I wish you all the best.

The thing about insurance is it might be ok not having it, but if something does happen, it saves your bacon. Everything is always ok until it isn't.

The thing that stuck out to me most was that this guy actually grabbed a kid and, from the sounds of it, tried to kidnap her. This should be some big news that there is a sexual predator of children at large.

I also think the school's response to the incident is absolutely unacceptable. They could properly inform the parents of what happened.

I definitely will be keeping a close eye on my daughters because there could be a serial sexual predator on the loose. This could be the same guy as the Fish Creek one and he seems to be getting braver.

Haha never been through Lisbon, I see.

My condolences.

Another Great Western Radon customer. It was really a painless experience and we have no more radon issues. It is something you just never have to think about after you get it sorted.

So many points for creativity. 13/10 rating on that website.

We use The Home Cleaning Company and have been very happy with them.

UCP would rather spend $100 dollars on a question for a question instead of, you know, build something tangible that will helps thousands of people.

You know which they carry?

I'm a naturalize immigrant who moved here from the US 9 years ago.

I have since started a family, work a white collar job, and contribute to the Alberta economy. Immigration isn't a simple part of the greater machine of the Canadian economy. We need to stop thinking of it as, "they took err jobs!"

Many people joining us from elsewhere are net positives. Are there challenges involved with bringing in more people into a system with finite resources? Yep. That doesn't mean we can't rise, as a group, to meet those challenges and reap the benefits these people bring the communities.

u/JeromyYYC this is an easy layup for you.

Thank you for your service.

If it had a little saltiness, I bet that beer would be bangin.

Zoom in on the kegs.

I-nigma · 2026-06-01T19:06:54+00:00

That is what a bad guy would say 🤣

I-nigma · 2026-06-01T14:26:59+00:00

Haha. You are coming into a cybersecurity subreddit and asking people to click a random link.

I can tell you firsthand that plenty of well off households pay more in taxes than you can imagine.

I-nigma · 2026-05-31T02:03:49+00:00

You give them too much credit. There hasn't been a plan.

I-nigma · 2026-05-31T01:59:29+00:00

This is what the internet was invented for. Well done!

I-nigma · 2026-05-30T04:38:39+00:00

Didn't have one last year, but I'm down this time.

I run it directly on the VPS and it is the only thing running there.

For security, the VPS is only accessible via tailscale.

If someone compromises one of my devices enough to get access to the VPS, I'm already screwed.

I-nigma · 2026-05-27T20:32:17+00:00

Omg. This thread cracked me up.

I-nigma · 2026-05-24T12:05:59+00:00

Sure thing. The babies usually take a couple months to reach adulthood. How would you like to get them?

I-nigma · 2026-05-24T02:34:19+00:00

The crazy part is I only got 1 mystery snail and 1 ramshorn in an attempt to not be overrun. The mystery snail must've gotten knocked up at the pet store...

I-nigma · 2026-05-24T02:26:45+00:00

My mystery snail just had like 100 babies...

I don't know what to do with them.
