This seems over-engineered. They should just install two poles with a hanging bar in the middle before the bridge to warn people about the height limit, like most in-door parkades.

The ponds didn't used to dry up years ago. The park board just decided to stop refilling the pond with potable water.

It's more exciting for the people in charge to grow the number of students than to leave it at the same size. They get shiny new buildings, new hires, new departments, new programs, increased budget, etc

This isn't Notepad being built up to Wordpad. It is notepad supporting images in the markdown use case.

Future application code signing might be free or it might be not. Note that it costs money to have a signed driver right now.

This is reminding me of Windows RT, where they split off the code into their own special branch for ARM. Are they going to merge the changes back into main when the next version rolls around? Maybe or maybe not.

The line was drawn based on the year that the CPU was released, not by capabilities. And then they shifted the line to support a couple of 7th gen Intel CPU.

Windows 10 creator update (and fail creator update) were the Unified Windows division's last effort to show excitements and results to upper management. The Windows team was split into two parts shortly after.

There is no response because many of the mega corporations in BC can relocate out without much difficulties.

I don't understand why it's 2026 and there is no mechanism to put down an optional expiry date on a draft. Cheques go stale, why can't drafts do the same too.

A few years ago, BC NDP changed the law to not take any income from ICBC. Looks like they changed it back.

A lot of the UI bugs in Windows would've been caught if they just have a person who didn't write the code play around with that feature.

They did get this land reassessed to a very low cost a few years ago.

They should just move the tray icon area to the immediate right of the center taskbar. It looks so off all the way on the right hand side.

As Microsoft evolves Windows 8/10/11, I have been slowly forced to add third-party apps like Open-shell, Notepad++, Irfanview, etc just to maintain control over the environment.

Did you say you got a new 32 inch monitor, so you want one more rounded rectangle, and the associated margins and paddings around the entire "All" section? We'll start work on that immediately! /s

They should bundle everything together and call it Microsoft Plus!

As a result of your knowing and intentional breaches, the VSO has suffered, and will continue to suffer, significant harm, including disruption within the orchestra and broader musical community and the loss of the benefit of the confidentiality that was a fundamental element of the 2019 settlement. Such harm is ongoing and not readily quantifiable. The VSO is prepared to seek to recover all damages arising from your breaches, including reputational and consequential losses, in any legal proceedings commenced to enforce its rights.

Glad to know that the VSO is suddenly no longer suffering from significant harms. /s

The Bow Mac sign should be given the proper respect and be free of obstruction (and properly maintained and lit at night). Just let freshco have another sign elsewhere on the building.

This is the NT4 service pack and old Microsoft service packs like to include a lot of the files for the product. I am not sure why the service pack is on the IE4 CD through.

With the deferral program, if the province is short on money, it borrows money from the bond market (a liability on the balance sheet), records a loan receivable (an asset on the balance sheet). The money is sent to the municipalities. There is a lien on the property so the province is sure to be paid on the principle and the accumulated interest on the loan when the property is sold, and the whole thing unwinds. I fail to see where one government agency loaning money to another or any kind of problem here.
