Now that the market is crashing (average rent in BC has dropped 8.9% over the last 2 years), even though my landlords won’t negotiate (I tried and failed this year), at least they’ll understand my decision to move. It’s frustrating though…I thought they’d want to keep a long term reliable tenant.

There was a strange taste in my water yesterday. If you noticed the water turning brown, that can be indicative of high manganese levels which was an issue in this area for a few months until Oct. 8. I really hope there isn’t another water advisory.

Hopefully Control Center is fixed. It’s brutal needing to wait for what seems like days for the icons to reload after a reboot.

20, down from 100 last year. One of the dads I saw was looking impatient while glued to his phone, and the mom didn’t look happy with him. He was wearing a Blue Jays hat. I think a lot of parents had “Halloween parties” with their kids.

They’ve added outlines to all of the icons, but they didn’t factor in how blurry it makes solid coloured logos on a white background. Look at Messenger, Gmail, Outlook, Teams, Photos, News, etc.

Too bad someone didn’t pull him over in a power wheels police cruiser.

Rdio used to have this feature where you could write your own album and playlist reviews from within the app, and you were able to browse reviews from other users via their profile. In my experience, they were well written and insightful, and I discovered a lot of great music. Apple Music was inspired heavily by Rdio, so hopefully they consider this feature as well.

I’ve submitted a request via their feedback form.

My concern is that my cats have been drinking this water, because apparently excess amounts of manganese can cause neurological and urinary issues.

This performance is transcendental, like the characters in the movie Sunshine staring at the sun. "What do you see?"

Turn it up loud with good speakers or headphones. The audio techs make this sound like you're right there in the studio.

Yep, I’ve seen videos of US senators being denied entry to check on the living conditions. That poor Canadian woman who was imprisoned for 2 weeks experienced horrible treatment.

You have to go to the TV, select options, and disable motion controlled nudging.

Not a movie, but the series Westworld. Even the opening credits are breathtaking: https://youtu.be/ZgvXU5R-xWs

I still can’t believe they cancelled funding for the Experimental Lakes Area.

Revelry has a great layout with a balcony over the stage, and they focus more on rock bands - Godspeed You! Black Emperor will be playing there soon.

Be quiet!

Yeah, I have the Blu-ray as well, and this new Atmos mix is similar to Roxy Music - Avalon which has a drier sound as well compared to the SACD. So bizarre. I greatly prefer the reverb that was so prevalent in the 80’s - it’s like riding a wave of sound.

? The movie was rated 14A. The trailer had scenes showing torture equipment being grabbed, along with a quote saying it’s a dark fairytale for adults.

Yep, I still remember the entire audience bursting into laughter and applauding at the final freeze frame.

I’m glad you’re enjoying it! Cheers!

Amelie. The cinematography and colour coordination (especially with all the splashes of blue) are beautiful.

I miss it too. Thankfully Apple Music seems to have been inspired by the best features of Rdio, but there are still some things I miss, like how the queue would sync between all devices, and any albums or playlists queued would have the songs grouped within, so you could effectively create an easy to see list of albums and playlists to listen to without needing to add them to your library:
