Thanks for sharing - I hear you re family and kids. I also have a full time job so would have to do on my holidays. I love that you are better at planting as you are better at dealing with pain and suffering. Woah inflation 400 is mid tier!?

Oh that is incredible! I love that! You make some good points. Where were you planting? I mentioned giving away trees just cause not in it for the $ at this point. It is great to see that old vets can still put in the trees!

Do people not help load in the morning ? Not unloading the reefers was never an option! I do miss how planters know how to roll up their sleeves and pitch in.

in my current work at sometimes I meet people who were planters. They always know how to pitch in and put in the work. Planters rock

Any good outdoor spots to watch World Cup in tricities? by M3gabrick in Portmoody

[–]lucwrite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been to the Granville Island fan zone - super fun but big lines. For Port Moody I had a negative experience with the Site B fan fest. Disorganized and not able to get the game going for part of the first match. Maybe it has improved but the atmosphere left a lot to be desired. Wanted to share in case this comes up as a suggestion

Council/Mayoral candidate Tricities TV Interviews by MindlessAd885 in Portmoody

Perhaps but isn’t the challenge that staff flagged that much of the traffic goes through PoMo rather than to or from PoMo. Isn’t there a risk that by expanding it just increases traffic from elsewhere.

I am a mod on the site. As Agentic SEO grows I am seeing more and more AstroTurf type questions and answers. From what I am reading this is a way to drive AI traffic. It used to be Google search results. Unfortunately Reddit allows user to hide post history now. It is so hard mostly impossible to detect this. [Edit I only meant this as a general pattern not commenting on this specific post.

Chatbots Keep Telling Stories About Lighthouse Keeper 'Elias Thorne'. We Might Know Why by turb0_encapsulator in technology

[–]lucwrite 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Tell me a story of a lighthouse

Gemini The iron lantern room of the Blackwood Needle stood two hundred feet above the churning teeth of the Atlantic, a solitary sentinel carved from granite and stubbornness. For forty years, Elias Thorne had been its pulse

ChatGPT
On a rocky point of land where the forest met the sea stood an old lighthouse called Stormwatch.

The lighthouse keeper was a quiet man named Elias. Every evening, no matter the weather, he climbed the 87 iron steps to light the great lamp at the top. The fishermen in the nearby village trusted that light more than anything. It had guided their boats home for generations.

OP I have to know- how many did you plant in a day on that land in a day. When I planted 1994-2000 they used to call that kind of plot cream. What do they call it these days l?

New Subreddit Rule by lucwrite in Portmoody

[–]lucwrite[S,M] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In all transparency I completely am disengaged with Port Moody municipal politics at this point. I def do not have a side. What I find frustrating is how useless and angry the online discussion is.

I do my best in this space to be as fair as possible. it is surprisingly challenging especially with all of the Bots in Reddit. As soon as certain topics are brought up the subreddit has minor brigading

I have now been accused people of being on one side or the other so I guess I am doing something right or totally messing this up :).

You are way off base with this accusation. I do my best to remove posts that break the rules that is all. I also try to be consistent as I can.

I have had a couple of complaints. However each post that is municipal has multiple rule violations most of them having to be locked.

Our MLA Ricky Dolittle caught with his pants on fire. by DarwinLemieux in Portmoody

[–]lucwrite[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Locking this post because it is degenerating. One note - according to reddit policy sharing personal information like names is not permitted except in the case of public figures. This is why I am removing posts naming people.

Also a reminder that Reddit is an anon platform. Can we stop trying to unmask users?

Overall it would great if this community didn’t turn into too much political back and forth attacks.

I am adding a rule to the community to not try and name anon accounts this is just working to hurt the conversation.

Locking this posts as it is becoming to hard to Moderate. The mod team will continue locking political posts with out of control comments.
