So we have via rail tickets booked for August and naturally I loaded the tickets in Apple Wallet… then a few days later I got an email saying the schedule was going to change and now I’ve gotten 2 new sets of tickets and I’m sick of adding and deleting tickets 🥸 I should be able to just use the same set of tickets regardless of what schedule changes but I’m annoyed at this process. If the time changes by 5 minutes and I need a whole new set of tickets? Gesus…

@grivettcarnac your QR code is the same if that helps.. but your seats, car, or worst case even train might change.

I can’t believe how pervasive Ring doorbells have become. (Never mind all the other brands out there.)

They’re everywhere.

I don’t like it.

@shawnhooper @casseagull my limited cameras are from unifi. All local storage which gives me peace of mind that I’m the only one looking. Lots of critters but there’s a shocking amount of traffic in my dead end laneway

I like how governments seem to be on the hook for all anti theft measures because automakers have completely failed consumers and, it seems, convinced everyone that it’s not their responsibility

Like these ghouls extract billions in subsidies, spy on their customers to the extent, apparently, of reporting on how much sex you’re having along with location and driving habits… but not the basics like remotely secure radio systems or even serial numbers.

Trying to decide whether I want to live in the kingdom of the apes, the empire of Godzilla and Kong, or Wicked City. What's your pick?

@annaleen I think about these sorts of questions a lot and a key thing is where has access to good olives and wine.

I wonder if there has been a time other than now when more of the NCC pathways along the Ottawa River (both sides) have had so many closures, other than during flooding and rehabilitation. It's kind of astounding how much of it is closed and detoured.

@casseagull barely accessible. The ottawa river paths near downtown are basically gone from my mental map. If the close Alexandria we’ll loose the river and gatineau from the east for a generation.

“… how that policy fits in their low-rise community.” Hahaha you live close to Algonquin college and a 2-story building just busts the great character of your community huh? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/proposed-rooming-house-discord-near-algonquin-college-a-sign-of-things-to-come-1.7204363

@grivettcarnac on a four lane divided highway (baseline). Facing a parking lot. Next to a two story house that looks exactly like the proposed building. On a huuuge lot. Near a university. People have lost their fucking minds about shitty suburbs and the reality of what they’re going to look like in 30 years.

@dairpo @grivettcarnac lol. This city. Baseline could have BRT tomorrow if the city cared. As-is it’ll never be
Built.

@johnefrancis @billionaireinsult and get the heirs in rotation. Such a long list. Too long a list.

Antivaxers have invented... vaccines by demanding raw milk from infected cows... They invented the most dangerous type of vaccine... What, why.

Recruiter desperation seems to be on the rise again, phone is ringing more often from recruiters who still have my resume floating around from when I last shared it 15+ years ago.

I went to have a look at LinkedIn after reading an article that "LinkedIn is the new Twitter", it's looking about the same as usual.

Firefox was struggling with it, AdNauseum was getting really excited about clicking a bunch of new ads that I don't see.

@johnefrancis Taylor swift reminded me you can put linked in into some deep sleep mode where it’s basically dead. Best thing ever.

A whole bunch of people in my organization have started using a huge font in their emails for accessibility reasons as if programs don't have built in font handling that make them more accessible for their users.

As someone with attention problems, I find it very hard to read for the opposite reason because it's too big and makes it hard to focus.

@casseagull default only fonts in email. I like HTML emails but I’m like this close to disabling html mode.

I see the liberals are racing ahead with fundamentally altering the CBC. Literally the first I hear of this was the other day when they appear concerned the CBC cares about truth, journalism, and protecting by democracy. Not sure what the plan is https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/media-expert-panel-future-cbc-radio-canada-1.7202765

So ads? "Canadians need a strong, innovative and independent public broadcaster that is ready to meet the challenges of this period of transformation and upheaval in news and content creation," St-Onge said in a media statement Monday.

Fire everyone and churn out unedited AI nonsense? - The panel will help her promote Canadian culture, stories, languages, artists and creators, "while adapting to our rapidly changing broadcast and digital landscape," she added.
