How’s about never stop the boycott.

That was just the default that comes with iPhones. I am planning on getting another small nvme drive for one of my pi 5’s and hosting it there or maybe a small ssd.

Does Trump care about the farmers, when his billionaire buddies who own massive amounts of land to have businesses run the farms.

I think there is $1.39 going to apple for disk space that I do not use other than I think my pictures are saved to. I really need to get my self hosted Nextcloud finally figured out, and/or some self hosted picture thing. I decided to pay for some Canadian cloud host for Nextcloud but self hosting would probably be better for me.

What? I am in Canada and we are doing a buy Canadian.

Remove the “smart TV’s” from the internet all together.

I use wireguard and duckdns.org, instead of paying for a static IP (even though I am fairly sure my ISP turned the rotating off as the fibre connects have a static IP but I don’t have fibre yet). In my I past I had a very basic over the web TV package from my ISP but at the beginning of 2925 that was canncelled, talk about easiest cancel plan when they try to down grade me more to keep me in the package I just said no I do not pay for US channels I do not use. I had the TV package just in case something big was happening and I wanted to watch CBC or if there was a CFL game on. I just pay for Gem every month and TSN+ during the CFL season.

I have been telling myself I just need that one last part for my home theatre pi and then it will be ready for a while, but something is always preventing me from getting it or something did not work. I just need to get an NVMe drive now and then I will be ready for it, I think. I have a system set up with pi’s 2 pi 5’s each operate pihole among other things, but one of them also hosts my *arr apps and Jellyfin server. I have a pi 0 2 hosting wireguard so that I can watch my movies and shows away from my LAN. Trump’s 51st state thing broke me and I started sailing the high C’s again, no looking back but if you do not want to be like me set up pihole so when you go to a channels web app on a “smart TV” or a box you do not get bogged down with the same four ads.

But do support Canadian and pay for and watch CBC gem content. Not saying go crazy and watch the news all the time but they do have some great shows.

Maybe they can get the okie dokie from Health Canada.

What is this to encourage the few bell customers in Saskatchewan to switch to Sasktel?

Same I grew up in the sound of a dial up modem haunts me at night, but the 90’s music is different than what I think of as classic.

This appears to me to be like etransfer. I would love to see Canada do something similar to this but with etransfer.

Edit: so I have decided to start pushing companies to start excepting etransfers, I started with Skip I live in Saskatchewan so that is the only real big Canadian delivery system I could think of. Here is my email if anyone else wants to do it. I sent it to two email addresses that may work with skip as well as CBC market place. If people like my idea can we work together to push companies to do it?

Dear SkipTheDishes Team,

I am writing to urge SkipTheDishes to offer payment options that do not rely on U.S.-based credit card networks such as Visa and Mastercard, for example Interac e-Transfer as a practical alternative to cash.

An increasing number of Canadians are actively boycotting U.S. financial infrastructure, including Visa and Mastercard, due to concerns about data sovereignty, privacy, and the ongoing commercialization of consumer transaction data. These networks do far more than process payments; they extract, analyze, and resell transaction level data, often to advertisers and third parties, at the expense of both consumers and merchants.

While cash is sometimes suggested as an alternative, it is not a realistic or accessible solution for many people. Many Canadians do not regularly carry cash, and accessing it can be inconvenient or costly. In a digital-first service like food delivery, telling customers to “just use cash” effectively excludes those who are intentionally avoiding U.S. credit card networks while still needing a functional, modern payment method.

This issue is gaining international attention. In Europe, banks, governments, and businesses are actively working to reduce dependence on Visa and Mastercard, with initiatives such as the Wero digital wallet and broader efforts to reclaim payment sovereignty. These moves reflect a growing recognition that payment systems are not neutral infrastructure, but powerful data and economic control points.

As a Canadian company, SkipTheDishes has an opportunity to align with this shift by supporting Canadian, debit-based payment options like Interac e-Transfer. Doing so would respect consumer choice, reduce reliance on U.S. controlled intermediaries, and demonstrate leadership on privacy, data protection, and economic independence.

Providing a non–credit card payment option would make SkipTheDishes more accessible to customers participating in this boycott while reinforcing trust that customer data is not being unnecessarily monetized.

Thank you for your consideration. I hope SkipTheDishes will take this concern seriously and explore more privacy-respecting, Canada-centric payment options.

Sincerely, Reann Legge

Noooo…… lol

🤣 You wouldn’t have hurt this girls feelings, with my age and wisdom I am comfortably numb to that stuff!

I love CBC music but I hate that they call 90’s and early 2000’s classic rock or whatever they call it. Makes me feel old!

How to say Oh, Canada EH!

He is trying to grasp for air as the bodies are piling up around him, and the children’s bodies are coming out of the hiding spaces.

I saw a Guard the Leaf video about the Bad Bunny half time show today, where the guy talked about using Americans as someone who lives in the US is wrong there are two contents that make up North and South America. I will never call myself an American but I am from North America.

I am not paying for that Transphobic Right wing BS so I am not making that stuff.

I only know things from the Canadian side but I know passports can be given to you rather fast.

It has not been done like that because of how are system works and how it was founded, we can change it but pushing the bolder up hill with all the establishment designed to keep that bolder down is hard. I write letters complaining about things and trying to change things, I now currently have 3 projects going to push that bolder up the hill 4 if you count my many pleas to my MP to cross the floor. I would not count it but over all the times I have tried pushing that bolder I know that 3 may be a little much for me to take on, but hey I am going to keep working at it.
