  • Taking over abandoned(?) community?

    Jump

  • We have a specific community for requests like these: !communityrequests@lemmy.ca

    But we typically give the current mods 5 days to respond, and if we don't hear, then we can appoint you as a new mod.

    And just to be clear, you don't need to make another post on that community, it's just for future reference!

    So we will wait to see if any of the mods have any objections. Thanks!

  • Continuwuity v0.5.6

    Jump

  • Seconded. I believe I went Conduit → Conduwuit → Continuwuity. Very happy with it!

  • Lemmy needs more donations

  • for some context, there was a bug where the cookie wasn't being set properly. so it's likely you were logged in and the incorrect cookie value was set, and logging out and back in fixed it.

  • In this instance, to what extent is witch hunting against the rules (and what may be done about it)?

    Jump

  • Thanks, I've removed a few of the comments from that post.

  • sorry about the delayed response to this, but just to clear out any confusion, we (lemmy.ca) don't have our own app or apk to download. i'm guessing that you probably just added a home screen shortcut to our website possibly?

    anyways, as others have said, there's a bunch of different lemmy apps for android, there's a nice overview of them here, and you can filter by various things, etc: https://www.lemmyapps.com/

    i would recommend against any of the discontinued apps, however.

  • New & notable Winnipeg restaurants for early 2025 | Tourism Winnipeg

    Jump

  • i've heard good things about Isekai Ramen, and we will likely go check it out sometime soon. Also curious about Dave & Laverne's.

    Heard mixed reviews on Belle's, but at least we have another BBQ option here.

  • hey! thanks for the offer to help. feel free to offer to help mod any communities, and if there's any local communities here that look unmoderated, let us know! that would be a good start.

  • Is there a Fedican Friendica instance?

  • Canadian Muslims outraged as Quebec moves to ban religious symbols at schools, including hijab

    Jump

  • apparently, yes. crosses, anyways:

    The ban, meant to separate the state from religion, also outlaws Christian crosses, Jewish kippahs and Sikh turbans.

  • Bridges with matrix conduit

    Jump

  • i'm just guessing at this point, but if you send just the login command to the bot, it sounds like it should give you some options on how to login? what are the options it gives you in response, if anything? and have you tried any of them?

  • have you followed the instructions here?

    https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/python/telegram/authentication.html

    this section specifically mentions:

    Telegram officially discontinued registration from 3rd party clients as of 2023-02-18, so support for it was removed in v0.13.0 of the bridge. You should sign up using a mobile client and then log into the bridge.

    so not sure if that's the issue you're running into (the timing matches up, anyways).

    i've never used the telegram bridge myself, but i have other bridges running successfully.

  • Blackberry is a great movie. Love Baruchel and Howerton in their roles.

    Also enjoyed many Cronenberg and Villeneuve movies too.

  • Cube is fantastic. I like to rewatch it every now and then. The sequels, not as good, imo.

  • What are the Canadian shaving cream options?

    Jump

  • Mark Carney, who holds no seat, is being sworn in as Canada's 24th Prime Minister—By constitutional convention, a prime minister holds a seat in parliament… This is a dangerous precedent for the PMO.

    Jump

  • this is not the first time this has happened. John Turner was also appointed PM (after Pierre Trudeau stepped down) while not being an MP or senator. He also dissolved parliament 9 days after being sworn in, which is what Carney is likely to do too, I believe.

    not saying it right or wrong, just that it's happened before.

    How do I verify Lemmy on Mastodon? (and appears green link)

    Jump

  • Did Leonard Cohen ever cover the song Woke Up This Morning (Got Myself A Gun)?

    Jump

  • on the Sopranos wikipedia page it clearly says the theme song is by "Alamaba 3". Reading the article, it says:

    The show's opening theme is "Woke Up This Morning" (Chosen One Mix), written by, remixed and performed by British band Alabama 3.

    With no references of Cohen anywhere. So a good chunk of the internet is wrong. Thus why AI shows conflicting information too.
