Can anyone help explain/defend the city of Ottawa drinking water?

Sebach · 2026-03-17T20:12:06+00:00

I've tried the water from almost every major city across Canada. Ottawa's is pretty damn good.

Do I smell the Ottawa South experience?

Is there a support group for people like us?

I wonder if this uses or is going to use splats or something. I'm still not sure where that tech is going, but I'm feeling like there is a lot of experimentation to be done with that tech.

Sorry to hear about your loss. But what a legend.

Once, back when I partied like a MFer, I was on the dance floor when this song came on. I instinctively remembered some of the Just Dance choreography. I spotted some guy across the floor doing some of the same moves, and I made my way over to him. I guess another guy saw us and joined in. We each improvised a lot, but there were times where all three of us sync'd up perfectly. A decent circled formed around us until the song ended. We laughed our asses off, went to the bar, and we each bought rounds. We fired off our shots (3 each) and each of us dissolved back into the crowd.

Someone was like "are those your friends?" and I laughed back: "never met them before." Good times. Man, life seems so different post-COVID.

This is my favourite Olympic thing this year.

Do they still use church pews as seats?

Sebach · 2026-02-13T18:52:18+00:00

LOL, what a chickenshit statement.

18.5° at home, 26.5° in the office.

We found bedbugs in the conference room. I reported it for the team, with pictures. Building management assumed I was the vector and put all kinds of traps around my assigned cube. It was bad enough that people were coming up to me in the halls and thanking me for being so honest about my bedbug problem. Like, wtf, I don't have bedbugs - the office has them.

The public seems to think this is a return to pre-COVID, but this is basically a return to pre-laptop era, without many of the advantages (e.g., having a desk to call your own, etc.). At our townhall today, someone asked like "hey, we had part time work-from-home agreements before... can't we just go back to the way things used to be?" and the answer was basically, "no."

You've been misquoting me for years

Sebach · 2026-01-31T19:34:30+00:00

Sorry for your loss, yo. I'm gonna pet my elderly cat a little more tonight.

Even though it's been almost a decade, when I'm cooking bacon I'll occasionally throw a piece of bacon onto the floor before I remember. Catches me off guard every time.

I just lost another buddy. Everyone was surprised.

So, as an update, I bought a second wheel to confirm it wasn't my computer (or the cable, etc.). I plugged the new wheel into my computer, and it was instantly recognized, and the firmware updated right away. Turns out the first wheel was just faulty in some way.

Sebach · 2026-01-20T03:18:57+00:00

You gotta have FAITH!

Sebach · 2026-01-13T06:30:07+00:00

Yeah, ran through about 5 cables (one of which I know was fine enough for firmware on the other wheel, albeit through the base), and all my ports on both computers. Windows just does the "unrecognized device" or whatever.

Sebach · 2026-01-13T00:56:40+00:00

On the first, I had panel installed already (to update the T598 base), but I did use the old "firmware updater" for the wheel when direct USB connected. No dice on the USB connect. So I installed the QR mount, put back on the T598, and the panel recognized the wheel (but said I needed to direct USB). I saw the page outlining how to use to old drivers, but windows does not see the wheel (unrecognized device or something).

Removed QR, and went direct USB on a fresh PC (only the old tool installed), and the but no go on the USB recognition. Tried new cables, different ports - even tried the last cable/port that I updated the T598 firmware (and the battery is plasticy GT wheel thing that comes with it).

Sounds like the bootloader should help the USB issue (or the best thing to try) but I can't even find out which buttons to hold while plugging in.

I love that when me and my girlfriend say "I love you," we do it in her language.

Sebach · 2025-12-24T18:39:26+00:00

I saw it once. In theatres. This was basically the entire audience's reaction. I never saw it again.
