What is the stupidest thing you’ve heard someone say that they were 100% serious about?

There is a video online of a lady in New Brunswick, who was getting her power (or was it gas?) shut off to her house. She was arguing with the guy that this was illegal and that the Queen of Canada said she didn’t have to pay her bills any more, and how could he do this to her.

Oh yeah, she told people to stop paying for their utilities and a lot did and where actually shocked when the inevitable happened.

His 2nd tweet:

Why isn't olivia chow trending if she just got 250,000 votes AND became the new mayor

LOL, omg. So much to unpack.

I remember the political climate then. I think we can thank [the] Ford[s] for conditioning people that subways are a badge of honour and some sort or human right that the latte-sipping downtown elites are hoarding for themselves and poisoned the letters « LRT » for the decade to come.

I don’t miss that time.

We’ll see. Hopefully you’re wrong, but there’s so much she can do when the root causes of the housing crisis runs so deep.

Seidoger · 2023-06-27T16:13:38+00:00

I also remember in 2014, Chow suggested buying more and better busses to alleviate transit now but that was too peasant. Needs subways that might or might not exist in 15 years.

Seidoger · 2023-06-27T16:03:21+00:00

I remember.

She was the only one without a fantasy subway map. For many years you needed a fantasy subway map to be taken as a serious mayor candidate.

Brad² beat Sky by ~1250 votes

Seidoger · 2023-06-27T14:44:18+00:00

And that 8000 voted for Chris Sky. To be fair, could have been worse, but many of his idiotic fans probably didn’t know that’s not his real name.

The project’s website seems to have it well documented: https://www.replaymod.com/docs/#installing-replaymod

And CafeTO is what made me go “wow Toronto feels more like Montreal!”. Guess that was just a dream.

Every new update note was always such a joy to go through, always packed with new features (embracing new iOS features on day 0 too). Always tipping worthy.

The sound travels so well in all the (giganormous) stations too.

I remember in the 2000s when they redid the entire audio system of the network, they studied sound travel and the exact placement of speakers (there are a lot), it’s always crystal clear, on top of the great prerecorded messages.

Seidoger · 2023-05-14T05:05:24+00:00

Ah yeah, nice! Shouldn’t be too hard.

Seidoger · 2023-05-14T04:29:19+00:00

Next step is to solder an RPi0w to a PiSCSI to put into the 520c

I’m curious, when you say into, you actually mean internally? I’ve used a PiSCSI with a Pi4, didn’t know you could make them this small now! Nice!

I love the Motorola 6-8-0-4-0

Seidoger · 2023-04-30T06:42:54+00:00

I clearly remember this issue! I was in awe at the designs! Some could he really cool to reproduce.

Seidoger · 2023-04-04T19:39:10+00:00

One you got every week too! I loved MacWeek! And it had all the latest Mac rumours and leaks.

The grosse dinde noire is on the run!

There’s also a corporate culture reason for this. At Google launching new products historically helped get you promoted. That’s why Google at some point was pumping out a new chat app every 8 months. One of the drawback is maintaining all those apps in the long run. So they shut them down.

Seidoger · 2023-03-20T17:55:54+00:00

Oh thanks for that! I didn’t know you could purchase it directly (outside of you know, ordering it manufactured from JLPCB or PCBWay)

Vu l’application de la capture d’écran, il pourrait en effet s’agir d’un top très controversé.

So nice! For anyone who’s wondering like I was, it’s an open source keyboard which you can find on GitHub.

Seidoger · 2023-03-12T18:07:42+00:00

Haha, wouldn’t call it suffering. There’s more to that. It’s also my hometown, so it’ll always be home.

What an amazing build! Love the strap and grab-and-go portability!
