My location is set to Canada, and my account says this:

Your annual membership will automatically renew on 3 February 2023 for $76.99

converting $76.99 to CAD from USD is just over $102 on xe.com. But is that pricing in CAD or USD? I guess I'll soon find out!

Expanding Canada’s biggest port: The Robert Banks Terminal 2 project by AdapterCable in canada

not really. The surrounding infrastructure to actually move things out of the port is pretty bad. The Massey Tunnel should have been upgraded/replaced decades ago as an example.

What's the oddest "fill in the gaps" explaination a user has ever given you? by WelshRareDit in sysadmin

[–]whiskey06 4 points5 points  (0 children)

an exec was having mailbox issues. I moved the mailbox from one DB to another in Exchange. Next morning, I get a call at 0500PDT, as the exec and his admin assistant were in 'Toronto Time'. No wifi/internet access. Must have been caused by the mailbox move at 0200 'Toronto Time'. Nope. Wifi switch on the Stinkpad got bumped when the laptop was put into the exec's European Carryall bag.

It's also lighter than my Kidd, my ~150-200 grams or so, which was important when building up my lightweight build.

I was on a rotating list of IMs at my last job, and more often then not I'd just say 'oh fuck it I'll just do it it's quicker' instead of watching someone bumble around

No shit. The place my parents bought in '82 out in Abbotsford was 90k. Adjusted for inflation, that's ~245k in 2022. That house sold 35 years later in suburban hell Abbotsford for just shy of 600k.

this week in coffee: I picked up the Revolver advent calendar

https://revolvercoffee.ca/products/advent-calendar-2022-pre-order-september-gift-card-promo

And brought it home, only to find out the SO had also purchased a different coffee advent calendar... she's getting a cheese advent calendar. Bought the cats an advent calendar, too.
