MrGG@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you like for everyone to know about the type of job you have?5·1 year agoAh, TFWs. If you go by the news, neither big farms nor Tim Horton’s can survive without them. I’m glad you’re treated well. It pains me to think about how much exploitation is in the industry.
It’s a dream of mine (and a handful of friends) to start a commune / cooperative farming thing (closer to the hobby side of things) east of Toronto once we pool enough money, so insights into the industry are fascinating to me. And yeah, we know it’s going to be more work and recurring failures than we can possibly imagine (especially to start) but we’re determined and going to be diligent in research and preparation before we jump into it.
MrGG@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would you like for everyone to know about the type of job you have?5·1 year agoOof! Hello, fellow Ontarian here. I had no idea this was the case for Ontario farm workers! Is it common for people to be paid less than minimum wage and not get breaks? Is it just for specific times of year (ie harvesting) or for the entire growing season?
This may sound weird, but: thanks for the work you do in agriculture and feeding us! 😛 I’m in / from Toronto, and try to buy local when I can.

MrGG@lemmy.cato World News@lemmy.world•Canada’s population hits 41M months after breaking 40M thresholdEnglish15·1 year agoGood luck (I mean that sincerely). I’ve heard it’s not terribly easy to move here if you’re not a recognised refugee. There was a lot of “I’m moving to Canada if the trumpet plays” talk in 2016, but I don’t think it resulted in any significant increase in Americans moving here.
I will say, as a Canadian, I and a number of my friends are considering moving away from Canada if America goes full totalitarian (which is looking likely, if not this election then the next). It’s essentially America-lite here now, but with a higher cost of living and lower salaries. Most of us are thinking New Zealand or Ireland.
MrGG@lemmy.cato Programming@programming.dev•As a python developer, what language is the easiest and closest when it comes to building mobile apps?19·1 year agoThere’s actually a Python-based framework that can make mobile apps called Kivy, but as you might expect it would not be terribly performant.
I don’t believe that’s possible. I think at one point there was a way to disable all access to the history API, but I don’t believe that option exists anymore. Additionally, it would break a lot of websites.
Unfortunately I think this is probably a result of the way YouTube implements their “auto play next video” feature, and they are unlikely to change that.
An option might be using an alternative YouTube front-end, rather than using the YouTube site, but I don’t have a lot of experience with those. (other people on here do though)
No. The API is correctly named, but I can see how it could be misleading (and concerning!)
That API allows websites to programmatically go somewhere in your history. It can go forward, back, or to a specific point in your history, but it can’t see what that history is, it can only go back 3 pages back or forward 2 pages for example. It doesn’t actually know the history, it just navigates to those points in history. So Google isn’t going to know that you were on Pornhub 3 pages ago, for example.
MrGG@lemmy.cato World News@lemmy.world•Hostages were holding white cloth on stick when Israeli forces shot them, army saysEnglish6·2 years agoTo be fair, he is obligated to toe the line and regurgitate his talking points, otherwise the IDF might make him go to the front.
MrGG@lemmy.cato Games@sh.itjust.works•Dev behind massive Skyrim multiplayer mod turns their hands to Starfield, gives up because "this game is f***ing trash," uploads everything for someone else to finishEnglish52·2 years agoI’m in awe of how confident you are.
I’m still on IRC! There’s a raw simplicity to it that I appreciate. You don’t have to use a bloated Electron app to connect to a proprietary service, you can just go straight text on the protocol-level in terminal (if you’re nuts), and the protocol is open and simple enough to understand that you can easily make your own client even if you’re a lazy or mediocre dev.
So IRC, Lemmy, and I guess Instagram (if that counts)
MrGG@lemmy.cato General Discussion@lemmy.world•Am I crazy, or are Americans going insane?25·2 years agoEveryone is a friend until they’re not.
I am not blindly pro-anyone. I want everyone to be able to live in peace. I would give my life to save my Jewish (or Muslim) neighbours.
What I cannot abide is a massive online propaganda campaign orchestrated by a certain country’s military to try and sway world opinion in favour of a genocide they’re itching to commit in the name of self-defence. Now I’m not saying you’re definitely part of that, but all of the hallmarks are there.
Israelis deserve to live in peace, as do the Palestinians.
MrGG@lemmy.cato General Discussion@lemmy.world•Am I crazy, or are Americans going insane?304·2 years agoFriend, based on your comment history this just feels like a bait post so you can vigorously defend Israel some more.
