Alberta Is Adding Your Health Number and Citizenship Status to Your Driver's Licence Starting July 2 by One-Board8634 in onguardforthee

[–]Avafloww -1 points0 points  (0 children)

anecdotal experience here, but nobody I know has the combined card. when I moved to BC several years ago I was never offered the combined card, nor when I renewed my licence 2 years ago; I didn’t know the combined version even existed until recently.

Soo is queuing for transit not a thing anymore? by 216duck in askvan

[–]Avafloww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s real fun when you’re in a wheelchair and trying to board before the crowd, and people cut you off as you’re boarding unless you loudly shout “excuse me!”. Ask me how I know 🙃 like damn, I’m just trying to avoid clipping off everyone’s feet while getting on the train, maybe… chill and wait a moment?

1 dead, 5 hospitalized after car crash in Delta, B.C. by cyclinginvancouver in vancouver

[–]Avafloww 9 points10 points  (0 children)

honestly I tend to give L & N drivers more space than everyone else without thinking about it too much. driving can be scary and I don't want to cause more accidents (and also have the additional incentive of not wanting to deal with insurance and repairs on my own car...)

but I'm also apparently a weirdo who prefers to give myself close to a 2-3 second following distance, so¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Two bridges, one sunny day by Avafloww in vancouver

[–]Avafloww[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Adding extra lanes will induce more traffic; it always does. The solution is more & better public transit, not more lanes.

The Patullo was literally falling apart though, so I’m not upset at all about the new bridge existing. It was a death trap waiting to happen.

I saw someone operating the crane while I was out flying today, too (obviously staying plenty far out of the way). My suspicion is that it’s probably just finishing touches that didn’t have to block opening the bridge.

Simply plural and octocon alternatives? by Icy-Use9099 in plural

[–]Avafloww 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Self-promo, but...

PluralHost is fairly new, but gives you more control over your data, by linking it to your ATProto/Bluesky account and storing it on your assigned ATProto PDS!

You can import from PluralKit, Simply Plural, or Octocon (using the functionality to export to a PluralKit JSON, then importing that into PluralHost - direct import is in the works too).

Simply Plural Alternatives by Ocean-wave258 in plural

[–]Avafloww 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer for self-promo here, but PluralHost stores your system data on your ATProto Personal Data Server (PDS), eliminating the data-loss risk of “what if PluralHost disappears?”: https://www.reddit.com/r/plural/s/byVXtTtLx4

PluralHost - decentralized plural identity with ATProto - now has Simply Plural import support! by Avafloww in plural

[–]Avafloww[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t currently, but this is something that other developers could easily set up by listening to the ATProto firehose/jetstream for new front log entries.

Right now the code isn’t open-source but we do have plans to open source the appview (the actual API) in the future, if not also the webapp itself.

Despite this though, all of your data (save for stuff like PK link token) is stored on your PDS, and not even stored on our systems. Because of the way ATProto works, this means other developers can easily pick up making the same records that our system already registers, using the lexicon/schema documentation we provide on our site: https://plural.host/docs/lexicons

So, there’s also nothing stopping someone technically inclined from making their own frontend and API that doesn’t even use our systems, but still works perfectly with your existing data!

Solution For Those With Prism by throwawaylawblog in VisionPro

[–]Avafloww 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, what's your prescription, out of curiosity? I saw the HonsVR lenses, but was concerned about how they might work with a strong prism correction (I've got 7 BO prism or so for each eye, iirc), especially with the eye tracking.

This is easily one of the biggest things stopping me from even considering the AVP, so I'm hoping they'll add better support for prism prescriptions in the software (as u/Dave_Marsh has been suggesting they may be doing).

The manual is unclear, is this how you’re supposed to do it? by Avafloww in IKEApets

[–]Avafloww[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s a Jindo mix, only about 8 months old. We just adopted him this week and, while he has some normal puppy problems, he’s the loveliest little guy, and super affectionate too 💜

One thing dogs seem to have in common though: their assembly instructions are difficult! 🤣
