LOL, wait another week for this to shake out and oil to hit $120/bbl.

Lists on Bluesky are a problem. Too many bogus ones.

Yep!

Line 1 still stuck at 21 train cars as reduced LRT service continues | CBC News OC Transpo says it's making progress on a solution that could allow it to get its full east-west light rail fleet back, though that has meant it hasn't increased the number of trains in service recent...

The forecast looks wet, so dress accordingly.

It was named for the White House cat: Operation Epic Furry. People keep spelling it wrong!

Conefest never ends in Ottawa, it goes on 24/365, but it does seem to increase over the summer months, so keep an eye out for more photos!

That does seem a bit crazy to me. You should really benefit from locally produced electricity and the lower cost from renewables! It would motivate more investment in that!

Well that broke my heart!

"Iran won't compete in Paralympics due to escalating conflict "Aboulfazl Khatibi, Iran's only athlete slated to compete in the 2026 Milan-Cortina Paralympics, won't make it to the event because he "cannot travel safely to Italy," the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) announced earlier today. The news came mere hours ahead of the opening ceremony — and just days into Israel and the U.S.'s ongoing offensive against Iran. Khatibi was originally scheduled to compete in two Para cross-country events. IPC president Andrew Parson said that his team worked with the Iranian National Paralympic Committee to find a safe way for Khatibi to make it to the Games, but "with the conflict ongoing across the Middle East, the risk to human life is too high."

Sadly not for Iran, though:

Yep, it really was! I think it was supposed to be humour, but missed the mark.

LOL, here where I live it is pure river water hydro!

That EV is looking pretty smart this week!!

Oh I agree, it is not unique to the Linux world, you see it in other areas of endeavour as well. A lot of people are just suspicious of any successes at all.

It's true. The one thing the Linux user world hates is distros being successful.

Good article and all worth saying. The only thing I would add is that a lot of the hate is because Ubuntu has done the one thing that is totally unpardonable in the Linux world: it has been a success.

Ubuntu Isn’t Perfect… But the Hate It Gets Is Over the Top Ubuntu may not be perfect, but the amount of hate it receives from Linux users is often exaggerated. Here's why the criticism deserves a rethink.

Yep, cleared drains is a priority! Ours are all done!

I will add that is a rare thing. We have breakdowns on one or more lines pretty much everyday.

Sorry, I missed "artisanal" there (LOL: Millennials....).

Yeah there seems to be quite a number of custom-made, gourmet, high-end curated marshmallows made in Canada, but no production marshmallows at all.

Yeah we may have to go that route and make our own.

It is kind of surprising to me that every brand of marshmallows here is "made in USA". You would think we could get some from any other country! Apparently Canada does not make any production-level marshmallows at all.
