France is bacon.

Haha, that’s funny because we used it to pick up stations from the US!

My dad had the sports car VHS rewinder.

He also had a device that would turn the house antenna so that you could modify the reception you’re getting for the TV. I’ve never seen anyone else with a device that like that. The VHS rewinder just jogged my memory about it because they were next to each other.

I’m smashing that Retry button like there’s no tomorrow.

It’s also the fallacy of tolerance. Hard to care about someone dying who in turn would casually reject care for those who were suffering and dying.

You’d be surprised how much food an urban homestead can produce. And no, one person isn’t going to feed everybody on food stamps but like many things, if enough people start doing it then it becomes part of the culture. Imagine if houses had a little homestead instead of a grass lawn, especially in the front. Whole changes in culture could occur. For example, one of the best things about Halloween in my opinion is that the whole neighbourhood comes alive with people out and about. If people spent more time in their front yards doing gardening (and not noisy polluting lawn mowing) there’s be more interactions between people and places would feel more alive and safer. </rant>

I use the Thunder client. Looks like it tried to finish your joke because your comment was the last one.

Same thing with post titles on 🤮reddit.

One line scripts are usually ok fir chatgpt to produce but I don’t use it for anything larger anymore. I tried using it for programming, but found I couldn’t expand or maintain what it produced very easily and would save time by just doing it myself in the first place. Sometimes it’ll give me library suggestions that I hadn’t known about. Overall it’s been a slightly positive influence once you learn what it’s capable of and don’t believe that it’s just magic.

He came to my small town and did a show there. Huge highlight of my childhood. My sister got an autograph for me, but I lost it somewhere. Such a great show.

Canada supports extending an invitation to Ukraine to join NATO and ultimately granting it full membership, Canadian Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly said in Montreal, according to Ukrinform.

Not sure why this guy said Canada is standing in the way of membership.

He didn’t think that far ahead.

No, I think his leg got blown off.

Stay away from the summoner!

It’s been pretty awesome here in Calgary. Was getting worried there that ski season was going to be delayed. But I love a good snow dump to start winter. It sucks when it’s cold and icy but no snow to cover things up.

Probably sucks for anyone that has to commute right now though.

Go then. There are other elections than these.

Sorry, re-read The Gunslinger recently.

I was actually thinking about the Canadian election that is coming up.

I figured that something like that must already exist, but I had never heard of it. Probably why they’re not very effective.

Oh, and thanks for linking them. I’ll check it out and at least sign up for the newsletter.

Edit nevermind, the newsletter hasn’t had a release since December 2021.
