The guy can’t read. It clearly says “satin”, as in bed sheets.

Any excuse to raise grocery prices.

But without the orange “charisma “.

Interesting. I got an email last week that purported to be from Google about requesting an MFA code to login. It looked legit but I wonder if it was using this same exploit.

My 3 day old bowl of custard has a thicker skin than Musk. Probably smells nicer too.

A lettuce probably has more leaves than her platform will have users.

I especially love Boston Pizza’s Hawaiian pizza with a sweet chilli drizzle on top. I can’t remember the name.

Nope but I can hope….

Would someone please have the guts to repeatedly tell him the truth and destroy the fantasy world he lives in. Everyone around him that keeps quiet is absolutely part of the problem.

I’m surprised Trump hasn’t slapped a tariff on the air that blows from Canada to the US. Damn those winds and that Canadian weather!!

 

While touring a bunch of hilly neighbourhoods, driving up and down tiny, steep hills with sharp corners, this question popped into my mind. Which is better for this kind of driving, a hybrid or a smallish (e.g. 1.5L) turbo 4 cylinder?

They both have low end torque, though the hybrid's torque may come on sooner. The hybrid also has regen braking that can reduce heat buildup in the brakes. The hybrid may be a bit heavier due to the battery and additional hardware.

Would steep inclines put a strain on the turbo and reduce its life span? I know nothing about car mechanicals, so I really don't know if that's possible or not.

The hybrid seems to make more sense. 🤷

Any thoughts?

 

I’m trying to set up a group so multiple users can share a folder. I created the group and a folder for it but I’m not what paths I should use for both. The result is that the user can see the group folder in the web UI but an error occurs after clicking on it:

“Failed to get directory listing: Unable to get directory contents"

Thanks

 

Does this trick actually work?

 

Bit of a long shot, but are there any in person ASL (sign language) courses in #barrhaven or perhaps south west #ottawa?

 

I’m considering picking up a cheapish laptop for development, with the intent of installing Linux on it. Typically it’ll be Java development or other stuff in docket containers. Is there a best chipset to pick for Linux or are they pretty much identical these days?

 

I was looking at browsers in the Play store and saw the Ghostery browser. It's now apparently based on Firefox, and I assume the Ghostery (plugin/extension) functionality is built in. Does it protect privacy better than other browsers and is it worth trying out? I currently use Firefox on android but I detest it's UI decisions. I've no idea if Ghostery has a different UI or not.

 

If I self host some kind of private video chat service, is the video data transferred direct from connected peer to peer? Does it go through the self hosted service instance? Or does that depend on which video server is used?
