Again

If we wanted to destroy Canada, we’d invite him to be king. Now, go lose your war against Iran again!

Now check out my Q’s and Z’s.

Just ban smart glasses that work with US social media. Dual use ban, covers almost all use anyway and pokes a particular regime in the eye to irritate them.

Hi Claude, How do I test my backup fiber link so I won’t find out it’s down when the primary is cut?

Definitely configure swap, but I don’t think there is much benefit of a swap partition over a swap file these days and swap files are trivial to configure.

Bloor is always the example.

The problem when the bike lanes were put in, is that they kept the parking. So one person turning either direction blocks movement as there is no room left for turn lanes.

They blame the bike lanes, but no one blames street parking. The claim is that no parking will put companies out of business, but the same decision made gridlock traffic worse which is presumably worse for business.

Street parking never helps traffic, bike usage does. So tear out bike lanes? Genius.

I love their box handsoap! So convenient, buy it from Canadian Tire.

Will TACO Tuesday be the 1st or 8th? Or is he afraid of TACO due to lettuce, beef, and jalapenos?

That was always the endgame. No need to fight when one side is eager to defeat itself.

“To secure ourselves against defeat lies in our own hands, but the opportunity of defeating the enemy is provided by the enemy himself.”

Regime change is overdue.

I read it was Nutlick this time.

It’s pretty easy to tell you are in a room of people having fun and enjoying themselves. The last time I enjoyed going to a bar was in March of 2020. It is nothing like it was before. Prices are sky high, and the average bar is still relatively empty, in comparison dead, and the energy level is pretty non existent. The age mix skews much older than before.

For busy, packed bars that have lineup in the streets, the age is much lower, prices are even higher. After waiting in line, which feels absurd since there are so many empty bars even across the street, everyone seems most concerned with updating their social media allegedly having a good time. The DJ is there, music is loud, but the patrons aren’t.
So have a couple drinks, spend 100 bucks, and wake up with a headache. Yeah, it’s shit.

We are also in a pure surveillance state, everything we do is recorded so it is risky. What used to be a gaffe could be a career ending viral moment today.

Conversations with strangers is now the worst, complaining about rent, prices of everything, Trump, late stage capitalism, immigration , woke is destroying the world, libtards, investing in gold, or actually more enjoyable - an inebriated 60 year old with intentions, that constantly repeating themselves like an llm with 2 messages of context history. Until they finally make their move you see coming like a train wreck in slow motion.

And finally, the alcohol companies have lost control of the narrative, like tobacco, they spent heavily on funding studies that found alcohol has health benefits (in some amount) and rained legal threats on anyone saying what has been known for decades:

Alcohol consumption causes cancer.

This is in addition to what everyone has known forever, even moderate consumption often results in injury from falling or assault, get in a car - death (of other people), and while men don’t usually think about it, sexual assault.

It’s all a buzz kill.

I think they said cross border trips. That could also be business trips, though I think there are many deals that people find enticing. I just can’t handle how weird the vibe is there, completely unenjoyable. I used to extent nearly every trip few a few days or stay the weekend, but now I can’t get in and out fast enough.

My urologist cried this morning.

Not from sadness. From joy.

I held up my water glass and my urine sample side by side and she genuinely could not tell which was which.

“In thirty years,” she whispered, “I have never seen this.”

Here’s what people don’t understand about hydration: it is not a wellness trend. It is an ancient covenant. The Scythians tracked their warriors’ urine clarity the way NASA tracks orbital trajectories. Pale gold meant you fought. Yellow meant you rested. Anything darker and the shaman sent you home.

I wake up at an unspecified early hour. I drink water before I check my phone, before I speak to my family, before I acknowledge that the world exists.

My wife calls this “the ritual.” My kids call it “Dad’s weird thing.” My urologist calls it “clinically remarkable.”

The water goes in. Time passes. I look down.

Crystal. Absolute crystal.

Like someone filled a champagne flute with the concept of a mountain stream.

Some people chase peak performance through supplements, cold plunges, and motivational podcasts hosted by former Navy SEALs.

I chase it through my toilet bowl.

And every morning, the toilet bowl tells me I’m winning.

This looks like a power supply & cable story. Why someone would spend so much money on a GPU then skimp on the power supply, so dumb. Anyway.

Many children were murdered that day.

Terraform and Ansible. LLMs make Infra as code easy, and the best part is they can output beautiful Markdown and HTML documentation (use a CDN for the CSS).

Why would a company want this contract? Fun fact, it is owned by the Thomson family who inherinted the company, and the company is run by management consultants.
