I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Nice. The project looks interesting. I’ll follow it for a bit.

#Apple explains recent glitch that saw deleted photos appear on iPhones

https://mobilesyrup.com/2024/05/24/apple-explains-recent-glitch-that-saw-deleted-photos-appear-on-iphones/

As for the photos reappearing after a factory reset of the device, there is no confirmed case by Apple about this ever happening, so I wouldn’t take this claim seriously.

OK So probably klickbait. Please don’t hesitate to delete.

With Canada’s policy of keeping the borders wide open and allowing itself to be invaded, what do they need a military for?

The usual scaremongering, Russia is a threat. What they really mean is that they can’t be economically successful when we aren’t. The WEST says it’s a Free Market booster and welcomes commercial competition, but in reality we don’t, it’s all lip service. That’s why successful emerging powers like China, being an economic threat, must be made into a villain and therefore a military threat.

Luke Skywalker said it best, but he was a hologram at the time.

Sorry, but could you explain for this old geezer?

There is a cabal here on lemmy.ca that downvote each post of mine. Regardless of content or opinion. This is called brigading, and it was illegal on Reddit and supposedly here on lemmy.ca too. Ridiculous. This is an example of where I agree with the individual I’m responding to, who received 6 upvotes. Doesn’t bother me as much as it bothers the idiots who downvote. It won’t stop me from speaking truth to power.

I sometimes wonder why we don’t just establish a foreign legion like France, or at least permit foreigners to join as enlisted (not officer ranks) like other countries as a pathway to Canadian citizenship. The risk in active service is a far greater display of commitment to Canada than the average study permit holder, and expanding our recruitment pool to Francophone nations in Africa, and states in the Caribbean would at least help greatly in finding non-specialized enlisted.

I’ve thought the same — at least from the commonwealth. The US Marines do this, as do the UK Royal Marines. However, any Liberal government in Canada has a track record of underfunding and basic neglect of our military. It started with the Liberals in the late 60s when all service members wore the same uniform. We need to get rid of officers too — we’re far too heavy with top brass (generals).

Did everyone see the trio of TSN sportscasters that worked with him host a 15 minute memories of Darren yesterday? Actually brought me to tears on more than 1 occasion. He was loved even if he was politically incorrect at times. Appeared to have a large personality!

I’d be interested in this, but a link to a trailer is just…advertising.

Do you recognize how immature you sound? Or are you oblivious to that part of reality too?

Hey kid, you’re the one who mentioned his debating skill.

it’s only conservatives you see online constantly spewing FUD and hate speech.

That is complete nonsense — Both sides spew it. Extremism of any sort is evil. It happens on the left and the right.

Extend my apologies to Matt as you’re thinking deeper.

I dare you to debate him, but you know you’d lose. I just get so tired of drive by comments like yours, that are posted with so little thought.

is a bizarre twisting of things. The author is either ignorant of Canadian hate laws, while still choosing to report on them, or engaging in purposeful FUD for some reason.

Well, if hate is defined in Canadian Law, let’s stop making more laws about supposed harms. People need to be responsible for themselves and not have a nanny government telling us what is right. This is getting so ridiculous! Society takes generations to adapt to new customs.

This law is about the government regulating thought and speech. Not my government!

It’s the old geezers that don’t get it. Your irrelevance is nigh.

What don’t I get?

Why don’t you go and debate Matt then? For you young folks that don’t get it — The devil is always in the details. That’s why the law needs to be explicit and not open to loose interpretation. I’m worried about the bill because its intent is not child protection. Think a little deeper. Matt is a distinguished investigative reporter.

Not correct. It’s a human right regardless whether you believe it or not. https://www.un.org/en/chronicle/article/freedom-expression-fundamental-human-right#:~:text=Freedom of expression is a,Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Just because America doesn’t allow free speech on their social applications doesn’t make it right. Pull your head out of your arse. Yelling fire when there isn’t a fire isn’t an example of free speech you moron! We’re talking about political free speech.

Well, literal Nazis would be a good start.

The problem is that most of the blocking is simply because people don’t like the speech. This is a huge concern for any liberal democracy. Free speech is a right, and that means speech that one doesn’t necessarily like!

this guy is 100% committed to give nazis a platform, right?

I think you mean — speech you don’t like. Where do you draw the line?

it’s sometimes hard to remember there are people who take that view.

Many people have this view. Us on the Fedi are unique in that we don’t, or didn’t before the mass Twitter émigré occurred.

Afraid to learn something you didn’t before? Such a silly attitude!
