unknown version", but we'll look in to that.

Updated the site today (lemmy.ca)
 

Howdy all,

Updated to lemmy 0.10.3 today, which contains some bugfixes and tweaks. Much has occurred on the back-end so mostly out of sight for regular users.

If you notice any issues, please drop me a line!

Recent concerns about the quality of Canadian butter could be linked to palm oil (www.ctvnews.ca)
 

I've found the same with butter over the past few years. I hope this gets backed up by other sources, but if true, it sounds like high time for better regulation of this industry - if they can't make profit from selling a pound of butter for $5 (which most seem to be priced higher than that now), then something is disastrously wrong.
