That's why they're so interested in making Canada part of the US. His mom is Canadian. If Canada becomes part of the US he becomes a natural born US citizen and becomes eligible to run for president. And this is one of many reasons we cannot allow ourselves to become part of the US.

We're getting there. And once we're there we'll be busy collectively thinking up novel war crimes 🙂

In Ontario I've generally heard and used "Québécois" and don't really hear Quebecers often. Weird that the Montréal CityNews outlet is using Quebecers of all places.

In my mind Québécois is a sign of respect, while Quebecers is dismissive, and I can't explain why I think that way.

Is this from Time's Arrow Part 1?

Charlie Angus for PM!

He was stopped by reporters the day Freeland quit and the very first thing he said to them was "What the fuck is going on?!"

The internet, no, all of technology was a mistake. We made rocks think using lightning so we could make this?!

Well--well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

Huh, come on, you don't want to spend years learning to be a cmake guru?

California Über Alles!

 

(This is my first post sent from Sync, so hopefully I don't mess this up too badly...)

This might already exist, or might just generally be a stupid idea, but here we go:

I share images from Lemmy / Sync pretty frequently, primarily as direct images to Facebook Messenger. However, Messenger doesn't like WEBP files, and quite a few instances seem to be using WEBP instead of JPEG or PNG.

It'd be a time-saver (literally minutes a day!) and reduction of friction if there was an option to convert WEBP to JPEG on-the-fly when sharing. Right now I have to check the image format, and if it's a WEBP I need to download and edit / re-save before sharing.

I was going to say this would be a nice value-add for Ultra, but I'm already subscribed 🤷🏻‍♂️

I bet this issue doesn't actually affect that many users (stupid North America and its reliance on Facebook Messenger), but it does ever so slightly annoy me, so I figured might as well shoot my shot and make a feature request.

It's annoying enough that if Sync was OSS I would have submitted a PR already.

All that said: Sync is great and I'm so happy it was transposed from Reddit.
